Beats Vinyl New Releases - News

Fokuz Recordings is quickly becoming a household name for fans of the musical side of the spectrum in drum & bass. They now present their 64th vinyl release that is stacked with soul, a very satisfying EP with two excellent artists.

On the A side Hungarian production outfit Incident come correct with 'Fill Me In'. A wicked piece of drum & bass that just flows effortlessly with its deep bassline stepping under arches of delicate instrumentation and driving percussion. Watch out for these guys in the future!

On the flip, Spearhead Records head honcho Bcee delivers once again with 'Double Take'. Pushing forward his signature sound of lush, rolling and soulful beats this one is well worth checking out! Charming from start to finish.

Close 2 Death Recordings come out the blocks and set the bar high for what is to come in 2014 from the camp and serve up 2 bass heavy missiles from Exclusive Russian producer Rusty K in the form of AC-130 & The Savage.

Both tracks have already received support from the likes of Audio, Black Sun Empire, Ed Rush, Jade, Neonlight, Aeph, Memtrix & Prolix to name but a few.

The face paced, bone crunching double A sided release is guaranteed to propel Rusty K into the spotlight as both tracks prepare you to march for war and are guaranteed to destroy the floors around the world in 2014.

A sampler release ahead of Octane & DLR's full album release of their debut LP 'Method in the Madness'

Pavel Khudyakov aka Brain Crisis. A young producer making a sound that TeeBee has described as 'like aliens mining a colony out of metal' and THE producer to watch in 2014. Brain Crisis 'Hands Up' is proper rude bwoy skanker and has become one of the biggest tunes in Calyx & Teebee's DJ's set. On the flip Brain Crisis & Teddy Killers join forces for 'Local 2' a cold piece of D&B pressure. Creating a track that's full of bruising bass, techno fear & frantic drums. DJ feedback: El Hornet: (Pendulum)10/10 dudes be insane Doc Scott : hands up should be a big tune!
Zeds Dead: Dope! TC: 10/10: sounding sick!!
Mefjus: local 2 is amazing.Reso UK: fucking crackers

Limited Clear Vinyl Pressing!
Not much needs to be said about this dangerous duo really... When it comes to hard drum & bass, these guys are on top of the game and this new PRSPCT Vinyl release proves that.

Kove returns in 2014 with a double A sided drum & bass single on MTA Records.

An astounding four track E.P featuring the remixing flavours of international producers Rowpieces, Duoscience and Flowrian alongside the beautiful vocals of Sass on her debut vinyl release. Taken from the stunning debut album 'One Sided' by the Moody Bootleggers Ft Sass available to buy worldwide now.

Dutch drum & bass imprint Citrus Recordings has been renowned for kick starting the careers of numerous acts in the present day drum & bass scene. After releasing their last LP early 2013 they now push forward an Australian/German combo better known as Rregula & Dementia!

The full project will be released on two 12'' pieces of wax and a CD. For the second 12'' three heavyweights put their mark on the ''Turning Point'' project creating a pair of superb remixes. Using the original version of ''Timeline'' Optiv & BTK flip the track into a hefty stepper with a killer build up that can't be ignored. This one is bound to inflict damage on the dancefloor! On the flip Austrian inhabitant Mefjus steps up with a remix of ''Doom Loop'' turning it into a stripped back body-moving riddim. Not to be taken lightly.

Dom & Roland is one of those producers that embody the true spirit of drum & bass. With over 150 releases, many of them
considered classics, he is true pioneer with 20 years drum and bass history.A fearless artist who's never been afraid to try something different. Remember your rootz: An amen track of thunderous proportions and heavy as it comes. This means serious business. Huge string pads pave the way for a barrage of rumbling bass that penetrates every inch of you. During this onslaught samples fly in and out to remind you of where drum and bass originated from, classic lost samples galore. When he staccato hardcore riff comes in at the middle, it creates complete mayhem on the listeners brain. This track has caused utter dance floor devastation whenever it's been dropped. Freeze: An diamond in the rough takes you straight back to the metalheadz sessions at blue note, It begins with huge searing strings before an exquisitely programmed breakbeat batters you around the head with a multitude of pots and pans. When the bass drops you it locks you down into the groove and will reduce many to shaking booty within seconds. we guarantee this will
have the entire club bouncing. Both of these tracks have had a lot of DJ support from the likes of Goldie, Audio, Break, Klute, and
many more.

