Aufect celebrate ten years in the game this month with a massive compilation featuring a host of talent from the weirder end of the 170 spectrum, and what better way to get in on the festivities than with a premiere from label bosses Greazus! Mother F sees them teaming up with Detroit beatsmith Sinistarr for a typically infectious slice of halftime/footwork hybridisation; sick tune! Look for this coming alongside 27 other tasty treats at digital stores December 13th…
Bay 6 drop a stunning new LP from Karma Kingdom at the end of the week, and we’re hyped to present the premiere of sublime drumfunk workout I’ll Be Waiting. Blending soft strings and melancholy piano with a frenetic breakbeat assault reminiscent of the work of producers like Paradox & DJ Trax, this one is a masterwork in percussive precision; future jazz at 170 beats per minute. Look out for the LP coming Dec 7th at all good digital stores!
Sixteen Step Records reach their tenth release with a big new compilation LP, and when we heard Sam Binary’s contribution we had to grab the exclusive! Serious darkstep amen vibes on this one…menace. Watch out for the LP coming to digital stores Dec 16th.
Crunching halftime fire on today’s exclusive as Dutch artist Subp Yao touches down on Methlab! Sizzling bass weight and that swung out halftime sound…wicked tune. Look for this coming Dec 4th at Bandcamp and Dec 6th at Beatport.
Elementz of Noize returns to his own imprint for a release of more mellow material and we’re proud to present the premiere of lead track In Aether. Following on from the absolutely sublime The Grand Escape earlier this year, the new EP is full of melodic explorations at the deeper end of jungle and that couldn’t be more evident here; classic breaks, hypnotic synths and a zen-like calm pervade the track. Music for the mind, not the dancefloor…watch out for this coming to Bandcamp from Nov 30th.
One of our favourite imprints returns to the Dojo premiere spotlight; The Dreamers are back at it and this time we’ve got the exclusive on Manic Culture from London producer Trex. Harnessing a bubbling synth melody and playful basslines against a backbone of 2-step D&B goodness, this one sizzles along nicely. Watch out for the EP coming 4th December exclusive at Beatport…
Today’s exclusive comes from GROUND as he drops an absolute weapon for Connections Vol. 1, the new VA LP coming to Mystic State’s Chikara Project imprint. Heavy hitting breaks and an absolutely groaning bassline…this one is a killer! Look out for the LP coming Dec 3rd on vinyl and digital.
Fearful’s debut LP for Diffrent Music is almost upon us so naturally we had to snatch up an exclusive! Through The Mist goes in deep on an atmospheric tech rumbler powered along by some of the most detailed percussion we’ve heard from Fearful yet…taking a few leaves from the Amoss playbook while retaining his own unique take on the D&B sound, this is a cracking track, and the rest of the album is equally engaging. Look out for the Interference LP dropping tomorrow on vinyl, CD and digital…
The scene in Italy continues to go from strength to strength with another sick release from Frame as he lands on Delta9! Unbreakable blends an ear for melody and atmosphere with a chunky backbone of warping tech bass and heavy hitting breaks for a fine balance of heft and soul. Wicked tune! Look for this one coming Nov 23rd at Beatport with all other stores following on Dec 7th.
Our latest premiere comes from B1tyze as the duo land on Samsara Beats with a new EP. Cascadia blends a weighty halftime drum pattern with infectious melodic hits and plenty of bassline sizzle; funky riddim business! Look out for this coming Monday 19th at Bandcamp and other digital stores…
