Beats Vinyl Neuheiten & Releases - News

Here at Titan we pride ourselves in bringing you new and exciting up and coming artists and TITAN004 is exactly that. DJ Oder may be a new name on the scene but Joao Barbosa is well known in Portugal for his events, his DJ sets and also for playing and cutting his own vinyl. On the A side 'Rock The Place' starts with stabbing trance synths and builds with a catchy vocal. It then drops into a large envelopded bass line and old skool sounding drums which really shows DJ Oders diversity in production. The flip is a track called 'Robot Talk'. This has such an epic intro it sounds like the beginning of a hollywood blockbuster. The drop on the other hand is pure Dancefloor mayhem and is sure to push subs to their limit.

Harvey K-Tel's debut on Resense featuring 2 fantastic coops with Oxford's dubmeister Count Skylarkin. Both tracks are coming in DJ-friendly 7inch edits in a rubby-drum'n-dubby-double-time-stylee !...

The record opens on a Ragga Tribe solid tune 190 Bpm flavour, at the hardcore frontier... Then you get 2 Hard ragga Jungle. Fever.

CURRENT VALUE + SUBSISTENZ + AMENS ----- No more needs to be said !!! Limited Edition 1st White Grey Marble Vinyl - Clear Bag

Future Sickness Records is proud to present his 14th vinyl release featuring Katharsys! This is also the debut release of Katharsys on Future Sickness! Katharsys did something special for this release on Future Sickness, they made a drum n bass/hardcore crossbreed release. Something that they didn't do in the past.

Russian producer Paperclip returns to FKZ:LTD with a track called 'Whom I Belong', combining the rough with the smooth: beautifull melancholic pads, the occaisional use of synth stabs and a clear and crisp drumline.

Quadrant delivers a tremendous release on the Citrus imprint. Sinister stringlines changing into ripping basses. Of course the percussion game on this one is tight.

A pair of producers based in Kent, England, Synth Sense are steadily making a name for themselves with a particularly distinct, deeper synth-driven sound. On their first release for Phunkfiction, the two have again teamed up with vocalist Rose, whom they had great success with when both featured on Anile's gorgeous Seeking You.

The dark lords of the technoid steppers make their first appearance on m-Atome LTD.
Both tracks equally bear the trademarks of what has made a whole generation of djs, producers,label owners and crowds play,admire,seek or nod at the sounds of The Sect over the past 5 years.The gloomy and eeries intros and space out effects unfold an inferno of relentless beats and grinding basses. A highly recommended 12inch packed with some of the finest tough dnb sounds of the moment.

Dropping into the full flow of 2012 is this new piece of absolute gold from men on the move Technicolour & Komatic. With their second release on Sgn:Ltd we wouldn't be surprised if youstart to hear a lot more from these guys throughout this year. An amazing way for Shogun's sister label to kick things off in 2012.

Real name Dan Griober, Dan HabarNam has been active since the '90s, doing production for Romanian pop artists while also working on his own projects. His solo catalog is pretty slim, with just a few appearances on drum & bass labels like Santorin and Subtle Audio, but From the Known is clearly the work of an experienced artist: though loosely anchored in techno, ambient and bass music, it's stylistically open-ended, and produced with an audiophile's attention to detail. According to the label, Groiber's meticulousness extended to the mastering process as well (the CD, for instance, was recorded direct from the vinyl to achieve that special analog feel)

This release has been campaigned by non other that 1xtra's very own DJ Bailey and for good reason. 'Sun Is Shining' has been getting played by everyone and it really does Bob Marley's original justice. On the flip 'Jah Army' also shows you why this release has already been repressed.

'I Am Bad' is D Minds first single of the year and it features guest vocalist Charlotte James from the well respected trio 'Hybrid'. The Original Mix coupled with the Enei Remix makes for a great all round release offering two different ends of the DnB spectrum.

Another excellent deep rolling release by Dabs. Of course the usual roaring bassline is sounding thicker than ever. Those occasional vocal cuts are perfectly placed. Excellent Syndrome affair by Dabs.

dgoHn is one of the artists that best encapsulates the Subtle Audio sound. He offsets heavy breakbeats with an array of smooth keys, strings and vocals, while his arrangements always carry the listener on a journey that is never quite certain but always interesting. These are qualities that have ensured Aphex Twin regularly plays his music at festivals around the world and that dgoHn himself gets booked to play at the most esoteric Drum & Bass nights like Technicality and IChiOne aswell as at eclectic events such as Bangface.'Hang Nail' employs the ubqitious amen but with a crunch and a twist that only dgoHn could provide. The incessant nature of the drums is tempered by a wistful Repetitive synth-line and some kind of weird voice and pipe symbosis (we did say it would be interesting). Rough with smooth was never such a delicate balance! The title of the next track prepares you for the slightly obtuse nature of the music - '4.377445 Yards' has an abundance of melody and some nice male vocals that would be considered overtly saccharin elsewhere but not alongside dgoHn's railroading breaks and menacing basslines. The off-kilter redeployment of different elements as the tune progresses and the general rhythmical deviancy also ensure that this is no Sunday stroll.Finally 'Be Gentle' rounds off proceedings by abandoning the traditional Drum & Bass 4/4 time signature and the unconventional rhythmic structure allows for a unique interplay between the beats, bass and melodics. This is some different business, but then, what did you expect from someone called 'dgoHn'

Even before you listen to this record you know it's going to be a banger. Lowdown Deep Records is, in our opinion the best jump up label around. Logan D always picks the best tunes and all the big jump up producers give him first dibs. 'Espanol' is MASSIVE and once this riddem drops prepare to rewind. On the flip DJ Origin gets involved and churns out 'Destructive' which is an impressive slice of dancefloor Drum and Bass.

