Skin Teeth presents: Fractured Rave - Aaja Channel 2 - 10 06 23

Blood Trust makes a pitch-black return to the Digital Red Label series with "Give Them Rope" and "Leagues Apart", revealing a decelerated, yet intricate evolution of the signature sound he first introduced on 3024. 

"Give Them Rope" navigates the murky terrain of mutant UK garage and grime influences, hinting at the pulse of Diwali-rhythm dancehall. An ever-present double-time roll punctuates through distorted ambience, evoking a sense of relentless drive. 

"Leagues Apart" delves deeper into the skeletal framework of UK garage, but deviates into a stripped-back, darker space with precision bursts of fragmented breaks. Are these tracks Drum & Bass or has Blood Trust begun an exploration of something else entirely?

Guest Mix 24. Invincible Cut ***Free Download***

Pepsi Slammer hits SweetBox with two cut-throat hardcore belters.

Release Date: 3rd November 2023
Pre-order: https://sweetbox.bandcamp.com/album/pepsi-slammer-jazzies

Fresh from his gnarly remix of Gaunt’s ‘Firefloor’ for sister label Diffrent Music, the Londoner ups the ante with ‘Jazzies’, a grime-meets-breakbeat sheller packed with dramatic strings, sirens, pirate radio vox and the gulliest of low-ends. Pure slewidge!

Flipside ‘Waste My Time’ is just as dangerous, with a slippery, swinging beat and relentless, pulsating bassline. Constantly reinventing itself and attacking from unexpected angles, it’s another dancefloor damager that stands out in any set.

Co-founder of South London record store and electronic music hub, Planet Wax, and lathe-cut specialists 1-800-Dubplate, Pepsi Slammer (AKA Sicknote) is a true vinyl obsessive and a walking encyclopaedia of hardcore, jungle/drum & bass and so much more — and he’s put all that knowledge to good use delivering two distinctive club heaters in classic SweetBox fashion. Slammer by name, slammer by nature!

To see out the end of 2023 in style, eatmybeat welcome back Bristol-based Kahter to the label. As a long-term affiliate and remix collaborator on earlier projects, it was a given that Kahter would return for a full length EP. He delivers 4 low-slung, club-ready hits full of UK bass and techno flavour, complete with an additional 5th track; a remix from Italian bass don Kimber. The project, titled “Kord EP” explores subterranean depths, expansive sound design and intricate drum combos.
