With the debut VA compilation of Basilica Blueprints laying the foundation for the label, Basilica now moves on to building higher and harder with the highly anticipated debut solo EP from UKBass heavy hitter, 9TRANE. 

9TRANE’s beginnings are a hard 140 instrumentalist featuring heavily previously on grime labels such as 1Forty have solidified hard hitting and gritty tonality to his sound. His progression into the 130 bass and techno scene then combined these elements with the groove and flow of techno and electro. 9TRANES percussion is a force to be reckoned with, slashing through the sonic walls of dark and dangerous basses and ethereal atmospherics.

The Slang EP builds a scene of intense suspense. Dark and ghostly halls of sound surround with distant swelling vocal cuts that build the wavering storm that is about to come crashing in. The storm then rolls in with an engulfing swell of deep and wobbling bass, sharp and crispy claps and percussion rolls through as the storm continues.
9TRANE’s releases have garnered the support of Jamz Supernova on BBC Radio 1Xtra, the mighty Loefah on Rinse FM and many many more, along with lining up alongside the likes of My Nu Leng, Opium Hum and Red Light.

"Apparatus“ is Rizla Ops’ debut EP on Voitax, a deeply personal creation born swiftly amidst the heartbreak of losing a close friend, Ollie Mazgaj. Crafted during a period of introspection, the EP became an anchor, the only thing that felt right in a world detached from the club and daily routine. 

Sonically diverse, "Apparatus“ explores techno, drill, amapiano, grime, and garage, maintaining a common thread of dissonance, functionality, and groove. The title track, „Apparatus, stands out as an outlier in Rizla Ops’ discography, featuring big melodic moments that capture the raw emotions of the artist at that particular time. Despite his usual preference for conveying ideas through rhythm and sound design, this EP marks a turning point, hinting at future experiments with melody and harmony. 

"Apparatus“ is more than a collection of tracks; it’s a sonic journey through genres, emotions, and personal growth—a testament to Rizla Ops’ dedication to pushing boundaries and creating immersive, thought-provoking electronic music.
