The Sect - Oxidize (Kemal Remix)

Having signed exclusively to Proximity earlier in the year, North London based duo Tephra & Arkoze are back with their second release with us! They proudly present a devastating single titled The Lions Den / Pressure!  

The Lions Den certainly does what it says on the tin as this aggressive number keeps the listener well aware of their surroundings with its weighty drums, heavy bassline and growling vibes. Approach with caution! On the flip the boys feature the vocal talents of Innate MC with Pressure! A much more mellower vibe here but the tracks still ticks all the boxes when it comes to craftsmanship, nasty beats and tasty basslines! The vocals are the icing on the cake with this one! 

You have been warned! 


PROX053 - TEPHRA & ARKOZE - PRESSURE - FEAT. INNATE MC

Having passed through our camp not once but quite a few times this year, Kolectiv grace our presents once more with their stunning extended player titled, Archetype EP.

The London based trio step up to the Proximity plate yet again with this stunning 4 track package which boasts nothing less then top quality production skills right the way through! Whether you’re searching for that raw end gritty sound found in Cell State or whether you’re after one of those deep, blissful melodic numbers such as EP title track Archetype, then look no further because you’ve found it. What we have left is the heavy weight sounds of Satori, packed with thumping basslines and classic breaks. The highly experimental vibes of Radial is the icing on the cake here, which features the talents of InVision.

Strap yourselves into your seats as you take the ride of a lifetime yet again with Kolectiv!

ARtroniks & Submask - Awareness EP (DTR034) [FKOF Promo]

Next Level with Prolix

Things move on to Tetra, which’ll take you out of this world and into another. Slowly, deliberately, the
track moves up the gears, taking in atmospherics and a deep sense of foreboding. The beats then come
smashing through in perfect order, forcing the dancefloor into action. Rough, tough and ready to make an
impact, you’ll feel your body and mind taken under the spell of Tetra, leaving you rocking and reeling.

London Elektricity - Hospital podcast ft. Survival & Silent Witness "System Fault" - OUT NOW

This is a very special release. It is in memory of Rafał (Redirect) who sadly passed away in summer 2019. He was an outstanding and unique-sounding artist. In our fast-paced-newsfeed age, a lot of today's music lacks of typical artists-trademark. The music of Redirect was and is always sticking out and the listener knows it is a track by him.
One of his last unreleased tunes is "Instant Cutoff" and was signed by Perkussiv back in February 2016. This tune perfectly represents the style of Redirect: Phaser-driven and counter-playing leads with a straight forward, dancefloor-orientated beat, combined with a very short syncopated bass supporting the unique drive of this masterpiece. Redirect did not make any compromise - as usual - by pin pointing the main idea and that's that. The slightly melancholic typical overall-atmosphere of Redirect's music is perfectly represented in "Instant Cutoff".

As this release is called "We Salute You", Techno-DnB legends joined forces for a final salute to Rafał: Yabol, Amex, Dyslexia, Proton Kid and Section 63.
They remixed "Instant Cutoff" in their own individual style, in order to give Rafał the last tribute he truly deserves. A heavy-hearted good bye. A salute from the pier, standing strong together, witnessing the ship leaving the harbour, with Rafał's spirit and soul on board.

We wanna thank you, dear Rafał, that you were part of Perkussiv Music and this small Techno-DnB scene. You were a true artist, driven by passion. May you rest in peace. May God protect your soul and take care of your family and friends.

As this release would not be special enough, it is also worth to mention that Perkussiv is celebrating its 10 years anniversary exactly on the release date (February 22nd 2020), plus it is a personal gift to Amex himself, as this is also his birthday.

Finally we wanna thank every single fan all over the globe, who is still supporting us and the true deep-hearted music Perkussiv tries to release. Every purchase you do is going straight back to the label and helps us doing this.
