Now with new imprint In Reach Records they’re taking things to the next level; with their third release just around the corner we thought it was high time we caught them for a chat.

Dark tech minimalism with an edge of soul on our latest exclusive as Sedo delivers fresh cuts for Modular Carnage.

Sick tune either way. Look for this dropping June 28th.

Surgence might be a new name but the producer behind it has plenty of experience under his belt, both under previous D&B alias Bazil and as part of reggae outfit Dreadzone.

Deep bass vibrations, stark atmospheres and intricate drum work make for a masterclass in understated, creeping techstep. Sick tune…look for this coming June 21st at all the usual digital stores.
Tech vibes on today’s exclusive as we dish up the title track from French producer Reptile’s new EP for Impact music.

Deep sonics on today’s exclusive as Johnathan Thomas drops new music for US thoroughbred stable Onset Audio.
