Critical Music is proud to present ‘Countdown’, the fourth solo album from one of drum & bass music’s true doyens, Enei.

A master of every style and strain of the D&B template - from energetic jump-up and silky smooth liquid, to skull-smashing darkness - Enei’s vast talent and hard-grafted skills have placed the Russian-born producer among the genre’s greatest exponents.

Countdown’ sees Enei bringing vocalists onto seven of the album’s 11 tracks, adding a warmer and more human touch, a natural progression as he becomes ever more rooted in the UK’s multicultural D&B community, while still being the same artist behind some of the hardest and most punishing drum & bass in recent years.  

Opener ‘Runaway With You’ sets the tone, presenting a moody liquid roller gilded with deft technical touches and the rich vocals of Cameron Hayes, before the lively, jazzy bounce of ‘Message’ featuring Sparkz lifts the energy in preparation for lead single ‘Black Bear’ to unleash its croaking, Belgian style jump-up pressure.

The vocals don’t stop coming; legendary London MC Killa P takes to the high-pressure ‘Nobody Else’, Bristol’s Eva Lazarus brings her soulful reggae inflections to ‘Set It Off’ and regular Critical contributor Verbz offers up his laidback bars across ‘Answers’.

The fantastically weird ‘Cartier’ punctuates proceedings with a pure instrumental work out that demonstrates Enei’s outrageous sound design skills, before the delicately drifting ‘Be The One’ brings more vocals from KLO in a link-up with Critical label boss and regular collaborator, Kasra.

‘Checks Up’ alongside Limmz reduces the tempo for the album’s sole non-D&B excursion, delivering a shaking breakbeat backbone for the young MC’s grime tinted bars. All that remains is for closing track ‘Axis’ to take things back to the raw fundamentals with a bubbling, percussive roller that leaves you hungry for even more.

Almost twenty years on since his debut release, and almost fifteen since exclusively signing for Critical Music, ‘Countdown’ is a bold proclamation that Enei’s enthusiasm for his art, and the art form itself, storms forward unabated.

SYSTEM OVERRIDE – Evolvian

A brutal transmission from the wrong side of the grid. SYSTEM OVERRIDE is a warehouse-born industrial techno album built on concrete kicks, rusted machinery and distorted, androgynous chants. Every track feels like a different glitch in a collapsing city: sirens buried in sub-bass, conveyor belts turned into drum lines, broken churches rebuilt as strobe-lit clubs.

Designed for dark rooms and red strobes, these tunes live between 138–146 BPM, with blown-out low end, metallic percussion and mantra-style vocals that sound like pirate broadcasts from inside the system itself. No comfort, no soft edges—just voltage, sweat and the feeling of your pulse being rewritten by the kick.

Play it loud, in one continuous hit, like an unauthorized firmware update for your nervous system.
SYSTEM OVERRIDE: when the code fails, the bodies take control.
