Mark Kloud - Nothing Really Matters [Premiere]

In episode 4 I sit down with someone hugely inspiring in so many ways: Sweetpea!

A DJ, producer, radio presenter, interviewer, and an EQ50 sister.. Sweetpea experiences the drum and bass scene from many different sides. 

This conversation is full of things, that primarily, I think we all know, but we need to be reminded of - myself included. It's refreshing to hear some of the advice she has for up and comers and the way she's seen dnb evolve, the hope she has in the new generation and some of the things she misses from what she calls her 'golden era'.
 
We touch on important topics such as inclusivity and diversity, social media, mindset, battling quiet periods in your music career and the importance of being fulfilled in your life as a whole.

In the interview, I describe this as 'The chat I wanted to have, but didn't realise how much I needed'. I stand by this statement. 

Hope you enjoy and take away some really good things from this!

Inception Audio - Elizar Mel - Tribal Heart . EP

Elizar Mel - Tribal Heart
The intro is melancholic and dark tones create suspense before a burst of energetic drumming and a snarling bass. This song is an authentic dark roller because of its inventive components and unique percussion.

Elizar Mel - Far Centaurus
Your head will keep nodding as the eerie textures that open the track are soon joined by irregular rhythmic patterns. The music picks up the ante halfway through with the addition of even more ominous sound effects. This one, is one that sneaks up on you.

Elizar Mel - Heavy Radiation
You're drawn in by the unusual sounds and textures, and the constant drum beat keeps you interested all the way through. A melody that grasps hold and won't let go.

Elizar Mel - Digital Shrine
The listener is faced with negotiating a labyrinth of electrically charged pulses and arches as the previous track continues where it left off. The percussion programming is restrained and circumspect, yet it doesn't lack energy. Traces of those who have come before us but gave in to their own anxieties can be heard along the path.

The Atmospheric king Greekboy makes a welcome return to Omni with a new 5 track of immense beats. The EP starts with the amen-led 5th Generation System as frenetic beats square off deliciously with twinkles of atmosphericness. Geometrical takes the sounds even further into the realms of the deep as crisp drums and floating arpeggios create an otherworldly journey. Mythos keeps the crisp beats and adds serene layers of pads and drifting keys before the title track Planetopia changes the vibe with futuristic tech sounds complete with catchy acid hooks. The EP ends with the mesmerizing chilled vibes of Unexplored Area that is beautiful and tranquil way to end an explosive odyssey of sounds.

Ill Truth - Ocular [THZYR001]

After five years of planning, writing, and refining their sound, London-based production duo Kolectiv are set to release their long-awaited debut drum & bass album, Circadian Rhythms.

The project began in the aftermath of the pandemic, when the pair started setting aside tracks that captured the spirit of a night out at a drum & bass event. Their vision was clear: to create an album that reflects the variety, energy, and progression of a rave – from the first beats that pull you into the closing sounds that carry you home.

“Going out to drum & bass nights, you’d hear so many different flavours across six or seven hours. We wanted the album to follow that same arc – like a circadian rhythm, a natural flow of time, but in this case the cycle of a rave,” Kolectiv explain.

To achieve this, the duo placed a strong emphasis on originality and sound design. Most of the album was built from scratch using their own recorded samples, crafted through sessions with keys, drums, and guitars, and only dipping into external sources when absolutely necessary. Vocal collaborations from PAV4N, Hijak MC, Illmatika and Kerry Donnelly add unique flavour to the project, while carefully placed interludes tie the project together as a complete listening experience.

“This isn’t just a collection of tracks. We wanted it to be a journey – a cradle-to-grave kind of experience – with highs, lows, and moments to breathe.”

The title Circadian Rhythms captures that intention perfectly: an audio diary of a night spent immersed in drum & bass culture, told through Kolectiv’s trademark blend of technical precision and emotional depth.

The project also coincided with a complete studio overhaul, giving Kolectiv a fresh environment to finalize and mix down the record with a renewed sense of clarity and focus.

With Circadian Rhythms, Kolectiv deliver more than an album – they present a story, an atmosphere, and a tribute to the music and culture that shaped them.
