This June, ascendant Russian record producer THIR13EN returns to Australian drum and bass powerhouse
ProtoCode with his first drop of 2021: his first EP, Desecrated Village.

First appearing on the label last autumn with his thrilling debut single “Jackin” / “19 By 6”, the
Moscow-based talent has since gone from strength to strength, guesting on German institution Subplate
Recordings with the sparse, minimal two-tracker “Deactivated” / “Vital Signs” and earning endorsements
from the likes of Bass Portal and RTR FM. Drumming up a loyal following with his intricate, yet potent
approach to production, THIR13EN has turned his hand to everything from neurofunk to dancefloor D&B
with ease—with his latest outing further cementing his status as a versatile beatmaker over the course of
four high-octane cuts.

The Desecrated Village EP’s opener, “Mob Pasta”, utilises a clamouring combination of sampled raps,
formant snarls and busted, metallic percussive strikes, culminating in a truly raucous affair. “Complainer”,
meanwhile, is a tightly programmed triumph, its detailed, techstep-leaning arpeggios leading into gritty,
yet pared-back crescendos with an irresistibly funky underlying groove. The project’s namesake,
“Desecrated Village”, is a comparatively cinematic but equally turbulent number, with the fledgling artist’s
penchant for sampling shining through in the form of spoken-word excerpts. Last up is “For Today”, a
lighter concoction anchored on a saccharine topline, rugged, rolling basslines and twinkling synth plucks
which showcases a markedly different side to THIR13EN.

Find the EP exclusively on Beatport and Spotify from 7 June; it’s set to reach the full range of outlets a
fortnight later on 21 June 2021.

THIR13EN - For Today

This third release from Rubi Records sees Skeptical—stepping out of his usual drum and bass territory and slowing things down with three seriously deep dub-infused bass tracks in the 140-150bpm realm.

New music, new energy - Critical is proud to unleash the latest edition of cutting-edge sonics from its ever-evolving roster of talent.

Featuring 21 tracks that encompass the full Critical sound, ‘New Energy Vol 2’ combines fresh music from core label acts with productions from the imprint’s latest wave of recent contributors and fledgling artists.

Emperor’s ‘Jealousy’, ‘Close To You’ from label boss Kasra, YANO’s ‘Drained’ and Particle’s link-up with MC Verbz on ‘Stay The Night’ bring the late-night soul amongst a collection of tracks conceived for and born from the darkest corners of the dance floor.

There are tough, no nonsense and expertly crafted rhythms from well established names Enei, Calyx, T>I and Samurai Breaks (who debut on Critical with the manically experimental ‘Lemon Poppers’).

As always with Critical, though, the focus here is firmly on the future, with the bulk of tracks coming from the many newer names who have debuted on the label and its talent-shaping offshoot Binary over the last couple of years.

Unashamedly heavy, deliciously brutal rhythms come from the likes of SMG, VISLA, ABLE and QZB, alongside stepping grooves from En:Vy & Molecular with ‘Black Opal’ and Waeys & Azumai’s ‘Doggy Marriage’, plus template troubling, experimental crushers from Spectral on ‘TurboWave’ and Napes’ grime inspired ‘Balaclava’.

Reaching right across the sonic spectrum - ‘New Energy Vol 2’ is a panoramic perspective of electronic music’s most forward-thinking genre.
