PARULE - OFF SHORE EP
29.08.2025

Parule taps in with a five-track EP that explores different tempos and ventures into new sonic territories while maintaining some of his signature elements.

Stoned Squirrel opens the EP with a slow, head-nodding groove driven by a filtered acid hook and rattling percussions.
Off Shore follows as a stripped-back roller, evoking a hypnotic, submerged atmosphere.
Chants nods to Parule’s earlier work—fast-paced electro that dances between breakbeats and squelching acid lines.
Laufbahn is stripped down, raw and agonizing. Like running in circles with a broken foot.
Fujiyama pushes into the 160 BPM realm, weaving in lyrics and vocal textures from ŽEN's "Lov na crne tipke", a track Parule obsessed over throughout the past year.

Mastered by Amir Buzubayev (aka KRITECHNO)
Mangled percussion samples mostly from Ondekoza.
Lyrics and Voices in "Fujiyama" by ŽEN.

RONIN ORDINANCE INTERVIEW:
1. HOW WAS RONIN ORDINANCE BORN?
Ronin Ordinance emerged out the shadows late 2015 but was concepted around 2014 as i was involved with another label and felt the need to branch off to do my own thing, i felt the need to push under the radar artists that deserve alot more attention for what they do, our community is so unique there is so much to be found yet people just stick to what they know most of the time, the deeper you go down the rabbit hole the bigger the reward with drum & bass RO is a clan based label keeping with a steady ethos of ‘’no pidgeon holes’’ with a shelf life quality standard, its been an incredible journey so far.

2. WHO IS BEHIND THIS CONCEPT?
Literally just me in regards to how everything looks, works and sounds. I do have people around me that do help out alot (you guys know who you are) someday i would like to assemble a team of like minded people to maybe do a big project, i think for now it will always be a solo thing.

3. WHAT KIND OF IDEAS OR CONCEPTS ALWAYS ACCOMPANY YOUR LABEL?
I like to keep things simple and straight to the point, no gimmicks no trends, just solid music from a buffet of talent we are lucky enough to work with. I think the main point of what we do is deep dark 170 sounds but i’m a man of exotic flavour so i’m always open to various styles, of course i dont want to stray too far away from what our fans enjoy. Lots of deepness forthcoming the next 2 quarters guys!

4. WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT UPCOMING PROJECTS?
Our next release is round the corner and out now exclusively to Beatport for 2 weeks, thats coming in from Sl8r, a producer who has been smashing it all over n someone ive been a fan of since his very earliest work. RNO021 you will be seeing some action from Finland’s best export Out Of Fuel provide us with a 2 part EP I'm really excited to have them join us and the tunes have been received greatly to those ive sent it to so far. RNO022 will be Istota’s first full RO release coming off the back of his amazing contribution to our Genso Vol.1 compilation from early this year, some real techno-esc industrialism on that one. We have releases lined up for the Genso series but you can wait n see on those. All other news be sure to keep up on the RO page for more. As for events and sets, ive nothing coming up so promoters get in touch! I recently went independant with bookings so everything is direct now.

5. WHAT MESSAGES DO YOU WANT TO TRANSMIT WITH THE MUSIC YOU PERFORM?
Good question, thats hard to put into words as its all in the moment, i guess wanting to educate, people that show you new music are always the best kind! It would be lovely to see more involvement in the UK as alot of cities and events are lacking this side of the spectrum.

6. DEFINE RONIN ORDINANCE WITH A SINGLE WORD
Lawless.

Chimera [Ronin Ordinance] - Special Syhda Music Podcast

The movement of historical time is catalyzed by the cycles of production that constitute our social totality. When these cycles and this linear march entwine and lose any semblance of mutual control, their inexorable trajectory is towards rupture. Emergent cycles of higher complexity and abstracted alienness to those of us subjected to them exacerbate the very dynamic from which they were borne, but offer the only way out: fracture.

Man From Sol - Vacuum Processor (oddlogic Remix)

We kickstart 2020 with the brilliant curveball "Anomaly", and welcome  Metalogue's official entry to the Combat Recordings fold.

A skilled producer and strong affiliate of the Towards Collapse events in London, the hard yet abstract, fierce yet melodic contrasts of Metalogue's production and live sets has put him on the Combat radar for a long time now; we are fortunate to have this great collection of tracks for release. 

Returning to the industrial tempos of his earlier work, Metalogue pushes his characteristically dark, cinematic soundscapes to new extents with crystalline melodies, hard percussion, clattering breaks, razor-sharp synths and enveloping sub-bass.

Drawing influences from works of zonal science fiction, Anomaly was written as a rhizomatic maze, where each track references the others by cyclically recombining, splicing and mutating their sonic material into new forms. This evokes a sense of echoing multiplicity in the listening experience where every track contains warped reflections of other moments in the work.

This process was amplified through several collaborations. East London producer Fluff incorporated harrowing vocal performances and a mesmerizing piano modulation of the core melodic theme, whilst acclaimed noise artist Eye Spirit wrote and performed a narrative contemplation which appears at various points in the record whilst evading presentation in its entirety.

Finally Combat Recordings stalwart Monster X transformed elements from across the whole record into a truly brutal IDM/rhythmic-noise re-imagining of the entire Anomaly concept.

Valance Drakes - Not Taking This Gratitude For Granted (EP Preview) / OUT NOW

Hyperglitch is an emerging genre that is informed by glitch, idm and experimental music that came before it, but is distinct from them. It uses new techniques, explores new concepts, and has a new aesthetic. “Hyper” in this sense doesn’t mean more, or faster, or louder, it’s meant in the “hypertext” way; as in: deeper and more interconnected. Hyperglitch is the evolution of glitch. It’s what happens when a generation of artists grow up surrounded by glitch, entrenched in the digital world. Their fluency and usage/exploitation of glitch has deeper roots and is more natural and nuanced than someone born outside of this environment. 

My hope is that by helping to define the genre through this series, it will help other artists within the subgenre to find each other, and help us all develop our work and leave the past behind (or at least the parts that are holding us back). I also hope that by casting a wide net it will dissuade others from creating a formula for the genre and freezing it in time (although I’m sure some of that is inevitable). I also want to stress that Hyperglitch is new. Some of the ideas have been circulating for years, some even as far back as the early 2000’s, but their current formulation and the combinations employed by these artists are something I have never heard before (even though I have been imagining the emergence of something similar for a long time). I hope this series will illuminate the thread that I think connects these artists, and will hopefully inspire other artists to join in and create their own Hyperglitch music. 

The first album in the series is Reason by Seskamol. It is an incredibly cinematic album that intercuts dissociative ambiences with harsh, fast and hyper-detailed percussive sections. Seskamol’s understanding of rhythm and percussion seems to have moved past the need for any groove or pulse, but instead of using the pallets of electro-acoustic music, or breakcore, he mangles the two with new and more refined techniques. Similar to the raw expressions of noise music or blast beats, but reinventing them through the drum programming of breakcore with modern sound design. The result is what I imagine it would be like to wake up in a post apocalyptic wasteland, an eerie calm and then the blasts of music from an aggressive and violent time before the collapse bombarding you from a radio passing through stations, or the blasting stereo system of a renegade gang vehicle passing you. The album oscillates through feelings of desperate anger and the disabling apathy of a particularly strong depression. By passing through it with Seskamol, we know we aren’t alone.
