Philth is addicted to music; it is his breath and his lifeblood, a more driven man you will not find. His heady mix of distorted filth & saturated breakbeats is the fuel behind a meteoric rise, turning the heads of the scene’s top DJs and talent spotters.  Paired here with regular cohorts, AutomAte’s resident zombie wordsmith Agman Gora and long-time partner Wreckless, this trio of nuclear cuts is aimed directly at the techy dancefloors.

Submarine has already left a trail of destruction in its wake, running deep beneath the surface of a monstrous throbbing body of bass. This steppin’ VIP of the stripped-back, essential roller is set to become a firm favourite of the AutomAte catalogue all over again.

The Hammer brings us back to dry land and delivers an altogether more highly-strung vibe as Philth & Wreckless take their signature sound up to 11 with pounding bass, relentless running breaks and crashing metallics.

Finally, another second hotly awaited remix, Cordyceps VIP, rounds off the release - driving Agman’s commanding vocal chant deeper into your brain, embedded on wave after wave of bassline pressure and rapid percussion.

EATBRAIN Podcast 020 by Zombie Cats

Drum & bass stalwarts Black Sun Empire are to follow up a trio of recent EPs from The Upbeats, Neonlight and Pythius with the release of ‘Until The World Ends’ - a five-track, collaborative EP with NZ duo State Of Mind. To be released on January 26th via their genre-defining Blackout imprint, it marks an exciting start to 2015.

Lead track ‘Ego’ immediately sets the tone with growling bass lines and punchy synth-stabs that underpin dark, techy atmospherics and vocal loops.

Second track ‘Until The World Ends’ proves once again both acts’ enduring versatility - kicking off with a bass-heavy dubstep tones complimented by vocal duties from State Of Mind’s fellow New Zealander PNC, before

switching to a manic, intelligently structured groove for the remainder.

‘Bad’ opens with progressive percussion and softly-worked synths that move euphorically to a pounding drum break, whilst fourth track ‘Jack Nicholson’, featuring an imitable sample of the man himself, is a bass-fuelled shockwave of a track. Final track.

‘Moonbox’ closes the EP in true Blackout fashion, with signature frenetic beats and firing drums rounding off proceedings in style.

Black Sun Empire have built a reputation for curating their own brand of dark, neurofunk-inspired drum & bass over the past 12 months and this collaboration with long term accomplices State Of Mind - whom released their latest album ‘Eat The Rich’ via the label earlier this year - feeds into the hype surrounding Blackout as the label looks ahead to 2015.

Tracklist: 
01 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind feat. PNC - Until The World Ends 
02 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Bad 
03 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Ego 
04 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Jack Nicholson 
05 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Moonbox

Black Sun Empire & State Of Mind - Ego

 ‘Bypass’ makes its chaotic intentions clear from the start - utilizing a pleasingly forboding melody and carefully layered effects, SOM raises the pressure to it’s maximum level as they unleash a dirty pulsating bassline atop clamorous upfront drums.

State Of Mind - Bypass (Eatbrain013)

 Closing out Full Force EP comes a collaboration for the ages - State of Mind with Budapest dons Jade and Mindscape. The product is a track worthy of the trio. No-nonsense sci-fi synth melodies and slick, uplifting arpeggios transport ‘Know Your Place’ into the distant future before SOM, Jade, and Mindscape bring things back with a dirty, earthy reece which ricochets upon towering sub bass and tactile, concussive drums. Each producer leaves their mark on the track, which is equal parts seduction, ruthlessness, and funk. This trifecta makes ‘Know Your Place’ an authentic blueprint for dancefloor annihilation.

Mefjus - Purify

UK based collective http://soundcloud.com/d-r-o-p-s made their AutomAte debut on the Depth of Vision EP Volumes 1 & 2 with a pair of laid-back rollers. Rising through the ranks, they follow up here with a solo single aimed square at the dancefloor.

Too Much is one of those core, quintessential things that every DnB DJ needs in their arsenal – a dirty roller!  A relentlessly pulsing, throbbing bassline driven by a weighty, running drum beat, simply designed to shift the dance up a gear.  Why won’t my damn feet stay still?

Too Much / Future Proof

D.R.O.P.S - Too Much - AM8E015 - Out 4/4/16

Inseparable German duo Rune & Kaiza, aka Instinkt, deliver a trademark solo effort backed with a collaboration with fellow countrymen Audio Habitat and hot-right-now MC Kryptomedic.

Kabuki is the more rolling of the two.  A precise, robotic technoid groove bringing to mind an android army marching heads-down into a black hole.  There is no escape from the hypnotic rhythm as we are pulled over the event horizon.

Gasket features a veritable German dream-team with the combined musical talents of Instinkt & Audio Habitat and the vocal prowess of Eatbrain’s MC Kryptomedic.  Snarling basses and full-bodied drums underpin Krypto’s relentless social commentary.

