A label that has pathed careers for the likes of Nightwave, Hodge, Special Request/Paul Woolford and many more, DEXT Recordings announce 'Blizzard'; a fresh 12" from the enigmatic Russian techno-head, Dawn Razor.

Following releases on A R T S, Scuffed and Holding Hands to name but a few, he is best known for both his live performances and DJ sets of broken beat techno, electro, mutated bass, post-trance and everything in between.

On remix duties enters Desert Sound Colony (Holding Hands/Dr Banana), portraying his own inimitable two-step spin on 'Blizzard'. Utilising the pads to create a unique air that sits around a playful and warm bassline, the choice of remixer truly sits perfectly with the overall palate of the record.

For our 4th release of 2024 we are excited to welcome back label mainstay Mani Festo for the follow up to his excellent “Eye’s Open EP” released on DEXT back in 2022 . “Ripple EP” sees him continue to develop and elevate his sound by taking things to more of a deeper level than his previous release’s. The theme of introspection is tightly woven throughout this EP as allot of time looking inwards was done while working on the tracks which were developed from sketches’ over a two year period.
The artist says - “It’s not overtly designed for the dance floor, deep melancholic moments are ever present, underpinned by heavyweight soundsystem music, something that is deeply embeded in my inspirations”
All the trade mark breakbeats and heavily saturated drums sounds we have come to expect from Nick are Omnipresent but refined in such a way he can stamp his own signature of distinctive uniqueness.  The EP covers a diverse range of styles and emotional soundscapes from Ethereal pads underpinned by rolling breaks to straight up balls to the walls overdriven 4x4 techno nastiness, and to top things off we have one of the UKs original underground hero’s Hooverian Blur getting in on the action with a killer no nonsense remix aimed firmly at the dance floor. We Hope you enjoy the release!

DEXT Recordings is proud to present the debut EP from Hooverian Blur, a highly respected figure in the 
world of breakbeat and experimental bass. Following his remix of Mani Festo’s "Borgg" on DEXT, he now 
delivers a full-fledged exploration of his signature sound—razor-sharp breakbeat manipulation fused with 
deeply experimental, technoid influences. 
All four tracks on this EP pulse around 160bpm mark, but rather than adhering to convention, Hooverian 
Blur twists the tempo into new and uncharted territory. His precise breakbeat craftsmanship collides 
with dark, panic-inducing soundscapes, each track layered with heavy sub-bass and eerie atmospheres 
designed to disorient and captivate in equal measure. 
Futuristic synths and mechanical rhythms drive the energy forward, while cavernous bass frequencies 
add weight to every movement. Each track is a masterclass in controlled chaos—meticulously detailed, 
fiercely dynamic, and impossible to pin down. 
Hooverian Blur’s debut EP on DEXT Recordings is a fearless statement from an artist constantly redefining 
the boundaries of breakbeat music.

2. Oli Furness - Junglebook (Original Mix)
3. Oli Furness - Decisions (Alden Tyrell Remix)
4. Oli Furness - Let It Go (Original Mix)

London’s DEXT Recordings continue to strengthen their catalogue adding to originals and remixes from Dubspeeka & Visionz, Komon & Appleblim and Bodyjack with their latest offering from the Manchester based Oli Furness backed up by Clone mainstay Alden Tyrell. This, the third release up on DEXT carries the same raw brawn as its predecessors and is a rattling meld of Jungle, UK Techno and House. 

Throughout his previous releases on NDV, Morris Audio and his own Music Is Love imprint, Oli Furness has astutely touched many bases whilst drawing for the tape driven kicks, nifty sampling and intricate drum work that have been his calling card since the off. His ‘Decisions’ EP brings these tools together and opens with the title track that drives a thunderous kick under crunching stabs and a starkly contrasting vocal sample. ‘Jungle Book’ then sets a hefty break tumbling towards the introduction of a thick, flexing sub and bubbling synth patterns. 

