Japanese-Laotian-Australian artist http://soundcloud.com/fuj kicks of 2016 in much the same fashion as 2014 and 15 – with a hotly anticipated release on AutomAte Deep!  With such a cultural crossover building up his personal influences, there's something uniquely diverse about Fuj's productions. Clean and crisp on first glance, peer deeper into the abyss and intricate soundscapes appear from below the surface.

Listen to the tracks on the AutomAte Soundcloud page

Death Trader weaves a thick electric sunrise; effortless, dream-like atmosphere and totemic instruments appear over the horizon, supplanted by scratching synth bass and steadily thumping sub.  Satorian is a darker affair, a cloudy end to a bright morning as the air takes on a dense weight and the mists begin to swirl.

Rogue Inferno drags us insistently into the second half, a robotic yet groove-laden network of restless, dynamic timbres and textures, ever in flux.  As the twilight draws in, The Transfer drops the pace to a thought-provoking half-time with a trippy, cerebral vibe and epic touches, bringing our journey to a close.

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.
