A collection of premieres featured on our platform.

Premieres

If you‘ve been following the sound of neo-grime and wave music for the last couple of years, there has been no way around @eonesoundsuk.
The Brighton-based producer-powerhouse, DJ, lecturer at Point Blank Music School, and all-around top lad has assembled a deeply emotional EP for us, which we are happy to share with you all.
Ranging from 130 to 150bpm, it features 3 tracks, that clearly focus on one thing: to make you feel!

LOVE AFFAIR confronts you with the sense of longing for something quite undefined, but definitely out of reach, bathing the listener in razor-sharp, glacial soundscapes.

SPIRIT sparks that cinder of hope, that’s been inside you all along, but you forgot how to grasp. In an astonishing array of arpeggios, it pushes you forward while simultaneously triggering a familiar melancholy.

LOST is the fastest composition of the bunch, solidifying the foundation that the previous tracks have established.
It features sublime pointers to video game and rave culture while being rhythmically adjacent to UK garage. Faint vocal samples feed into nostalgia, which makes this the perfect round-up for the EP.

PS: It’s okay to cry in the club. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!

We are happy to present another fine release from our beloved friends from Leipzig @Defrostatica Records. This time they are dropping the first stand alone Single from @DjBadshape aka Maria Schwind. Release date is the 14th of January 2022.

Buy the release on Bandcamp: https://djbadshape.bandcamp.com/album/hurrican-kick

@DjBadshape is a multi-talented artist from Leipzig,
Germany, working in the fields of design and music. The singer, producer and DJ debuted on Defrostatica Records in Summer 2021 on the various artist compilation Hybrid Hooks with “I See Red”. Her light-footed and open-minded approach to club music was premiered and reviewed with great praise by Leipzig’s electronic music magazine Frohfroh. In her first own release on the label though she puts a different emphasis. Influenced by gritty personal events @DjBadshape has written two tracks that are on the dark side of two different genres: drum and bass and techno.
Hurrican Kick is a minimal autonomic drum and bass tune carried by
instruction calls from London’s roller skater star Stormskater. Few
percussive elements are floating around a hypnotic kick pattern that soon elevates the dancer in the ‘zone’.

Today, we have the honor of premiering yet another release for our friends at @Defrostatica records.
@Greazus return to the Leipzig-based label with a 4 track EP, influenced by UK hardcore, jungle, and electro and with a clear focus on taking raver's hearts by storm.
Or to put it in their own words: "This record is our love-letter to good ole' warehouse rave days. The era that we both think back fondly to, that inspired us, and where we cut our teeth musically."

"WTF" is an absolute belter of a tune, clocking in at 160 bpm, and provides relentless, fierce energy as soon as you hit the play button.
The tangy acid synth and nostalgic sample use in combination with sharp breaks sum up to an incredible production, that will leave no limb unshaken!

Greazus - Phantasia EP

[PREMIERE] Greazus - WTF (Defrostatica)

A key moment in the narrative arc of the album is found in SPIRAL, expressing once again how both power and despair arise from dark places. Apreggiated vocaloids, disspersed and gated, are joined by monstrous midrange bass and heavy drumbeats for the runup to the final gathering before the tension finds release.

skylin - Spiral

Upon arrival at the center piece of the ODYSSEY, icy arpreggios and furious garage drums create a surreal ambience with distant lights looming in the dark, hinting at the hopeful horizons ahead.

skylin - Odyssey

The overture of the album, SOFIA, casts a perspective on what’s to come. Starting off with gloomy guitar strings and crackling sounds of decaying concrete debris, the song immerses you in a melancholic, yet reverent atmosphere soon to be joined by a droning sub bass. Transendence starts right down in the depths.

The Hamburg - Berlin connection is strong at DARK REAL DARK. Not only because many of our members are living in these two cities, but there's also constant interaction and conversations between crews and artists from the German capital and the northern bass hub. 

