Beats In Mind round out an excellent year of releases with the fifth volume of their Headsbass series, and we’re pleased to present the premiere of Colossus’ track for the compilation – Hit Parade. Combining Toby’s knack for melodic hooks with hefty low end and rolling breaks, this is classic D&B vibes through and through. Look out for the full LP coming on Christmas Day, and once again all proceeds will go towards mental health charities…great beats for a great cause.
Today’s premiere comes from Sun People who brings us a storming new cut from their brand new EP on Leipzig experimental imprint Defrostatica. Driving 4×4 kicks and an array of skittering percussion power the tune along with dark bass vibrations and floaty high end all adding to the sense of high energy hypnosis. Wicked vibe! Look for this one coming Dec 18th on vinyl and digital…
Johnathan Thomas teams up with LeCoughSki for a new cut on Inform Records sub-label Reform Music on today’s exclusive! Dubby textures, subtle melodic trills and a faintly tropical vibe characterise a top-notch tune. Look for this one coming Dec 23rd at Beatport, with all other stores following Jan 6th.
D-Struct lands on P Lab Recordings for today’s premiere and he’s dishing up a serious slab of dark, rolling groove! Punchy drums and sub weight combine with a techno influence and a stripped back sensibility for an intoxicating ride…less is more on this one. Check it out and look for the release coming December 18th.
Karma Kingdom serves up a wicked new track for the third volume of Detached Audio’s 5 Years EP series, delivering a hard hitting combination of drumfunk breaks, melodic chops and bassline heft. Beautiful and deadly! Look for this coming Dec 11th…
BTK has largely been on a significant holiday over in the techno scene for the last few years, so it’s great to see him back on Dispatch and packing a full length LP to boot! We’ve got an exclusive from said LP today in the form of Guidance – deep, dark, rolling techy goodness as only Vini delivers. Check it out and hit up the Dispatch store to grab the album right now!
Trex drops his debut album via Mac 2 Recordings tomorrow, and we’re hyped to bring you an exclusive from the record! Featuring Ella Jones on vocals, Dreamy Dayz is a bubbly roller with enough heft to keep a floor moving while still retaining that soulful vibe. Summer rollers for winter days! You can grab this on the album sampler right now; the full LP drops Dec 4th.
Hyperactive rave shenanigans on today’s premiere – hoovers, stabs, euphoric piano and breakbeats a plenty on this one! Chu Hi sees Calculon and Lil Kevo 303 teaming up for a maximum energy dancefloor destruction, teleporting the sounds of 90s rave into 2020 with a massive bang! Look for this via The Dreamers from Dec 7th exclusively on Beatport.
Australia’s Luke Sentric brings the vibes on today’s premiere, dropping a slab of bassy halftime swagger for Samsara Beats! Hit up Bandcamp to cop this one right now.
Liquid fans should definitely recognise the name on this guest mix! Emerging as one of the brightest talents in rolling, melody-focused production, Henry’s work has seen release on Celsius, Fokuz, Bay 6, Default and Glitch Audio over the last few years. His mix delivers exactly what you’d expect; deep, emotional D&B selections featuring the likes of Leniz, Askel, Echo Motion and Alix Perez. Beautiful stuff!
As always you can check out the mix via Soundcloud below or head to Youtube or iTunes to stream. You can also grab a download from Google Drive.
