Homemade Weapons - Closure Mix (Dec 2024)

Experimental Halfitme artist, Heatwave, presents Rawatar - The Moon In Your Eyes. This release leads with intent, and is truly a cinematic and emotional concept piece, ranging from tribal and techno influenced sounds, to drumfunk at its finale. A tale told with the sounds of longing, and separation, with fond memories in hindsight, with all chapters drawing from a palette of diverse tempos and textures.

Written and produced by Boca Hunor-Lehel
Mastered by Bob Macc @ Subvert Central

A vault of deep pressure unlocked – The Hidden Files collects a set of heavyweight VIPs from The Untouchables, each a reimagined version of past dread-infused cuts. Typically crafted for — and reserved within — their own DJ sets, these alternate versions are now unearthed for wider transmission. 

Stripped back, rebuilt, and submerged in new layers of sub-weight, they explore a more introspective energy. Tension, restraint, and meditative pressure — the Brussels duo reveals hidden forms with signature finesse.

Akuratyde makes a bold and deeply personal statement with Inviting Chaos. The album explores the beautiful disorder of parenthood and the emotional complexities of intentionally inviting upheaval into your life. Marking his solo debut on Bop’s renowned Microfunk imprint, it reframes his signature sound into something brighter and more unpredictable.

There’s a sense of personal evolution woven throughout, from dancefloor-friendly rhythms to sparse microfunk beats, the album moves fluidly between styles, revealing a new facet of his sound. More than just a sonic shift, Inviting Chaos captures an emotional truth rarely expressed in electronic music: how deeply life changes when you willingly step into the unknown.

Out 19th September on limited edition cassette and digital.

Nuage emerges with a tantalising collection of 2-step tear-jerkers on his latest album 'Gradient' releasing via Microfunk Music on September 19th.

For over a decade, Nuage has built a reputation as one of electronic music’s most emotive voices, with celebrated releases on Project Mooncircle, Anjunadeep, 20/20 Vision, and Phonica Records, and regular radio support from BBC Radio 1. Following the vibrant Music of Branches (Absys, 2013), the lushly introspective Prints of You (Translation, 2014), and the genre-bending WILD (Project Mooncircle, 2017), Gradient marks a natural next step, refining his signature blend of moody synths, floating melodies, and broken 2-step rhythms into something intimate, ethereal, and timeless.

Each track on Gradient feels like a precious gem, balancing restraint and atmosphere with a subtle pull toward the dancefloor. UKG-inspired grooves set the foundation for much of the record, carrying Nuage’s trademark weightless touch. “Pausepoint” stands out as a highlight, where Nuage teams up with Microfunk Music label head Bop to push the tempo into drum & bass territory, providing a dynamic counterpoint to the album’s meditative flow. The surrounding tracks lean into hazy textures and shimmering percussion that unfold like half-remembered dreams.

Over the years, Nuage has become known for crafting electronic music that feels as personal as it is expansive, soundtracks for both solitary reflection and communal release. Gradient distills that duality, offering a record that is as much about listening as it is about movement, carried by a rare sensitivity to atmosphere and rhythm.

Nuage - Gradient - Album Teaser

The first release in the semblk series sets an uncompromising tone for this new imprint dedicated to darker, more introspective strains of 170 bpm music. Limited to just 30 lathe-cut black label plates, encased in full artwork handmade screen-printed sleeves, this series is clearly aimed at collectors and those who cherish the tactile, raw experience of vinyl.

Kicking things off is Hungarian producer St.Iff with The Repressed Urge, a four-track exploration of the shadowy edges of drum & bass, jungle, and halfstep. The A1 title track immediately plunges into murky depths with tense atmospherics and fractured percussion. On A2, St.Iff teams up with Manchester’s Artilect for “Percival,” pushing the momentum into a brooding jungle roller laced with ghostly pads and shuffling breaks. Flip to the B side and “Hollow Out” continues the descent, stripping things back with skeletal drums and cavernous low-end pressure that feels almost ritualistic. The closing track, “Urawa,” sees St.Iff joined by Focal Point for a bleak halfstep excursion, where sparse kicks echo through dense fogs of texture, amplifying the EP’s psychological pull.

Written & produced by St.Iff, Artilect & Focal Point

Hidden Element - Plastic Thoughts [BFA028]

Hidden Element is electronic act from Kyiv, Ukraine. By blending elements of breakbeat, techno and ambient, producer Igor Kirilenko creates forward-thinking music with shifty rhythms, cinematic samples and deep textures. Inspired by classic sci-fi movies, it’s a perfect soundtrack both for crowded ecstatic club nights and solitary mind-wandering.

Igor began releasing tracks as Hidden Element in 2011, firstly as a duo with Nil Tarasov, and now as a solo project. Over the years he released music on various labels including Med School, Pinecone Moonshine, Alphacut, Silent Season, YUKU. 

Project’s track “I See The Light” (feat. Kiyomi Yamashita) was noted by DJ Mag as “Track of the Month”. Track “Reload, Replay” was played by Steve Lamacq on BBC1Xtra. Debut LP “Together” released on Absys Records in 2016 received a number of positive reviews and warm feedback from El Hornet (Pendulum), Ulrich Schnauss and other producers. 

Hidden Element also created official remixes for a variety of artists, from British drum’n’bass legend London Elektricity to Ukrainian pop-singer and Eurovision winner Jamala.

In 2020–2021 Hidden Element manifested a new ambitious chapter with EP trilogy “Comparisons” / “Kontinuum” / “Cycles”. Packed with intense contemporary breakbeat and seasoned with high class remixes from Throwing Snow, Andre Bratten, Prayer, Cocktail Party Effect, these EPs earned praise from Mixmag Japan, Mixmag UK, Mixmag Brazil, BARKS, Qetic, Inverted Audio etc. A bunch of tracks from the trilogy was also aired on BBC Radio 1 in numerous guest mixes.