One of the interesting new faces of Bassmusic there is Sarah Q, who blessed us with a stunning mix for our podcast series.

Music has always fascinated Sarah endlessly - ever since her brain started forming thoughts and maybe even before that. Her first rave experiences were key moments and she immediately knew that she wanted to DJ, but it took some years to move from the dancefloor behind the decks. It all started with her and DJ Babyblade (fka Claud) playing a back-to-back set for the capsule livestream. Shortly after, Freddy Kuno gathered Usus, Selsela, and Sarah Q to form the crew KINETIK SESSIONS. They started throwing small parties at Astrastube and also had slots at Waagenbau and Fusion Festival. In recent months, Sarah represented the crew at renowned clubs like Uebel & Gefährlich, Golden Pudel, and Südpol among others.

Her podcast for DARK REAL DARK features a mixture of deep and dubby afrobeat tunes with a dark tone running through the whole mixtape. Get ready for some future shit from Hamburg!

Through digging the parents‘ Soul and 80‘s Dance Tapes in his childhood, Tension got influenced with music early. By listening to genres like Hip Hop, Metal and later Drum & Bass aswell as House Music, he got enthusiastic about the diversity of electronic music. Those inspirations are defining his musical career, but contributing to his eclecticism in sound.
By gathering experience at clubs and festivals since 2006, he soon got deeper into DJing and producing various electronic sounds. This was followed by several releases amongst labels like Kaputt Musik, Vector Functions and recently Illegal Alien.
Based in his homebase Bielefeld, he took his sound to South Africa in 2013 for a fourteen days tour, followed by gigs at Berlin‘s Kater Holzig, Maria am Ostbahnhof and Tresor. Beside several EP‘s, he released his first self entitled album on his regular, Berlin-based label „Be Sure“.
Relevantly embossed by labels like Basic Channel, Ostgut Ton or Perlon, he situates his sound between the poles of (Dub-)Techno, Electronica and Breakbeat, but with a touch of minimalism which he expresses aswell in his DJ- as in his Livesets.

Even as a child, medea mad was playing her cassettes wherever it was possible. 1999 the first encounter with DJ culture happened and the first set of turntables were bought. D’n’B and Break Beats as the foundation, she dove through many different scenes and styles of music. Then life happened and she lost interest in mixing electronic music for a while until 2019. Instagram opened the world of music again and she learned about all the UK Bass Music and Footwork and the  passion for DJing came back. The long lasting Lockdowns gave the opportunity to spend more time on music and now, enjoy what she comes up with.
You can catch her playing DJ sets in Munich on the mighty elemental wave soundsystem and she also runs her own radioshow on Radio 80000.

When it comes to dj's fiercely dancing on stage, we instantly think of fake moves executed mainly for the feeds. But that's not always the case. As with Moska - hailing from the small town of Ljubljana but lately more frequently spotted in Graz and even more in Vienna where she currently resides. Her stage moves are enthusiastically honest, but more importantly she doesn't read the floor, she's a part of it - whether she's doing a head noddin' true school hip hop set, a laid back soul-funk soiree or conducting a serious footwork/bass/ghetto/house club workout. Sometimes she even mixes it all up. 
The bio formalities and impressive references: Moska started actively deejaying around 2015 and since then performed in different countries across Europe (Sweden, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Austria ...), on different festivals and radios such as Elevate festival, Impulstanz festival, Ment festival, Radio FM4, Redlight Radio, Radio Helsinki, Res.Radio, Radio Nula, Radio Študent ... She shared the stage with names like Traxman, K-Lone, DJ Fulltono, DJ Innes, MC Sa-Roc, MC Dynasty, FVLCRVM, The Bug and Miss Red. She used to run a weekly radio show called Mishmash Mo’ on the online Radio Nula and occasionally organizes events with her fellow DJ friends. She's part of not one but three collectives that connect her triangle of home bases: Service (Vienna), Whammy (Graz) and Ghetto Trunk (Ljubljana).
Moska truly and thoroughly embodies the classic dj ethos: peace, unity, love and having fun ... and giving it always 100%! Keep it fresshhh.

