Romanian artist Heatwave teams up with Akinsa on the latest release for AGN7 Audio, delivering a dark, tribal workout powered by slow/fast halftime percussion and throbbing sub weight. Sick tune! Look for this one and two Heatwave / Dreadmaul collabs dropping April 19th at digital stores…

re:st are back with another deep vinyl release and this time it’s Sotus taking control. Title track Gloom is in the Dojo spotlight today…building up with melancholy atmospheres and intricate drum work before progressing to darker bass textures on the second drop. Really unusual sound on this one and a haunting vibe…this ships April 15th from the re:st store and other vinyl retailers.
We’ve got a very special premiere from Detached Audio boss K2T today as he unveils the first Sampler EP from his forthcoming debut LP for the label! The Sanctuary’s Kingdom combines Karan’s love of old school tinged breakbeats with his talent for emotive melody and compositional depth, for a track that is mysterious and uplifting in equal measure. We can’t wait to hear the rest of the album…but in the meantime you can grab the Elder Spirit EP on Mar 29th.
All profits from the release will go to the charity Help Musicians UK which provides grants and support for musicians, including running the enormously important Music Minds Matter project to support musicians’ mental health. Great music for a great cause…get to know.
Icelandic producer Subminimal returns to Ortem this month with another top notch EP and we’re hyped to have the exclusive on Disrupt!

Look out for the EP coming March 15th at Bandcamp with all other stores following two weeks later.
German producer dreadmaul lands in our premiere spotlight again today with a typically creeping, tribal halftime cut. Forthcoming on US imprint Conspired Within Music, this one conjures the spirits with a potent mixture of pulsing sub, skittering breaks and voodoo magic. Dope! Look out for the release dropping April 5th (with another top release from dreadmaul dropping the same day on Ronin Ordinance to boot).

Soft liquid goodness on today’s exclusive as we showcase the lead track from Detached Audio’s brand new Delta 003 EP.

Dharma Kaya lands on KOS.MOS.MUSIC for today’s premiere as we present the title track from his new LP, Fenix. Taking us on an epic 7-minute journey with ethereal vocal echoes, off kilter drum rhythms, swelling synths and warm bass modulations, this is thinking-man’s D&B at it’s finest. Look out for the album coming Feb 24th at all good digital outlets…