Next up, Dutch master Alden Tyrell adds to a catalogue that reaches right back to 1999 and weighs in with a stripped and burly revision of ‘Decisions’. Powerful analogue hats are set crashing over a concrete kick and cavernous stabs before ‘Let It Go’ snowballs behind a classic break that gathers a jagged synth pattern and 90’s vocal samples that are sure to send the floor into rapture.

MAK & PASTEMAN RETURN TO DEXT RECORDINGS WITH ‘GOLD TEETH’ – THEIR FIRST RELEASE IN 8 YEARS
Marking the 25th release on DEXT Recordings, we are proud to welcome back none other than Mak & Pasteman—the influential duo who helped shape the sound of the label in its formative years. After an 8-year hiatus, they return with Gold Teeth, a blistering 4-track EP that reaffirms their legacy with three raw, bass-loaded 2-step wobblers and a killer remix from rising star Stones Taro.
Mak & Pasteman’s catalogue includes heat for the likes of Lobster Boy (Redlight), Digital Soundboy (Shy FX), Naked Naked (Breach), and most recently, Unknown To The Unknown (DJ Haus). Their early output soundtracked the bass-heavy, sweat-soaked nights at London’s Swamp81 parties and beyond—nights that inspired the very launch of DEXT back in 2012.
Having them back on board for this milestone release is more than just a full-circle moment—it’s a statement. Each of the three originals on Gold Teeth slaps with signature M&P energy: gritty, hardware-driven drums, filthy basslines, and moody pads layered with haunting vocal cuts. It’s dark, driving, and unmistakably them.On remix duties, Kyoto-based producer Stones Taro brings the heat with a unique rework of the title track, flipping it into a fresh 2-step roller that’s already causing damage in the clubs.

It's been a long hot summer for DEXT; A string of quality releases and remixes from the likes of Alden Tyrell, Bodyjack, the Zenker Brothers, Lo Shea and Oli Furness plus a label showcase at Privilege in Ibiza. Only 4 releases in, the label has fast established itself as a standout player in the game. 

"DEXT Recordings are Killing it right Now" tweeted Skream earlier this year and he is just one of many who are singing this new label's praises.  

As we head into 2016, DEXT's fifth vinyl outing presents a new release from Callahan who is one half of Mak & Pasteman, the duo who have have delivered a string of club killers over the last few years. This new solo project takes his music into the deeper, darker waters of house and techno whilst still keeping that UK flavour that DEXT is known for. 
 
On the EP he's thrown down for us, he carves out 3 intense bass-heavy workouts that hit hard on the floor but display subtle layering and accomplished synth work, culminating in a an absolute banger of a release.
 
Livity Sound's Hodge steps up on remix duties. The Bristol based producer is gaining high praise left right and centre, and it's easy to see why as he pulls out a killer reworking of Don't Need. Hodge pushes the original into another dimension and rounds off the EP in fine style. Fans of his will not be disappointed.
 
At DEXT we're already getting excited about what the new year is going to bring for the label. Get set for EPs from the likes of Bodyjack, Mella Dee and some VERY special guest remixers in the first part of the year...

Callahan - Don’t Need (Hodge Remix)

After kicking off 2016 with the massive “Don’t Need EP” from Callahan featuring “that” remix from man of-the-moment Hodge, DEXT is back with another banger of an EP from fast rising producer Mella Dee. 

The man from Doncaster, UK has been creating a name for himself on the scene of late with releases on Redlight’s Lobster Boy and Sweden based Omena Records; his DEXT Debut certainly doesn’t disappoint. Over the last year or so, he has been masterfully fusing driving house & techno percussion with 90’s jungle influences and his EP for us is, we think, his strongest work to date. 

The thunderous “Deep Soul” opens things up with filtered amens, chopped-up vocals and Reece bass lines; the perfect take on the late 1993 UK sound, honed & updated with a driving techno twist for 2016.  

“Universal” is a straight up 4x4 DEXT jacker, with raw house, UKG and moodier elements blending together for maximum effect.

