When we said we were going to start off 2023 with a bang. We were not fucking about.

Start as you mean to go on as they say and how we start is big (wey hey) Dirtbox is back with its second release of 2023 already and another chapter written for the Cities EP series.

This time we venture across the pond and into 2 cities that are quite a contrast from each other, with 2 up and coming DNB producers looking to make huge waves in 2023.

“Composure - One For The Massive”
Representing the sound of sunny California right out of one of our most favourite places on the planet,San Diego. 

We introduce to you the one they call Composure.

Known to his friends as Marcelis, he is no newbie when it comes to laying down a huge release, as you`ll see from his already stellar back catalogue,

Composure has bangers already that have done the business on labels such as Audio Overload, Dubstomp 2 Bass & Divination

`One for the massive` is no exception as it showcases Composure's very own sound that has that UK roller feel throughout. It's a true Junglists upfront riddim.

A superb percussion and vocal lead intro following to a drop with the highly loved Heavy Horn lead drop and rap lead this one throughout meaning its a must for any junglist no matter where you are from.

“Avoider - System Leak”
We flip this release now on its head with something totally different by bringing to you the label's first true Tech-Step DnB track.

Avoider hails from the shores of Belfast and has been producing for a little while now and himself has a stack of back catalogue already for you to sink your teeth into.

This one has those Acid type leads filled in with a super techy bass ride. but still presents itself as a moody futuristic roller that would not sound out of place in a `Current Value` set.

Dirtbox Recordings is a Birmingham UK, based label focusing on bringing in new producers to the scene with a core-ethic of `anything goes Drum & Bass` from Neurofunk & Tech, Liquid & Rollers For press please contact us at info@Dirtboxrecordings.co.uk and don’t forget to ask us for previous releases as we can send them to you directly if you have missed any.

We are still a growing label so please make sure you like and share our pages to help us engage more with people

TR Tactics & Akrom - West Coast (Free Download)

Intruders marks a high-octane escalation in Korax’s new EP, surging forward with a volatile blend of warped basslines and kinetic drumwork. The energy is immediate and unrelenting. Warbled low-end modulations twist and ripple like sonic interference from another dimension, while the driving rhythm section hammers with surgical precision. There’s a chaotic elegance to the arrangement, as if the track is constantly mutating, always on the edge of collapse but held together by sheer force of momentum.

Where Lunar Cult lingers in shadow, Intruders kicks the door down. The sound design is jagged and alien, filled with textures that feel alive; buzzing, writhing, and ready to consume. Fleeting glitches and reverb-soaked stabs dart through the mix, giving the impression of a hostile force breaching a secure perimeter. It’s a track built for peak-time detonation, engineered to take control of the floor and refuse to let go. Korax proves once again that chaos, when wielded with precision, can be a powerful weapon.

Intruders

DUO:NAMIS - QUASAR / EQUINOX (release date: 04 July)

Stepping out of the lab and into the fray, Duo:Namis deliver a pair of tech-heavy, bass-driven neurofunk weapons with 'Quasar' and 'Equinox'. Sharp, cinematic, and punishing, this release blends precise engineering with explosive dynamics — tailor-made for DJs who crave high-impact drops and clinical production.

QUASAR:
Leading the charge, Quasar is an interstellar barrage of modulated basslines, dark atmospheres, and relentless percussion. Built for peak-hour chaos, it weaves futuristic textures with airtight drum programming. Neurofunk at its most potent — cold, complex, and commanding.

EQUINOX:
On the flip, Equinox keeps the intensity high with a more sinister twist. A moody intro gives way to a barrage of biting mids, surgical FX, and rolling subs. Tension coils throughout the track, releasing in carefully crafted drops built for maximum damage.

Another track from the first Darkshire Sound VA – BASS has been reimagined by Transforma, turning it into a raw, neuro-infused weapon. The remix carries his unmistakable signature—industrial grooves, razor-sharp drumwork, and an atmosphere that cuts deep.

PRDK - Bass (Transforma Remix)

In her EP Separation, released on Paperfunk Recordings, RiANTHE transposes the very notion of separation into sound: a tight kick-drum thump ticks off the seconds of an expanding rift, a dense bass line pulses like blood retreating from shared memories, and gauzy synth layers slowly shear apart, leaving a transparent corridor of silence where you can hear a new identity crystallising from the shards of former closeness; the music does not merely illustrate detachment—it inhabits it, revealing how an act of separation widens the space to breathe, and how, in that sonic pause between “we” and “I,” it finally becomes possible to hear one’s own echo.

PHENOM - START A RIOT [Free Download]

NERV3 – Unbalanced EP ignites with the raw power of Unbalanced, Nitrocart, and N400. Futuristic Drum & Bass, cyberpunk grit, and dancefloor-destroying energy in every drop.

Nitrocart is the dark and ruthless neurofunk. The racing intro and male sample prepare for the jump into the cyberpunk streets at maximum speed. There are no brakes here - only the law of the street, the roar of turbines and sirens behind.
