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.

Austrian Newcomer Artist
deep, rolling, dark, techy and minimalistic dnb enthusiast.


("sh-AY-K-ong")

After discovering drum&bass by listening to iconic mixtapes like "Nightlife" by Andy C and the mighty "Mix Massive Party by Elisa Do Brasil" in the early 2000s, Phonograph dove headfirst into the captivating world of this music. Quickly, he acquired turntables and vinyl records to learn the art of mixing, aiming to express his passion through his own musical interpretations.

In 2007, the call of adventure led him to leave France and join his older brother DJ Redrum and his friend Mr Tea in Edinburgh, Scotland. On this new turf, he embarked on organizing electronic events under the name "Noizteez," creating memorable sonic experiences for an enthusiastic and devoted audience. Simultaneously, his involvement in the Scottish collective "6tms Anon" led him to organize events in temporary autonomous zones, pushing the creative boundaries of electronic music.

The desire to create his own music took shape in 2014 when Phonograph signed his first single, "Escape From Reality." This initial release paved the way for a series of successful collaborations with renowned labels such as Mindtech Recordings, Transmission Audio, Dnb France, and Hyperactivity Music.

His tracks quickly gained support from pioneering figures in the scene, including DJ Aphrodite, Dillinja, John B, Elisa Do Brasil, Ray Keith, Grooverider, Amoss, and many more..

AutomAte is a collective formed of:
Deficit (London)
Esion (Bristol)
DX Machina (Bristol)
Nathan E (London)

We share a mutual love of dark, techy drum & bass, although we are involved with a range of other bass-led genres. We DJ and write music individually and together. We run the AutomAte family of digital labels, including AutomAte, AutomAte Deep and AutomAte Tech. AutomAte aims to bring you the best in edgy drum & bass, aimed square at the dancefloor, from rising stars to established artists, from chunky steppers to dark rollers and all manner of other fancy-ticklers. The parent label has already chalked up Radio 1 airplay from Friction, support from Drum & Bass Arena and has caught the attention of more DJs than you could shake a stick-insect at.

The Deep label aims to put the warmth back into drum & bass with a range of deep, eclectic, inspirational music, influenced by anything from the Far East to South America and everything in between. 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).

The Tech label showcases a variety of gritty drum & bass music, from amen tracks and heavy-steppers to neuro and hardcore styles. We like it grimy with a slight attitude problem and an infectious groove. Supporters include DJ Hype, Bailey, Kenny Ken, Dose, Raiden, Nu:Tone, Cause4Concern, EBK, June Miller, Inside Info, Gremlinz, Stranjah, Chris Su, Zero-T, Nyx, Amoss, NC-17, Fade, The Risky (Drum & Bass Arena), Billion (Fathom Audio), Arclight, John Rolodex, Phil Hustle, Hyroglifics, Neve, Concrete, Bad Education, Cursa, AbleDanger, Soul Sinners and more.
