this so epic!!!! man iv been listening to this all morning!!!

A recording of DJ Clarky on Eruption 101.3 FM from 17th August 1996 - in the midst of ‘The Blue Note era’. Clarky worked at Black Market Records, which became BM Soho, and also played at the Metalheadz Blue Note sunday sessions in the mid 90s. He played across the board from chilled atmospheric to raw tech step and this set is exactly that - There are a couple of Dillinja tracks on here I didn’t immediately recognise, so perhaps some unreleased stuff on here? the tape was recorded and passed on to me by my friend @robbrie aka Rob Phokus whom I’ve known since the early drumfunk years and has been a big part in the runnings of Scientific Wax. He sent me a load of amazing recordings so look out for those coming very soon on 0860.fm. Big up Rob!

Check out the rest of the project: 0860.fm

OA302: Esthetic & Reac-Zo - Ethereal Echoes EP

Sonic technicians Esthetic and Reac-Zo return to Onset with a four track journey into liminal realms beyond the veil. The EP pulses with a haunting energy, blending mechanical rhythms with distant atmospheres. Spanning a variety of BPMs from sludgy industrial halftime to driving breaks, each track feels like a plunge into the unknown. Reverb hangs thick in the air, the music breathes with a ghostly presence. Ethereal Echoes is a sonic landscape that feels both vast and intimate, a weighty reflection of space and sound.

Ainonow is back with a powerful new offering, unveiling the double-sided single “Break It” and “Lilt,” dropping March 21st via Onset Audio. Known for pushing the boundaries of experimental bass and drum & bass, Ainonow delivers a striking contrast between high-intensity energy and intricate, atmospheric sound design.
“Break It” is a raw, percussive-driven heater built to shake foundations, fusing industrial textures with relentless bass pressure. On the flip side, “Lilt” explores the deeper, more hypnotic side of Ainonow’s sonic arsenal—halftime layered with haunting melodies, intricate breaks, and immersive soundscapes. Together, these tracks showcase the emerging producer’s ability to traverse the full spectrum of underground electronic music.
With past releases already making waves in the bass and DnB communities, Ainonow continues to carve out a unique space in the scene, seamlessly blending innovation with raw intensity. Break It and Lilt mark the next chapter in a journey that refuses to be confined by genre.

Ainonow is an interdisciplinary and enigmatic artist focused on electronic music production. With his diverse background and range of influences, Ainonow's tracks traverse a broad spectrum of sonic landscapes. Combining elements of dark and heavy drum & bass, broken beat halftime and experimental bass music, he takes his listeners on a musical journey soaked in organic textures. As one of the most forward-thinking, rising artists in the world of underground electronic music, Ainonow’s music speaks to the power of experimentation and the limitless possibilities of creative expression.

On his debut two-track EP Exile Ainonow showcases his range in the genre of drum & bass starting out with the title track Exile, an industrial, raw, and ruthlessly rhythmic minimal drum & bass song with Jungle style breaks. The second track of the EP Triturate then launches into a meticulously layered, high energy neurofunk song that holds nothing back.

Experimental sonic distortions hang thick on Prop Your Shattered Failing Engine, the latest EP from Berlin's Diasiva. The duo also known as Monolog and Swarm Intelligence have seen releases on a wide array of forward thinking IDM outlets such as Ad Noiseam, Bedouin, Hymen and Ohm Resistance. Their debut on Onset Audio marks another singular entry into their catalog of punishing sound design, a fusion of industrial noise, fractured breakcore, and halftime drum & bass that thrashes against the ruins of order. The EP is a monument to entropy, a brutal elegy carved in digital decay and distorted signal.
