Beats Vinyl New Releases - News

Stargazer is a huge tune beloved by ravers all over the world, but for a long time the rights to it were in legal limbo. Kniteforce/KFA un-limbo-ed them to create this superb EP of remixes, featuring the classic original, the also classic Reese remix, a fresh new … err … old take by Dj Luna-C, and a proper tough remix from Audio-X. All in all, this single record covers everything anyone could want in an EP …

Club/DJ Support: Billy Bunter, the Fat Controller, Glowkid, Slipmatt, Dj Jedi, Dj Luna-C, Dj Brisk, Clayfighter, Jimni Cricket, Bustin, Sc@r, Doughboy, Saiyan, Dave Skywalker, Liquid, Hyper On Experience, Ant To Be, Ponder, and ... many others.

Cromulent, uncraptacular and soul embiggening are just some of the adjectives used (admittedly mostly by us) to describe the Globex Corp series. So here's a repress of the much-loved Volume 1, one of the least blurst entries of the series.

Ibiza Records is now collaborating with the legendary DJ SS who played an important role in the '90s development of Jungle n Drum & Bass, genres n becoming one of the major recognized producers in the U.K.

In 2020 releasing a number of back catalogue tracks on his co-owned Formation label.
This album showcases both released and unreleased tracks influenced by the musical paradigm shift from hardcore and acid house into the much darker and faster jungle sound that still packs a punch to this day.

1.Rampage 95: Between The Lines: The alias for this project came from SS always wanting to go deeper into subjects and read between the lines…. In terms of the track 1995 was one of DJ SS’ biggest years for killing the Jungle scene and was storming the scene in a Rampage…

2.Were Rolling: This track made in 1995 under the alias for this project came from SS always wanting to go deeper into subjects and read between the lines…. In terms of the track 1995 was one of DJ SS’ biggest years for killing the Jungle scene and was storming the scene in a Rampage…

3.Smokers Rythmn: This tracked made in 1994 under another alias of Dj SS n during the 90’s a lot more people smoked than now a days. However always being a non-smoker SS had to spend a lot of time around people who did, so the name was a gimmick for the time. SS has never endorsed smoking…

Pear enters the new decade with New Members' latest opus Deep In The Night. Three tracks expanding the Donabate hero’s singular universe to ravier, more anthemic heights.

The title track is a right beast, giddily soaring through decades of dance eras past with expert poise. Its hard housed pumping core and diva mantras soon erupt into trance(cstatic) bliss, eliciting Pear’s biggest hands-in-the-air moment yet. Addictive stuff.

Stargazer shifts focus, locking in deep with an aerated roller reminiscent of early noughties tech. Serene pads suspend across its chugging low end, indulging sun-rise euphoria for ‘floors & headphones alike. Forcefield Shifta sees us out, stepping sharp with reinforced hardcore energy. New Members flexes his breadth as one of Dublin’s most talented producers.

Acid Lab returns to AGN7 Audio with his “Secret Weapon EP”. With releases on a host of recognized underground imprints, he has offered steady contributions to many areas of the Drum & Bass and Bass music community throughout the years, under several aliases including Kodama and Ahmad.

Various Artists: Lisene, Hartta, Sourpuss & Interplanetary Criminal

"Banoffee Pies Records" drop the 13th release in the original series. This VA aptly entitled "Common Ground" is a crossover of influences from 4 artists with a selection of tracks all above 150 bpm from producers of a similar generation giving a nod to their youth and early musical journeys, largely inspired by Drum & Bass and Jungle raves across the UK.

The release divided in two with a Dark A side and Light B side offering parallel moods of depth and liquidity. The opening track "Class Of '92" from Lisene, one half of the Space Cadets duo, with previous releases on Seven Hill Records and an EP lined up with Planet Euphorique later this year, pushes complex drum patterns and pulsing synths evolving in energy levels throughout. The A2 from Bristol based Hartta offers a more spooked out bass heavy cut with "Hauntology", ready for powerful system rumbling.

The B side begins with title track "Common Ground", an ode to dusted jungle and liquid drum & bass from Leeds based Sourpuss, known for running the Stretchy Dance Supply parties, - this track serving hedonistic eye rolling gurner euphoria, sounding more like an og 90's prodcution. The last track on the disc "Vapour" comes from Manchester's Interplanetary Criminal. With his UKG EP "Move Tools" on BP010 landing on the label and many dance floors at the end of 2019, this nostalgic drum scattered jungle cut stylishly closes off the compilation. Ltd. Press. BP x

Acens return to the scene was an undisputable success, with his vinyl EP selling big numbers even in this day and age. A remix EP was inevitable, because how could we not? And if we are gonna do remixes, lets roll with the best in the scene. Danny Styles, who’s recent remixes for Hyper On Experience were enormous, takes the A side with a full on amen jungle remix. Meanwhile, Liquid brings his timeless class to the remix pool, slowing it down and giving it a polished classic feel. Kniteforce hero Alk-e-d teams up with newcomer Dj Beeno to round the EP off in ruff and underground style.

