Puppet-master Chungo unveils an EP of four stunning 2-step productions with his first release of 2025 - 'DBGI007'. The rhythm architect has been carefully sculpting his own unique 2-step style over a slew of releases on labels such as Scuffed Recordings, Accidental Meetings and his own flagship imprint Dudbridge Garage Intl. With Corsa, Pupazzo, Imbarco & Aurora, Chungo has perfected his formula, presenting four masterfully crafted and glistening UKG gems.

The tracks are born from the concept of being sonically coerced into movement, distilled down to the essential elements of rhythm; bass, vocals and drums. Having studied the phenomenon of rhythm based primarily on the writings of Tiger C. Roholt, Chungo explores the idea of groove as the puppeteer and the listener the puppet (Pupazzo in Italian). With the elements perfectly balanced, they lock into the internal metronome of the listener, turning motion into a necessity.

These rhythmic concepts coupled with Chungo's signature sugar-sweet production stylings make for an EP of pure UKG bliss that cuts through the noise and demands dance-floor participation.

Known for his playful approach to production, Marco continues to redefine his sound, pushing the boundaries of his sound with this new EP. The 4-tracker sees Marco traverse a broad spectrum of sounds, fusing gritty, syncopated rhythms with deep, atmospheric basslines to create a body of work that’s as introspective as it is club-ready.

"The first single from our upcoming album to be released on Human Disease Network, NRJ du Désespoir marks a radical departure from our previous releases, featuring aggressive synthesizers, complex rhythms, and a special focus on sound design.

The track evokes the tacky atmosphere of late-night public radio shows, where prank calls, celebrity gossip, and the latest hits would dominate the airwaves. These references are sampled and shattered into abstraction, creating a blend of sounds borrowed from various aesthetics: breakbeat, trance, acid, garage, and bass – echoes of the 2000s resonating in a futuristic and diverse era."

In 2020, Phasmid released his debut single ‘Shunned’ on Gimme A Break’s We Are Viable compilation, raising funds to support Leeds-based MAP Charity. Five years on, the eclectic DJ and producer has announced that his debut physical EP will be released via GAB on April 4th 2025.

Having cut his teeth in the UK Garage and Breaks scene, Phasmid took an extended leave from the DJ circuit to refine his sound and production techniques. Hadal Zone is the culmination of Phasmid’s various musical explorations to date, showcasing the producer’s signature clean-cut and bass-led take on breakbeat, electro and trance fusion.  

‘Onyx’ pushes the project forward with two experiments in percussive UK bass, with a four-by-four surprise in the latter.

With In Filtration and Paradigm I wanted to explore aspects of 4x4 Grime and Techno, touching ground on the dubstep-meets-techno sound that's been making rounds these recent years. The result is an honest approach to these worlds, attempting to pick up the fundamentals while incorporating my own sense of merging grime, 2-step, techno and dubstep.

Soreab continues his rapid ascent through the underground with Ziran, a singular, undeniably seminal collection of richly atmospheric, endlessly swirling, thunderous bass and techno compositions that explode through the lithosphere like a fire fountain and find their home on Of Paradise.

After heartbreak and a stolen hard drive and laptop, a new chapter opens. Amsterdam-based Tsepo returns to Intercept with a powerful two-tracker born from both emotional and material loss. Magic Bells was rediscovered after the theft of his laptop. It was a sketch made alone in a hotel room just days after a heavy breakup, bringing a more personal and emotional twist to Tsepo’s repertoire. On the flip, Phantom Fibre stands as Tsepo’s most polished club track to date, carefully crafted over 18 months and luckily mastered right before the laptop and hard drive theft. Both tracks complement each other perfectly in their percussive and detail driven nature as well as their playful dance with the listeners sense of expectation.
