zonedout - DIGITAL CORE (prod. phntmzn bR)


In this album, I wanted to relinquish control and work very intuitively. I've noticed that making quick decisions is healthy for my mind. Making quick decisions means finishing faster and moving on. It's like a photo, a snapshot. That's why I often accepted “mistakes” and hardly intervened during mixing so that my basic intention wouldn't be standardized (even if it might sound better).
The album is inspired by my earlier noise layer work, by the friction between pleasant and unpleasant, by my two bands Kadna and Golfjugo, and by the material I had available. The starting point for each song was the MS-20, with guitars making up most of the rest. I was forced to work with different material than usual because a lot of essential material is not with me at the moment. I learned a lot and acquired additional vocabulary<33

As part of their double-decade celebrations, we're are proud to launch an exhilarating new chapter in their history. Program is that chapter, a brand new record label that promises the very best in forward-thinking drum & bass from the most exciting producers from around the world. With a plethora of incredible releases already lined up, Program is guaranteed to offer you a taste of something different, with every bit of quality control you would expect. 

With forthcoming releases from some of the hottest producers around, both brand new and already established, Program’s line up for the latter half of 2012 looks impressive. Dropping on the label soon will be straight D&B heat from Chroma, Frankee, Kove, LoKo, Meth, Paul B, Wickaman, RV, Hoodlum and plenty more. Undoubtedly the new drum & bass label to keep your eyes and ears on this year.

Debut Release - Frankee - Firethorn / Pandorum

What better way to launch a fresh faced label than with a fresh faced artist? Frankee’s first collaborative release came last year, a track produced alongside Basher and released on Ram Records. ‘Nevada’ was a standout on Basher’s ‘Transmission’ album, and now Frankee is ready to unleash his exciting solo debut.

‘Firethorn’ leads the way with a haunting intro that gradually builds and grows, demanding your attention as it progresses. As the twinkling melodies and echoed percussive elements fade away the tension is broken with a huge bassline and rolling breakbeats that pummel you from head to toe. This is undoubtedly a debut worthy of the very best, a debut that will have heads turning and bodies dancing whenever it’s dropped.

Flip over and ‘Pandorum’ takes you to an altogether deeper and darker place. A staple of label boss Andy C’s DJ sets for some time now, this track is packed with visceral energy that threatens to rip you apart with its incredible bass. With a nod to the sci-fi era of D&B, this track is as much about rinsing the dance floor as it is about creating an atmosphere.

If you caught one of Technique International Sound's scorching festival appearances this summer, anticipation for this release will already be off the charts. Now, fresh from tearing events like Rampage and Audioriver to pieces, the elite production force of Drumsound & Bassline Smith and Tantrum Desire are back with some brand new fire. 

From the darkside drama of the opening pads, stretched and deformed over twisted squelches of bass and ominous metronomic percussion hits, it's clear that 'The Creator' is a monstrous tune. When huge layers of orchestral instrumentation build the epicness even further and we're drawn inexorably towards a drop that you just know is going to have ravers demanding the wheel-up.

Given who these producers are, we should all know to brace ourselves for an explosion of bass. Seriously, though, there's no acceptable level of readiness for the intense, staccato strikes of bassline that drive this tune. That raw low-end energy, punctuated with temperature-raising flecks of modulation, all held in check by the expertly-crafted rolling drums is going to see this tune dropped, doubled, and spun back in dances everywhere.

Drumsound & Bassline Smith and Tantrum Desire's last collaboration, 2018's 'The Bomb', is still lighting up raves and airwaves in the sets of A-list deejays, demonstrating a longevity that's rarely seen nowadays. 'The Creator' might be the first release under the Technique International Sound name, but the legend, the history, the pedigree is well-established. Now it's time for a new chapter.