Here's what she said about her mix for our podcast series:
It’s a game of tempo 80/160bpm. Doubling, halving, doubling, halving ...
Doubled up, doubled down ... in the mix! It’s a musical romance between genres which are circling around hiphop, starting from the roots and going to the branches. ‘Somebody gonna love you, somebody gonna hate. I will love, I will love, I will love.’ - Seven Davis Jr. feat. Kutmah - Afterlife.

Dark Real Dark Podcast #41 - Moska

It was a hot Tuesday. The camp felt like the burning desert. It was unbearable to stay anywhere outside the shade. The Nerdaufnahme was populated and there was only one other place to keep cool. The Chillfoor right next to the Herzbergstich laguna.

Petroschi @ Chaos Communication Camp (15.08.2023)

The 42nd installment of our podcast series comes from none other than producer, dj, and visual artist @Morganhislop! Morgan has held down radio shows on infamous stations such as Rinse FM, Radar Radio and just closed a four year residency on Reprezent Radio. His vibrant and colourful music is usually paired with his equally bold design and animation work. Remixing everyone from SOPHIE to Rosalia, his club bootlegs and edits have been praised by the likes of VTSS and I. Jordan. His debut album ‚Ghostin‘ Me‘ sent him in a new direction, injecting his club influence into future pop sensibilities and collaborating with vocalists from around the world.

After moving away from radio to focus more on making music this year, he’s been lacking a regular outlet to show what inspires him. In order to catalogue these tracks that accumulated over the summer in one concise mix, he created this bubbly and powerful selection for us. Uplifting and playful like everything he does, it snakes between lofty breaks, melodramatic house and garage. There’s a nod to the late great DJ DEEON (RIP) and a few other surprises thrown in there as well. Sit back, turn up the volume, and reminisce in memories of summer days passed or what it would have felt like, to have an actual summer!

Dark Real Dark Podcast #42 - Morgan Hislop

It’s been a while since the last premiere was featured on our platform, but when our good friend @photomvalian asked us if we’d be interested in sharing one of the tracks of his upcoming mini album ‘Eternal Sunshine’, we knew there would be absolutely no way around it!

‘Cant Stop’ manages to cross the gap between a strong sense of beautiful melancholia and invigorating intensity. A combination of outlying pads and obscure vocal samples levitate throughout the track, being driven forward by a relentless breakbeat pattern. It’s one of those tunes, where it’s up to you, what to use it for. Either closing your eyes, drifting off to your happy place or releasing all that accumulated energy on the dancefloor - the choice is yours.

‘Eternal Sunshine’ will be released on the 18th of December and will be available exclusively on Bandcamp.

Eternal Sunshine

Cant Stop

[PREMIERE] Photom - Cant Stop (self released)

A mysterious crackling noise, dubby, echoed chords, and the foreshadowing of an abysmal bass greet us on "Jigjag", the opening track of the "Along The Years LP" by Leipzig producer Borisson.
With his LP for Boundless Beatz he crafts a musical reflection of becoming part of the drum & bass scene in Leipzig and the evolvement of his passion for this culture. The development of social constructs, the experience of club cultural highlights and the acceptance of musical influences are rounded off in a package that, above all, brings a lot of vibe.
In times when concentration spans and tracks seem to be getting shorter and shorter, Borisson and Boundless Beatz take a different approach and present us music that you can lose yourself in. To create his very own vibe, he uses the full length of the tracks without drifting off into dullness. This is perfectly shown on "Jigjag", one of the slower tracks on the LP.
Dubtechno echoes meet arrangements that are reminiscent of dubstep and downbeats, completely engaging the listener and taking them on a journey. On the 7 minute long ride, you'll always spot new, fitting elements that merge into already known structures and rhythms that will feed your brain and soul.

