Lakeway drop's his first release on Diffrent Music in two years after recently signing to the camp. "OXT EP" built up of music written during a particular time in his life. To sum up the record up in short, it's full of moody atmospheres, energetic bass lines, frantic drum patterns (and that's just the first track), basically imagine if grime crash landed at a Drum & Bass dance, then smacked you in the face!

Play loud, go nuts, enjoy!

Lakeway - Can't Get Enough [CD Only]

Chris Royle aka Dexta is a London based DJ/Producer who has been slowly contributing to the D&B scene since 2010. He is one of the co-founders of the giraffe mad record label imprint ‘Diffrent Music’ and has been fronting and developing the label ever since. 

Dexta has taken the Diffrent Music sound on the road since 2010 and tends to play an unexpected selection of music at every event. Bringing through new and unheard of artists, friends and collaborators and even influential music from outside of the D&B circuit.

Dexta has been a releasing artist since 2013 and since has released music on Protect Audio, Diffrent Music, Flexout Audio & Dispatch Recordings, with other work signed to and forthcoming on Clyon Recordings, Nurtured Beatz and his own imprint Diffrent Music.

Much like the Diffrent Music label ‘sound’, Dexta has a wide range of musical influences and this shines through when you listen over his output and the Diffrent Music back catalogue, it’s very hard to pin down a specific kind of style, it’s more about exploring and experimenting with new and different areas every time.

You can look forward to hearing and the possibility of releases of ‘communal’ and ‘general’ collaborations with artists such as Arkaik, Crypticz, Fearful, Lakeway, Mauoq, Mtwn & Sense MC.

DJ support from Amoss, Deft, Doc Scott, Fanu, Foreign Concept, Fracture, Kasra, Machinedrum, Om Unit, Rockwell & Sam Binga.

emplate - Cleveland, Ohio

bookings: 
justtodd@gmail.com

emplate first heard the sounds of Jungle/Drum & Bass in the summer of '96 and was instantly enchanted. A drummer, and heavily influenced by hip hop, metal, industrial, classical and jazz; emplate believes drum and bass embodies everything he had been listening to and loved before it.

In '99 he knew that listening was not enough. He needed more than mixtapes and parties to get his fix. Inspired by the DJs around him and his love for DnB, he dedicated himself to seeking knowledge, selection and skill. emplate soon became respected both technically and for his sets that interweave neurofunk and darker, minimal DNB tunes that are often peppered with liquid dancefloor tracks if the mood is right.

In 2006, emplate became a resident DJ at the former weekly and nationally recognized DnB event "in:verse". Always interested in moving the scene forward, emplate helped develop The Cleveland Drum n Bass Coalition and (216)BASS, both local platforms that Northeast Ohio DnB heads used as a vehicle to further their careers. In August of 2014, emplate joined up with Rockers Music. Excited about having a DnB label out of Cleveland, emplate spearheaded the local launch of the Rockers 175 label with the “Step Inside” & "Kismet" monthly events held at the Beachland Ballroom, bringing in names such as: Lenzman, Doc Scott, Total Science, Zero T, The Prototypes, Crissy Criss, DJ SS, Aphrodite, Dara, AK1200, Dieselboy & more. After stepping away from the label & the turbulent life of event promotions, he focused on being the best DJ he could be...taking his mixing to new levels & determined to prove that he's underrated, not only in his hometown & state, but the U.S. as a whole.

For two decades, emplate has been known for his diverse selection of up to date releases, promos & unreleased tracks & plays accordingly to timeslot, crowd & vibe.

“Great minds don’t think alike. They think Diffrent.”

British independent record label exploring the experimental realms of Drum & Bass / Bass Music and beyond. Established in 2010, run by Chris Dexta, Ben Funks, James Hillah & Chris OneTen

Nez Senja, now also known as Helios XL, draws inspiration from a diverse palette of influences, reflecting his belief in the timeless quality of music. A range of sound and style is evident in his music selection, which resonates with a wider audience. 

Nez Senja has been a mainstay in Singapore’s nightlife circuit for over a decade since 2010, while playing one-off DJ sets in Bangkok, Bali, Hong Kong, Manila, Milan, New York, Kuala Lumpur & Shenzhen. His style oscillates between rocking a club dancefloor and mixing lower-tempo beats for brand activations and special events. 

Online, he’s curated mixes on digital platforms of music/lifestyle brands such as Blast Radio, Mixmag Asia, Bangkok Community Radio, Singapore Community Radio, Ice Cream Sundays, See You At One, Café Kitsuné and The Lot Radio (Brooklyn), including a mix featured on Resident Advisor’s Mix Of the Day series in October 2021. 

The Helios XL alias emerged in 2023, and a more focused sound graced the inaugural Sunda Festival in September, and more recently, Keep Hush Live Singapore in 2024, supported by Carhartt WIP.

Nez Senja deals in pushing high-quality alternative music. From the raw sounds of Jungle-D&B to retro-futuristic head-nodding Hip Hop and essential forays into House, Techno, Electronica, Dub, Afrobeat, Funk, Soul, and Jazz, his music appeals to a diverse sub-cultural audience.

As a DJ, Nez Senja now appears on event billings as different aliases for a variety of styles and genres:
Helios XL – Jungle, Breakbeat, Bass, Leftfield Techno
