SNB084 comes to us from Radiax, the poster boy of the burgeoning Chinese drum & bass scene.  Originally from Jilin, a remote city in Northern China, the now Beijing based talent has quickly made a name for himself with a string of accomplished releases on Unchained Asia; capped off by an appearance on Hospital Record’s Sick Music 2020.  He now debuts his intoxicating production style on Skankandbass Introducing with ‘Oil / Xingfu Lu’.

A “nu” name to the Viper roster, Nuaura first made waves with his debut single on the prestigious Follow The Sun Compilation with smooth and dynamic “Beautiful Dreamer”, hotly followed by the rave-ready jungle record “Ring The Alarm” on this year’s Annual 2021. The Manchurian producer has proven he’s one to watch, and is now gearing up for his single debut on the mighty Viper with “One More Time” and “Wherever You Are”.

First to bat is “One More Time”, an illustrious, elegant number with deep, enthralling vocals and soothing piano melodies that lure you in right from the start. While Nuarua masterfully crafts such a serene and welcoming intro, he slowly introduces much darker sounds, transforming the graceful opening into something much more sinister without ever losing the track’s distinctive and charming appeal. The juxtaposition of such airy melodies against the much more menacing basslines gives birth to a track you’ll want to listen to over and over again, a strong indicator of Nuaura’s talents.

The flipside of the single, “Wherever You Go”, is a much more energetic number, showcasing Nuaura’s take on dancefloor DnB, but still with a dark edge. Masterfully layering each element as the track progresses, Nuaura’s productions take you on a sonic journey, building anticipation in peaks and troughs and commanding your full attention from start to finish.

Thoughtful and provocative, both tracks demonstrate Nuaura’s innate songwriting ability, proving this rookie is more than just a force to be reckoned with. Catching Futurebound’s keen ears from day one, there is no doubt that big things are in store for Nuaura, as made evident with his debut single on the label.

The second single on our brand new label is here!

We made Everlasting during the latter part of the first lockdown when everything still felt very strange and pretty scary. We’d both lost all sense of what was 'normal', and obviously there were no gigs on the horizon. So all we had was music.
 
It was the first time we’d actually had a long stretch to concentrate purely on writing tunes, so we got a huge amount done, and it was a bit of a life saver, to be honest. It gave us a real purpose, and without it we think we would have struggled so much more.

Often you write music not about the situation you find yourself in, but about the world you want to create in the future, and Everlasting is very much that.  It’s us trying to capture the idea of better days to come, meeting with those close to us again and feeling that sense of joy and release. 

We hope you like it and it brings you that some feeling when you listen to it.

Surreal - You'll Find Someone

Buy or stream 'Dream In Green' here: https://HughHardie.lnk.to/DreamInGreenso


Hugh Hardie is back on Hospital Records with his latest ‘Dream In Green’ EP, home to four irresistibly soulful cuts. His third solo release to come out of lockdown follows the successes of his recent ‘Learning To Fly’ and ‘7 Tunes In 7 Days’ projects. The Bristol-based skateboarding selector’s new music features exciting collaborations with singer/songwriter Zoe Kypri and MC, d.e.o.n (formerly RSWT).

Title track ‘Dream In Green’ contains sombre pianos and rolling breaks from the offset which pave the way for Zoe Kypri’s awe-inspiring vocals. Being one of the touring artists for Sigma and Rudimental, and a previous collaborator with prolific dance music icons such as Artful Dodger, Disclosure and Crissy Criss, it’s no surprise that this pairing with Hugh Hardie is seamless in nature.

Illustrious synth swells and ticking percussion sets the scene on ‘No Compromise’, laying down the foundations for mesmerising arpeggios and an enchanting R&B-meets-garage style vocal which elevates the track into a world of its own.

The vibe is strong on ‘Another Loop’ which features the cold flows of d.e.o.n, previously known as RSWT, who is no stranger to injecting serious amounts of soul into tracks having previously worked with Mitekiss, Prspktv and more. Minimalist drums, rich piano keys and a warming upright bass line are perfectly intertwined into a future liquid drum & bass classic.

‘Repeater’ sees a switch up for the final track of the EP. Glitched out plucks and chopped up pads are powered by the legwork of fast-paced halftime drums and a serious business bassline, infusing elements from dub techno to jungle.

With the two aforementioned EPs as well as his ‘Shadows & Silhouettes’ and ‘Colourspace’ LPs resting timelessly in his back catalogue, Hugh has garnered the support from legendary tastemakers including LTJ Bukem, BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac, DJ Marky and Flava D, and shows no signs of stopping there.

Hospital Records’ jazz-infused drum & bass supplier and Goldfat Records co-founder Mitekiss drives into 2021 with his ‘Night Bus Stories’ EP, with four brand new tracks that are some of his best work to date. Following on from the triumph of his ‘Objects To Push’ EP which received support from legendary figures including LTJ Bukem and DJ Fresh, Mitekiss’ latest release is profound and from the heart.

‘City Angels (feat. Milo Merah & RSWT)’ beckons with sombre guitar licks and piano chord progressions drenched in melancholy. Milo Merah lays down captivatingly sincere vocals as he proves himself to be one of London’s rising musical talents. Nottingham born and bred, MC and vocalist RSWT showcases his deep-rooted musical ability as his vivid bars are flawlessly intertwined amongst Mitekiss’ orchestral strings.

Trickling ride cymbals and soulful keys set the scene on ‘Rain (Falling Down)’ as Mitekiss’ love for jazz eminently shines through. Mr Porter graces the track with a sublime vocal hook which drifts above delicate drums and off-beat bass notes.

In honour of the night bus on which he was a frequent traveller, Mitekiss exposes his deeper and darker side on ‘N68’. Tearout breaks, moody synth drones and a ruthless bassline make a mind-bending sonic imprint demonstrating Mitekiss’ diverse range of production mastery.

Teaming up with esteemed talent Javeon who’s no stranger to vocalling an array of drum & bass anthems, ‘Ring Alarms’ is a raw and irresistible stepper that encompasses enchanting melodies and warm flourishes. There’s no denying that the combination of Mitekiss and Javeon is a delight for lovers of drum & bass on the soul side of the spectrum.

Beyond his latest ‘Night Bus Stories’ EP, Mitekiss continues to demonstrate his taste-making abilities through the running of his very own label, Goldfat Records, which has proven to be ahead of the curve by putting out some of the most forward-thinking and sonically diverse drum & bass this year. Mitekiss furthers his reputation for having a keen eye for the best upcoming talent in his weekly production feedback sessions, which have proven popular with the scene and are growing continually. With previous releases also on Shogun Audio, Skankandbass and his own Goldfat imprint, Mitekiss is building up a solid discography which is guaranteed to set the precedent for the sounds of tomorrow.

BCee & L.I.T.A. - Cannot Escape Your Love (Millbrook Remix)

Own It Now: technique.lnk.to/Resistance

Anything with Tantrum Desire's name on is download-on-sight material for a huge swathe of DnB's elite. So, with this being both his and Technique Recordings' first new music of 2021, and with Radio 1 and A-list deejay support already secured, all eyes are on 'Resistance'.

Of course, this elite-level producer rises to the occasion masterfully. Blending harmonic elements with junglistic breaks and his trademark party-captivating vibrancy, 'Resistance' also hints at a new evolution of the already diverse TD sound.

As a post-pandemic world re-opens and the international rave scene reasserts itself, Tantrum Desire's 'Resistance' is bound for some heavy rotation.