Finally, “Circular” is the most “heads down” of the 3 originals - hypnotic synths and incessant drum patterns wind around each other to create a seriously classy, broken, techno track.

To round it all off we have a stunning rework of the title track from Endian (Non Plus, Birdie, Secretsundaze). Twisting up the original elements, this dark warehouse version has been crafted to perfection - if you liked Hodge’s remix for us, you’ll love this too!

We kick off 2017 with a bang with a killer 12” from the fast rising Otik. Hailing from Bristol by way of London, he has steadily been building an artillery of heavy club hitters on labels including 17 Steps, Push & Run, Infinite Machine, and Durkle Disco, plus remixes for the likes of Dusky, Rosie Lowe and Pixelord, It's clear to see his ascension is moving at a strong pace and we are proud to be able to drop this for you

We won’t say much about this EP other than it fuses everything we love here at DEXT: hard hitting funky drum programming, super heavy sub basses and shades of rave, house and techno. Backed  with two remixes one from talented newcomer Erosion Flow who has released on Martyn’s 3024 label in 2016 and another mix from UK artists who are synonymous with writing club bangers Mak & Pasteman.

Artist: Pugilist, Otik, Appleblim, Commix
Title: eleVAte Vol.1
Label: DEXT Recordings
Cat #: DEXTVA001
Format: 12” Vinyl & Digital
Release Date: 5th June 2020

A1: Pugilist - Eclipse
A2: Otik - Apollon
B1: Commix - New Moves
B2: Appleblim - Hydrothermal Vents

Boasting a discography of over 18 releases, inclusive of composers such as Special Request and Mark Broom, through to Nightwave and Hodge, DEXT Recordings celebrate 5 years with a V/A compilation from label affiliates Commix (Endian), Appleblim, Otik, and Pugilist.

'eleVAte Vol. 1' explores the more profound and invigorating, sonic excursions that the label's artists have to offer.

Fresh from an EP on Midland's Intergraded imprint, Otik returns for a disjointed offering with paranoid synth work and an arpeggio that fizzes through the tweeters.

Pugilist offers up dub stabs, analogue sirens with blips of space echo on 'Eclipse', with a garage swing and Rhodes, contrasting a ruff and ready sound palate of bass weight.

Metalheadz signee Commix, (AKA Endian), returns to DEXT for a tumbling UK bass track with swung percussion and side-chained textures of rising crackle.

Skull Disco, Applepips boss and dubstep icon Appleblim, returns from a recent album on Sneaker Social Club, offering 'Hydrothermal Vents', that sees him taint a 126bpm framework with his dubstep-tinged roots, providing room for the groove to move.

eleVAte Vol.1

DEXTVA001 - PUGILIST, OTIK, COMMIX, APPLEBLIM  - eleVAte Vol.1 (CLIPS)

A1 - Pugilist - Siphon 
A2 - Pugilist - Regrowth 
B1 - Pugilist - Nightshade 
B2 - Pugilist - Siphon (Coco Bryce Remix) 

One of the UK's freshest emerging dance music labels, responsible for stalwart releases from Special Request and Nightwave, return for their 19th release.

The succinct beats of Pugilist have perked the ears of labels like Whities, 3024 and Trule to name but a few. And having previously featured on volume one of the label's new 'EleVAte' compilation series, among artists like Otik, Appleblim and Commix, he returns to the imprint for his first, full four-tracker; 'Siphon'.

The title track, Siphon, blasts through with authentic jungle chops, scattered together asymmetrically like a beautiful chaotic tapestry.

'Regrowth' is a swung garage stepper, jammed live on a 909 with earthquaking low-end frequencies that warmingly morph from underneath.

On remix duties of 'Siphon', is no other than Lobster Theremin alumni, Coco Bryce. With surreal, microprocessing of the heavyweight blows from the original, he also resamples time-stretched speech samples to devastating effect.

'Nightshade' closes out the record with its steadfast amen rinse-out and pokey 808 subs, concluding one of the most forward-thinking and new-school jungle records for the label, all the while serving as an exemplary ode to the old-school.
