Sad but true: We're living in times where neoliberal fascists are on the rise and batshit crazy nationalists want to make their country "great again". And although not every politician is a liar and there is still hope left I am very happy that more and more artists (like Sun People) raise their voice and define their position. Because there can only be one answer: Fight dem back! 

On the name giving A-side of his Through These Eyes release Sun People uses an iconic vocal sample, adds a gut-wrenching '95 style bassline and tops it all off with some of the finest razor sharp percussions in the genre to deliver one of the most stomping tunes you'll hear this summer.

Sun People - Fight Dem Back

@ill_k

"Herb Dub", the leading track from ILL_K's TTE release, starts with a catchy but not overused vocal sample, until he unleashes some heavy jungle breaks upon us.
Then he unpretentiously switches into some halfstep rhythm just to spice things up a bit more.

Astrophonica is proud to present Gradients Vol. 2.

The second in the Gradients compilation album series and curated again by London producer and label head Fracture, Vol.2 celebrates Fracture's forward-thinking ethos, the label's expansive stylistic roots and the sheer brilliance of catching a vibe.

Vol.2 is another all-killer-no-filler experience this time featuring: Warp/Ninja/Rephlex/Mu releasing and electronic generation shaping Luke Vibert dropping acid at 165BPM, a dream come true reboot of Om Unit & Machinedrum's dope AF collaborative alias "Dream Continuum", DnB legend, (Full Cycle label head, Reprazent and Breakbeat Era member) DJ Die & Digital Soundboy Dismantle's double heavyweight "DieMantle" partnership, full-time LA Footworker and Teklife OG Taso, NYC Beatmaker & Ninja Tune & Planet Mu artist Falty DL. PLUS.... label mainstays and big time soundboys all; Parisienne dub wizard Moresounds, the Modern Junglist with the golden touch, Sully and a NXLVL-Powers-Combine-Triumvirate Sam Binga, Lewis James and Rider Shafique getting 'Everfresh'. Fracture himself contributes a longtime club weapon from him and long-time production partner Neptune and give us the first taste of his experimental 160 BPM Fast Techno aka Turbo Berghain (consider yourself on notice. You heard it here first!) Add in Hyperdub's freshest, Proc Fiskal, who continues his 'damn son' unique streak and Lit international "insta-sign" contributions from Canada's Groves, Spain's Iberian Juke label heads BSN Posse (Broken Lip & Stay Puft), LA's ONHELL and Portland's Sigrah and you might see what Charlie Fracture sees.. Vibes for miles. In our opinion this is some of the freshest most exciting music this year so hats off to all the vibe catchers and to Fracture for bottling some of their best.

We turn you over to that man Fracture to give you his personal insights

It really is my pleasure to present to you Astrophonica's second full length various artist compilation: Gradients Vol. 2. It carries on seamlessly from where Vol. 1 left off with a mix of label regulars, new names and some real head turners. It took some time to curate given the success of Vol. 1 and I'm very proud of it. The music reflects the label perfectly.

Thanks for reading, thanks for listening and thanks for supporting. 
Peace. Charlie Fracture.

Gradients Vol.2 is released by Astrophonica on 30th November 2018 on Triple Vinyl LP + Limited Edition Tshirts & Risograph print bundles. As with all previous Astrophonica releases, the compilation sports art and design from the incredible Utile Creative Studio.

We welcome for our final release of 2019, Germany’s very own Max Hock aka Es.tereo. This, our third release on our ‘Earthbase’ series, sees Max arrive with an already solid pedigree of output via such labels such as the now defunct but seminal Hidden Hawaii imprint, as well as German modern dnb staples such as Absys Records and Urban Poetry. His perhaps most notable previous work is arguably  his ‘Theme’ project (via Samurai Music) which saw universal praise from the leftfield dnb scene and beyond , taking the landscape of dub techno atmospherics into a whole exciting new format of 170bpm-led excursions, when most people where hypnotised by minimalist sub-lead dread.

‘Ra’ Sees Max taking on a whole new level of sonic architecture, with dense and complex arrangements that almost lean into modern experimental breakbeats, remaining coherent enough for dancers at your local jungle rave. The levels are however undeniable, this is modern atmospheric jungle taken to a different level altogether. 

