Intelligent Drum and Bass

The Aftermath

essentialism.

New Old Skool Hardcore/breaks/jungle type business

DJ Trax, Naibu and Becki Biggins on vocals - for us here at Subtle Audio, this is a kind of D&B dream-team! "All Is Silent" begins with an ethereal vocal-led intro which promptly gives way to a slightly sordid bass sound. The drums roll in and the bass gets progressively nastier, initially simmering, eventually seething and then it slips away temporarily before rising once more. The breakdown returns us to the calming vocals and synth washes of the intro before an anthemic piano motif introduces the return of the drums and a somewhat friendlier bass sound for a thrilling climax.

Photek's classic Natural Born Killa EP Remastered 

Photek - Into The 90's (2015 Remaster)

Planet Mu are very proud to be linking up with The Vinyl Factory who are releasing an 18 track 3x12" edition of µ20 which you can pre-order here: 

3xCD+ Book boxset and 2CD available to pre-order here: http://www.planet.mu/discography/ZIQ370

Planet Mu is a label that has always survived on its own very independent terms. For 20 years it's existed both on the fringes and in the centre of emerging electronic music, from IDM and breakcore to dubstep and grime and lately to footwork, which it took a chance on, opening it up to the world through the two Bangs & Works compilations. It also has a strong history of connecting the dots in between those genres by supporting idiosyncratic artists, from label stalwart Venetian Snares to Kuedo, Machinedrum, Boxcutter, Vex'd, Falty DL, Luke Vibert, Ital, Jlin and Mr. Mitch to name just a few.

Run by Mike Paradinas, who under the name µ-Ziq was one of the first wave of producers pushing the musical envelope in the wake of house and techno's initial burst of inspiration, Planet Mu is an established engine of creativity and enquiry, with one foot in the pop world, and a sense of fun that never lets its experimentation disappear into exclusivity and snobbery.  

To celebrate their 20th Anniversary, Planet Mu have organised a 50-track, triple CD compilation of both old and new unreleased tracks and remixes packaged in a deluxe dvd-style boxset complete with a 110 page book charting the history of the label, with insight from artists and staff, written by electronic music writer Rory Gibb. 

The music on CDs one and two is mainly from the current decade, with contributions from Kuedo, Machinedrum, John Wizards, Ital Tek, Remarc, Boxcutter, RP Boo, John T. Gast, Jlin and new signing Herva to name but a few. They're colourful, broad and adventurous rides across the roster that will impress and excite any fan of electronic music and are a strong reminder of the consistent quality and broad mindedness of the label too. 

CD three features more of the older guard, dipping back into the roster from the late nineties and early 2000s with a range of noisier, knottier contributions from artists including Jega, Neil Landstrumm, Speedy J, Shitmat, Leafcutter John, Hellfish, Datach'i and Hrvatski, it's the perfect compilation for hardcore fans and a brilliant and friendly introduction to the label for curious newcomers too.

Chain Reaction EP

Chain Reaction

Artist : NCQL

Tracks : 
A – “ The Framed Dreams Of Loki ”	
AA – “ Professional Dreamer ” 

Format : 12" Vinyl (Digital Download to follow)
Promo Release Date : February 13th 2012

					
NCQL annouces himself in no uncertain fashion with the anthemic strings of “The Framed Dreams Of Loki”. The track nods to DJ Premier, Prefuse 73 and classic Metalheadz D&B Hidden Agenda style and there’s a subtle (!) reference to a certain classic 90s rave tune in there aswell. It sounds like a mess - it’s anything but ! This is uplifting breakbeat at it’s very best. It’s not often a tune gets played three times by Bailey on his BBC 1Xtra show in the space of a month, so this must be something special.
			
The flipside has a similar organic & uplifting aesthetic. A strutting break is the base for a deluge of warmth in the shape of synths, strings, flutes, harp and vocals - an unusual sound palette for a Drum & Bass track these days but refreshing to hear. DJ Flight thought so and has aired it on one of her “Next Chapter” Rinse FM broadcasts.

VIP Drumz / Ghosts Of My Life

VIP Drumz (2017 Remaster)

We’re excited to announce the return of Manchester-based producer Earl Grey for his latest release on Inperspective Records. Earl Grey’s repertoire includes releases on esteemed labels such as Eastern Promise Audio, Plush Recordings, Subtle Audio Recordings, Western Lore and his own Hyperchamber Music. Following the success of his experimental Headwinds LP and his addition to the “Teddy Bear Trilogy”, Earl Grey now brings dynamic new EP ‘French Exit’ to Inperspective Records. 

Opener ‘False Horns’ is a deep track with a sinister build, teasing in an eerie horn sound to create an atmospheric soundscape, with the hypnotic, jazzy fused breakbeat finishing what is an outstanding start to the incredible EP. ‘After They Turn The Rigs Off’ adds an electrifying complexity that takes us on a journey, leading with vocal samples and a piercing beat, before transporting us to a spiritual world through echoing chants and a lighter sound. ‘Mime Jar Lens’ is refreshingly toned-down in comparison to the previous exhilarating tracks. Nonetheless, it packs its own punch, with sharp breaks and an ambient jazzy style that is captivating and dreamy.

Title-track ‘French Exit’ is eerie in a way that will have you hanging on for every beat, as it breaks sonic boundaries and pulls you down into a deep underworld. Earl Grey demonstrates his hypnotic powers, drawing us out from the superbly dark world of the previous track and into the light, dreamy sound of ‘Lessons Learnt.’ ‘Hypothermic’ rounds of this release with a rolling, richly atmospheric track. This closer seamlessly combines both the lighter, ethereal sounds and moodier, dark tones of the other tracks.

‘French Exit’ presents a masterful collection of tracks that twist and turn, but remain united by their richly atmospheric sound. Earl Grey marks his third Inperspective Records release with an invigorating, unique EP, pushing the boundaries of drum and bass.

Inperspective Records, founded in 1997 has become one of the best loved and most respected leftfield D&B imprints. Over the years a number of now highly respected artists have produced some of the most groundbreaking music to be pressed onto vinyl (we say!).
Artists include: Earl Grey, Lynch Kingsley, Profane, Phuture T, Nic TVG, Breakage, Equinox, Fracture & Neptune, ASC, Survival, Infamy, Senses, Chris Inperspective, Sinistarr, NCQL, Andy Skopes, Polska, Alpha Omega, Pariah, Macc & dgoHn, Giles Appleton, Mutants & Kasious
Chris Inperspective also founded the Technicality night in 1999. The mindset was to represent the underrepresented in D&B and has been going strong ever since. They continue to hold events to this day. Not to be missed!
