______________________

This is Urban Poetry's 2nd 12“ vinyl release and it combines old and new in a beautiful and timeless way. Being located in Berlin, the label has been releasing 170 bpm music and beyond for almost twelve years now. Both tracks, Cruel Culture's Hyperion and Elusive Elements & Silent Mind's Immortal, first came out in 2012 as digital only releases and were musical milestones for the label. Their sheer beauty and grace is still breathtaking today. In Cruel Culture's Hyperion, celestial strings and atmospheric pads open up the doors for a dance of the titans to which the track continually evolves and takes the listener to other spheres. Tellus, an uprising star and extremly gifted talent within the 170 scene, blesses us with a modern, breathtakingly fresh and epic remix of Hyperion. Razor-sharp drums lead through the track while the characteristic strings from the original accompany a super heavy and deep diving bassline. Top notch business! The flipside follows the same concept with Elusive Elements & Silent Mind's Immortal, which offers another classic from the Urban Poetry rows. Immortal is a beautifully crafted piece of contemporary electronic dance music and is, with its classic groove, earworm melody and minimal arrangement, somehow reminiscent of the early days of synthesizer music. Kodama, to some better known as Ahmad or Acid_Lab, joined forces with Turrican for the Remix. Staying true to the original the two added their special touch and gave it a new, more etheric, outfit. The 12" release will be strictly limited and comes in a full color sleeve with a sticker and (Bandcamp) download-code. 12" and Digital will be avaible end of August 2021 via Bandcamp and other resellers.

Starmix: The A Sides (Mixed by TYPE)

none60records.bandcamp.com/album/nsycd…uxe-edition

Back in October 2011 (Halloween actually!) we released "Silent Dust" to (relative) critical acclaim, backed with remixes from Calibre, Om Unit and the legendary Marcus Intalex it helped launch none60 as a label!

We had pencilled this to be released to coincide with the 10 year anniversary but as with most things in 2021 - it got delayed!

We've had all the original album tracks wonderfully remastered by Macc to bring them into 2022.

We've also invited some of our favourite artists to remix a few tracks from the album and given them a 2022 spin! As well as remixing a couple of tracks ourselves in our original Hobzee and Zyon Base guises!

The Deluxe Edition includes 35 tracks compiling every remix that has ever been released, a few rarities and also a previously unreleased track!

Please note, the new remixes can also be purchased as a separate EP but why not go for the big deluxe bundle? It's a bargain!

All tracks written & produced by Andrew Hobbs & Daniel Blishen.

6. Ras Beats - Front Line (Ft. UFO Fev)

Shots Resurface Feat. Portarok & Ice Dogg

[Verse]

Mind sharp, blade tip, cut through the static,

Thoughts acrobatic, flipping like gymnastic.

Wallet elastic, stretch marks on the fabric,

Dreams Jurassic, stompin' through the traffic.



City glow neon, heart beatin' eons,

Clock tickin', grind strong—titan with the key on.

Snackin' on chaos, appetite colossal,

World in my palm, squeeze it like a fossil.



[Chorus]

Freestyle, no leash, words run wild,

Fast lane, no brakes, pure exile.

Heartbeat jumpin', the track hostile,

Rap fast, no time, I’m volatile.



[Verse 2]

Thoughts ricochet, brain like a pinball,

World so heavy, I’m Atlas in a windfall.

Pockets need a detox, they too slim, y’all,

But bars so thick, stack 'em like a brick wall.



Punchlines hit, Tyson with the swing,

Words like bees, they buzz and then sting.

Underdog king, crown with a spring,

Bounce back, rubber band, do my own thing.



[Bridge]

Night lit electric, sparks in the alley,

Dreams take the wheel, no map, hit the valley.

Fists to the sky, knuckles raw from the rally,

This my world, no invite to the tally.

Rapid Rhymes

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.
