Well it’s been a long time coming but finally Critical label boss and all-round entertainer Kasra has put hand to mixing desk and delivered his first full 12” release on the imprint since it began back in 2002. Not only that but he’s done it with one of the most prolific and hot property names in the scene right now, Brazilian born S.P.Y. The result as you’d expect is pure D&B thunder! ‘Surface’ rolls out seriously from the off with a snapping two-step break accompanied by paranoid pads that drift throughout the mix as an unnerving vox drops us suddenly into this no-nonsense Friday night king of the rollers. Torpedo bass stabs rule as it marches along with full force to a deep, intense breakdown that signals the second drop into a more twisted incarnation of the b-line before. Dangerous, cavernous drum & bass from two people with their fingers firmly on the pulse. Moving on and ‘Control’ is a menace from the start with a drawn out intro that sets us up perfectly for the incoming onslaught. A heavily syncopated break leads the way much like a slice of classic Photek brought smack up to date for 2011, whilst undulating bass hits make sure this one never lets go, kicking and scrapping right to the very end. Another very naughty release for the Critical empire. DJ support from Hype, Friction, Jubei, Fabio, Marky, Kasra, S.P.Y. and many more.

Lockah - Unrealable

In a sea of thousands of dance music labels, Gottwood Festival have proven their worth with their Gottwax imprint. Their compilations EP1 and EP2 have boasted seminal summertime numbers from Ruf Dug, Cottam, Rob Amboule and more. Now, Gottwax's forthcoming EP3 consists of four new tracks cut on bright orange acetate by Ponty Mython, Krywald & Farrer and Bonar Bradberry – and a welcome return for Appleblim. Relishing in our fortune to have a first listen, it is the four-four iridescence of Appleblim's "Phosphene" that stands out most. An epic homecoming for the Bristolian producer who has otherwise kept relatively quiet as of late, setting sail suitably on the third Gottwax ship.

EP3 drops via Gottwax on 16th April.

Pre-Order

Appleblim "Phosphene" - Boiler Room Debuts

Brooklyn native, Doctor Jeep, aka Andre Lira is and has been, one of the most exciting and consistent producers to come up through the ranks of the underground bass music scene, to become one of the most influential and innovative artists to emerge in many years. His  discography impressively spans many respected labels and many different flavors. He eschews genre tags for substance, fusing familiar elements of grime, dubstep, house, and just about every imaginable in-between you could think of. His sound is distinctly his own, and unsurprisingly has found it’s way into many taste-maker’s sets, squarely placing him at the forefront of the new movement in bass music, that embraces past and present simultaneously and is unafraid to experiment with different tempos and sound palettes. Ultimately creating a unique, but cohesive, hybrid sound.
~
This EP sees Jeep dabble in a slightly higher (or perhaps lower depending on your math) bpm-range than what most people may be expecting. It leads off with the title track, “Dissociate”, which brings to mind images of one separating from one’s consciousness through the song’s hypnotic rhythms and soundscapes. Slowly building into a menacing, shambling monster of a tune, the bass-line snarls with the catchy hook layered on top. The GREAZUS flip takes the main theme of the original and dives into footwork territory, experimenting with different rhythms in the sub-bass, giving it an energetic, but minimal sensation sure to please late-night crowds.
~
TX, is next up, which lulls us into a false sense of ease, with a shimmering synth lead, then we are unexpectedly thrown into the Bear’s den when we hear the eerie vocal beckon. Bass-line madness and tight, steppy percussion ensue and give way to an infectious call & response hook that’s sure to get stuck in your head. Levrige take the reigns on remix duty of TX and give us a scorching jungle-laced stepper, that reminds us of the golden-era. Sweat-drenched, warehouse rave vibes, that tie-in the original concept, but distort the lens to fucked
up perfection. Subcorr holds down anchor with his ReRemix, coming in at a cloying 120 bpm. A stepping, but broken house beat, meets a fat 808 sub and sly chords to create a cloak-and-dagger vibe, while the subtle, but meaningful breakbeat edits provide context. This EP has something for bass lovers of all stripes.