"Jigjag" will be released on 19 April as a digital download & stream on the Boundless Beatz label.

Along The Years

[PREMIERE] Borisson - Jigjag [Along The Years I: Belong] (Boundless Beatz)

Founded in 2011, @vinil-motion-1 is the name of a project created by Alan Flores from central Mexico City.
His monthly Motion Soundz Mix Series aimed at generating worldwide interactions and connections within the spheres of 140, 160, and 170bpm club music and even featured some of our releases.
He has collaborated with record labels such as JukeMx, Movelike.co, and currently BLDSMX.
In 2020 he curated the ArmadaSounds x BLDSMx project, which is a compilation of international artists, that are joined by a deep and universal web of soundscapes and musical relations.

The mix starts off with quite a cinematic, encapturing intro, soon to evolve into a storm of percussion.
Clocking in around 140 bpm, it navigates flawlessly through genres such as modern hardcore, ravey breakbeats, grime, electro, and ghetto house.
Expect a carefully arranged, vibrant selection of tracks, guaranteed to spice up your day!

Dark Real Dark Podcast #43 - Vinil Motion

@Defrostatica is delighted to welcome @LaDame1 to the label. The kind polyglot DJ and producer from Belgium, with a vision of music that is centered around global breakbeats, presents four forward-thinking takes on jungle music.

She has crafted her own distinctive approach to jungle drum 'n' bass, combining elements of both slow and fast styles within the genre in a way that is entirely unique. Her drum hits are precisely
and minimalistically arranged, creating a powerful impact in perfect harmony with deep-roaring basses and vibrant, tropical voices. La Dame's conceptual use of animal-sounding samples is based
on the idea that the Bestiary EP depicts creatures that are a mixture of human-cyborg and animal, through electronic music. We can clearly hear the creatures dancing passionately and loudly on the
broken screens of our time.

@The-Untouchables remix of Kinnara, a being half human and half bird, is as heavyweight as you can expect from them and we are over the moon to have the pleasure to premiere it on our platform!

NÜ PREMIERE :  EONE - Lost (Radio Edit) (DARK REAL DARK)

Acid Lab delivers a masterful atmospheric journey that creates an unhurried, expansive soundscape filled with fascinating sonic textures. The production demonstrates remarkable restraint, allowing each carefully placed element to breathe and evolve throughout the composition.

Drawing subtle influences from footwork while establishing its own unique identity, "Lights Down Low" balances intricate percussive patterns with rich ambient layers. The track builds a mesmerizing atmosphere that feels both spacious and detailed, inviting listeners into a world of nuanced sound design.

This release further solidifies @Defrostatica Records' reputation as a forward-thinking Leipzig label continuously exploring the boundaries of electronic music. Acid Lab's contribution perfectly aligns with their commitment to innovative, genre-defying releases that challenge expectations while remaining deeply immersive.

[PREMIERE] Acid_Lab - Lights Down Low

Recorded live at the we.are.obscure Open Air on September 13th 2025.
An energetic journey through the evolving lines of UK sound — from 2-Step and 4×4 grooves to UK Garage, Forward, and Bass House.
Pushing beyond 130 BPM, the set fuses deep sub-frequencies with shuffling, percussive energy — raw, futuristic, and built for the floor.
Broken beats, rolling basslines, and crisp percussion intertwine to create hypnotic drive and tension — a sound caught between nostalgia and the next wave: urban, relentless, and unapologetically playful.

Petroschi @ we.are.obscure (open air Leipzig, 13.09.2025)

This months contribution comes from a name you should be familiar with by now, since he is undeniably one of the most active figures in german bass music circles - RBYN! By running his record label @through_these_eyes and his blog (https://robynthinks.wordpress.com/) he keeps spreading all sorts of new, challenging and interesting music.
His podcast delivers a bone-rattling, cutting-edge halftime vibe that can only be described in 3 words - DARK REAL DARK! Infectious head nodding guaranteed!