This massive 12” EP combines some of Sublove’s rarest releases with a brand new surprise. Vexation is an AMAZING track that was recently discovered by Sublove sitting on a DAT. How this superb piece of amen mayhem wasn't released I just do not know, but finally it gets its day on wax, where it always deserved to be. A huge 1994 styled jungle Amen roller, truly amazing. This track sits next a bunch of other tough to find and mindblowingly good Sublove tunes. Get in!

The Invisible Man (aka Doctor G, The Undergraduates, Mysteron amongst other monikers) needs no introduction to anyone with even a passing interest in Hardcore/Jungle/Drum n Bass, having been responsible for such seminal classics as The Beginning, The End, Twisted, The Bell Tune and Stormfields amongst countless others - having released music on Timeless Recordings, G-Spot Records and the legendary Good Looking imprint, 7th Storey Projects are proud and privileged to be able to add this legend of the scene to their list of released artists.

Booca – Breath Of My Spirit is a tripped out adventure into the mind of one of the most original artists we have heard in a long time. Starting off with the sounds of distorted, warped vinyl and melancholic vocal chants it builds into wonderful exhibition of funked up drums and big bass stabs. One of those tunes where you will discover something new on each listen. Expect to hear more from this great Italian producer on Transmute soon.

DSP – Just A Touch is a big dubby, drumfunk tear out. The chopped up drums build into a crescendo of dubbed out bass, haunting pads and DSP’s trademark fills & rolls. Check this out on a big rig (when we are allowed). Look out for more beats from MK’s finest this year as we know he is cooking up some Trouble!

Ben Kei – Desolate. Dalston Chillies founder brings his perpetual spicing to Transmute with a heavy rolling bass & drum display. Percussive beginnings creeps into mentasm and jazz keys manifesting into some classic niceness jungle vibes. The bassline on this really is big and should be enjoyed at the highest possible volume. Spicy!

Die 2CD besteht aus jeweils 10 Fabric- & FABRICLIVE-Exclusives, die beiden LPs erscheinen entsprechend separat. Fabric steht für den Londoner House- und Techno-Underground, ob melodisch von Nina Kraviz, electroid von Steffi oder experimentell von Margaret Dygas. Der neue Resident IMOGEN serviert Dark Techno, Marcel Dettmann seinen klassischen Late-Night-Sound. Call Super (Houndstooth) lässt es deep-melodisch angehen, Maya Jane Coles spielfreudig-housig und der britische Dance-Pionier Sasha bestreitet das Finale mit euphorischen Höhen aus Vocal- und Melodiestrukturen. FABRICLIVE repräsentiert das beste aus Dubstep, D&B, Jungle, Breaks und Experimental-Beats. Den Anfang machen Junglist Special Request (Houndstooth) und die D&B-Koryphäen Source Direct und J Majik. Shackleton und Pinch & Trim zeigen die neuesten Entwicklungen in der Bassmusik auf, Daniel Avery und B.Traits ihre Dancefloor-Flexibilität, Mantra die Zukunft des Londoner Undergroundsounds. Das Finale bestreiten zwei der frühesten Gefährten des Clubs, Groove Armada und Original-Resident James Lavelle als UNKLE.

Abyss once again drops a masterclass in Amen manipulation, with shattering bass and proper jungle vibes. Hitting that sweet spot between original old skool and classic styled amen trickery is a trick tried by many, but none in the current scene comes close to matching him. This EP drops HEAVY and gives the dancefloor no time to recover.

Astrophonica maintain pace in 2020 as Philip D Kick returns to the label with the 6 track “As We Continue”. Following 2018’s “Pathways” Jim Coles aka Om Unit aka Philip D Kick adds some shine and sparkle to his already near perfect and persistent formula. Coles remains dedicated to blurring the lines and joining the dots. As we continue . . .

Stu Chapman has been one of the most well regarded producers in the old skool and hardcore breaks scene for many years, and teaming up with legendary Perth Dj Rob Fender, he drops this awesome debut EP. Three tracks loaded with a deep underground sound for the proper raves from back in the day.

Alpha Omega returns with a serious LP of some of his previously unreleased music and we are proud to have this on the label.

Alpha Omega fans will remember his album on Reinforced Records The 9th Level, when Alpha Omega returns to the 9th level with a stunning lp that cover most genre in jungle / DnB. Alpha Omega was so ahead of his time and his music still sounds fresh today.