Green & White coloured Vinyl with hand stamped labels.Klute's 'Commercial Suicide' label is stepping activity up in what will no doubt be one of it's best years in it's history. Gridlok will kick off this years release schedule with his 'Tuscan Raiders' / 'Enemies of the State' 12. Gridlock and Jamal hits you hard with Arabian atmospherics and growling baselines. Ready to tear it up big time, this splendid piece of work features the sound of the almighty Amen coming through your speakers!

Badfellaz' A track people have been waiting on for some time is finally unleashed with a fresh re-work for 2012! We're excited to be releasing this from the guys with the huge 'Donuts' on the A. Both tracks capture the Dispatch sound perfectly on what is a hugely varied and interesting release from 2 of D&B's hottest producers.Extensive DJ support on this release from the likes of: Goldie, Hype, Teebee, DJ Marky, Break, Marcus Intalex, Skeptical, Hybris, Kasra, EBK, Doc Scott, Safire, Ant TC1, Octane & DLR, Artificial Intelligence, Bailey, Xtrah & Spinline.

KSHEEPV013 Nekura / Facs is a retro dark Drum & Bass shout out, a late 90's influenced affair that features rough Tramen's over driven Reese basslines and hard beats plus snares.

Red Vinyl Edition. Samurai Music steps into it's fifth year with another hand picked quality stream of releases from the finest in new and established talent. NZ016 is a great example of this approach.Pessimist is a rising name in advanced, technical, atmos-drenched dancefloor Drum and Bass with releases on Renegade Hardware, Critical and Ingredients under his belt and many more to come. On 'Canyon' he collaborates with new trio Arma (War, Overlook, & Mateba)* for a writhing, moody roller that surges with a rumbling bassline, classic stepper drums and a riff that has often had crowds cheering with delight as it comes sliding in.Ex pat kiwi Cern, recording artist for Renegade Hardware, Project 51, SOM Music, and of course the architect of one of our most popular back catalogue releases 'Eastern Gates', provides the remix here. Working tightly with the core elements, Cern increases the pressure with subtle overlays, washes of processed amens and a powerful bass interjection. We have kept this one tight until now, and are positive the DJ support will come flooding in as the release reaches the master selectors.

Pleasure has clearly been busy in the studio over the Christmas period and he has a string of really strong releases that are now seeing the light of day. Both 'Minute Man' and 'Move Easy' have been bouncing around on dubplate and now it's your turn to have a piece of the action.

'Get Ready' has been a huge success for Congo Natty and here we have the follow up single which consists of two remix's both of which are getting battered. On the A side Serum and Northern Light's offer a Jump Up mix which ticks all the boxes and on the flip see's Dubstep giant Sukh Knight add his own 145 flex to this already amazing release.

Dubnest employ the Bristol based Run Tingz Cru for this third release on this ever growing label. Blackout JA supplies the catch vocal hook whilst Run Tingz supply the Jungle vibes. On the flip Dijeyow and Jera team up and roll out 'Feel Good' which has been getting plays all over the place.

Playaz are starting the New Year with the best that Drum and Bass can offer by bringing you the long awaited Bi Polar EP from Playaz veteran Sub Zero. Stepping outside musical boundaries and shattering any illusions that his production style is nothing more than ferocious jump up, Sub Zero's creativity has grown and developed within the Bi Polar EP highlighting his envious skills at producing timeless Drum and Bass.

After Netsky, KG, Break and Nymfo smashed some Belgian dance classics by original artists Shameboy, Buscemi, Ultrasonic7 and Magnus, a few more d&b hotshots step to the plate.

Tactical Records impressed everyone with there first releases and this one from The Funktion is even better. 'Detonate' and 'Natural Selection' flew out on promo and we had to up the order on the full releases as the demand was so high. Watch out for their third release as it's getting a lot of love from all the big guns.

This is a lovely little mix from S.P.Y of 'In The Waiting Line' and there has been a serious buzz on this track over the past few months. This is a limited press so makes sure you grab it before it disappears

The first 1000 limited edition 4-piece Gatefold vinyl are shrink-wrapped and contain the full CD album inside. All re-presses after this will be the vinyl on its own.

Hot off the back of their much talked about EP on Metalheadz which made itstraight to the no.1 spot on he BBC Radio dnb charts, duo of themomen 'Need For Mirrors' return with their most deadly instsllement to date 'Scuba'. Integrating a blend of classic Virus/Krust influence effectively with their own cutting edge productions.The flip see's the guys collaborating with Zero T delivering a smoothbut deadly number.The release has already received plenty of support from the likes of Bailey, Break, AI, Fabio, hype, Goldie, TC1, DLR & Octane, Vicious Circle, lynx, DJ Storm to name but a few.

Falinox is the new signing to Lifted Music. The soon to be superstar from America has been working extremely hard over the past 3 years in order to get his sound and technique's perfected and is finally ready to unleash Drift Out & Worlds Collide.

Waiting for Never was created a few months later when Trei was passing through Vienna and the final track, a tearing Trei remix of 'Baby I'll Play' by The Thomas Oliver Band.
