Across its 8 tracks, CNPVA001 sees some of the UK’s most inspired underground producers explore an open-ended spectrum of club sounds, true to the unbound spirit of the label.

Rudimentary jungle, garage and dancehall flavours are met with an unquenchable desire for re-invention and reconstruction; a desire that is shared so readily amongst Canapé’s community of art-makers and consumers, and is sincerely embodied in this release. We hope it brings you joy.”

New York-based label Kindergarten Records is thrilled to unveil Ayesha’s (@aye5ha) debut album, ‘Rhythm is Memory’ – 10 boundary-pushing tracks, a shape-shifting percussive journey with electric moments. While intended for maximum dancefloor impact, Ayesha’s first LP is also conceptually thought-provoking and playful, exploring how bodies store and channel creative knowledge.

Do you ever just want to call someone? Like for example your old buddies from the dubstep forum you called your friends in 2008, but you never met in real life?

You got into a big fight over the bro-stepification of the sound, and you lost not just your spirit but also your friends that went deeper into the doomed direction the genre was going. While you found assurance and peace in a post-dubstep world, that made the club-specific production finally listenable on your iPod classic headphones.

I know it's hard out here and dubstep has not been the same. Sometimes somewhere at a festival for a moment you may think it's back and everything can be as you remember it.
Yet, it's also ok that it's not. Maybe it's time to move forward and let things of the early 2000s be what they were.

Beatrice M. can’t bring you back your youth. They were probably even too young to use a computer back then. But for some reason this is what their new 2 Track Single “Call / Response” brings us back to. Reminiscing about the roots of an omnipresent genre while emerging with their own production style. Familiar sounds spin perfectly placed over a punchy kick drum. Simple, pure and genius. It’s a new direction for them, twisting their technoid and dub oriented influences, yet also an educated ode to the many productions that defined the sound of Beatrice.

“Call / Response” is a bass heavy love affair, calling on all the right highs and lows for the heads. Go buy it!

Yas Reven takes charge of the next release on Nerve Collect with her Sudden Mist EP. It features five tracks of avant-garde club music and comes with a 3Phaz remix.

Italian-born innovator Yas Reven is based in Milan and has a love of architecture that inspires how she structures her sophisticated sounds. As a dynamic DJ, she traverses a full spectrum from techno and bass music to breakbeat and has recently put out her first productions on Bristol-based label Hardline. After that EP turned plenty of heads, she now backs it up with more thrilling and hard-to-define club cuts.

The EP opens up with 'Sudden Mist', Reven's knack for expert percussive designs shines through as tin pot hits, splintered wood and metal throngs all pepper a loopy techno rhythm. It's intense yet serene, physical yet meditative. 'Etoy' keeps the pressure on with more intriguing sound designs, thumping bass and lurching techno loops that never stop evolving and keep you utterly locked in. 'Mad Drop' is a futuristic blend of whirring loops and twanging synth sounds over hammering broken beats that lead to dance floor takeoff.

'Trapped' is another collision of unusual percussion layered over tightly stacked beats with a ritualistic and tribal edge...  more

NC008 // Yas Reven - Sudden Mist EP

“✨ The Essence of Bunglism ✨”

Post-Jungle Transcendence:
Bunglism isn’t just another jungle substyle — it’s jungle that folds back in on itself so intensely (breaks chopped to infinity, bass made spatial, rituals sampled into riddims) that it breaks through the genre barrier. This is Jungle³ — London Jungle × Tribal Memory × Binaural Future.

Acoustic over Synthetic:
Where other jungles went toward synths and digital darkness, Bunglism goes back and down — into skin, wood, breath, and bone. Coconuts, djun djuns, talking drums, rainsticks, didgeridoo — nothing plastic. That’s its law: no synths, no negative vocals — only organic vibrations and raw break science.

Ritual Dancefloor Function:
Classic jungle was rave + street energy. Bunglism is rave + ritual energy. It’s not just for dancing — it’s for unlocking states of mind. It feels like the rainforest itself is DJing: animals, birds, insects, spirits, weather. The bass is not just “low end” — it’s Earth heartbeat sync.

