Rollers, techstep & deep

Kommz - One Time (29.10.21)

Next up on Lifestyle we celebrate our past year of releases, and give a sneaky look into the future of the label; it’s the Lifestyle Annual 2018!

This Annual marks an important moment in the life of the label; for the past couple of months we've had our heads down, thinking about what's important to us here at HQ and how to revise our look a bit. This has resulted in a fresh approach to our brand and a more refined visual style moving forward into 2019, we are very excited about it and can't wait to show you what's in store!

We’ve knocked our heads together and picked out 16 choice cuts of prime Lifestyle material from the past year, tunes that have stood out to each of us as the finest our label had to offer in 2018. We tried to keep it reasonably varied, but didn’t do so well, so expect a heavy concentration of that deep dark tech inside, as well as a splattering of other distinct sounds. 

While we have got some of the Lifestyle ‘anthem’ tunes in there, we’ve also been careful to include some for the real heads, tunes that some might have missed first time round, that we reckon deserve excavating and rinsing out. 

As if this wasn’t enough, we’ve also thrown in 10 brand-new tracks, featuring some very close connections! A lot of these tracks are from new voices we’ve just started listening to in the scene, and to make it extra personal, four of the ten tracks come from the team here at the label! Mandie, Jamie, Jono & Mersen (+ Ken) dug in and came out with some tracks of their own for the release, including the first ever release for Combine with ‘Retrograde’, a super-vibey deep liquid banger. This exclusively personal touch is the cream on the cake of this release, which itself crowns what was the best year for our label yet. 

We hope you enjoy this release as much as we enjoyed putting it together. We’re deeply indebted to all the artists we’ve worked with over the past year and beyond, without them making the tunes, and you lot buying the tunes, this label would be nothing, so we’re forever grateful for all your support in 2018, and hope we do you proud this year. We’ve got some big plans in the pipeline that we can’t wait to let you all know about, so make sure to stay connected and informed! From all us here at the team a massive thank you & infinite bigups, here’s to another huge year.

JNB - Dystopian Funk

Back on that collab business, the boys in VC are once again skimming the delicious cream off the top of the dnb scene, and bringing you a tasty release of hard-hitting partnerships, featuring some new alliances, as well as some stellar remixes of previous tunes. 

The first two in the series saw some massive meetings of producer talents, with the lads teaming up with Wingz, Kyrist, Vowel, Philth, and many other big and emerging names in the scene. 

Vol. 3 is no different, be it the maxxed out neuro banger of 'Vobelord' with ABIS, or the slick, rolling sounds of 'Gully Tuckshop' with Primitive Instinct; the unique styles that emerge when two creative forces come together is undeniable. This release also sees them go head to head with the mighty Cruk on 'Bindipper', which as the name suggests is an absolute stinker! Philth returns again as a collaborator on 'Flags', a moody cut of deep, 4am tech. 

On remix duties, this release just gets silly. Kyrist puts her spin on the VC & Vowel track 'Dispersed', and takes it to a very dark, very nasty place. Creatures then steps in by reworking her collab 'Rolex' into a big, steppy slice of techy drum and bass. Two producers who continue to make a serious impact on the scene coming together, it was never gunna be anything less than absolutely ridiculous, and these tracks don't disappoint! 

This series continues to show the power of producers putting their brains & laptops together, as well as presenting a cross-section of the stupidly good talent overflowing from the scene at the minute! Not one to be missed for sure, this series is an essential arsenal of mental tunes for any dnb dj.

Katon – Receiver EP [IDR001] OUT NEXT FRIDAY

Roll in the new with the darkest, freshest beats as Identity Records brings you the next chapter from the underground. The Receiver EP by Katon has culled together four distinctive numbers that push the envelope of DnB through gravity defying subs, crackling undercurrents, and gunshot styled snares.

The title track, “Receiver,” opens up the release, bringing in squalls of bass growls backed by ominous tones. When the drop first hits, it sucks you into a black hole of vibration while the precisely crafted shuffle of the hat section sends shivers up the spine. Brough all together, this is one that grabs hold and makes you forget everything outside of it.

A surging bassline and a hard driving rhythm instantly establish “Espionage” as the powerhouse that it is. This song reveals the prowess of this producer in crafting so much with so little. With bass, drums, samples, and otherworldly atmospheres he crafts an infectious tune that outclasses any competition.  As a result, the simple dynamic shifts of the song construct a distinctive vibe you can’t find anywhere else.

“Croak” is a low-end stepper that feeds the mind while shaking the should. With a descending bassline and a steady groove, it’s impossible to resist dancing to this one. The subtle clicks and mutant sounding FX that dot the landscape further drive the mind into hyperspace, leaving you exhausted yet feverishly craving more. 
For the closing number, Katon delivers “Thief.” Molding an ingenious beat that blends seamlessly with the low end, as well as the ghostly orchestration, makes for a vibe heavy track which takes you by surprise. A craftily placed vocal sample brings the drop in, and it hits with all the force of an atomic bomb. Overall, this one showcases the exciting experimental potential this genre continues to bring to the world.
