Out 20th Nov. 2015 on Viper Recordings. Buy on iTunes: http://smarturl.it/vpr081 | Beatport: http://bit.ly/vpr081bp | Spotify: http://bit.ly/vpr081spot. More info: http://bit.ly/vpr081info

Earlier this year BMotion dropped 'Bear Hug / Vice City' on Viper Recordings. The single was met with a rapturous reception from both ravers and DJ's alike. Smashing out clubs from Cardiff to California, 'Bear Hug' was championed by luminaries such as Matrix & Futurebound, Brookes Brothers, Calyx & Teebee, Dimension, S.P.Y, ShockOne, Metrik, and Drumsound & Bassline Smith to name just a few.  

Already an established and respected member of the Viper family, BMotion returns with his third and arguably largest release on the label thus far in the form of 'Arabia / Ignition'.

'Arabia' is full of eastern promise and percussion. A beautiful and almost mystic vocal floats over the build until it hits you like a sand storm with rolling beats and an extremely rude bassline.

'Ignition' lulls you into a false sense of security with its lush and cinematic melodies before the massive bassline abruptly deals you a slap across the face and demands you wake up and listen.

BMotion's continued assault of high quality bass and beats has seen him win fans in very high places. From Sigma, Netsky, and DJ Marky, to UKF, Liquicity, and Friction on BBC Radio 1, he has impressed the right people in the right places. His latest single is sure to continue this trend and see him continue to build on his reputation for massive dancefloor tunes and immaculate production.

It hasn't taken long for Document One to define their own niche among the Technique Recordings roster. Brimming with multi-genre experience, this team has come well-equipped with a fresh and clean production style, overt musicality and uncompromising levels of funk. This release reasserts their commitment to the dancefloor while showing off yet more colours from their palette.

“Run the Block” takes the tough but smoky sound that Document One has made their own and adds a layer of East Coast hip-hop flavour. The rap-along vocal, that trademark upright and synthetic bass fusion, the popping drums and live-instrument arrangement combine to make this tune a definitive statement of Document One's musical heritage. And of course, that means it has that jazzfunk dancefloor energy in abundance.

Then “Small Steps” flips the script, darkening things up in a way you might not be expecting from these guys. The intro is the sound of approaching menace, as military drums call the dance to order. An eerie dialogue sample ratchets up the tension, before a building kick pattern is deployed as a call-to-arms. Then the drop is all about those twisted tendrils of bass, snaking around techstep drums and ghost-in-the-machine stabs. This is what happens when musicality meets aggression on a hell-bent mission to mash up the rave.

So, as well as keeping a firm grip on their low-down dancefloor funking credentials, this release has proved that Document One have a love and talent for all sides of this music. As their track titles declare, they “Run the Block” in the funk neighbourhood and they're making “Small Steps” into the shadowy technoid realm. Now they've shown they can kill the dance in both, it's clear the Document One operation doesn't believe in boundaries.

Tracklisting:

 1.	Run the Block
 2.	Small Steps

Pre Order

Document One - Small Steps [ Friction Premiere]

With over a decade of providing the most cutting edge drum and bass the genre has produced, and after putting out monstrous release after monstrous release on the world’s leading drum and bass label Ram Records, Audio has cemented himself as one of the world’s all time heavyweights. Whether it be playing to crowds of 15,000 people at festivals such as Rampage, or at an intimate, local club, there is one thing that Audio is renowned for and that his trademark dark sound and ability to fuse elements from all ends of the spectrum and make it sound as nasty as possible.

The first track is no exception. The sinister tones of ‘Now the Future’ set in and grab hold, taking you into the mind of Audio’s twisted vision of the future. Percussive elements tick away under petrifying atmospheres, building up into an unstoppable bassline offensive. Perfectly executed pitched up drums rhythms cut through delivering an onslaught of dancefloor carnage leaving no escape.

And next up is ‘Drop It Human’. Kicking off, spine chilling and twinkling blips immerse you into the twilight zone. As the main lead filters into the build, the track thrusts into a sonic array of growling mids and low end sub grit, delivering a devastating blow. Audio’s precise, sharp, stepped trademark drum sound forms the backbone, marching the track through to inhuman perfection. 

