A. Eyes Open
AA. Violator

Release Date: 24th February 2023

Friske turns in two thugged out weapons for UVB-76’s delinquent sister label DROOGS. Normally his releases showcase his mastery of the light and dark duality of Drum & Bass with a sensei’s precision, but for DROOGS he reminds everyone that to be adept in the Yin, you need to be an accomplished champion of the Yang.

The 303 acid rhythm of “Eyes Open” slithers through the smokey underworld, a measured and methodical killer that squeezes the listener tighter and tighter in its grasp
.
“Violator” goes full Rufige with broken side steps and gooned up stabs setting up speaker knocking thuds and miscreant B Boy atmosphere.

Take a trip on “The Green Line” and experience a journey through Stockholm’s underground in the unique soundscapes crafted by JNB.
Inspired by the iconic Green Line of the Stockholm subway, this album immerses listeners in the cold, raw atmosphere of the city’s transit system. More than just a nod to the snowy, urban landscape, “The Green Line” captures that uniquely Scandinavian feeling of solitude and introspection that comes with long rides through dimly lit tunnels and quiet, empty platforms. Each track becomes a station along the route, moving fluidly through various styles of Drum & Bass to create a true audio journey.

With over 15 years of experience promoting events in Stockholm, JNB brings a rare depth and diversity to his sound. He weaves in influences from across the whole spectrum—from intense, bass-heavy rollers to smooth, melodic cuts—reflecting the many sides of a genre he has long championed. “The Green Line” doesn’t conform to a single style, but rather lets each track stand as its own reflection of JNB’s love for the wide range of sounds within the genre.
It’s an album shaped by years of experience and a deep passion for Drum & Bass, crafted with care and attention to every detail. “The Green Line” is a genuine reflection of JNB’s connection to the music and the journey it represents.

The mighty APOLLO NAVIGATION returns to Heavy Sonics Records for his third release on the label, following his debut EP last year.

Hemel Hempstead's finest D&B producer/DJ and Heavy Sonics resident, Apollo Navigation, AKA Ashley, is back with two absolute heaters - Crash Test and Nothingness.

The a-side, Crash Test, comes in hard with big drums, a groovy bassline, and a powerful and interesting hypnotic vibe. This one packs a punch, like getting hit in the face, with AN's usual dynamic, trademark futuristic bass sounds. This one goes hard, all the way to the second drop, which switches up the drum pattern and rolls through, all the way to the next track!

The b-side is a minimal number, with AN's signature twisted basslines. As the track name suggests, it goes deep and dark, with a haunting vocal just before the heavy drop. AN's versatility in making a stripped-back beat like this one so impactful highlights his superb technical production skills.

We're buzzing to keep having AN consistently release bangers with us, and long may it continue!

Big up to everyone supporting HSR, plenty more to come in 2025!!

Back2Back Records started out as a group of friends wanting to contribute to the alternative dance music scene in Sweden. After a few parties with mixed up music, mixed up crowds and only positive reactions from the people the parties got bigger and happened more often.

Now entering its 12th year, with monthly events at Slakthuset and boat and forest parties, Back2Back provides a much-needed platform for both international and local artists to perform in Stockholm. 
Today, Back2Back consists of seven people (Estated, JNB, rzt, i.Spaceman, Charlie.pxls, Aurelius & ItsOk) on a mission to play Drum and bass to the masses!
