What tastes better than the first gin & tonic? The second one. So we’ve once again scoured the drum & bass scene for more brand new talent to soothe your ears and entice your palate. The assembled team of exciting young talents promise to further the success of our first batch, as we continue to distill the potency of our ’Tonics’ series. 

First up are the bouncing, buoyant sounds of UK based producer Soul Method’s aptly titled ‘Throwing Shapes’ providing a welcome, high-energy introduction to the sonic selection displayed on the EP. Groovy pads and pleasing arpeggios ride a seriously satisfying drum break and woodblock. Superbly simple vocals and measured bass work will have you giving it all and shuffling with glee on the dancefloor now that clubs are finally back open. 

Newcomer Half-Life smashes it out of the park with his debut release ‘Split’ which is a little on the grittier side than its predecessor. Creepy layered pads and foreboding harmony gel atop brisk drums, resulting in a stomach lurching drop. Wobbly bass tones, grainy digital synths and a growing drone really push the momentum throughout the tune and positions Half-Life as another young name to watch over the next year. 

Bath resident Aydn takes the floor with his bubbly, uplifting debut ‘No Option’. Trickling notes from a spacey synth and vocal chops swim in reverb, backed by a rolling beat and a deceptive crescendo which boasts rousing string plucks and grumbling swathes of bass. The 2nd drop ushers in a beefy amen break and deep, swelling bass notes which splice perfectly with the existing elements. . 

Devon boy Beeson pollinates our ears with the nectar that is ‘Brown Sugar’. For a track that starts relatively calmly, it doesn’t waste any time shifting into a stuttering, hypnotic shoe thrower. The interplay between the intense acidic arpeggio, the guttural tones of low-end and the swelling strings are very easy on the ear - a pleasing first outing that is reminiscent of the old-school raves that we have been desperate to re-capture. 

Bristol bombshells Circumference continue to prove why they’re one of the most exciting duos to come out of the city in the last 24 months. Building on the accomplished and varied sound displayed on their ‘Ambivalence’ EP on Flexout last year, the orchestral enthusiasts continue to merge mind-melting synth work with unorthodox harmonic approaches and production quality beyond their years. With drums tighter than a billionaire's wallet and compositional chops that continue to turn heads - we welcome the return of this bright young pair who you’re guaranteed to see more of. 

Rising South African star Stay-C shows off her developing style with her Soulvent debut ‘Make It Complex’ which rounds out the EP and undeniably lives it up to its name. Dark, unsettling atmos and haunting synths culminate in a gnarled, growling and gritty soundscape complete with hard-hitting drums which switches up just as fast as your ear can process it. 

Come and quench your thirst for a second time, with another batch of delightfully delectable libations, available from all good stores on the 17th September.

XOLYX - Fascination (Original Mix) [OLR019]

When old and new come together, it often yields both special and spectacular results. And next up on CIA, we’re very glad to welcome back veteran Irish producer Zero T, alongside the young yet mature Cheddar new blood, Myth. Now, we’re not calling Zero T old, but he does have no hair. Not that those in glass houses should throw stones, right! But anyway, Myth is obviously the new in this combination, and he does have a rather full head of hair. Make of it what you will. 
The important thing hair though, is that these two excellent and prolific 
producers come together for another pair of tracks and the beautiful man 
magic they conjure up together certainly continues to flow. 
Both producers’ flair is evident in the music, ‘Read My Mind’ a soulful yet 
tough bouncy roller,  ‘The Artikal’ bringing that bass weight we would of course expect. It’s essentially the perfect CIA 12’ and so we’re looking forward to get this one out to you all very soon. Enjoy!

Command Strange returns to V Recordings with a stellar 4 track EP, with a little help from his friends Alibi, Cnof, MC Fats & L-Side.

With three big colabs already under their belt (Skyline, Ahead of Me & Stardust) teaming up with Brazilian duo Alibi again was always on the cards, and they don’t disappoint taking the EP’s title track with techy roller ‘Welcome To The Future’. Cnof, another repeat collaborator joins the party for the liquid workout, ‘Blossom’, while Alexey goes solo on dancefloor banger ‘Krusty Fingers’. That leaves L-Side’s huge rework of MC Fats 2013 cut ‘Brand New Style’ to round off the EP.

Hailing from Kazakhstan, and now a seasoned producer signed to Bryan Gee's V Recordings imprint Alexey has been making waves in the Drum & Bass scene since 2010. Releases on Hospital and Med School, Fokuz, Metalheadz, Grid, and an album on DJ Marky's Innerground imprint have proven his versatility, with the Command Strange sound evolving to encompass harder, nastier styles alongside his pristine musicality.

This EP touches on all corners of that sound, taking the rough with the smooth and delivering a timeless selection of Drum & Bass flavours.

Brain & Serpnt - The Source (Instrumental) [Premiere]

SQBASS returns to the yellow label with his ep Scales that takes us further through the drum n bass spectrum that influences the production journey.

Scales is the dancefloor-driven side from the music and influences: crisp drums, evolving textures, and rolling basslines come together in a forward-moving blend of groove and atmosphere. 

It's spacious and refined, yet clearly designed with club energy in mind.