Never shy of bringing new flavours to the table, once again it is time for Tectonic to introduce a new artist to their increasingly eclectic roster. Born and raised in London, Jay Fontaine aka Decibel later hopped over to Newcastle for a few years and now can be found based in Belfast. Jay is a producer with broad musical tastes and influences that have led to him making music that just doesn't quite fit in any one box. Over the four excellent EP tracks Decibel shows a winning ability to cherry pick the bits he likes from hip hop, crunk, dubstep, juke, hardcore, electro, pop, glitch, electronica and absorb them into his own world... in the wrong hands this could result in a right sonic mess, but Decibel brings these elements together quite naturally. The results are something along the lines of what might happend if Lil Wayne's producer Mannie Fresh sat down with Diplo, Girl Unit and Rustie to make a beat, fuelled only by Red Bull. While 'G.A.P.' and 'M.S.T.' take things along a bit more of a pounding hip hop / dubstep sub-bass line, 'Miss' and 'Gyal' see a more melodic and glitchy side come out. All four tracks are pure unique quality. Already this exciting producer is tickling a wide range of interested heads, with DJ and radio support coming in strong from the likes of Sinden, Mistajam, Benji B, Doorly and Toddla T as well as MJ Cole, Drop The Lime and many more... Get involved!

Counting almost three years in the game now, Demand Records have set themselves a mammoth task. To continually release music
that cuts through the mounting levels of hype that surround the drum and bass scene of 2013 while retaining an edge of experimental
innovativeness is no easy feat.
Luckily, by pushing the task onto the greatest talents of the deep, dark and creative side of the scene, the label have achieved exactly
what they set out to do. Drum & Bass on Demand 2 is a collection of darkly intelligent beats from some of the label's biggest stars,
as well as some incredible new talents.
Released on a huge 14-track CD with a vinyl-only 12' featuring exclusive pressings of tracks by Abstract Elements and Pennygiles &
Mr Josef operating on an 'order now or or regret it later' basis, Demand are proving once again why they remain one of the genre's
best loved labels.
From Troy Gunner's atmospheric wanderings in first track 'Capacity', the scene is set for a totally different type of d&b vibe.
Dropping into the crystalline claps and soaring beauty of Cursa's 'CRNR', then switching directions completely for the angular techy
swerve of Bredren 'The Truth', there's no let up in originality.
Detail & Linden push back with high-pressure bass and kicks full of coiled-up power in 'The Limits' and then Cursa returns with
Subliminal and Axlr for some dark, minimal hard-stepping danger in 'Camino', with Mindmapper & Fre4knc's remix adding punch
to empty atmos and gravelly bass.
The dream trio of Roygreen & Protone & Pennygiles pick up their first spot on the compilation with a VIP of their dancefloor slayer
'Misunderstanding' - a dark and dirty re-fit that somehow improves on perfection. Following that, the unstoppable forces of War,
Overlook & Mateba collaborate on 'Scared', a tune that's submarine deep and laden with neck-snapping breaks amid paranoid
atmospherics.
Keeping things submersed ten thousand leagues below, Pennygiles' second track on the album sees the Welsh wonder working with
Mr Josef on 'Underwater City', a juxtaposition between light, bright melodies and the deepest, wobbliest, filthiest bass it's possible
to wrench out of a sub. Roygreen & Protone then step back in with a response in 'Shady', stepping and posturing all over the floor
with minimal sounds and rapidfire percussion.
There's no let up though, as next up, Gamma smashes in with 2347, a huge tune worthy of destroying any club no matter where, no
matter what time it is. Irresistibly deafening bass, immaculate percussion, growly half-vocals - it's got it all.
If you thought techy rollers were missing from the equation, Eastcolors & Krysiz have got you covered. The crisp breaks and stressy
synths in 'No One Knows' pull together to create a true icy rollout, classic Eastcolors style. Following suit, Linden & Detail push a
claustrophobic atmosphere around barely-contained neuro tweaks and a big, bouncing bassline with 'Fringe'.
MTWN has been spreading his devastation around the scene for some time now, but in 'Voices' his knack for inspired percussive
breaks and the most destructive deep, dark bass with minimal effort really pushes through. Following this with some smooth liquid is
a steep request, but Qbig & Zenith B pick up the pace beautifully with the soaring, rolling lushness of 'Science' featuring the
velveteen vocals of MC Fava.
The two exclusive vinyl-only tracks kick off with Abstract Elements' neurofunk electrical storm that is 'Saturn', a steely rollout
through buzzing synths and rapidly morphing basslines.
Pennygiles & Mr Josef hit the studio together once more on b-side 'Overdrive Melody', an homage to the glory days of hardcore
and the emergence of jungle-breakbeat crossovers. There's something different about this stone-cold thriller - not only is it massive,
it's fun. You don't get to say that with a genuine smile on your face about a d&b track very often, do ya
Demand Records always looks beyond the limits of drum & bass to see what else the genre can achieve. Challenging listeners and
pushing producers to their limits, 'Drum & Bass on Demand 2' showcases the complete audio ethos of the label itself.
Light and shade, elegant rhythms and dirty bass - intelligent noise. It's the Demand way, you should know that by now.