‘This EP was conceived whilst focusing on different energies and the translation of mixing those energies into soundscapes.  Ultima’s Breath was the beginning and is the centre of the EP. It´s the ultimate Unification/Union of those energies I feel that came out of that process. All the other pieces came with the flow subsequently and I decided to explore the different vibrations and facets which lead to this similar feeling. I feel the result is this balance of 4 expressions of this energy.’ 
- Es.tereo

The EP Sets the scene with ‘Ultima’s Breath’ a frantic but atmospheric breakbeat meditation that opens the doorway to new levels of breakbeat layering that might excite fans of skee mask, square pusher and remarc alike, moving swiftly into the heavy hitter ‘Temple Of Ra’, a half-stepping but still energetic sound-system staple, coming with a kind of tribal slow/fast style but taking the idea to a whole new level of intricacy, whilst maintaining a concrete backbeat that DJ’s can be sure to be drawing for years to come. the B-side opens with a complex tech-stepping dnb roller in the form of ‘Ancestral’ wherein The Alternating breaks provide grounding for yet another complex landscape of percussion and brush strokes of reverb and melody that orbit around the core gracefully. The EP closes with ‘Flying Disc’ - a Frantic medley of minimalist percussive motions that seem to levitate above a dominating saturated sub-bass line that will test any decent system to it’s limits.

‘RA’ is the ideal blend of dancefloor and headphones that we feel we have been honing with our output at Cosmic Bridge, and we are happy to be a part of what may be the evolution of a dnb artist about to potentially transcend the genre itself. 

This is put simply, fresh as fuck.

Limited 12" Vinyl / Digital
Released: 17th July 2020

Astrophonica maintain pace in 2020 as Philip D Kick returns to the label with the 6 track “As We Continue”. Following 2018’s “Pathways” Jim Coles aka Om Unit aka Philip D Kick adds some shine and sparkle to his already near perfect and persistent formula. Coles remains dedicated to blurring the lines and joining the dots. As we continue . . .

‘Drips’ sets the pace and opens the flood gates with a flowing groove and lingering bass womps like condensation off a low ceiling. ‘160909313’ steamrolls through with a constant Turbo drum machine drive accelerated by a non stop rolling bass riff. The doors are well and truly blown off in ‘Funk 160’ as a planet rocking breakbeat and infectious chord stabs set the pace with confidence and class. Balmy pads caress a lazy groove in ‘Summer Moods’ and conjure feelings of long evenings and ever lasting sunsets. The Riviera is all bit crushed pads and elite level breakbeat science while you enjoy the passing vistas. ’Clouds’ brings this episode to a close with a smooth glide through the stratosphere and beyond with 4/4 kicks and luscious bass arp.

'This record for me reflects the ongoing conversation between cultures and styles where jungle meets footwork meets techno, 3 cultures that share more in common than perhaps people realise, and for me this is more of a in-depth exploration for example of sonic tropes more prevalent in the world of detroit techno than other previous records. 'Clouds' and '160909313' for example being somewhat of an homage to Detroit, the birthplace of techno, yet another black music that changed the world.' - Philip D Kick / Om Unit

Philip D Kick - Drips (APHA022DDS)

“It’s not that shocking anymore when a Dubstep guy plays some Halftime, or a House guy closes his set with a couple DnB tunes.” Whilst many purists would object, Budapest-born Peter Simon, aka DJ Madd is passionate about the richness and diversity of modern electronic music. From UK Bass, Dancehall and Dub to his unrelenting spate of Halftime flips of tunes by artists such as Calibre, Flowdan and Dillinja, Madd’s output has come a long way since his first vinyl release in 2008.

Attracting followers such as Skream, Mary Anne Hobbs and David Rodigan, Unchained Recordings is incredibly excited to be a part of the growth of Madd’s unique take on Jungle, Dub fusion and beat-driven electronic.

His new All Massive EP is a three piece club-selection combination that carries heavy bass-freight across Drum & Bass, Halftime and 140. All three tracks are amazing and charged with heavy funk-etched 808s, Jamaican flavours, rolling percs and just enough darkness to fit like a glove with a well-tuned 3am club sound-system whilst keeping the dance floor charged with full dial grins."
