Since their first release for Dispatch in 2019, Genic have gone from strength to strength. With multiple releases and features for Dispatch alongside releases for Sauce Recordings, Sofa Sound and Dutty Audio, the Genic sound continues to evolve.

Two years since their debut album "Rough Nights", the full-length follow-up reflects their growth as artists and reinforces their unique take on the genre. Their sophomore LP, "Process" is packed with filtered funk and that classic Genic sound, but also reveals a deeper, more melodic side to their production.

This 11-track masterpiece includes a stellar collaboration with the celebrated MC, Fokus, adding another layer of dynamism to their already impressive repertoire.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Yunze Ou - Pattern [PCL017]

Yunze Ou is a sonic exploration where nature, textures, and experimentation merge into a profound and hypnotic journey. It's the latest project from a producer who prefers to remain anonymous, but whose productions move between IDM, glitch, and ambient. With a rhythmic base that converges at low bpms and up to 170 bpm, this project interweaves elements of deep techno, ambient, and drum & bass/halftime, creating immersive and dynamic soundscapes.

“Circuits” is a 4-track journey that weaves together the raw pulse of halftime and drum & bass with the serenity of the natural world. Inspired by rural landscapes, mountain air, and open skies, the EP explores the intersection of organic and digital—where winding forest paths meet lines of code, and birdsong echoes through data streams. Each track channels a different facet of this fusion: from dense, atmospheric textures to precise, tech-driven rhythms. Circuit is both a tribute to the untouched and a meditation on the systems—natural and artificial—that shape our experience.

SCAR return to Goldie's seminal Metalheadz imprint with the Caged EP, dropping October 2nd.

As the joint alias of veterans Survival and Script, SCAR was never going to have much of a ladder to climb; still it's the duo's finely tuned production skills - rather than previous fame - that have earned them a multitude of releases across Horizons, Dispatch and Metalheadz since forming last year.

Title-track 'Caged' sets the stage for a 3-track (plus 2 digital bonuses) romp through hard-edged drum & bass. Tight, unforgiving drum-work drives the track, and paired with a solid low end, 'Caged' makes for a formidable dancefloor weapon.

Stream the track below and pre-order the full EP - including a collaboration with Artificial Intelligence - over at the Headz store: https://shop.metalheadz.co.uk/
