Tantrum Desire last surfaced on Technique with a taste of their forthcoming LP. That little sample, comprising “Adventures in Space” and “Nightmare”, has already established the fact that this album is going to be a defining moment in the big-room turbo-charged style that this production team have made their own. In case you needed any more convincing, though, it's time for another glimpse at what's to come. To coincide with the release of their Album Sampler Part 2 the guys take over the controls of the Technique Podcast……….

Episode 34 - Dec 2014 - Technique Podcast - Mixed By Tantrum Desire

Today we’re lucky enough to be premiering what someone in the office just referred to as a ‘serious nugget.’ Yeah, OK, so that person was me. And yes, I did say it to myself, in my head, after listening to it over and over again; but the fact remains and it is what it is. The Critical Music signed drum & bass producer, Emperor’s'She Said VIP’ – which will be exclusively available from the Critical store this Monday – is superlatively frenetic, heaving it’s way out of the rousing build up introduction with the sort of lurching industrial bassline that’ll set most dancefloors afire. The full Into Black EP will be released on vinyl and digital this coming Monday, but we’re toasting the publication of the EP’s pre-order link here today because it ties in nicely with the fact that we recently announced the next Critical Sound date (10th July) where you’ll be able to witness Emperor going B2B with The Upbeats.

The Prototypes - Abyss 2015

Being a production line of carefully crafted composition with a meticulous production standard, Calyx & Teebee have delivered yet again. And after dominating the Beatport Top 100 with their most recent single ‘A Day That Never Comes / Snakes & Ladders’, they won’t be applying the brakes anytime soon, especially in the lead up to their greatly anticipated second album on the Ram imprint.

Back on vocal duties, Calyx demonstrates the pair’s multi-dimensional approach to beat making. With plucky percussion relaying you through bouncing subs and a drivingly solid bassline, it defines their vast repertoire of style. They’re not scared to dip into unfamiliar territories, with Calyx’s cool vocals sitting on top of lulling guitar rhythms to provide the first part of a diverse and brilliantly crafted record. 

‘Sawn Off’ rolls out next; it’s a grittier track than its predecessor, with a conundrum of hi-hats and aggressive drum patterns. Pounding pads take you towards a colossal break, heighten by the effect of a cleverly placed sample. The track ricochets throughout, not losing momentum or impact, with an intricately weaved structure, one only achievable by a team who’ve been running the game for decades.  

With an album laying just out of reach, each single is bringing us closer and closer to the inevitable. All four tracks prove they’re still a formidable force to be reckoned with; this LP will only emphasise that fact. 


Sawn Off

Let's not beat around the bush. Ahead of their "Diversified Album, Tantrum Desire take control of this months Technique Podcast.It's absolutely clear Jay and Dev have put the graft in over the last decade to claim and maintain their D&B-elite status. And, as DJs, they've proven their ability to take that sound into the real world and make it connect with the biggest crowds bass-heavy music has to offer. 
There are a handful of acts that can simultaneously kill it in the underground and the mainstream, and we're about to find out why Tantrum Desire is one of them...

SKEPTICAL promomix '15 Years Of Star Warz X Dispatch Recordings'

Sam Binga delivers his mix for THUMP. In September 2015, Critical Music presented his debut long player ‘Wasted Days’. An album of pure street-felt expressionism drawing influence from global multi cultures, his cascading eclecticism runs throughout making for a raw, uncompromising journey true to the Sam Binga sound with a unique clash of jungle, grime, footwork, juke and drum and bass that shows a deep understanding of the whole dance music spectrum, while never losing sight of the vital party vibes.

THUMP // Sam Binga // Guest Mix

As an original part of the Metalheadz crew (his name is inked on the spine of the label's first ever release), Doc Scott's been a constant influence and driving force behind 170bpm music whether working on Reinforced, HDZ, Bukem's Goodlooking imprint or on his own 31 Records. Over time since he first appeared the Coventry born producer's watched the scene he loves weather changes, or as his biography puts it "from it's transitions from rave to hardcore, jungle-techno to tech step to d&b, from UK based to a global scene and industry, Doc Scott has seen it all and been there for the entire journey." He's quite famously described by his long time friend Goldie as "king of the rollers" and he's the type of DJ that when he speaks, you simply put up and listen. 

And that's what we've been doing all day, since we received this exclusive mix, one he's delivered ahead of his Room Two appearance alongside LTJ Bukem, Klute and Dom & Roland a week on Friday. Sometimes gumpf just gets in the way so all we'll say, is sit back, get comfortable and press play...

ArpXP — EW NYC Bassdrive 03102015

They say nothing in life is certain but death and taxes and whilst we don't claim to know just who 'they' are, we'd suggest to them that Norwich duo Mind Vortex's success seemed just as certain from the outset. If you’ve been anywhere near a drum and bass dancefloor in the past couple of years then you'll no doubt already be all too familiar with the pairing's productions as they chalked up a number of well received releases for Andy C's all conquering Ram Records imprint.

As handy in the DJ booth as they are the studio, we invited the boys to serve up a mix for our listening pleasure ahead of their hotly anticipated performance for Ram London Friday October 23rd at The Steelyard where they'll be taking to the decks alongside the likes of Calyx & Teebee, Rene LaVice and DC Breaks for what looks well set to be a night to remember. Featuring 35 minutes of high octane drum and bass fuelled madness, be warned you might find yourself involuntarily skanking out wherever you hear this mix. NSFW. 

