Heavy Sonics Records returns with its 18th release, a two-track sonic assault from German producer KRÆK and Ukrainian powerhouse NickBee. This collaboration merges deep atmospherics with hard-hitting neurofunk, delivering two tracks that will tear up the dancefloor. 

The title track, Trenches, is an evocative piece that directly references the realities of war in Ukraine. It captures the tension and chaos of trench warfare and builds a claustrophobic, almost cinematic atmosphere before unleashing waves of crushing low-end energy. This is more than just a banger, it’s a statement.

On the flip side, Hollywood Breakfast is pure adrenaline, driven by punchy drums, razor-sharp synths, and a bassline that twists and turns with mechanical precision. The energy is undeniable, a weapon that brings high energy to the dance.

Heavy Sonics Records brings together two top-tier producers for a hard-hitting, thought-provoking release. Whether you’re drawn to the dark intensity of Trenches or the relentless drive of Hollywood Breakfast, KRÆK and NickBee have smashed this one and are a force to be reckoned with in drum and bass.

Sussex-based DJ and producer Luxs debuts on HSR with a punchy two-track release, a no-nonsense showcase of Luxs’ evolving sound. Raw, rugged, and designed for low-end lovers.

The release kicks off with Nasty Plot, a gritty number that wastes no time getting under your skin. The low-end pressure here is undeniable. Deep, snarling sub-bass lines rumble through the mix, ready to test the limits of your sound system. It's minimal but menacing, with a tension that simmers, only just beneath the surface.

Flipping the vibe, Get Up brings a more rolling groove. Still anchored by Luxs’ signature bass weight, this one moves with momentum. The drums are crisp, the progression is fluid, and the bassline coils and bounces with infectious energy. 

Luxs delivers two distinctly effective weapons here, one for the heads-down moments (Nasty Plot), and one for building energy in the mix (Get Up). Where Nasty Plot is a stare in a dark alley, Get Up is the energised run through it, head-nodding and shoulder-rolling. 

It’s a tight release that confirms his status as one to watch in the underground circuit. Expect to hear these two tracks shaking rigs in clubs and warehouses.

Bruises, the collaborative alias of Ingot and Draize, make a hell of a mark on HSR with the Cogs EP. The duo, out of the Lost Recordings camp, marks a significant moment for Heavy Sonics, being the 20th release to showcase the label’s continued commitment to deep, forward-thinking underground drum & bass.

Bruises deliver a masterclass in minimal, tech-driven sonics, every element stripped back to industrial grade for maximum impact.

Cogs, the title track, sets the tone immediately: an ominous atmosphere gives way to a mechanical groove laced with gritty bass textures and industrial stabs. It's dark, unrelenting, and full of subtle left turns. A proper introduction to Bruises’ refined sound palette.

Menace is aptly named. The haunting vocal that creeps through the intro sets a chilling tone before it drops into precision-engineered drums and weighty sub pressure. It grows and mutates with intricate percussive bursts that keep the energy taut and evolving.

Penance takes things deeper still, opening with an eerie ambience that hints at something just out of reach. It's hypnotic and steady, bolstered by a big snare and ghostly FX. It’s a track that rewards close listening while still hitting hard on a system. Pure journey material.

Closing things out is Stratagies, a standout moment and an apparent favourite among the Heavy Sonics crew. With a dramatic build and an old-school Ulterior Motive vibe, this one's primed for dancefloor destruction. The groove is infectious, and the sound design is immaculate. A high-energy payoff to a masterful four-track EP.

Big up Bruises, they've absolutely smashed this one! Essential for fans of: Skeptical, Alix Perez, Ulterior Motive, and the deeper edges of 170.

Selek, coming out of Belgium, lands on Heavy Sonics Records with the formidable Lone Wolf EP. Selek delivers a three-track project that’s equal parts brooding minimalism and raw aggression, straddling the line between stripped-back, minimal D&B and bass-driven jump-up.

The title track is a true alpha, cold, focused, and stealthy in its intent. A sinister soundscape builds with eerie precision before the drop pounces with snarling bass stabs and skeletal drums. Lone Wolf hits hard. Six leans further into Selek’s darker tendencies, perfect for those moments in the rave where the energy turns hostile. Closing the EP is Thalassophobia, a track as murky and disorienting as its title suggests.

Lone Wolf EP is a standout release for both Selek and Heavy Sonics, emerging from the deepest, darkest corner. One that highlights the darker edge of drum & bass. With surgical production and a distinct atmosphere across all three cuts, Selek cements their place as a name to watch from the Belgian underground.