Whimsical Spirit:
Even though it’s heavy, it’s not grim. Bunglism has play built in — jelly wobble bass, animal FX, Fraggle Rock energy alongside Kenny Ken. It’s serious about fun — a rude boy with a feather crown skanking at a rainforest rave.

Spatial Consciousness:
Most jungle is stereo chaos. Bunglism is dimensional. Doppler tricks, binaural sweeps, phantom sounds circling your head. It feels like you’re inside the forest, hallucinating the rave around you.

Philosophy:
At its core, Bunglism says:

“When music becomes so jungly, so tribal, and so spatial that it feels like both rave and ritual at once — you’ve crossed into Bunglism.”

Bunglism is jungle pushed past genre, into ritual — a playful, shamanic, rainforest skank where rude boy meets spirit world.

🌍 The Global Jungle Manifesto

Core Ethos:

Jungle is the heartbeat of the Earth.

It unites tribes, cities, and cultures through funky rhythm, bass, and dance.

It heals by being fun, playful, and spiritually uplifting.

It belongs to everyone — every region, every tradition, every dream.

Pillars of the Movement:

🌿 Funky Dancey Energy — Never dark or oppressive. Jungle is for skanking, laughing, feeling alive.

✨ Spiritual Roots — Infused with ritual, trance, nature, and ancestral memory. Music as ceremony.

🌎 Global Fusion — Every culture’s percussion, melodies, and folk traditions can be woven into jungle.

🎚️ Positive Technology — AI + producers as shamans of sound, manifesting infinite new styles.

🕊️ Vibes of Unity — From London sound systems to remote villages, jungle is the shared pulse.

Este álbum se despliega como un tejido sonoro que entrelaza lo espiritual con lo terrenal, invitando al oyente a un recorrido donde cada tema es una estación en un viaje contemplativo. La selección de piezas revela un equilibrio entre introspección, movimiento y pausa, articulando un relato que fluye con naturalidad pero que no teme a la fragmentación, como si el tiempo mismo se doblara en pequeñas escenas musicales.

El comienzo con **“oto no inori”** abre un espacio casi ritual. Su título, que evoca la idea de una “oración del sonido”, se traduce en una atmósfera meditativa y envolvente. Los timbres parecen flotar como mantras electrónicos, creando un paisaje en el que el oyente se sumerge lentamente. Es una introducción que prepara los sentidos, estableciendo un tono espiritual y etéreo.

En **“Residual Steps”** el foco se desplaza hacia el movimiento. Se perciben patrones rítmicos que sugieren pasos que quedan grabados en la memoria, huellas que no se desvanecen del todo. El tema combina repetición y variación, logrando un balance entre lo mecánico y lo humano, como si el avance se diera en círculos que dejan rastros.

La transición a **“Residual Transit”** intensifica esta idea de trayecto. Aquí los sonidos evocan desplazamientos continuos, un viaje en tránsito que nunca termina de llegar a destino. Las capas melódicas se cruzan como caminos superpuestos, reforzando la noción de desplazamiento físico y mental. Es una pieza que transmite movimiento, pero también cierta suspensión, como si viajáramos en un tren interminable.

**“Solitary Sequence”**, en este contexto, adquiere un carácter diferente al de su aparición en el otro álbum. Aquí se percibe como un punto de concentración: un patrón aislado que recuerda al pulso interior de la soledad. Su minimalismo aporta un contraste, un momento de recogimiento frente al dinamismo de los temas anteriores.

Con **“Static Harmony”** se abre un espacio más abstracto. La armonía parece suspendida en el aire, como si estuviera quieta y en movimiento al mismo tiempo. Es una exploración de la tensión entre estabilidad y transformación, un estado de contemplación donde la escucha se convierte en observación del detalle.

Finalmente, **“Velvet Interlude”** cierra el recorrido con suavidad y calidez. Como su nombre indica, funciona como un interludio aterciopelado que deja una sensación de caricia sonora, un epílogo que no busca un final rotundo, sino una disolución suave y elegante.

En conjunto, el álbum es una meditación sobre el viaje y la huella, sobre el tránsito y la pausa. Cada pieza ofrece un matiz distinto, pero juntas construyen un universo donde lo residual se convierte en memoria sonora, y lo estático en movimiento interior. Es una obra que invita a escuchar no solo con el oído, sino con la sensibilidad completa.