GoldFFinch - Dirty Bird Jay Weed Remix

Announcing our 12th vinyl release! TUBA 012 features the work of Doctor Jeep & Nigerian vocalist Magugu, throwing down at 170 bpm on two serious tracks. Rounding out the release is a digital exclusive remix from the badmanTMSV.

Doctor Jeep’s music has been described as “a style somewhere between the forward-thinking bass mutations of Cosmic Bridge, the grinding 808 electro of Swamp81, and the breakbeat-heavy sound of early 90′s UK rave music.” With releases on a wide range of international labels such as NYC's Trouble & Bass (R.I.P.), Vancouver’s Aufect Records, and Nottingham's Tumble Audio, and support from tastemaking DJs such as Claude VonStroke, Shy FX, Hannah Wants, J:Kenzo, Machinedrum, and My Nu Leng to name a few, the future looks bright for this multifaceted producer.

TUBA 012 (Digital Exclusive) Doctor Jeep & Magugu - Pidgin [TMSV Remix] (Clip)

@DrJeep makes his triumphant return to Aufect after his previous outing last Summer, that made the title cut “Dissociate” an anthem heard at festivals across the globe. He has gone from strength to strength and continued to release his music on a diverse selection of labels like Tuba, Tumble Audio & Enchufada. Our boy Andre proves that his reputation for producing infectious ear worms is not unfounded and he has provided these completely unique, yet at the same time, familiar tunes. They live up to the hype of last year’s release and build upon Jeep’s already immense stature.
~
This EP is comprised of three original Jeep MD tunes, plus two superb remixes courtesy of our pals Fixate and DJ Madd, whom need no introduction. The whole package beckons to be played at festivals and we’re already delighted with the responses we’ve seen so far. There is absolutely zero fucking around on this EP.
~
“Jawbreaker” gets things rolling with it’s hypnotic drums, which drop into portamento synth riffs bobbing and weaving themselves into the rhythms. Every sound used sparingly and to great effect. “B.C. Mosh” builds with an ominous flute riff that gives way to a catchy saw bass hook, that beckons to its forlorn partner and they have some brilliant moments calling and responding to one another. “Laff Trak” takes layers of sparse percussion and layers an atonal mid-bassline with a warm, low frequency sine wave. Constantly morphing as the low frequencies are filtered in unexpected and clever ways. Fixate’s understated but fierce re-imagining of “Laff Trak” bring us back to a dingy warehouse in 2009, where we’d expect to see Skream or Coki dropping Dubstep classics. However it seems he forgot the sequencer on 170 bpm instead of 140 and we’re treated to something that sounds equally classic and weighty, while deceptively simple. DJ Madd brings the heat on the final remix of “Jawbreaker”. Heavy 808 subs pulse, while a trademark DJ Madd hook skitters around your ears. Layers of programmed breakbeats keep the energy high and bring the release to a satisfying conclusion.

Bass Infection goes pandemic! Volume 2 of Mainframe Recordings' freshly launched album series brings you another load of contagious beats from all around the globe – enjoy the outbreak.
To the Roof! On the opening track High Maintenance is back with a straight-up prime time smasher unleashing serious fury. 
Dorian and fellow Austrian Twenty Freeze take it back in time and down to earth with their dope rolling “Dirty Habits”, draped in hazy rave stabs reverberating from the early days. 
On “Fresh”, DubApe is coming in with a seriously reduced stepper, oscillating between epic breakdowns and minimalist tech-funk aiming straight at the Neuro crowd. 
Freshmen from Prague, Hirogen, make their debut on Mainframe with “Bandit”, aesthetically unique, vibey, deep, and somewhat roguish – to be watched!  
Last but definitely not least, on “Bronx Warriors”, NC-17 reunites with long time fellow Korosiv  for a bone-dry, freakingly dark call to arms – these badboys from Toronto always deliver.

02. Dorian & Twenty Freeze - Dirty Habits [MFR091LP2]

the result of challenge by Gatekeeper to see who could make a mentasm tune quickest and best! haaa, not sure who won! Had a wicked little version with a VIP vocal from Riko Dan of Roll Deep (one of my fave ever MCs) on it which unfortunately because of my weird arrangement he came in on a beat late for the whole tune : ( so near and yet so far! woulda sounded sick too!
