New Forms is an album by Roni Size/Reprazent, released in 1997. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Brown Paper Bag”, on 1 list with a best position of #31.
New Forms, the debut album from Roni Size & Reprazent, came out on Talkin' Loud in June 1997 and made a case for drum and bass as a full-length listening experience. Roni Size, who fronts the collective, produced it with Krust, DJ Die and Suv, with Onallee and Dynamite MC on vocals.
The breakbeats skitter and roll at breakneck tempo, the basslines swell and churn underneath, and Onallee's voice floats over all four singles, "Share the Fall", "Heroes", "Brown Paper Bag" and "Watching Windows", each of which charted in the UK. It won the 1997 Mercury Prize, went platinum in the UK, and is still often called the group's finest work.
