"Starting a label is always an adventure. Some jump straight in from the get-go and some take years to muster the courage and know how to feel confident enough to give it a try. We are of the latter kind. After years of djing and party promoting we feel that the time has now come for us to begin this journey. As we set forth into the unknown we would like to thank all of our friends and the various people that have supported the project through all these years. Thank you !"

Mershak - Industry

This was made before the vocals were recorded for what would go on to be released as part of Modern Hypnosis 003. Re-arranging the chord progression and chopping up parts of the stems before adding some techno style hat sequences and dubbing it all out in real time. Out to Another Channel (https://soundcloud.com/anotherchannel) for the original music.

Another Channel - Corruption (Mystik Remix)

Exhibiting an almost timeless quality, the latest EP from UVB-76 Music is a four track, various artists endeavour into the most solid of fundamentals. A four-man hit squad of label newcomers assembles in the form of Entire, Nekyia, Forest Drive West and DB1. Going against the grain of contemporary production fad, each track is a reduction to core sonic ideals. Unapologetically raw and refined in a directly contradictory manner.

CBR028 - @Crypticz-1 - The Path
Pre-order >> http://bit.ly/CBR028

Combining experimental Jungle, slow skanking Dub-Techno & mediative bass weight to stretch the sonic boundaries of Drum & Bass and Dub music. Crypticz’s return to Cosmic Bridge is full of dubwise surprises, clever sampling and a flair for progression that takes Jungle influenced music to a new level.

Ltd Edition 12” Vinyl & Digital // Released: 26th October 2018

A1. The Path
A2. Teachings
B1. Inner One Dub
B2. Lost One



Cosmic Bridge welcomes back Crypticz, aka English producer Jordan Parsons, for another EP of deep dancefloor experimentation full of dubwise textures and surprises. Since his 2017 release for the label, Parsons has shed technical limitations in the studio, opening himself up to new ways of writing and performing. This growth is reflected in The Path with four tracks that further stretch and redefine the sonic boundaries of jungle and dub.

The opening title track is an epic jungle-influenced roller inspired by ideas of predetermination, choice and the butterfly effect. At just over 8 minutes long, “The Path” stretches out ahead of the listener, letting some of what’s ahead be heard while still leading the listener down unsuspecting detours. Melding tribal, dub and cinematic approaches, Crypticz takes jungle to a new level with clever sampling, layering and a real flair for progression. “Teachings” follows this with a strong sound system vibe, a tune to unite the people in the dance through sound. Inspired by a particularly powerful night at the Trinity Centre, it’s a slow skanker with a percussive groove, deep bass rumblings and layers of effected samples to create a meditative vibe.

Opening the B-side is another spiritual number, “Inner One Dub.” From the center of a slow and steady riddim, the track unspools methodically with bass pressure and an array of delicate melodies and sound effects with the result a gentle marriage of dub and techno practices that brings to mind classics from the Rhythm & Sound catalogue. The EP ends with “Lost One” and a return to a wider cinematic scope. As with the opener, this is a ride to strap in for with delicate atmospheres and pads underpinned by a tight break and solid bass that evoke both the freneticism of jungle and eyes-down power of dubstep.

“Sonically the sounds of jungle are more present across this record,” says Crypticz. “It’s a record I’m really proud of and shines a light into where I’m heading.” With its solid dub foundation and fresh approach to classic tenants of UK dance music, The Path is an essential consideration for seekers of deeper dancefloor sounds.

The Path is released 26th Oct 2018 on 12” Vinyl & Digital formats by Cosmic Bridge Records.

N-Type - Rinse Fm - 14th November 2019

On our 7th release we are proud to represent to the world young gifted producer hailing from Perm (Russia) by the name of Ninety (@ninetyxxxxxxxxx). From his very first "Ambi EP" in the beginning of 2020 on the Moscow based label UNITED (@united_gang) it became clear that a new talent appeared on the dubstep scene, which will bring a lot of joy to connoisseurs of the genre.

On four tracks of the "Shaker EP" artist demonstrates the versatility of his sound and the extraordinary ability to create a deep, mystic atmosphere. The EP starts with a trippy sound of the "Moon Sand" which envelopes you with a sci-fi and drone sounds skillfully combined with melodic strings and synths. The track hypnotically pulls you like a quicksand into the wilds of the underworld. On the "Knife Dance" unleashed bass doing his dance ting until pitched heavy synth stabs builds their own lead line. The title track sounds like it should - an earthquake with a seething bass with enough space for a skankers. The closing tune "Ghasty" endows you with a catchy melody that sticks for a long time. The artist's talent to develop the tracks worth mentioning separately - the second drop on each track of the EP opens up a new depth and edges of the sound. With this release, Ninety is confidently ending 2020 as one of the most promising newcomers to the dubstep scene.