Calibre has gone through his hard drives, DAT tapes and even mini discs to find more gems for 'Shelflife 3'. Thirteen of his most
requested unreleased productions from 1997 to 2013 are now released on Vinyl, CD and Digital formats.
Mistajam 'Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!'
Doc Scott '10/10 Doesn't get better than this'
TC '10/10 Need a moment to take this in! So Good!'
Noisia 'Smooth as ever. Love it!'
Recent Calibre live mix for Mixmag:

* The wait is over- PB4 is here. Perhaps one of the most revered album series in drum & bass is back with a vengeance, and some are saying it maybe the best yet. This release is one of two samplers preceding the album.
* First up on this 12' sampler we have cohorts DLR & Script with the Headz vocalist of choice Martyna Baker whom you may be familiar from her work with Goldie and Lenzman. The track opens as a gliding, subconscious led number that is wrapped in Martyna's velvet vocal. As the track moves towards its drop it becomes clear the vocal is a paranoid and claustrophobic affair and it reflects the instrumental very well in that the beautiful atmos draped intro becomes a mid-range bass led growler.
* The second track on sampler one is by Headz veteran Digital donning his dubstep hat. As you would expect with Digital he has taken it right back to the essence of dubstep as opposed to what it has become. Delay and reverb laden Mini Cooper is sinister in its execution, It's a single light moving around a dark dancehall, typical Digital vibes on this, it's a welcome return to the label for Mr Carr.

Celsius Recordings returns with a 12'' by Command Strange. Deep soulful beats for the liquid lovers out there! Picking up jazzy samples and breaks as he goes, this golden wunderchild shows once again why he's on top of the scene. The end result A pair of exciting D&B tunes perfect for dancefloors and the headphone commute. It's an accomplished release well worth bagging.

* A legend on the rise, 2013 marked the rejuvenation of one the most important labels in D&B's history. With a renewed mission to release the hardest, most dance floor focused tracks, Bryan Gee's Chronic is once again synonymous for heavyweight, bass-fuelled riddims. After a year that saw the label launch a brand new look with the mighty Chronic Rollers as well as releases from L-Side, Sativa Dub and Silent Type, Chronic is now ready to drop its most exciting project yet - the gully sounds of 'Warehouse Music'.
* Kicking off 2014 in style, Warehouse Music takes D&B back to its roots on an undeniably deadly new compilation album.
* Roni Size returns to Chronic with 'Blind Alley' - pure dancefloor fire the way only Mr Size who's how. Already supported by MistaJam, Eddy Temple Morris and more. The man responsible for the classic 'Friday', the mighty Capone heads up the flip with 'I'll Be Your' with an old skool influenced, hard hitting beats and bass that hits right to your chest.
* Optiv & BTK who usually represent the techier side of the D&B spectrum delivers a classic, ragga tinged Chronic roller that has been getting support from Friction and Crissy Criss. Serum rounds of EP with 'Energy', a track which definitely lives up to its name combining evil bass stabs with stepping srums.
* SUPPORT: Friction, DJ Hype, Crissy Criss, Bryan Gee, Bailey, Mistjam, Eddy Temple Morris, DJ Marky, Jumpin Jack Frost and many more.
* LABEL MARKETING: Features on V Recordings Podcast, and Planet V shows on Ministry of Sound Radio and Origin FM, Dedicated newsletter to 85,000 V Recordings subscribers. 60,000+ Facebook reach through label controlled Facebook and Twitter. Press on websites across the globe.