The album will have 8 tracks that span across the DNB genres on 2 pieces of black vinyl.

Produced by Digital.

This EP produced by Noise Factory in 1993 expresses the full on depths of Junglistic Hardcore at its best and was driven by the rare groove of the sample patterns we like to call it of jungle with a groove.

These are unreleased tracks by S. McCutcheon (Syko) & R. Haigh (Omni-Trio) under the name 'Persons Unknown'. These group of artists collaborated on a number of tracks which were released on the Candidate Records label (a sublabel of Rob’s in-house label, Parliament Music). However, there were a number of unfinished, archived and VIP remixed tracks that are now scheduled for release on Blueskinbadger Records”

Rave had become hardcore – from which a strand called breakbeat house developed. This morphed into breakbeat techno, which became jungle techno. And I turned around to find myself part of a movement that was now known as drum & bass. This further splintered into (labeled by journalists) jump-up and “intelligent drum & bass,” darkcore, artcore, and so on. But the point was that it was always pushing forward; trying out new ideas, never settling on one definable style...” - Rob Haigh

Another storming EP from the mysterious Bring Back Records.

Harking back to the 90s breakbeat/jungle era, the A-side sounds like it could easily have been made back then. With its faultless structure and memorable melancholic flute element, it's set to become another underground anthem.

B1 offers an atmospheric, rolling remix of Sweet Murda (BRINGBACK002) from Dwarde & Tim Reaper - well-known for their Globex Corp series.

B2 contrasts to excite those who value music with character and innovative moves. Full of unexpected twists and sophisticated drum patterns, this cinematic horror breakbeat/jungle track smashes boundaries and leaves heads spinning.

This is the bad bwoy approach as it should be. Get your goosebumps on!

An Exact Science is a fantasy of long time ASC fans have had for many years (ourselves included) come to life with results that surpass our imagined results.

Out Of Romford Records was one of the most underrated old school labels in the history of our scene. Relentlessly innovative and with a unique sound, it was always ahead of the game and perhaps it is only now that the true brilliance of each release can be really appreciated.
This EP contains the absolute classic “Chance To Dance” which back in the day eclipsed the other three tracks on the EP. But years go by, and now all 4 tracks can be re-evaluated. And what an amazing EP this is. Its both a product of its time, and totally timeless in its sound. The remastering has only served to enhance the brilliance of the entire EP. Not to be missed…

Defrostatica welcomes BSN Posse to the fold with the "Rituals EP".
The hardworking team behind the infamous Iberian Juke label were
among the very first to amplify the 160 bpm footwork sounds of
Chicago dance culture in Europe. Since 2015 Broken Lip and Stay Puft
developed their very own sound which blends Juke with Hip Hop,
Modern Jazz, R&B and of course Jungle. Their productions always come with soulful tones and humble nods to the Teklife originators, DJ Rashad and Spinn. Having remixed Detroit’s Filthiest "Secret Sauce" in 2018 they now return to the label for a taste of their own
production featuring collaborations with UK’s Jon1st, Pablo Dread
out of Spain and Canada’s Metafloor. #UOAI

The next release is a collaborative EP by Eusebeia from which we already released two digital EP`s in the past. Together with Atiq from The Netherlands and UK`s Arlow they created four atmospherical Jungle bangers.

kniteforce head honcho and all round oddball Luna-C drops an eclectic remix EP, featuring tracks spanning his entire 3 decade career. Shoreman takes “Bomb Da Bassline” and makes it as mad as you might expect from the mastermind behind “On The Edge”. Success’n’Mistreat meanwhile is remixed back to the early 90’s sound of MARRS and that sample heavy era. The Wislov remix of “Edge Of Madness” is perhaps the standout, being a classic anthem remixed into an even more formidable style, and the EP is rounded off by KF newcomer Dj Beeno, who takes the obscure “Hurricane” and blows it away…

Coco Bryce - 'nuff said.

Alright, maybe he does warrant a bit more than that. Myor boss Coco Bryce returns to his self- proclaimed "second home" at 7th Storey Projects with two new bangers, something of a natural sequel to the much-loved Gunna released on 7th Storey in the form of a cheeky little 10" in 2019.

On the A side you'll find 'My Girl' - a roughneck breakbeat ride but with sweet and soulful vocals and Summery synth-lines smoothing out a bit of the roughness - a typical Coco workout, and that is by no means a bad thing!

On the B is U Can C In There, a gorgeous roller - just listen, the music speaks for itself! Mastered & cut by Beau Thomas, pressed at Record Industry and presented on Coke Bottle Green vinyl - fancy
