NEURO3

Among all the electronic music trends coming and going like waves through Czech playlists there are few constants; drum & bass is however one of them. It is built on strong foundations of tireless fans willing to dance the night away again and again, upcoming and experienced djs looking for new tracks and mixdowns, passionate promoters and last but not least labels caring for producers and giving them a chance to get their music out into the world.

One such label is Hoofbeats Music founded in 2016 by members of Hoofbeats dj crew. This lively bunch is responsible not only for monthly events in Olomouc and its surroundings with foreign headliners more often than not, but also for their own open air festivals and numerous trips to other events around both Czechia and Slovakia. That was however not enough for Petr Vicher (Qo), Marek Vehovský (Computerartist) and David Polášek (Joshu4) – after djing and producing they wanted to release their own music as well.

The first single was one of Qo's own with his long term buddy Computerartist. Members of the original dj crew provided the following releases up until 2018 the label was joined by Holotrope, Kutlo and the first truly foreign artist – french Bl4ck Owlz. Next was Changing Faces, The Clamps, Gancher & Ruin, Agressor Bunx or TR Tactics, steadily turning a local label into an international family of musicians.

It became a Hoofbeats Music tradition to put out an anniversary compilation. The first was a look back at the initial two years, offering original tracks as well as remixes and VIPs. Only two years passed when Hoofbeats assembled a mighty list of almost 40 tracks. This time however on the eve of their fifth anniversary they decided to up their game again, focusing on quality rather than quantity and bringing 13 tracks from producers fresh and well known in the family. Original Hoofbeats crew is represented by Qo, Modetech, Computerartist or Symplex featuring Nuklear MC and Holotrope is also no stranger. Changing Faces has joined forces with Lottie Woodward to make a fifth song in a row together while Furious Freaks invited Anna Vaverková into their studio. Variants already have a mark on Hoofbeats with their single The Painter / Seasons but Diffe is a completely new talent. Kutlo and Trilo close the ranks of Slovakian guests and the only remix of the whole album belongs to Shmidoo, also the artist behind the cover illustration.

The Hoofbeats Family LP brings all sorts of musicians united under Hoofbeats Music and shows their real talent. Something for fans of smooth liquid funk or brain melting neuro while preserving the main focus of Hoofbeats since the day the label was founded – hard hitting double drop ready dancefloor bangers. The spirit stays alive: to party our way with our family.

Gradual - Industry EP [FREE DOWNLOAD]

It hasn't taken long for Alerstorm and Ice Stereo to establish their neuro-tinged Gradual guise as one of Technique Recordings' heavy hitters. Having introduced themselves to the label with some dark and techy flavours, they were last seen on the Summer 2016 compilation bringing the more sunlit vibe of “Falling Pieces”. So, we know they've got multiple facets to their style, which makes this EP a particularly exciting prospect.

The title track, “Industry”, is a team-up with Gradual's compatriot Impak. The evolving arpeggios and pads of the intro are dramatically counteracted by percussion which grabs hold of us and drags us to the drop. Then there's an almighty battle between warping bass, technoid stabs and pitch-bent tones to keep the energy at an absolute peak. And the breakdown, rather than offering relief from the madness, just provides an opportunity to build back into a melee of tempo-switching craziness. If you want to take hold of the dance's attention and refuse to let it go, here's one to pull out.

“Caution” immediately envelopes us in dark velvet synths, which sweep and rise, set off by hints of percussion. There's anticipation and tension right from the get go, and it feels inevitable that the drop will bulldoze all before it. Which it does. The smoothness of the intro is brutally chopped into relentlessly staccato slices, supported on a foundation of driving bass and the kind of expertly-programmed drums we've come to expect from Gradual. This is a piece of rock-solid rollage that's the ravers won't be able to resist.

The title of “Helium” makes sense straight away. A crazy pitched-up vocal riff sets the tone, and things just get more twisted from there. Old skool stabs hark back to the anything-goes experimentalism of early jungle and the drop takes that idea and runs with it. The vocal sample is subjected to all manner of sonic violence and combined with the driving bass and beats to give a constantly-shifting array of patterns. This track is beautiful insanity, demonstrating that Gradual can give us something we've never heard before while still keeping the dancefloor firmly in their sights.

“Peevish” can be summed up by one word: intense. There's just a fractional moment of peace as a calming wave of pad introduces the track but within seconds that's disturbed by a distorted gritty stab. From there the track becomes a wall of energy. It hasn't even dropped before the low-end's filled out with a lava-flow of power. Then as the full assault of the drums and bassline hit, backed by unrelenting mid-range grind, it becomes a claustrophobic tunnel of music. When it's time to dark things up, this is a tune to draw for.

It might be a free download, but there's nothing cheap about these tunes. Each one has musicality, craft and rave power and each one teaches us something new about Gradual's production abilities. If this is the direction these Spanish technicians are heading in, then there's some distinctly dangerous material to look forward to.

The time is 3am, and inside a gloomy cave a tall, dark hooded character stands narcissistically at a grand, black, bubbling cauldron, rhythmically stirring a concoction of bizarre and outlandish kick-drums, hi-hats and snares.



The elixir begins to steam wickedly as the cowled being meticulously adds the final element, synthetic bass. 



The potion uncontrollably hisses and pops and a giant plume of purple smoke emits from the centre of the vessel causing the necromantic alchemist to stumble backwards. 



The toxic, purple plume aggressively ascends to the caves canopy and then, upon impact, the cloud audibly roars & moulds into gargantuan, sharp toothed head of a lizard as it engulfs the sorcerer in one, whole gulp.  



The warlock created a monster.

The sky was different that night. Though clear and cloudless, full of many stars that shone with luminous intensity, something was missing. It was as though someone had cloven the galaxies in twain, sundering the universal whole into two eerily separate pieces. The warrior Orion had been struck down, and elsewhere in the night the two dippers leaked inky darkness from within their ever full cups. The roar of leo rang out silent, libra’s scales were detached, and gemini bore forth not twins into the universe but rather two distinct entities tied not to each other. On the planet below, great seers and sages scrambled to make sense of this portentous occurrence, beseeching their gods and consulting their oracles with an urgency in the face of a fate that came unknown to their doors.

For there beneath the sundered sky arose creatures of myth and legend, horrors conjured forth from the terrors of sleep and raised from the sacred graves where honored dead had safely lain. The souls of some few living departed their bodies, wandering aimlessly about as phantoms in their own world, peering forth through a shrouded and ethereal veil into the rooms in which their bodies and those they loved still slept. Above, the void that sliced the sky called softly, beckoning to its levied host to walk the world in the absence of the living. Theirs was an existence of horror, condemned to shadow and storied tales that existed not under light of sun nor star. Yet here, amidst the watchful blindness of their ominous controller, they had been graced with darkness amidst which they could be born. For this was the night of fears, when the terror of the mind stood alongside the body that had made it. In creeping darkness, under sundered sky, this was the night of the BLACK STREAK.

SMOOTH returns to Eatbrain with a momentous single release, BLACK STREAK. Rallying the monstrous menagerie of the EATBRAIN horde with the frantic tonalities of its twin tracks, BLACK STREAK & ROUGHER, SMOOTH injects his hyperenergetic sonic sequences into the ears of the horrendous horde, propelling them further under the darkness of the BLACK STREAK.