Asbo Records see's its first year with new distribution & label revamp in by releasing a remix E.P of their first release AAR001 "Love Dub" .........The Love Dub Remix E.P......... Ft remixes from the ledgendery Ray Keith who brings that infamous dread sound to the camp & up and coming producer Gold Dubs Ft on the AA with a real modern twist on an aleady huge track. 12"/Digital Release ...

* Dramatic debuts on SGN:LTD with a smacking summertime breezer ready to blow away the stifling heat building up on dance floors across the land right now. Hailing from Nottingham UK with releases already on the likes of V Recordings, Good Looking, Innerground and more, Dramatic is a talent that knows how to construct some of the most soul searching drum & bass in 2013.
* Hinging the whole track around the dazzling opening piano loop 'Keep Pushing Me' is a real breath of fresh air full of sweeping pads and a solid break that rides along underneath. As the vocal drifts in so does the warm rising sub and strings while the incessant keys keep lifting us up until the every end. A sublime slab of peak-time performance.
'Straight Talking' opens with a classic amen break softened by more lush chords and a subtle vocal that paves the way into the bass-heavy drop, carrying it away for one solid dance floor filler to round off another stunning SGN:LTD release.

* The first single to be taken from Fred V & Grafix forthcoming debut LP. 'Recognise' showcases these two young
producers at the peak of their game.
* Combining prodigious song-writing, epic musicality and dancefloor sensibility, 'Recognise' eschews the predictable
structure of todays identikit D+B and opens with intricate arpeggios and skittering beats. Evolving into an ambitious and complex composition featuring lead vocals from Fred V himself.
* Simultaneously intellectual and effortless, it's a breath of fresh air that builds on the success of Fred V & Grafix
previous successes 'Major Happy', 'Games People Play' and the current 'Catch My Breath',
* Debut airplay on Annie Mac's Friday night Radio One show, with radio plays also coming from Zane Lowe, Mistajam,
Friction and Crissy Criss. Fred V & Grafix count Subfocus, Netsky, and B Traits as fans.
* Young gun Emperor applies his twisted neurofunk genius to the remix for this package, choosing to frontload the song
and harmonic structure before descending with a Spartan bassline workout and rugged tick-tock drums which will have
every 21st century junglist grinning from ear to ear.
* Across the board club support for the Emperor remix from the likes of S.P.Y, Enei, Doc Scott, Fabio, Pascal, June Miller,
DC Breaks, Marky, Camo & Krooked, Spectrasoul.

* OVERVIEW: What a year it's been for Loadstar. Exceeding every possible expectation with their debut album 'Future Perfect' in May 2013, the duo won critical props and appreciation from every possible corner: from The Guardian to Mixmag, Hype to High Contrast, MTV to Radio 1... Love for Loadstar has been overwhelming. Naturally the love goes both ways. Here the Bristol duo provide an early Christmas reboot bundle, bringing 2013 to a fittingly heavy climax.
* First up is a remix from Loadstar themselves. Flipping the switch on their electro-bass burn-up 'Losing You', they ante up with pummelling drum dynamics and a bassline that screams bona fide murderation. True subversive heavyweightism.
* Up next, 'Need You'. It began as a turbo-charged techno monster. Now, under the careful spell of Frankee, it's a rush-coated, star-gazing roller built on a solid bed of bass textures. Twinkling and terrorising in equal measure, Frankee once again shows why he's been rated as one of drum & bass's brightest prospects. Those hungry for jugular-focused damage should jump on DC Breaks' take on 'Give It To Me'. Riddled with insane levels of energy and attitude, this is strictly peaktime business right here, confirming the duo's current do-no-wrong status.
* Rene LaVice is also on chop-slapping form with his incendiary rub. Processing the demonic dubsteppy intentions of the original into a rocket-powered stepper, it has the sound (and impact) of someone setting fire to entire firework factory and running off at full speed. Genuine audio damage.
* PRESS/ONLINE: Reviews across dance media. Updates to follow
* RADIO: Serviced to specialists. Updates to follow
* MARKETING: Ram Records mailers
* TRACKLISTING:

* Metalheadz kicks off a very exciting 2014 with a new team of producers for the label.
* Firstly introducing Mako and DLR who are already starting work on their forthcoming combined Metalheadz album project, alongside we have the fledgling talents of Villem and the elder statesmen of the scene Ant TC1 who in his own right has had a hand in a fair share of memorable releases and himself heads up Dispatch Recordings and Metalheadz.
* META015 is project that shows a great depth in the talents of the foursome, it's a beauty and the beast affair, fantastically executed in the great tradition of Metalheadz.
Kicking off with 'Hungry For Atmosphere' this stepper is a perfect set opener, heartfelt strings and keys give way to contorted mids and FXs, whilst the familiar vocal is processed into something altogether more sinister. The track clocks at just over 7 minutes and this says everything of the tracks ambitions, not pandering to anything but its own journey.
Next to step into the ring is 'A Certain Flavour' the opposite but yet perfectly paired track to go with the A side. Beginning with a very cinematic introduction it unravels into a growling bass led stepper with staccato drums before switching into a two-step drum work out, tailor made for dancefloors and DJs alike.
* A release that we are very happy to kick 2014 off with, welcome to the new breed!

Canada's most accomplished drum & bass ambassador, Rene LaVice has some big plans for 2014... And they start right here. Showcased by Andy C on his mind-blowingly massive 'Nightlife 6' opus, both 'Where My Ladies At' and 'I Want More' slam, sizzle and surge with contemporary production muscle. Let's press play... 'Where My Ladies At' achieved cult status when Andy used it to slap Zane Lowe into submission during a live battle on Radio 1. The savage bass tears, stark iced-out hook and crazed funk flurries on the fills caused instant online riots from the fans. When you hear it, you'll instantly understand why. Complete with a mischievous vocal sample and explosive dynamics, it's LaVice at his most deadly and direct. 'I Want More' is equally stunning. Cooking with the most authoritative rave ingredients with euphoric command, LaVice opens with a show-stopping synth hook. Wholly complemented by a soul-stirring vocal loop, it's an ode to the deepest foundations of the dance while glaring confidently into the future. Galvanised by rich, raw bass and pummelling drums, we guarantee this will have the entire club bouncing. With more unique firing fusions locked and loaded for the near future, LaVice is set to have an incredible 2014. Stay tuned for more heavyweight material very soon.

* Having released mostly on the Civil Music imprint until now, Alex Melia AKA Reso has signed to Hospital to release this EP of four brand new tracks.
* Previous Hospital outings include the grinding anthem 'War Machine', drum-step funfest 'Slap Chop' and more recently glimmering synth stepper 'Kamina' on Hospitals 'We Are 18' Project.
* For the first time in Hospital Records history this release is available exclusively on a limited edition 2x10' format.
* Kicking off, 'Sprite City' is quite simply one of the most majestic pieces of electronic music we've heard in a long time. A riot of colour and digital sound, to describe its humble roots as a homage to the golden age of sega soundtracks of yore does not do it justice.
* Holding it down a little bit more with a straighter 174 bpm backbone, 'Unexist' holds down an infectious groove. A proficient drummer himself, things get crazy in the second half with an elbow wrecking drum solo.
* Title track Pulse Code continues the theme of a technical approach to making beautiful soulful d+b music. With classic TR808 and 909 rhythms jostling for attention with vocal elements and swirling arps, the sawtooth bassline and classic breaks on the drop help sooth the ear.
* 'Break 'Em' drops the tempo and takes a more aggressive stance. Aggy digital hybrid hip-hop for 2014, the breath of styles on this EP is a testament to Reso's unique talent.
Shimmering technical neon soul music

* One of the biggest tracks in liquid d&b of the last few years gets the remix treatment.
* Originally intended as a DJ only VIP, the Keeno & Whiney remix grew as an underground anthem, with Spearhead Records getting daily e-mails demanding it's release before they had even heard the remix.
* In order to give the fans a little more for their money, BCee teamed up with Hyrbid Minds to bring their own 'Spearhead' style interpretation.
* This is an un-official release and will only be available on 10' blue vinyl, for a very limited time. This will not be repressed.