Following the success of the first instalment of the Heavy Sonics Next Gen series back in December, we return with another ridiculous 4-track EP with a variety of vibes, all killer and no filler!

The "Next Gen" series is aimed at uncovering and promoting up and coming talent in the underground scene from across the globe. Vol. 2 features 6 completely new artists to Heavy Sonics and following the high bar that Vol.1 set, this tracklist does not disappoint. 

The EP kicks off with "Work" from Serbian newcomer Sneaky. With tight production and a rolling bassline, this one will get you moving and eject you into a different galaxy. In our opinion, this track would not be out of place on a compilation such as the Invisible series from the Vision Recordings camp. We're excited to see and hear more of the talented Sneaky soon.

The second track is from Heavy Sonics favourite DJ/producer, Counter Culture. The track, "Percolate", is a deep number from CC who is experimenting with the darker side of minimal drum and bass. This one fits perfectly on the B side of the release and would go off in any club on a big system. Counter Culture shows his versatility on this one, moving away from his usual silky liquid drum and bass vibes.

The next track is a collaboration between US-based Skorpion and UK-based Sceptre. "Jungle Curry" is a high-energy and frenetic track with a big bassline and punchy drums. This one will take you rolling into the weekend and is a serious weapon for any DJ to draw for. Skorpion and Sceptre are a spicy collaboration and also wicked individual artists in their own right, so go and check them out!

Last but not least on the compilation is all-round sound fanatic, Trench, featuring the mesmerising vocals of the talented Katja. Being a sound recordist and engineer, Trench has been crafting his sound over the years and we love what he is currently putting out. The track "Wanted" is a stripped-back number with funky drums and instrumental elements that add soul alongside the amazing vocals. The amount of groove on this one is 11/10 and we are really happy to close out the EP with this track.

With a bit of everything, Next Gen Vol. 2 hits all the vibes that we love, from deep and dark, to heavy and frenetic, to light and jazzy. Whether you are listening at home or loading up your USB for the club, there's something on here for you.

Welcome to Enme (ENEMY) to Heavy Sonics Records for HSR011 with his "Impossible EP".

Enme, AKA Luke, is a DJ/Producer hailing from South Wales. He is co-founder of Union Sounds & Unifi Soundsystem, a South Wales-based drum and bass and multi-genre events promoter, pushing the underground sound and building a community of ravers and celebrating soundsystem culture. 

Enme debuts on Heavy Sonics Records with three tracks of the highest of quality that do the damage on the dancefloor and beyond! 

Kicking off with the title track "Impossible", Enme sets the tone for the EP with a growling, bass-heavy anthem. On the drop, it’s clear that "Impossible" means business – a relentless, high-impact opener. As you might say, start as you mean to go on!

Next up is "Sonic Attack", a track that delivers exactly what it promises. The brief intro is just the calm before the storm, as it quickly erupts into a barrage of heavy bass and hard drums. This ambush of sound is a DJ’s secret weapon, built to ignite the dancefloor and keep the energy levels high. 

Rounding off the EP is "Versatile", a track that lives up to its name with a groovy, minimal, and techy vibe which sets itself apart from the other two tracks. The catchy vocal and rolling groove make it a standout, showcasing Enme’s production ability, and rounds off what is indeed a versatile EP with three tracks that are all different but all equally as sick. 

Enme has absolutely smashed the "Impossible EP", with each track bringing something unique to the table, for what is the eleventh release from Heavy Sonics and the third solo artist EP on the label.

Be sure to follow Enme and his production as it goes from strength to strength, across pretty much the whole 360 of drum and bass music.

Stay tuned for the next release, HSR012, as Heavy Sonics gears up to celebrate its first anniversary with something special. Until then, let the "Impossible EP" keep your sets fresh and the ravers moving.

The a-side, Crash Test, comes in hard with big drums, a groovy bassline, and a powerful and interesting hypnotic vibe. This one packs a punch, like getting hit in the face, with AN's usual dynamic, trademark futuristic bass sounds. This one goes hard, all the way to the second drop, which switches up the drum pattern and rolls through, all the way to the next track!

The b-side is a minimal number, with AN's signature twisted basslines. As the track name suggests, it goes deep and dark, with a haunting vocal just before the heavy drop. AN's versatility in making a stripped-back beat like this one so impactful highlights his superb technical production skills.

We're buzzing to keep having AN consistently release bangers with us, and long may it continue!
