Stalwarts of the drum & bass scene for nearly three decades, London duo Loxy & Ink open up their 2022 account with a new single ‘Spray Trains Of Thought’.

The UK breakbeat pioneers have racked up an arsenal of releases for breakthrough labels such as Metalheadz, Hospital Records and Renegade Hardware, as well as their own Cylon Recordings and Architecture Recordings imprints. Their sounds have been brought to countless dancefloors around the globe, and the pair have held down residencies at pivotal nights such as Metalheadz Blue Note sessions, Fabio & Bukem’s Speed and Renegade Hardware’s parties at The End.

Having already flexed their hip-hop credentials on last year’s ‘Manifested Visions’ on R&S, the duo return with another blazing lyrical delivery and raw production. Drawing upon their influences from artists like KRS One, Rakim, Wu-Tang Clan, NAS and Mobb Deep, ‘Spray Trains Of Thought’ hits hard, as astute rhymes come thick and fast over tenacious beats and brooding horn blasts, proving that Loxy & Ink have the versatility to work across genres with ease and always deliver some serious musical heat!

Accompanying track ‘Channel’ find Ink and Loxy back in familiar break beat territory, as they team up with regular collaborator, the Finish producer Resound, for a textbook heavy stepper. Innovative breaks and throbbing bass frequencies hurtle forward at breakneck speed, with its vocal elements providing the warmth and soul in this smouldering production.

Kicking things off with ‘Don’t Run’ pulsating sonar drops explosive rolling breaks with a killer vocal sample that evokes the heinous sub-bassline igniting all around. ‘Raver’ an elevated frequency that drives the tempo to panned out beats echoing dancing in fields and warehouses all-night long. Surrender to ‘Amazon’ kaleidoscopic break patterns morphing throughout heed the vocal warning. Futuristic stylings of ‘No Responsibilities’ paired with naughty skanking breaks orchestrate this classic roller.
‘Broadcast’ a uniquely exclusive collaboration between Outrage, Amit & Digital
A calling to all Bass lovers cinematically scaped b-lines that stimulate every sense awash with hertz frequencies, mesmerising ragga vocal & tribalistic beats leading you into unknown territories... Welcome to Dubageddon!!!
The augmented dimension of ‘Power’ draws you closer and unleashes its almighty break-laden weaponry. Collaborating with Digital on ‘Equality’ hypnotically dubbed-out riddims & vocals cascading over foundations of warm bass flipping techy-breaks. Signing off the Vinyl format with another collab featuring one of the Drum & Bass scenes signature vocalists Ayah Marar on the beautifully arranged dancefloor tear-out that is ‘All I Ever Want’.
LP title track ‘Behind the Eyes’ intros and questions altered states of existence... gloriously uplifting chords that weave through the vocal sample snippets fuse critical levels of beats & breaks intrinsically wrapped in lashings of sub-bass creating a tidy slice of Drum n Bass!
Signature flavours from Outrage on the LP outro with ‘Fusion’ and ‘Stop, Look & Listen’

Another year and another forthcoming feature from Yamatai’s Label Manager and core artist Kalane.The Reading based producer has been very busy since his last solo project feature back in May 2024, with key releases on labels such as Sofa Sound, Skankandbass and Delta 9 Recordings, The experienced producer has been soaring up the ranks in popularity capturing fans all around the world with his incredibly unique sound presence which is arguably his best secret weapon. We have to give props to Kalane as he has really nailed the ‘find your own sound’ element already even though he is still so early in his career in Drum and Bass. You know a Kalane tune when you hear It and that is why he is gaining attention from labels and fellow producer alike.

With his biggest year to date last year Josh has set sights on making 2025 an even bigger year, working hard in the studio and stacking up his unsigned folder ready to reach even higher heights. Conversations with labels such as Truth Hertz, Drippyboi, The Sauce and many more 2025 could be the year that truly propels him into the spotlight.Balfouri was his last solo project featuring fellow upcomer Acris, this release was well received across the circuit with feed back and support from fellow peers and idols making this a very memorable release for Josh. This saw Kalane really experiment with the ‘Jump Up’ minimal fusion helping him to gauge the reception for this musical hybrid of styles. ‘His latest single with us ‘Flares / Fractures’ is a homage to Kalane’s undeniably unique sound and a showcase of Josh’s best work to date. Adding elements of jump up mixed with the classic boppy and groovy Kalane sub basses has formed 2 very distinctive tracks that we are proud to have on the label.

Get ready because its almost time, Kalane is back yet again and is ready to make his 2025 statement!

A play on a certain Dillinja track ;) Some live breakbeat action, a share if you like it wouldn't go a miss. :) Read below for more info.

Having fun by assigning different ableton loop start points to the pads. Take note, only the break programming is live, the bass and other samples were sequenced, and it's just a bit of fun. The samplers behind weren't used in this, but there's an idea for another video ;). This one wasn't exactly challenging, but I'm hoping to do some more videos which will gradually get more live, and step some of the beat patterns and edits up some more also. This one is pretty much a remix of Dillinja - Ja Know Ya Big, but with a nod to a few other Jungle tunes also.

I guess the mpc purists may have something to say, but like I say just a bit of fun. And Jungle is completely lost on me if the beats arn't computer tight.

Just like his 'Secrets' EP of last year, this latest instalment in Detboi's catalogue, entitled 'Ice Cold', merges elements of drum and bass, jungle, bass music, techno and more in exquisite fashion, quite simply like nobody else has done before.

The 5 track EP, 3 of which make it to the vinyl release, consists of pure breakbeat pleasure, with 'Blood Drops' leading the charge, a classy piece that elegantly rolls and seamlessly interchanges through various phases.

It's without doubt some of Detboi's most distinguished work yet, and we're delighted that it's opening the Metalheadz account for 2018.