Audio yet again sets the bar with two monstrous cuts that are set to dominate the clubs and festival circuit in 2016. Audio consistently shows the world that he is an unstoppable force to be reckoned with no signs of stopping and the momentum keeps on building up. This is ‘Now the Future’ and ‘Drop It Human’.

All 3 tracks deliver the straitjacket tight production values fans of EastColors have come to expect and are sure to increase his already ascending popularity. 

EASTCOLORS & NAMI - TIMES - Air cushioned pad sweeps, subterranean winding and resonating bass layers open up this monster. Proceeded by captive-animal, bar rattling, intense beats assembled and moulded with the precision of a Swiss timepiece. An absolute raging beast of a release.

Tantum Desire - Nationwide Rocker 
Out Now: Beatport Excl: http://bit.ly/NationwideRockerTD
iTunes http://smarturl.it/TECH131

The Tantrum Desire brand is most associated with the kind of epic  productions that have seen drum and bass become a mainstay of the mainstream. True heads will know that there’s always been an undercurrent of genre-twisting experimentalism present, which came to the fore on last year’s huge album Diversified. 


Nationwide Rocker opens in a dark and techy landscape. Reverberating stabs underpinned by the insistent buzz of low end strikes suggest we’re building into a display of neurofunk technique. And then we’re dropped into something that isn’t quite categorisable. It’s hard, dancefloor music, built from a stripped-back rhythm sequence and a succession of expertly-twisted basses. This is the collision of raw, visceral energy with that trademark Tantrum Desire slick 
production science.
Then Airhead takes us somewhere different. With a funky techstep call and response pattern, this is an instant dancefloor bubbler. And there’s an eighties electro sensibility woven into the stabs and synth-effectswhich makes this feel like it could be a 2016 rework of a forgotten crate-dug classic. It’s minimal and focussed but, as you’d expect from Tantrum Desire, it refuses to let the temperature drop, with precision-crafted builds to keep attention gripped on the 
bass-and-mid interplay right to the finish.
Next up, Anarchist appropriates the tropes of nineties hip-hop-influenced jump-up to give the sound a modernist renaissance. Rather than using a rap sample, Rhymestar is enlisted to provide the lyrical punch. His bars roll out over the half-time intro, and then peppered throughout as vocoded motifs to confirm that old skool vibe. There’s nothing old skool about the production levels, though, as the icicle-sharp drums and honey-and-lemon bassline drive the rave 
onwards.
You won’t be prepared for what Think About You has to offer. A bleeps-and-pads hands-in-the-air hardcore intro drops into some triplet-time rave workout material. We’re treated to mid-range grind resolving into luxuriant sweeping tones over a skippy 6/8 time-signature. But ravers and MCs better not get too comfortable, as a “Switch it up” sample 
signals a slam into 4/4 time. Then the breakdown cools things off ready to go back in with the madness once again.
If you didn’t know about Tantrum Desire’s versatility then you should have been paying closer attention. Don’t worry, though, because this EP is a perfect representation of the serpentine rule-bending contained within the sound. It’s all dancefloor music, but beyond that, anything’s possible.

Coming Soon!!

The red glow of the setting sun spills across the dojo floor. One of Eatbrain’s mightiest warriors casts a dark silhouette against the backdrop of this dying day, composed and coiled to strike in the fading light. With the birth of night they will rise again, the immortal undead, shuffling in the darkness on an endless journey to the signal source. He is the watcher of the night, the last point of defence, upon his intricate and swift skills all hope rests. Night is here, they are arisen from the depths… time to kill the dead again.

L 33 strikes and connects a skilfully executed blow for EATBRAIN, dropping the sampler for his forthcoming album within the precise and perfect form of the KARATE EP. Comprising a sequence of 4 devastating moves, this is deadly taste of a gargantuan LP yet to come on one of neurofunk's leading labels. The EP lands its deadly intentions with BLOODBRAIN and EARTHBOUNCE deliver a pair of neuro bangers with swift pace and sharp-edged reeses, whilst CLUBLIFE and ZEALOT deftly push heads down to immerse ravers within their weighty rolling energy.

For the second release of 2016, Eatbrain brings the pain – delivering a mighty assault upon the dance from an artist who resides deep within the palpitating heart of the label, and serving as a herald for an even greater release to come.
