Joining us for our 9th session is South African rising star Sol Pillars. In a scene bulging at the seams in sonic talent, it takes a lot to stand out - for us, Sol Pillars is one of those artists with a sound and image intricate enough to catch any eye / ear and it's only a matter of time until he hits it big!

As usual, Enok lays down the heat for the second half of the set - tracklists for both sets can be found below. If you like what you hear please re-post the show, it does a lot for our reach!

Intention Dub EP

Fields & Mako - Price Of Imagination

Remix No. 3 off "Bounty Hunter (The Remixes)" is another debut on our label. Took us a while to finally deliver something from Belgium based dnb powerhouse The Untouchables, although our mutual brainstorming started long time ago. Better later than never or evermore. The Untouchables serve it right to our prides. Moody, mystical, hypnotic – nuttin’ but another outcome of professionalism and the out-of-this-world formula of how to deploy those tried’n’true ideas: The Untouchables biz (as usual).

Wreckless & Sweetpea - Breathe

Beatport exclusive – 5th August 2019
Worldwide release – 19th August 2019

Buy on Beatport: https://www.beatport.com/release/simulacra/2669469 

Expanding their ever-growing roster once more, Addictive Behaviour introduces another fresh and exciting artist name to the imprint with a debut EP from the man known as Wreckless. Drawing on his own life experiences and various influences along the way, he delivers an inspired release with the help of some friends.

The mysteriously titled ‘Simulacra’, is a concept based around altered perceptions, alternative realities and being removed from the world as we know it by technology. Wreckless defines this message throughout the release with his postmodern take on production worm-holing through eras with its nostalgic nods to bygone days but still remaining fresh and future-thinking. 

'Simulacra' also explores roads less travelled, experimenting with an assortment of styles and tempos which pay homage to numerous genres. And to round off the impressive array, Wreckless enlists the help of producer friends Necrobia and Sweetpea, who add their own individual touches to this collection of varied, tense and captivating cuts.

The first part, consisting of five new productions, is just the beginning of a larger project too. A follow up EP from Wreckless is expected to hit later this year and will continue to deliver the message, urging you to take off the filter, put down the phone and just listen to the raw original music.

Wreckless & Sweetpea - Breathe

https://cfunk.to/XTRAH

Returning after a year’s break from releasing music to focus solely on finishing the album; Xtrah follows up his previous EP for Cyberfunk, ‘New Perspective’, featuring the dance floor, crowd-pleaser ‘In The Shadows’ – a track that gained heavy radio, club and festival play
with support globally from such artists as Noisia, DJ Hype, Rene La Vice, and many others.

Taken from his highly-anticipated debut album ‘X’, Dispossessed embodies the razor-sharp techniques Xtrah has mastered to refine his sound after a decade’s worth of craft within the drum and bass scene.

Xtrah’s development in experimental techniques has lead to recreating organic sounding instruments and classic breaks by carving elements from synthesised soundscapes. His
mastery of digital processes has allowed him to create an album, that not only stands up in the digital era, but still retains the soul and feel of sampled records reinforcing his original approach to making music via sampling.

By some distance, ‘X’ is the meticulous London artist’s biggest project to date – one that has taken him almost three perfection-chasing years to complete but is now ready for release.

Bristolian Stephen Redmore, known through his drum & bass alias Mako, is finally set to unleash his forthcoming LP on Metalheadz, something which he’s been working on behind the scenes for some time. The label head of Utopia is well known for his slick production and penchant for underground anthems, something which has been seen again and again on his own imprint, as well as across a plethora of labels which have acted as pillars for the drum & bass world. Having already made his presence felt before within the catalogue of Metalheadz, as well as Break’s Symmetry Recordings, Dispatch, Soul:R and Samurai Music, he’s a valuable part of the genre’s make up, which is why the announcement of his forthcoming LP ignited widespread anticipation.

Directly translated to ‘a body of art’, Mako’s LP ‘Oeuvre’ is representative of his life’s work in music production. The switching breaks of ‘Heartstone’, slamming, yet eerily hollowed snares of ‘Offline’ and grinding bassline of ‘Life Cycle’ alongside the late Andy Skopes, a testament to the legacy he left behind, set the tone. Meanwhile, Villem and Fields join Mako for the LP’s next collaboration ‘Liquid Groover’ before the emotive swelling build of ‘The Window’ gives way to a second drop beat switch up, continuing the journey. ‘Flip it’ has already been doing the club rounds, as the moody Photek atmospherics of ‘One Reality’ and more affectional twists of ‘Holding You’ adds to the tracklist’s versatility.

‘The Scenic Values’ underscores Mako’s love of Krust and Doc Scott production grooves, whilst the experimental soundscape of ‘Hoxton Home’ heralds back to old Lemon D. ‘Oh Really’ finishes the album’s more club-orientated offerings, which follows with a 170bpm techno style track via ‘Passive Aggressor’. ‘Oeuvre’ is a walkthrough of Mako’s many personalities as a musician and it finds a welcome home within Metalheadz’s historic discography.

The A Side sees the Narratives owners take on Loxy & Resound to create the tag team, melody led dancefloor effort, ‘Monsters’. Solid breaks, pads and retro synth chords lead into a hushed breakdown before firing off into a cauldron of percussion, subs and wrenching reese edits. Never a label to stick to a formula, this track progresses into a different ‘monster’ altogether in the second half; enfusing the intro’s melodies with a new bassline that takes it to a more euphoric and meditative climax. With DJ Friction dropping this track as a ‘world exclusive first play’ on his BBC Radio 1 show and D Bridge calling it a ‘retro throwback for the future’ on his Rinse FM show, support has come thick and fast.
