AutomAte Tech - Present & Future

dnbbbb

Neve – man or machine? His genuine love of analogue is foretold in his name, yet his beats scream tight and modern. This is a man who prides himself on staying true to his roots whilst always pushing forward. If you have not yet heard his name, it shall not now be forgot.

Italian stablemate Future Roots shows a very different side to himself here than on his previous AutomAte Deep outing. The link though is clear; a love of the old school and a real desire to wring every last drop of potential from the modern studio.

Oku storms out of the gate with tight beats, dense sub and boundless energy. This is neuro style drum and bass at its dark, dank best. There’s a very real claustrophobia here; a malevolent force trapped, we hope, for all eternity.

CAT: BLAU002D 
Artists: Soligen & Type-2 / Mindmapper & Silvahfonk
Title: Pretending / Polygraph
Label: Blendits Audio 
Format: Digital 
Releasedate: 03-03-14 
Distribution: Triple Vision

Three months after their first release by Dabs, Hydro, M-Zine & Scepticz, Rotterdam based club night and label 'Blendits' returns with a fresh two tracker. A set of deep, musical sounds produced with clarity, detail and aimed towards the dancefloor!

Kicking off the EP, Lincoln (UK) trio Soligen & Type-2 deliver an obscure piece of drum & bass with 'Pretending'. Expect some twisted basslines and techy drumwork, the overal infusion of light and dark textures create a sonic energy not to be unheared. Mindblowing.

Next up are Mindmapper & Silvahfonk. As DJ's, promoters and labelowners they're at the forefront of the Dutch drum & bass community but also are making waves internationally. 'Polygraph' is a floating, airy piece of music with interesting drum rhythms, a deep sub and clever synth play. Intriguing and unique.

2N - PSYCHOPATH - MUZIK HERTZ RECORDINGS

http://soundcloud.com/Philth is addicted to music; it is his breath and his lifeblood. A music teacher by day and DJ/producer by night, a more driven man you will not find. The very definition of ‘signature sound’, 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.

As one would expect given the track titles, neither tune beats about the bush.  The menacing, rumbling intro of Destroyer leads directly to philthy overdriven bass rips before dropping into a stomping, claustrophobic rhythm with which even the most nimble of foot will struggle to keep pace.

Genocide presents a slightly friendlier façade for all of 40 seconds before again taking a snarling turn darkwards, this time into a tearing, swaggering stepper. If, as the sample suggests, this is the future of the human race, a stab-proof vest may be a wise investment.

Supported by Dillinja, Dieselboy, A-Sides, TC, Ray Keith, AK1200, InsideInfo, Stealth, The Sect, Jade, State Of Mind, Basher, Xanadu, DJ E, CZA, Savage Rehab, Mista Noize, Square..... the list goes on.  And on.  This release is getting absolutely battered!

Destroyer / Genocide

Philth - Destroyer - AM8T009 - Out Now!

The hasty, pressured vocal snippets of Trojan wind up the tension before storming out of the gate accompanied by tight beats, antagonistic bass slabs and boundless energy. This is one part glitch, one part neuro and one part mechanical stepper; there’s a dank, malevolent force at work here but somehow not taken too seriously.

Trojan / Coriolis

Seppa - Trojan - AM8T010 - Out Now

Coriolis is upbeat yet laid back, weaving its way through a cave system light-years from home, discovering as it goes a myriad of synthetic elements.  A perfect comparison and contrast with the A-side, this track manifests a similar brain in a very different body.

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.

June Miller - Snapcase - OUT NOW!

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.