Russian hell raisers repping with raw clarity: few acts have shown such broad skills as Teddy Killerz. Since emerging two years ago, they've worked with some of the biggest names across D&B, glitch, trap, dubstep and beyond. In each and every instance they've demonstrated an innate understanding of all genres with alarming killer motifs. Their debut EP for Program sees them return to the source. D&B is where it began for the trio, and it's where they show their most muscular, mindbending musical skills. Appearing on Andy C's 'Nightlife 6' in November 2013 with the pranged out 'Impossible', these four tracks will be smashing dancefloors worldwide. We kick off with the stunning 'Big Blow'. Truly unique, it combines sharp percussive elements and a waspish bassline with a deep funk hook that's entrenched in dramatic pianos and jazzy organs. Timeless, distinctive and daring, there is nothing out there like this. 'Jackyl & Hyde' follows. A physical gritty groove slams and shoves with power while Coppla lays down crisp lyrical messages. Textured with intricate production elements and more of the trio's emphatic drum dynamics, it's an instant head-turner. Next up: 'Era'. Delving further into the darkness, the trio whisk us on a mission into deep space. Smelting elements of complex neuro production with classical, minimal funk, 'Era' weaves a tight sci-fi web that's guaranteed to take your floor to another planet. Finally we hit 'Una Mattina'. Flipping the triplet switch with euphoric glee, what begins as a rush-fuelled star-gazer soon drops us head-first into another devious, bass-bitten workout. Swaggering with an infectious confident groove, we're bombarded with an array of precision synth shots, sweeps and stabs, each element adding a wealth of funk to the overall vibe. Living up to their name in a major way, Teddy Killerz really are killing it with these four shock-outs. It's time, once again, to get with the Program!

Tempo Records is proud to announce & release three brand new tracks by Pete Parsons aka Voyager. Pete is known for his engineering work and various productions for cult labels such as Lucky Spin and DeeJay Recordings. Pete also released an album on Belgium's R&S label wich included a certain single called ''Hypersleep'', this classic track from the ''golden era'' is nowadays still considered as one of Drum and Bass defining musical moments. More classic releases followed on LTJ Bukem's Good Looking Records label and Dj Fabio's Creative Source label.


Tempo Records picked three of Pete's latest releases, and since it's hard to describe them here's Pete's own words: ''All 3 of these tracks where written after I lost my dad earlier in 2013. ''F.A.Q'' is about a sense of wonderment, and inspired by a documentary I saw on some deep research on the origin of DNA, we all ask ourselves questions at some point, hence the, ''Who are we, where do we come from'' samples. ''LuvBLoved'' is a very special track for me, as it was the first thing I did after returning home after spending the last few months with my dad. The title was borrowed from an old Frank Sinatra song, which dad used at the end of something he wrote to me, which was: ''One of the most important things in life, is to love and be loved''. ''Big Picture'' can best be described as orchestral/cinematic melancholia''.


This release comes as a limited 140 gramms clear vinyl pressing, including a mp3 download voucher and full artwork sleeve, all tracks mastered by Stuart Hawkes at Metropolis, London. Highly recommended.

DLR has proved undoubtedly one of the stronger forces to emerge onto the D&B scene and onto the Dispatch imprint since last year entirely in his own right as a solo artist; we hereby proudly present you with his next single. As a prelude to DLR's own solo forthcoming Dispatch album, we welcome two killer tracks as part of this single. Led by a collab of colossal proportions, via a link up with Dutch wizard Nymfo and the groove masters Need For Mirrors + HLZ, their individual talents
combine to form "Totem". This is backed by a solo track from DLR "Novate', an all-out homage to a late 90's tech sound of old that's still clearly loved by many.

3 tunes to explore various sounds. Obnoxious brings a superb mentalcore fux while Brahmah is in a total psychiatrick electro bleeping structure. To finish the job Artek brings a superb psychedelic not to acid tune. A storyteller. A beautyfull printed sleeve on both Team Watsed 7-1 and 7-2 to complete the concept. Superb realeses !

Hailing from London, Bipolar head up the latest vinyl installment on Fokuz Recordings!

Two contrasting individuals with a common interest in taking drum & bass to unexplored places. Drawing on a wide variety of musical interests the boys are continually striving to incorporate live instruments and unique samples into their productions.

