Nostalgia is a thing that influences our cultural creation and consumption today, but nostalgia is also how Drum & Bass finds a way to reinvigorate itself, and M-zine expresses this feeling immaculately. M-zine’s work is meticulous and transportive. He is an artist plucked from the deepest depths of Drum & bass music, and taking influences from genres like Techno, Hip-Hop, Soul & Funk, M-zine has carved his own niche in the Drum & Bass scene.
M-zine started his journey as a Drum & Bass producer in 2011 with Proximity Recordings with two funky releases in Peristaltic and Riddance. His first Vinyl release came in 2012 with Swiss-based label Demand Records. Endings, a hypnotic low-end roller was heavily supported by some of the heavyweights in Drum & Bass like Doc Scott, Skeptical, Spinline, and Loxy.
M-zine’s watershed moment as producer came in 2013; when he saw his music being released on labels like Dispatch Recordings, 31 Recordings, and Warm Communications, with a special mention by Tom Yorke’s “Pissing In The Wind On A Monday” for his release on 31 Recordings.
With big releases on labels like Dispatch Recordings, Commercial Suicide, Critical Recordings, 31 Records, a thumping release with Belgian trio Bredren that topped the Beatport charts, one LP plus several EPs and singles on Sofa Sound Bristol, and an EP coming out on Subtitles Recordings, M-zine has comfortably registered his name as one of the finest producers in Drum & Bass.


La nostalgie influence nos créations culturelles et notre consommation actuelle, mais elle est aussi un moyen pour la Drum & Bass de se revitaliser, et M-zine exprime ce sentiment à merveille. M-zine travaille de façon méticuleuse et expressive. C'est un artiste qui vient des profondeurs de la Drum & Bass, et en puise ses influences dans divers genres tels que la Techno, le Hip-Hop, la Soul et le Funk, il s'est taillé une niche bien à lui dans la scène Drum & Bass.
M-zine a commencé son parcours de producteur de Drum & Bass en 2011 sur Proximity Recordings avec deux sorties funky ; Peristaltic et Riddance. Sa première sortie vinyle a eu lieu en 2012 sur le label Demand Records, basé en Suisse. Endings, un roller hypnotique, a été fortement soutenu par certains poids lourds de la Drum & Bass comme Doc Scott, Skeptical, Spinline, et Loxy.
Le moment décisif pour M-zine en tant que producteur s'est produit en 2013 ; quand il a vu sortir ces morceaux sur des labels de renom tels que Dispatch Recordings, 31 Recordings, et Warm Communications, avec une mention dans Tom Yorke's "Pissing In The Wind On A Monday" pour sa sortie sur 31 Recordings.
Avec de grosses sorties chez Dispatch Recordings, Commercial Suicide, Critical Recordings, 31 Records, une sortie fracassante avec le trio belge Bredren qui atteint le sommet des charts Beatport, un LP ainsi que plusieurs EPs et singles chez Sofa Sound Bristol, et un EP à venir chez Subtitles Recordings, M-zine a confortablement inscrit son nom comme l'un des plus fins producteurs en matière de Drum & Bass.







Nostalgie heeft vandaag een grote invloed op onze culturele creatie en consumptie, maar nostalgie is ook hoe Drum & Bass een manier vindt om zichzelf te vernieuwen, en M-zine drukt dit gevoel perfect uit. Het werk van M-zine is nauwgezet en transportief. Hij is een artiest die uit de diepste krochten van Drum & Bass is geplukt, en met invloeden uit genres als Techno, Hip-Hop, Soul & Funk heeft M-zine zijn eigen niche in de Drum & Bass-scene ontwikkeld.
M-zine begon zijn reis als Drum & Bass-producer in 2011 bij Proximity Recordings met twee funky releases : Peristaltic en Riddance. Zijn eerste Vinyl release kwam in 2012 met het Zwitserse label Demand Records. Endings, een hypnotiserende low-end roller werd zwaar ondersteund door zwaargewichten in Drum & Bass zoals Doc Scott, Skeptical, Spinline en Loxy.
M-zine's keerpunt als producer kwam toen hij in 2013 zijn muziek begon uit te brengen op labels als Dispatch Recordings, 31 Recordings en Warm Communications, met een vermelding in Tom Yorke's "Pissing In The Wind On A Monday" voor zijn release op 31 Recordings.
Met grote releases op labels als Dispatch Recordings, Commercial Suicide, Critical Recordings, 31 Records, een dreunende release met het Belgische trio Bredren die de top van de Beatport charts haalde, een LP en meerdere EP's en singles op Sofa Sound Bristol, en een EP die uitkomt op Subtitles Recordings, heeft M-zine met gemak zijn naam geregistreerd als een van de fijnste producers in Drum & Bass.

Let's be honest. How many seven year old junglists do you know of? Well, the boy who would become Command Strange was just such a child. Growing up in Kazakhstan, the lure of his older brother's jungle and drum 'n' bass proved irresistible, and exposure to the music of icons like Roni Size, Aphrodite, and LTJ Bukem laid the foundations for what was to follow.

By the age of sixteen Command Strange was already releasing music. With a focus on the melodic side of DnB, he quickly got the attention of the scene's elite. The likes of Bryan Gee, Jumpin Jack Frost, Goldie, Hype, Bukem, Fabio & Grooverider regularly supported his productions, and with airplay on prestigious stations like BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, his reputation as one to watch was secured.

And he hasn't slowed down since.

Releases on Fokuz, Metalheadz, Good Looking, Integral, Grid, Horizons, Hospital and Med School have proven his versatility, with the Command Strange sound evolving to encompass harder, nastier styles alongside his pristine musicality. In a scene where releasing one artist album is a major achievement, Command Strange's back cat already includes three of them, “Soul Booster” and “Episode 91” on Fokuz, and “Joy”, his team-up with Intelligent Manners, on Marky's Innerground imprint.

Now exclusively signed to the V Recordings family, and with a reputation as a deejay that's seen him hype crowds across Europe and beyond, Command Strange has racked up achievements that are distant dreams for many artists twice his age. Even so, as he continues to develop, collaborate, and innovate, there's no doubt there are many more incredible things to come for Command Strange. Watch carefully.

Releasing Sound System Musik since 2006.
