This one is called "Missed Call."

It’s about that weird, sinking feeling you get when you see you missed someone. That little jolt of "what if?"

You’re left staring at the screen, wondering what they were going to say, or maybe regretting that you didn't pick up. It’s a whole quiet, lonely story packed into one notification.

I tried to put that specific, late-night feeling into a track. This is for anyone who's ever hesitated to call back.

The 8th release from The Dreamers celebrates one year of activity of the label with a sublime EP from HLZ, former Need for Mirrors member and experienced producer, with releases on many important drum and bass labels. The EP starts with the “From the past” title track, a breath taking liquid roller that sets the mood for the entire work and features dreamy vocals from 'Awakem'. Track B. “Dream source” brings you to an oneiric dimension rolling over a solid beat while the track C. “Nightcrawler” is a lush combination of glitchy beats, deep bass and classic drum and bass atmospheres. Track D. “Sparkles” closes the EP with a fast footwork vibe.

Nu:Logic is a collaborative partnership between Hospital stalwarts Nu:Tone and Logistics. Individually, the Gresham brothers have released a total of seven long players already on Hospital, each to great critical acclaim. The sum of their combined powers is oozing with the kind of soulful drum + bass, which is the foundation of the Hospital label and will satisfy long term fans who hanker after the golden days of the genre.

Having brought us the Nu:Logic “New Technique” EP in 2010 and the recently released follow up single “Morning Light / Grizzly”, the duo now bring us their highly anticipated debut album “What I’ve Always Waited For”.

Opening with the calm, mellow soothing sounds of “Morning Light” we are taken through a variety of styles across the 14-track album. Vocal-driven cuts are peppered throughout the album and there’s some top collaborations in there, including “Everlasting Days (ft. Lifford)” with its warm, uplifting vibe, the growling spoken swagger of “We Live There (ft. DRS)” and the blissed out “Shoot Me Down (ft. Robert Manos)”.

Elsewhere, don’t miss out on the excellent “Start Again (ft. S.P.Y)” with the raw, bass heavy menacing tones, as well as the meditative title track “What I’ve Always Waited For” which is all whirring atmospherics and pattering drums. Two interludes “Escape Pod” and “Dusk” successfully segment the album into thirds. With so many musical gems to choose from, one thing is for sure - this has been worth waiting for.

The inherently precise forward movement of Swiss duo QZB continues apace as they deliver their most accomplished music yet. From the impressive cinematics and dancefloor blows of ‘Tech Priest’ and ‘Underneath’, QZB push that much further into the experimental tempo excursions of title track ‘Delirium’ until they fire back up into the future funk of ‘Spez’, collaborating with new name IHR.
Also included is the VIP of ‘Take It All’ ft. Charli Brix, the title track of their memorable EP from Critical last year.

Critical music is a UK Drum & Bass label releasing some of the freshest breaks and beats around. Created and nurtured by Kasra, the imprint has gone from strength to strength over recent years. 2009 has seen this continuing with massive releases such as the Break Remix of Spectrasoul's Alibi and Sabre's glorious Original Sin.

To usher the Autumn in, Critical Music are proud to announce the forthcoming release of their latest album project. Following on from the huge All Sounds Electric Series we bring a new concept. Eight tracks from the hottest producers in Drum and Bass right now, housed in a deluxe gatefold package and a double CD, again in deluxe packaging featuring the eight tracks from the vinyl on one disc and eleven brand new tracks on the second disc.

Each track on this album encapsulates all that is great and good about underground Drum and Bass. From the blissful beat workout of Break's "People Are Different" to the blistering tech infused funk of Spectrasoul's 'Wedgehead'. A storming selection of the cream of today's scene.

The CD package combines the vinyl tracks with a whole extra disc of fresh material. Dubstep champ Ramadanman comes with his own brand of stripped down dnb, Russian new kid Enei brings the future flavour and we are privy to the first ever solo production from label boss Kasra with his own track perception.

This is the Critical Sound...

Exit Records is at forefront of electronic music, constantly pushing the envelope in terms of aesthetic and execution.
Label owner dBridge strikes a careful balance between releasing music that serves a purpose for dancers and thinkers alike. The roster of artists involved in the label is allowed express themselves as they see fit with only one stipulation; pushing the genre forward.
The Exit Records club nights are typically riotous affairs- they stand as a mix of the most cutting-edge music crossed with a firm eye on the dancefloor, from stages at festivals to residencies at clubs across the world, the events are known to sell out.
As the label enters its 15th year of existence a confidence in sound and direction has come to the fore and this is what cements Exit Records as a go-to label for those inside and out of the genre.