On the A side we find 'Sublime', a jazzy stepper loaded with a gritty bassline dipping into the tasty sounds of more

'Velocity' is the third album from MachineCode, following hot on the heels of 2013's seminal 'Under The Sun' and continuing where its predecessor left off, taking up a position outside currently definable sub- genres. 12 tracks deep this time (including remixes from Mindscape and The Sect), the duo's classic D&B sensibilities are well-evidenced, with rugged breaks, deep basslines and elegant pads the order of the day. Yet every element has received the unique and immediately identifiable MachineCode treatment, resulting in an album that pushes boundaries, but does so with a maturity and depth all too frequently lacking in today's bass music scene. Moving seamlessly from brooding, percussive-led tribal pieces - through intricately-crafted, edit-heavy workouts and stepping, '80s-influenced neuro - to straight up dancefloor killers,
'Velocity' covers many angles. MachineCode prove they are more than adept at each - every track is infused with soul and their unmistakeable robotic funk, culminating in an album interesting and varied enough to sustain repeated home listening, whilst also satisfying even the most demanding of dancefloors.

Dutch drum & bass imprint Citrus Recordings has been renowned for kick starting the careers of numerous acts in the present day drum & bass scene. After releasing their last LP early 2013 they now push forward an Australian/German combo better known as Rregula & Dementia!

The full project will be released on two 12'' pieces of wax and a CD. The first 12'' contains ''Doom Loop'' by Rregula, Dementia & Disphonia and ''Melt'' featuring MC Kryptomedic. Hard hitting drum & bass, the boys prove they know how to lay down some serious neuro pressure.

The Hard Way are a full live band these days and we wrote the album with that being our main focus. An album to rock out live with but also divers enough to just listen to from a to z...

Some tracks on the album are 100% DJ friendly Dance floor stompers, others 100% Not.
A mix of Drum&Bass, Hardcore, Breakcore, Punk & Rock with BPM's ranging from 175 to 2
Majority of the tracks are brand new but we also added new and improved versions of tracks like Devil Worshipping Motherfuckers & Pentagram of Coke and Suck Satan's Cock. Adding guitars en live vocals for instance.

Total Fucking Nihilism will be the 1st single of the album. We shot a pretty wild video for this track which will be coming out begin next week.

Ragga Drum & Bass. South france famillies style. Massive sound !

After the well-received launch of our label in June 2013, we are very proud to present to you: our second Hit 'n Run Music release!

Dubstep / Drum 'n Bass masters Sinister Souls are kicking the Break side off with an epic mix of oldschool drum 'n bass amens combined with newstyle hardcore kicks and snares! Make sure you stay on your feet after that first drop because "Make them Dead" will blow your socks off!

Production wizards of epic proportion Shimla & Evasive Maneuvers have brought us something special. From the moment we heard the first notes of "Hidden Depths" we fell in love with it. It's pretty relaxing but has hard snares, some industrial kicks in the distance and that unique vibe! But when you think you heard it all, out of nowhere it evolves in a swinging techno/electro track you just can't stand still to!

Hardcore titan Stormtrooper opens the Steady side with this 'to hard to handle' industrial hardcore track: "Energized" You will never be ready for this cause these kicks will almost make you go cry for your mommy as that tune in the background tends to reflect through your head! Proper Hardcore like it should be, goddamnit!!

Mental psychonaut Frixion Fanatic has to ability to put his raw energy directly into his fantastic live-sets. Luckily for us, he manages the same effect in his studio tracks. "Your Dimension, Not Mine" starts of pumping and soon you will fall in a deep abyss of sweeping synths. Only to return to the surface, but in what dimension

On loan from ASC's Auxiliary label, we are proud to have another release from the UK's Sam KDC on the Samurai schedule. 'Survive / Exist' is one of the most powerfully emotive tunes in the 85/170 bpm based genre we have ever heard. It's ducking mixdown accentuates the tunes depth as it fades in and out like an out of focus vision that you can't quite hold onto. 'Erogenous' continues the dream like state with shards of emotion floating through the tune leaving trails that draw you back again and again. Fantastic custom art from the talented Petra Zhivkova (https://www.facebook.com/petrascookiejar) complete this irresistible package.