Wreckless has been a firm AutomAte fixture since the labels’ inception.
Music teacher by day, producer by night and dedicated to the cause, Wreckless embodies everything that is AutomAte’s M.O.  Able to turn his hand to a variety of styles, from beautiful soundscapes to distorted filth, a very real emotion and level of human connection shines through all of his work.

Wreckless releases on a number of labels and this, his first artist EP for this imprint, sees him once again save his toughest output for AutomAte.  Opening track Le Monde sets the scene with a grid of tight kick drums providing framework for abrasive bass rips and a wriggling, squelchy 303 acid line.  Next comes Kruger Algae, an absolutely storming piece of tech dnb featuring Onkeys; not for the faint-hearted or warm-up DJs, this cut destroys dancefloors.

Next up, Broken Teeth slaps us repeatedly with cold, hard snares, keeping us permanently stunned as we float amid a stomach-churning sea of gnarly distortion.  Finally, The Doctor delivers a hectic, highly strung vibe as a huge malfunction threatens the very fabric of space and time, giving us our cue to exit on the double!

Gradual - Industry EP [FREE DOWNLOAD]

It hasn't taken long for Alerstorm and Ice Stereo to establish their neuro-tinged Gradual guise as one of Technique Recordings' heavy hitters. Having introduced themselves to the label with some dark and techy flavours, they were last seen on the Summer 2016 compilation bringing the more sunlit vibe of “Falling Pieces”. So, we know they've got multiple facets to their style, which makes this EP a particularly exciting prospect.

The title track, “Industry”, is a team-up with Gradual's compatriot Impak. The evolving arpeggios and pads of the intro are dramatically counteracted by percussion which grabs hold of us and drags us to the drop. Then there's an almighty battle between warping bass, technoid stabs and pitch-bent tones to keep the energy at an absolute peak. And the breakdown, rather than offering relief from the madness, just provides an opportunity to build back into a melee of tempo-switching craziness. If you want to take hold of the dance's attention and refuse to let it go, here's one to pull out.

“Caution” immediately envelopes us in dark velvet synths, which sweep and rise, set off by hints of percussion. There's anticipation and tension right from the get go, and it feels inevitable that the drop will bulldoze all before it. Which it does. The smoothness of the intro is brutally chopped into relentlessly staccato slices, supported on a foundation of driving bass and the kind of expertly-programmed drums we've come to expect from Gradual. This is a piece of rock-solid rollage that's the ravers won't be able to resist.

The title of “Helium” makes sense straight away. A crazy pitched-up vocal riff sets the tone, and things just get more twisted from there. Old skool stabs hark back to the anything-goes experimentalism of early jungle and the drop takes that idea and runs with it. The vocal sample is subjected to all manner of sonic violence and combined with the driving bass and beats to give a constantly-shifting array of patterns. This track is beautiful insanity, demonstrating that Gradual can give us something we've never heard before while still keeping the dancefloor firmly in their sights.

“Peevish” can be summed up by one word: intense. There's just a fractional moment of peace as a calming wave of pad introduces the track but within seconds that's disturbed by a distorted gritty stab. From there the track becomes a wall of energy. It hasn't even dropped before the low-end's filled out with a lava-flow of power. Then as the full assault of the drums and bassline hit, backed by unrelenting mid-range grind, it becomes a claustrophobic tunnel of music. When it's time to dark things up, this is a tune to draw for.

It might be a free download, but there's nothing cheap about these tunes. Each one has musicality, craft and rave power and each one teaches us something new about Gradual's production abilities. If this is the direction these Spanish technicians are heading in, then there's some distinctly dangerous material to look forward to.

The Depth Of Vision EP series has thus far offered an incisive look through the http://soundcloud.com/automate-dnb vaults at some of their exceptional breakthrough artists.  This latest chapter aims to showcase two sides of a stylistic coin, placing old-school vibe-led pieces directly alongside punchy modern productions, demonstrating that it takes all sorts to feed a healthy scene.

http://soundcloud.com/phonograph opens the EP with New Horizon: a thoroughly modern, hard-hitting, swaggering masterclass in groove and grunt.  The killer combination of funk and weight will win this track a place in many a record bag.

http://soundcloud.com/ewokdj may not have been seen in public since AM8E006 but has been working solidly with the AutomAte crew behind the scenes.  Heavy Armour delivers a compatible vibe with his previous solo efforts for the label, rescued from deep in the techy, dark traditions of old school DnB.

http://soundcloud.com/sl8r-dnb ’s offering Conflict is a more contemporary, head-nodding, foot-tapping groove.  Equally at home on the headphones or in the dance, there is a spring in its step that belies its simplicity.

Hungarian newcomer http://soundcloud.com/them3chanikal draws this chapter to a close with a light & energetic techy roller.  Back Of Beyond offers plenty of pace and, rather than an ending, leaves the series feeling wide open for the next instalment.

AutomAte Deep was launched in 2013 and has already picked up Radio 1 airplay from Nihal plus support from Raiden, EBK, Morphy, The Untouchables, Mental Forces, J Robinson, Ortokore, Philth, Stunna, Marukomu, Dexta & Mauoq (Diffrent Music).
