Justin Hawkes (fka. Flite) - Tragedy, Humanity

[@UKFDrumandBass]

Spoiler alert: Things are about to get very UKF10 on this channel. We'll upload one track from the album daily until Friday, with more to come over the next few weeks... With that said, we're proud to kickstart this week with Flite's phenomenal Tragedy, Humanity: a deep and personal contribution to our album, it showcases where Flite is at this exact moment in time. We took a moment last week to sit down with him to talk about this track, the RL Grime bootleg and much more... keep an eye out for the feature on our social channels in the coming days.

Upload Cyantific's song please

[@t00nvisi0ndub]

Awesome! Can't wait for more!

[@TimSter15]

I can definitely tell this track encapsulates Flite in his journey atm as a person and as an artist. Very thoughtful, insightful track. Not heard such a track in years.

[@SonicPimpTX]

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrap!!

[@JustinHawkes]

Often I think to myself , "How did we get here? Right now. And where are we meant to go?". Sometimes I wonder if we realize our trajectory, the beauty which we pass by so comfortably and regard as permanent, dissolving slowly in front of us. Our caution-less use of time, as if it were unlimited. Our part of this earth and universe, and our collective curse on it. Is Tragedy innate to being human? Are we the Tragedy upon mother Earth? The past serves as a reminder to the future, should we pay attention, and a revelation towards our progress as a people. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves exactly where we came from. Much love everyone, especially UKF, who I discovered Drum & Bass through exactly ten years ago when I was 15. It's such a fantastic pleasure to feel part of the movement that once inspired me to start producing music. What a great way to end the decade. Love you all

amazing music man! been a fan ever since hearing Dive and Colorless, The wind will carry you. Keep doing what you're doing! ✌

[@xPuReZHD]

Deep meaning and purpose towards this track, I have a similar mindset towards these questions you've asked aswell, big ups Justin!

[@OGMehrin]

honestly a masterpiece this song, should be proud of yourself my dude

[@David-nx1gs]

Well said

[@LanLingPeng]

It’s not just a song, ITS A WHOLE THEORY OF TRAGEDY

[@RB-mj7mp]

Flite definitely deserves more recognition. He's one of the first liquid dnb artists I listened to years ago and he's so talented for being so young. I got to see him in Nashville and he was literally just chilling in the crowd before his set. I recognized him and told him how much his music meant to me!

[@michaelcaldwell6901]

Rachel B I was there too. I was shocked to see him in Nashville and even more shocked when I realized we grew up not far from each other in Virginia. I’ve been following him for a while and love all of his gifts to us. Fly high Flite

[@MRblazedBEANS]

I love when djs come out and see the show before they go on, most hold up in the green room.

[@edster013]

The level of orchestration put into this is just outstanding, flite just delivers on another level

[@sandelser]

intro and buildup had some Hans Zimmer - Stay (Delta Heavy Bootleg) vibes, and oh my lord, the flip!! fhuaaaark massive tune, this is really something else 🔥

[@Pandahydra]

Eargasm confirmed, Flite prove again that he's an absolute genius of the DnB scene whit this one. Keep it up buddy, proud of you.

[@detinu]

From that nasty RL Grime remix, to this soulful piece of music, Flite is on a roll! Keep it up!!!

[@Tactix_se]

I read as soulless and was about to go on a word crusade

I've been waiting for the full to come out since Noisia Radio teased it. God, I'm hooked.

[@LynDash]

The first and second drops look like a "Camo & Krooked" drop, which is really great. So much good vibes. Long life to Flite.

[@pauldorman]

Chills. Every. Time.

[@t00nvisi0ndub]

Of course Flite had to be part of the UKF10 album! He makes awesome tracks! Fantastic as always! Edit: Flite is actually Justin Hawkes!?!? What!?!?

[@OhhBrutalC]

Flite has actually made himself the best liquid dnb artist in like 2 months of time... how he did it? Unique bangers my friend, bangers you would never ever expect, untill they happen, you check the title, you see Flite and you are like: "Hmmmmm" thats why 🔥❤

[@FitemeUrlnotIrl]

hell yeah , but flites old tracks are almost just as hard

[@NikoDeus]

This is amazing!

[@epictrismegistos3695]

The start its dreamy but everybody knows that the bass always drops in the middle.😁 I love it.💜😇

[@Vidrio127]

Some could say like a Flite through time and space 😏

[@digital11337]

[@Max-ch6bu]

Para mi. Esta es su obra maestra 😁

[@SHACALACA]

insane

[@baldvinbo]

This song gives me such an eargasm and I absolutely love the analog sounding synth melody in the beginning! Does anyone know what synth he made this with? Curious to know if he used a hardware analog synth like maybe moog or if it is a soft synth.. I know both can sound amazing when used right...still I wonder everytime I blast this, so simple, but so powerfully built up 'melody-build-up' :)

[@fastwork1703]

Space travel, nice!

[@dsolid]

I noticed it too

[@JustinHawkes]

Wow, you're right. Have never heard that tune before

[@ronnie_hr]

anthem

[@DnB_Connoiseur]

Sounds like Camo x Krooked, but in a good way

[@afwasborstel112]

Hans Zimmer + Camo & Krooked crossover

[@mcgrey_]

So you say Camo x Krooked are making Music in a bad way?

[@DnB_Connoiseur]

@@mcgrey_ No, I'm saying that when another artist or group take to another's style they tend to sound flat like with the Sub Focus leads but this sounds really good.

[@mcgrey_]

@@DnB_Connoiseur Ah ok, yeah you're right

Why are we too blind to see All that we were meant to be Tragedy Humanity

[@elvinaskaroblis9146]

Bro some of us know deep down that we are not from here

[@TimSter15]

Judging from the comments section, I am expecting big things from this. As per usual with Flite, but even more so now...

[@TimSter15]

...and as usual he blows my expectations away! Beautiful, unique sounding track. This is going on my Philisophical Thoughts playlist rn!