For our first release, we got Finnish producer @Montblanko coming through with icy soundscapes 
somewhere within the realms of wave, razor-sharp grimey percussions, haunting distant vocal samples and vibrant breaks which make this absolute gem feel like a memory of a rave in 2050. Since first hearing it we knew we had to get this out, even though it has been a dub for over a year now. Precursa already got support from @Plastician, @Spookybizzle & @Desto and is guaranteed to carry your mind away and get dancefloors moving!

If you are talking about dedication in pushing dubstep vibes in Berlin, there is literally no way around mentioning @deejay-saiman. Being an active DJ since 1996 and a resident at Impulse Berlin since 
2010 he has played countless venues & parties throughout the city. He also acts as one of the promoters of the annual Tief Frequenz Festival, a regular meet up of German Bass musicians.
With dub/triphop/dubstep Band BRAINTHEFT he toured through Europe and played at Dubstep raves in all of Germany, Berlin included, as well as internationally. 

Over 2/3 of his podcast consists of dubs, which he got cut to vinyl dubplates. The motivation to do this comes from multiple aspects. Firstly, Vinyl is the format he grew up with being a DJ and it feels the most natural to him. Secondly, it forces him to have a more limited, but maybe even more conscious selection of tunes due to the fact that 
cutting dubplates is not exactly a cheap hobby.

His mix fluctuates from dark & moody atmospheric bits through dubbed out steppers to bass-face demanding rollers, eventually sprinkling in a few vocal tracks which immediately get stuck in your 
brain.
WARNING: If you listen to this on laptop or phone speakers you will go straight to sideman hell.

Dark Real Dark Podcast #16 - DJ Saiman

Petroschi @ Fusion (Roter Platz, 29.06.2019)

August's podcast features a long-time friend and the newest addition to our crew: @desire-d!
Being drawn to music from an early age through years of drum & guitar lessons, Simon eventually progressed into the world of "computer music".
After starting out behind the decks in 2008 spinning disco and deep house music, he kept venturing through various genres such as dubstep, electro, ghetto house, UK hardcore, hip hop and of course bass music in all its shapes and colours. This led to him acquiring a seriously interesting record collection that never fails to entertain. He (understandably) misses the years between 2010 & 2013 where UK bass and berlin techno went hand in hand and life was just a little bit better.

His podcast features a wide range of rave anthems most of us were too young to witness live, new school jungle bits and hidden footwork/160 gems from artists such as DJ Rashad & Proc Fiskal. It constantly switches between floating on breaks and being thrown into high-energy rushes but ultimately dissolves into an atmospheric soundscape (and "occasional" dolphin samples). For the next 77 minutes, no limb shall be unshaken!

Dark Real Dark Podcast #19 - DJ Desire

The 20th podcast of our series comes from @djvilify, who produced the eerie opening tune of our compilation "Dark Real Dark - Viewpoints Volume 1" and is a journey full of unexpected twists and turns.
She is the founder and long-time resident of one of Canada’s longest-running and most prolific bass music nights: ‘Bass Drive Wednesdays’ and set a 
strong foundation before relocating to Berlin in 2014.
With roots in Toronto’s vibrant Jungle & Drum’n’Bass scene from the age of 13 (alongside classical, opera and metal influences at home) VILIFY’s sound reflects an experience, rather than a need to be defined by labels. 
Starting off with a mellow 2-step production of hers, the podcast later progresses beyond any boundaries of genre and emotion. 
In the first half, distant jungle memories meet sinister, grimy basslines that dissolve into meditative dubstep vibes. 
As the tempo rises, the mix goes full-circle on these moods, then more spices are added to the formula, such as gritty halftime bits.
Eventually, it evolves into a breakcore-esque storm of drums before ending the trip with another, more melancholic VILIFY production.

here's the recording of @linko's set at canbemustbutnot edition: space is the place # 2. get ready for some breaky and bouncy stuff from 130 to 170 bpm.

