DKL002: 82 Queens - City Heights EP

This month’s release is our first EP, coming from Bristol based multi-instrumentalist and producer @82queens!

Taking an unconventional approach to the genre he fuses drum & bass with lofi indie pop, featuring upbeat 174bpm rhythms alongside his own acoustic guitar, ambient synth chords and reverb heavy, melancholic vocals from a range of local artists.

If Mac Demarco spent a weekend at Boomtown he’d probably come up with something along the lines of this x

82 Queens - See The Beauty (feat. Violette)

A Digital Right To The Soul

HOO12 02. THUGWIDOW & Bruised Skies - A Digital Right To The Soul

Once again on the Roska Kicks & Snares imprint, we are back in business to unveil a very exciting new EP drop from a returning face we are thrilled to see. Following on from the previous launch of his ‘A49 / Rudey’ EP, we are truly excited to welcome back the sounds of SPD, who has been on an absolutely killer run, spreading a fusion of UK funky and bass music around the land alongside a number of different label projects such as Eatmybeat & Durkle Disco, with some seriously high levels of impact.   

This new project is made up of three absolute scorchers, again treading the thin line between UK bass and funky, combining different electronic elements and rhythmic themes to generate something completely new. We open up with the title track ‘Caught Napping’, an almost techno inspired sweep through vibrant syncopated drum lines and eerie woodwind overlays, all of course wrapped up in a sumptuous piece of bassline production.

Next, a track that leans slightly more towards the UK funky end of the spectrum as the busy drum work and more minimal backdrops of ‘Drum Squad’ are unleashed, causing a highly energetic output to occur, linking together nicely with scattergun sub punches, unpredictable LFO thuds and unorthodox woodwind toots. Finally, a much more UKG-centric sound as ‘Hepcat’ delivers broken-beat drum rhythms, lofi synthetic processing and super catchy vocal designs, all culminating in a euphoria-inducing breakdown that will have lighters in the air across many a dance this winter.

The whole feel of this project is extremely refreshing, with a clear and concise set of different influences all playing their part in pushing SPD’s sound forward into previously unexplored realms of underground dance music.

PREMIERE: SPD - Caught Nappin' [Roska Kicks & Snares]

After amazing releases on Withhold, Beyond Electronix and his own Braindance label FTL brings 4 amazing tracks to 3AM Eternal.
Deep, meditative vibes mixed with ruff and energetic breaks. 
Beautiful, melodic, atmospheric, synth heavy but still 100% dancefloor material. 

Juno review: 
Deep, meditative and synth-heavy new jungle choices from FTL. The likes of 'Meditation I' and 'Legacy' operate in the more classic jungle mode, remaining reliant on straight-up breakwork and less syncope. The real intrigues for us, however, are 'Technocrats' and 'Legacy', which are far more stuttery and go further in on the rhythmic layering, producing a set of unique, cyberpunkish aural hallucinations. It's an impressive addition to 3am Eternal, who are adepts at really fleshing out an older-school jungle sound.

You know when you hear a track and immediately love it? This one here is one of those 💜

Our good friend @hexset has crafted something super beautiful. A sci-fi inspired, deep, melodic 2-stepper that carries a mystical feel from start to finish.

This one is a perfect set opener or transition tune into the techy side of things. The DELICATE, spacey harps paired up with the intergalactic synth that bounces around - perfect stuff 

Hexxem is a name to follow and watch out for. Born and raised in Dublin, now living in Berlin, yer man’s musical knowledge goes DEEP and the rate his production is elevating is mad impressive. Like a lot of us, he grew up shaped by Channel U and MTV Base, favouring grime and garage. The U.K. flavour and raw energy those channels pushed at the time really seeps through into his productions. We can’t wait to hear more 💥

Sometimes all you need is a different perspective. 

Osprey's first solo release on our imprint is Perspectives, a grimy & glittery track with some hefty weight behind it. This is another one of those examples where we've held a track for an egregiously long time.

You'll have seen Osprey's name around, from Delta9 to ALL172THINGS and Hyperactivity, alongside running his first Osprey Invites event earlier this year... you're bound to see more of him in the future. 

It's been a pleasure working with him (patience of a saint, I tell ya), and we can't wait to share this belter of a track with you all.
