Ransack (WIP)

a precision-crafted journey into rhythm and tension. Fueled by rapid-fire drums, powerful basslines, and synths brimming with unease, the track pulses OMNEUM fires on all cylinders with Cybernetic Modules, with mechanical intensity. Futuristic FX and razor-sharp sound design immerse listeners in a world of neural interfaces and synthetic warfare. As the title track of the Cybernetic Modules single, it sets a fierce, cinematic tone - perfect for deep sets and late-night sessions on the cutting edge of DnB.

Cybernetic Modules

STONX Brings The Danger | A Neuro-Metal Anthem Straight From Hell

Alright, maniacs, time to lock the doors, bolt the windows, and say goodbye to your sense of safety because Stonx is here, and he’s not playing nice. Stonx Music’s head honcho has unleashed a neuro-metal monstrosity so savage it can scare demons out of hell. This isn’t music for the faint-hearted; it’s a chainsaw tearing through your sanity, inspired by Mick Gordon’s DOOM soundtracks and powered by the raw, chaotic energy of “I’m not locked in here with you, YOU’RE locked in here with ME.”

Kicking off with a doomsday intro so heavy it makes the Mariana Trench look shallow. Ominous, apocalyptic, and brimming with metallic tension, dragging you into a pitch-black pit where the only way out is to fight. Razor-sharp riffs churn through the air like molten steel, and just when you think you’ve caught your breath, the drop arrives, like a battering ram to the chest.
And what a drop it is. MASSIVE. SNARLING. REESE. Make Neurofunk Reese Again? Oh, we did. And it sounds like a thousand screaming engines revving up to vaporize everything in their path.

 This isn’t just a track; it’s a declaration of war on complacency. The bass roars like a pissed-off hellhound and the drums hit with enough force to rupture tectonic plates. Relentless. No breathers, no mercy. This is fight music. Demon-slaying, skull-crushing, 2 AM-in-the-pit, chaos-fueled destruction. It grabs you by the balls and doesn’t let go until the last note’s been shredded to pieces.
The Danger is pure, unfiltered adrenaline, a war anthem designed to obliterate dancefloors and leave listeners picking their brains off the walls. You’ve been warned.

The Danger

***ANNOUNCEMENT***

Remix competition for this track begins August 1st and runs through November 2nd. Visit warlock-audio.com/remix-contest2025 for more info.


Unleashing a barrage of precision-engineered sonics, OMNEUM returns with Psi Reaver - a neurofunk juggernaut fusing retro-futurism with raw dancefloor energy. Driven by a snarling, 80s-style pluck bass and drenched in high-voltage sci-fi synths, the track slices through the void with surgical force. Pounding drums hammer the pulse of a synthetic battlefield, while layered atmospheres conjure visions of deep space skirmishes and rogue AIs. A standout cut from the Cybernetic Modules single, Psi Reaver is an auditory weapon designed for the next-gen neuro head. Prepare for full neural override.

Behind us lie the ruins of a half-day's fight; in front of us, finally, the "Dasaera fortress" shines, occupied by hundreds of cannons and fighters, all aiming and locked on our next and final move.
Our allies, powerless too, but at a safe distance.
Our ship, a pond of holes, empty smoking weapon shells and magazines, all out, nothing left but us bleeding out blood and oil and boiling tired anger, ready to end one or the other.
Everything has come to this point, a turning point for the liberation of Saika, another planet from the Autonomous, a split second before us.
We are so close, so, so close to having a first base, right now and forever.

I turn to Broel, who has been silent since the last wave of wiped-out catchers; a critical 5-minute game of waiting is about to come to an end. They will start shooting any second now. We are outnumbered, outgunned, and out of options...
Oh well... This life was never mine to begin with...
—"Broel, we're out of weapons and maneuverability, and this fortress packs a punch that can end us; please tell me there's a reason you're so silent."

Broel turns to Zan: "I understand that this is a modified mining slab."
Zan: "Certainly, the K-drons’ gift with Aamsit attached."
Broel: "Fuel?"
Zan: "76%, 'fullback system.'"
Broel: "A gift from the heavens..."

In what I can describe as something of a telltale that I don't feel like forgetting, the sun is dropping through the top window on Broel, facing me with a grin: "Kira, whose ambush is this?"

That very grin made me smile as I realized what this psycho meant: that this Slabship is not just a slab ship; it has an Aamsit—a damn Imperial fighter engine—and a mining front end thicker than a High Order mothership.

—"See? We got one bullet left."

You have got to be effin’ kidding me.
We are about to become a bullet shooting through the Dasaera fortress.

—"Zan, Kura, fasten your seatbelts. We aren't dying here, and if we are, we might as well liberate Saika in the process.
Zan, initiate Operation 'Saikapath.'"

I return the grin to Broel on a stupid joke because this crew changes everything, including ways of dying.
Zan: "Afterburner in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,"
—For you, Saum, Tarzel...

AFTERBURNER

Our yearly instalment of the Antimatter series is here, and this year is packed with some of the most exciting new talent emerging out of the Soundcloud primordial soup. 

Opening up the release is an ITL frequent-flyer, Archaea with the talents of SamSHB and Temple in support to deliver some of the sharpest engineering on the imprint. 

Following on is a special one - Ton Dune & FLOONK featuring Kaylee is a Dutch & American trans-Atlantic collaboration which we're really excited to get out into the world. A vocal led anthem with a powerful kick in the instrumental - this one does damage. 

Another returning member of the ITL crew is next with Ethera. This Berliner has been making some serious moves in the last year, and so we welcome back with open arms to drop Usually. We love a spooky vocal - keep an eye on this talented writer.  

Insane sets & elite baguettes, LoveTheEND has taken the time out of his busy schedule of being a don to write Iced Out for the series. Ju is a great friend and with tracks like this he's keeping up the momentum of releasing great music time after time. 

The quinquennial track on this year's flagship is Black Sky from producers Osprey & It's Tricky. Osprey has been moving from strength to strength recently and It's Tricky has been on our mind a while - we felt like Black Sky encapsulates the energy that the Antimatter project tries to convey. 

Top to bottom great music & great people to back it... we're proud to present 2025's Antimatter.