Linko @ Space Is The Place (Panke, 21.12.2019)

The latest addition to our series comes from Berlin-based kiwi @sammybee-1. After leaving the stomping grounds of New Zealand she spent some time in Hamburg before eventually relocating to Berlin in the summer of 2013. In the following years she truly embedded herself into the local scene and has become a household name for deep dubstep and halftime drum'n'bass.

Her event series @deviatemate provides an alternative perspective on well-trodden formulas within bass music and couldn't be described better than through the term's definition itself - "depart from usual or accepted standards". The motivation and drive for the event came from wanting to create a platform (not just a party) that supports the less known or up and coming DJs/Producers while also giving space to female-identifying artists and encourage their participation in the less mainstream DnB and bass music scene.

The mix features over 45 minutes of intense, primarily percussion-driven tunes, ranging from spiritualistic to nightmarish, from dubby to rolling and finally, a very grounding, yet uplifting outro. A great representation of what to expect for this Saturday's Deviate 2nd birthday party at Panke, which you should not miss!

Dark Real Dark Podcast #25 - Sammy B

FastForwardReWind (@ffrw) are a dj duo from Berlin always on the lookout for the most exciting records of our time, yet music history has a dedicated spot in their record box.
The unusual format as a duo consisting of Selecta/Hypeman here mixer/turntablist there, brings the latest tracks of the whole spectrum of sample- and synthesizer-based music to the table in ambitiously mixed and scratched sets.
This results in a variability of speeds, rhythms and moods, which at the same time aims to constantly irritate, unsettle and again whip up the dance crowd.
For the past 5 years, FastForwardReWind have been hosts and artists at EAT the BASS, a space-time that takes place three times a year featuring djs and musicians who are also dedicated to the exploration of several edges of the plate. The highlights of these 5 years were a series of festival performances, including Fusion Festival and Garbicz, which sparked a dance enthusiasm that defies description.
Mike (Mixer/Turntablist) and Reinhold (Selecta/Hypeman) performed in the Berlin nightlife in the past under different pseudonyms and projects. The first nights took place at Acud, Fischladen and at Eimer.
Their mix truly manifests their aims as you can never guess which sonic structures linger past the next transition. From dreamy pads over mutated drum patterns to fat 808s - this set has it all. It draws influence from all over the place and paints quite a wild picture overall but doesn’t fail to show it’s beautiful sides as well.

Following up on last month’s release, Leipzig-based producer and visual artist @Phil-Murphy96 delivers a serious 5 tracker of lo-fi house, breaks, and footwork in the spectrum of roughly 120 to 160 bpm.
Due to a chance encounter with our member Petroschi, while digging in a record store, a shared love for certain genres was discovered and the idea for a collaboration was born. Expect warm, funky, and organic sounds that will get your extremities jiggling and your head bobbing!

Phil Murphy - Wasted Enough ft. Sirius Topic

If you were around in the 90s you might be hit by nostalgia once you put on this track. DJ Detox casually flipped this massive one-hit-wonder and turned it into a cheeky rave version filled with punchy drums, rolling breaks, and dreamy pads. After keeping it as one of our best-kept secrets for almost a year we finally release this beauty to the public, accompanied by a sick artwork of our good friend Pawel (www.instagram.com/chez.pawel/).

"4am – that magical sweet spot in any card-carrying night owl’s body clock. Perhaps the purest hour of the entire 24 collection; no one is up without purpose or prevalence, time is allowed to do its own thing, distractions are at an all-time low and Maltin Worf feels entirely free.

4​ AM EP​ is Maltin Worf’s most emotional and explorative release so
far and one that transcends the current stasis we’re in and sets our hopes, and alarm clocks, for a freer future. Night owls and day-walkers unite:
Maltin Worf’s magical sweet spot demands recognition."
