The planet was barren, sundered by spiderwebbed cracks that shot across its rugged landscape. From within this lattice of fractures effervesced a number of alien vapours most certainly lethal to the lone explorer trudging atop the planet’s stony hide, were it not for the manifold atmospheric filters contained within their spacesuit. Though the planet was dead now, stories told of a great civilization that had once flourished upon its grounds and that had left behind great treasures in the wake of their untimely collapse. Thus it was that the explorer had come to this forsaken place, braving its hostile environment upon the advice of a spacer’s bar story told since the planet’s discovery.

Not one to shy away from the challenges of a novel venture, the explorer double-checked their filters before continuing onwards into the fog, single minded in their devotion to uncovering the truth of a mysterious tale that had been told time and time again within the sector’s many spaceports. Such was their devotion that for a time they did not notice the great object that now loomed before them, thrumming with energy as it slowly rotated off center from its poles. When the explorer did look up, they did so awestruck. Could this be the planet’s fabled treasure that lay before them? What could it be if that was the case? These were the thoughts that ran through their head as the objected emitted a low rumble and began to seemingly fade out of existence. Distraught, the explorer sprinted towards the object, only to discover that their own feet seemed to no longer make impacts upon the ground. Indeed, as though mirroring the strange geometric object the explorer had begun to fade too, and no single scream did escape their lips as they were swallowed up by THE MIRAGE.

LIVEON returns to EATBRAIN for his second full EP, which follows in the sonic wake of his debut “Stutter” EP that smashed through the EATBRAIN horde in October of 2020. After interim appearances on the label’s “Divergence III” compilation and Blackout’s “Evolutions” series, LIVEON now leads listeners into MIRAGE, an EP that sees the continued development of the artist’s sonic palette across a series of enchanting rhythmic sequences backed by the sheer bassweight central to the EATBRAIN philosophy.

A regular amidst the upper echelons of the download charts, the mighty Tantrum Desire has just delivered some brand new fireworks for his army of fans. As the hopeful, star-gazing melodies of the intro morph into militantly filthy bass timbres and addictively syncopated rhythmic interplay, it becomes starkly apparent that Mr Desire's delivered another monstrous dancefloor destroyer.

Tantrum Desire - Xtraterrestrial

“Sinusoids”, its atmospheric soundscape leading into clattering crescendos anchored on garbled basslines and punctuated by thumping snares.

TR TACTICS // Sinusoids // LTDC4C028 [Premiere]

Leaving little time for recovery, the ominous, vocal-led “Lethal Demons” continues to apply the pressure, snapping into characteristically brutal drops dominated by fuzzed low-end.

Wrapping things up in a big way is “Showdown”, which finds the pair’s cinematic flair balancing on a knife-edge with unrelenting bassweight—resulting in a textbook TR Tactics cut and a worthy finale to a landmark EP.

Ignition offers more high energy input and picks up where he left off, its thunderous low frequencies and accented synth stabs, it promptly progresses into epic crescendos accented by fuzzed basslines and hard-hitting drums, laying the perfect groundwork for gritty, swaggering climax.

Disciple will arrive to Beatport & Spotify on 6th January, landing on all digital platforms two weeks later on 20th January.

Dropset // Ignition // C4CDIGUK074 // OUT NOW!

The opening track Disciple hits with an ambitious amalgamation of distorted reeses, pulsating leads and hurtling drums, It’s a characteristically hard-hitting heater from the C4C camp, and a timely reminder of why he features so heavily in the C4C catalogue.

Dropping today via C4C Recordings, HLZ delivers his reimagined remix of a Cause4Concern classic. Retaining the raw energy of the original, HLZ injects the quality back into this hypnic slice of funk.

Release: Phatcap (TRCD Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK088
Support: https://cygnusmusic.link/8wznqrz

Originally dropping back in 1999 on C4C Recordings, “Phatcap” has long been a staple of the neuro-heavy DnB scene. Now, TRCD injects the timeless drum loops and iconic bassline with a modern twist, honoring the original's spirit while giving it a fresh energy.

TRCD begins by resurrecting the rolling, punchy kick/snare combo that defined the original. From there, he refines the groove with crisp, meticulously layered hi-hats and sub-divided ghost snares. The result is a relentless, dancefloor-ready rhythm that jolts the track into 2025 territory.

That unmistakable sub-bass from the original remains intact—but TRCD enhances it with more punch and depth. Subsonic rumble underpins the rework, and occasional mid-range growls slide in, adding weight to the restructuring’s low-end.

Release: Bedhead (Quadrant & Iris Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK089
Support: https://cygnusmusic.link/m47yqwy

From the opening seconds, the Quadrant & Iris remix of Bedhead strikes a careful balance between reverence and reinvention. The original’s ominous sub-bass growl and the skeletal drum patterns that made Bedhead a C4C classic are still present.

For longtime fans, this version is a respectful tribute; for newer ears, it stands on its own as a high-caliber, heavy-hitting drum & bass track. Quadrant & Iris manage to refresh a classic without betraying its spirit—a mark of what a good remix should aim for.