Mix of the Day: Mind Vortex

Following news that Artificial Intelligence will drop their new album, Timeline, via Metalheadz on November 20th, the drum & bass duo are back with a full stream of lead track 'Pass The Buck'.

Featuring the brooding vocals of Manchester's DRS, this rough and ready steppa brings together marauding bass and lethally precise percussion. If the rest of the LP is even half as tough as this, it may be worth donning a flak jacket the first time you give it a spin.

Timeline promises to visit A.I.'s long history in the scene, and will also offer collaborations with SCAR (aka Survival and Script), hotly-tipped up-and-comer, Dawn Wall, and vocal appearances from Terri Walker, Steo and Sense. Speaking to Data Transmission when the news broke, 'Headz boss, Goldie said: "Artificial Intelligence have given us some great music in the past so naturally I’m really happy that we’ll be releasing their latest album!”

Timeline's release will be preceded by two samplers on October 30th and November 6th. Check out all tracklists here: http://www.datatransmission.co.uk/news/debut-transmission-artificial-intelligence-pass-the-buck-feat-drs/

Dom & Roland Metalheadz Bristol Promo Mix 30th April

Straight from the Middle Kingdom, our next mix comes from Shanghai based Arkaik, ahead of his debut ‘Shapes EP’ on Dispatch LTD. 

An avid label follower since our early years (joining us in 2011 as Octane & DLR remix competition winner), the mix highlights his deep knowledge and respect for the scene.

Don’t fret, this is no nostalgia tour, but focuses on highlighting the relevance of past Dispatch releases today; as fresh the day they were released, mixed with new music, classics and forthcoming Arkaik material. 

“My aim with this mix is to show how the Dispatch back catalogue is still relevant and modern among Drum & Bass’ current affairs. Showcasing my favourite Dispatch releases, from the past to present day, mixed with forthcoming bangers and some older rollers. Basically how Dispatch has impacted the scene today.”

Arkaik - Dispatch Recordings Label Mix, May 2016

Dutch producer Fre4knc brings us the latest 15 Years of Dispatch mix before the 15 Years tour lands in his hometown of Groningen.

Joined by DLR, Ant TC1 & Amoss this Saturday, Fre4knc draws from back catalogues on the label and lineup, to surface some of the recently forgotten, as well as some very exclusive material. 

Reflecting his composure on the decks, the mix hits with high energy and remains exciting from start to finish - for anyone attending this weekend, we'll see you at Vera in Groningen!

Philth - 15 Years of Dispatch Recordings Mix

Ant TC1 along with Hidden Agenda founded Dispatch Recordings back in 2001, Ant originally helped out with the management side of the label before finding his feet within the realms of production; which was a natural progression for him having DJ’d on pirate radio and in clubs from the age of 14 (since 1992).  His first release alongside frequent production partner Stress Level appeared on Dispatch after almost 3 years of hard work getting their collective sound where they felt it needed to be before even thinking about turning on a DAT recorder.  After their first release hit the stores they quickly picked up a wealth of DJ support across their early material and went on to release for a who’s who list of established Drum & Bass record labels including the likes of Renegade, CIA, Advanced, Critical Records Integral, Liquid V, Commercial Suicide, Good Looking Records, Bingo Beats and Samurai Music.

By demand remix work started to feature heavily within their output and the duo went on to remix for the likes of Hidden Agenda, Chris SU, Artificial Intelligence, Kabuki, Total Science, Optical & Ryme Time (Jagged Edge), Atlantic Connection, Tactile & DJ Marky.  Branching out and working with other producers such as Survival, DLR & Philth has only furthered experience Ant’s skills at the controls over the years, Ant has also released his own solo material more recently on top of remixing for the likes of Lomax on Integral Records.  In 2014 Ant realised a lifetime ambition, securing his first ever release for the legendary Metalheadz label “Hungry For Atmosphere” alongside Mako, DLR & Villem with further releases for the label and counting going into 2024.

Ant’s production output has featured on a mass of compilations and mix CD’s compiled by the likes of Shy FX, LTJ Bukem, Total Science, AI, Spectrasoul, Klute and Brian G.  Additionally his work has featured very heavily within the radio shows of Friction, Grooverider, Fabio, Goldie, Bailey & Rene LaVice on their respective BBC Radio 1 slots over the years as well as BBC 1Xtra where Ant once hosted his own one-off 4 hour show, he has since additionally made 2 guest DJ appearances for DJ Friction on his Radio 1 show.  His DJ’ing work has seen him play all over the globe from Adelaide to Los Angeles, from Hong Kong to Sarajevo, Vancouver to Bangkok and last but by no means least regularly UK and EU wide. Additionally for the most part of the decade beyond 2010 Ant also worked as the Artist Manager for both Outlook and Dimensions Festival in Croatia, leading up the booking process, budgets and travel aspects for the festival.

Fast forward through to 2024; Ant is now responsible for the lead label management roles of both Metalheadz & Dispatch Recordings and is based in Thailand, with a purpose built studio room recently finished the plan (alongside managing a mass of planned record label releases) is to get back to focusing on writing music more consistently than he ever has previously.
