Involved with electronic music since the mid 90s, Cambridge duo None Decay have behind them a rich tapestry of studio and DJ experience in drum & bass, hip-hop and beyond.  They made their AutomAte debut on Depth of Vision EP Vol.2.  Rising quickly through the ranks, their first full-length artist EP on the imprint garnered attention from high-ranking drum & bass officials such as Goldie and Ulterior Motive and the second followed on its heels.

Taurine EP is a diverse quiver of old-school vibes, demonstrating their mastery of the craft over many years, perhaps these are the pieces they would have created early in their careers and now have the expertise to execute to their own very high standards.

Opening track Taurine sets the scene with a relaxed, classic breaks approach, warm sub and floating, spacious synths.  Next comes 12 Monkeys, a rolling head-nodder that takes us all back to before neuro was neuro.  Next up, Playing features a beautifully close, intimate vocal performance from Hazy Jane, backed with stripped-back beats and ominous vibe.  Finally, we fall over the edge into the clattering breaks and grumpy basses of Domestic.

Vesela, mračna i mlada skupina koja dolazi iz Čepina, Osijeka i Požege. Sačinjavaju ih Kangfu, Sky, Otpor, a odnedavno i Mance; četiri DNB brata. Postoje preko godinu dana pod ovim imenom. Crew se malo mjenjao, ali sada su jači nego ikada. Uz to imaju i veliku dnb obitelj diljem Slavonije, koja im pomaže u radu. Njihov stil i selekcija idu daleko. Od mračnog dubstepa, halftimea-a do laganog minimala i sve bržeg i mračnijeg rolla, techstepa, te starijeg neura. Eksperti za sve sto je mračno i popraćeno dobrim bubnjevima. Drže do starog, dobrog, underground zvuka i to im trenutno daje najviše inspiracije. Ništa drugo osim toga ih ne zanima. Trenutno iza sebe imaju velik broj nastupa po Slavoniji, ove godine i prva dva festivala; Membrain festival u Šibeniku, te Strobolobodobolos u Đakovu  gdje su ostvarili mnoštvo novih poznanstava. Dnb im je najveca ljubav i opsesija i to ce ih voditi u daljnjem radu. 

 Jolly, dark and young group of people that come from Čepin, Osijek and Požega. This group is constituted by Kangfu, Sky, Otpor, and, recently, Mance; the four DNB brothers. They have been in existence for over a year under this name. The original crew has been changed a bit since the beginning, but now they are stronger than ever. In addition, they have a great family throughout the whole Slavonija which helps them in their work. Their style and selection range from dark dubstep, through halftime, to light minimal, also including faster and darker roll, techstep and earlier neuro. They are experts on everything that’s dark and accompanied by a good drum roll. They care about the good, old underground sound which gives them the most inspiration at the moment, and they aren’t interested in anything but that. They have a great number of shows behind them around all of Slavonija, and, from this year, their first two festival shows; Membrain festival in Šibenik and Strobolobodobolos in Đakovo where they made a lot of new acquaintances. Dnb is their tremendous love and obsession and that will lead them in their further work.

In the future it's still all about drum & bass.

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.
