Smooth - Kronos (feat. Markoman)

"I have conquered all and no one opposes me... except for one!"

Remix for Shy Guy Says. Moving from trappy dubbiness to breakneck DNB, this remix imagines an interstellar battle between gods of the universe. Includes a mashed in surprise - an iconic jungle track from the past.

Mayel & Insom - Shogun / Mystery Night (NOBUSS069)

1. Mayel - Shogun
2. Insom - Mystery Night

Mayel and Insom make their Nocid Business come back with another earth-shattering release comprised of two superb tracks that stand as a prime example of the unique sound each of these brilliant producers brings.

Mayel takes things up a notch on the A-side track entitled ‘Shogun’ with pulsing synths that rock with heavy hitting drums and glitched melodies that will leave you knotted. Don’t be fooled by the uplifting interlude because this one is a full trip that wont let you off that easily! With chaos right around the corner, it’s time to go all-out!

‘Mystery Night’ by Insom is one funky beat that boasts snarling bass and punchy hits fit for any dancefloor. Let this song be a guide through an adventure filled with intrigue and energy as the technical rhythms and clean composition lights the airways.

Posij - Misfits (Out Now)

Russian drum & bass producer Black Barrel has drawn from St. Petersburg’s dance music microcosm whilst still maintaining his individuality, which is obvious throughout his release forthcoming on newly created imprint Sofa Sound. After falling under DLR’s radar, who built the foundations for Sofa Sound in 2017, Black Barrel’s versatile sound design has caught the attention of many tastemakers throughout the genre’s underground market. And 2018 will see him capitalise on this surge of interest around his productions, having already geared up for a release on Ant TC1’s Dispatch Recordings.
Double sided single ‘Still Fucking Warm / Hyperion’ defines Black Barrel within his own standards, as well as signifies why he was picked up so quickly by many of the scene’s biggest players. Despite hailing from Russia, a country well known for pioneering the neurofunk world, Black Barrel has created his own identity which flares between every break. Expertly manufactured, both tracks highlight that despite maintaining the far reaching Russian benchmark for releases, he’s clearly created his own signature.

PRE ORDER NOW (via bandcamp) TO RECEIVE ANOTHER CHANCE by DLR 1 week early - - -Next up from Sofa Sound is the forthcoming collaborations from drum & bass heavyweights DLR, Break, Randall and Ulterior Motive, a collective who’ve all helped to pioneer the genre whilst staying inherently underground. Whilst Break and Randall have laid its foundations, producers like DLR and Ulterior Motive have shaped the more contemporary scene, although both tracks signify the colossal engineering standards of each featuring artist. The established names also bring their weight to Sofa Sound’s back catalogue, which has expanded since its creation by DLR in 2017. 

DLR, Break and Randall come together for lead track ‘Song & Dance’, an old-school reminiscent roller with snipped up, mc-lead vocal samples and jazzy instrumentals. The energy between all three artists is instantly recognisable, with Randall’s old-school approach shining through each layer. On top of strung guitar notes and a hook which nods to its namesake, ‘Song & Dance’ blends a mixture of styles to present a versatile addition to Sofa Sound.

Next comes ‘Modules’, featuring a combination of sonics recorded through Ulterior Motive’s modular set up. The ruminating drums and basses brought from the collections of their collaborators deliver its funkier elements, with the bassline fluctuating between notes and twisting its way through a melodic undertow. Alongside its unusual structure, the track’s organic approach and frequent switches grab its listener unaware. Another imperative release on Sofa Sound, the imprint has shown its commitment to artists from across the spectrum, through both its digital releases and physical discography additions.

Very little is known about this new face on campus. With just a few releases already under his belt on labels like Fokuz, Celsius and Delta9, Salvatore De Luca has actually been producing D&B for over a decade and as a result has a very mature and diverse output.

Based in Palermo, Sicily, he is a drummer and surgeon by trade. 

With a second EP already lined up for release on Commercial Suicide in a couple of months we here at Commercial Suicide can simply say we thoroughly enjoy his music and artistry and these 3 tracks are just the tip of the iceberg.

Since its first release, DLR’s Sofa Sound has firmly solidified itself, proving that they’re set to continue the growth of their spearheading roster. Whether it’s the artists who’ve previously collaborated with DLR on other, more-longstanding independents, or the producers who DLR has personally picked from the Sofa Sound demos box, there’s already been a high calibre of tracks unleashed on the imprint. And with their next digital single in the pipeline, their growth remains unstoppable, proving that their initial groundbreaking commitment is still being adhered to. 
Forthcoming from Sofa Sound is the brand new release from Dub Head; inherently underground, the Ukrainian based producer has already made his mark on imprints like Ant TC1’s Dispatch Recordings. ‘Meltdown’ and ‘Space Worm’ are technically brilliant and prove why Dub Head is such a coveted addition to the likes of Sofa Sound and Dispatch Recordings. The A-side ‘Meltdown’ is a heavily percussive roller, with clanking drums, tinkering hi-hats and floating note sequences which add to the lulling atmospherics of its introduction. But when the record finally breaks, cold pads and Dub Head’s signature funky bassline takes you to a much lower frequency. Minimalist yet throbbing with power, Dub Head shows that you don’t need to bow to commercial viability to make a resounding impact. 
On the reverse, you’re taken into ‘Space Worm’. Dub Head promises to continue his assault, providing another record which is effortless in its complexity whilst wrapping the listener around its thumping bassline. Hollowed snares and crackling instrumentals interfere with the composition like static, as the record slowly begins to unfold segment by segment. Its more distorted elements add a jutting layer, providing a siren like-feel on top of its heavy breakdown, providing another undeniably weighty release from Sofa Sound.

‘CTS’ and ‘Condensed’ mark the fourth release from Sofa Sound’s digital-only collection since its creation in 2017. Having already released on imprints such as Samurai Music, Horizons Music, Dispatch Recordings and Gradient Audio, Mateba’s step towards the imprint sees him being added to another inherently underground, yet groundbreaking label. Joining the likes of Break, Randall, Hydro, War, Script and DLR himself within Sofa Sound’s back catalogue, it makes sense that he’d come under their radar. Having been featured in their sets globally, with Sofa Sound’s help fans are about to put a face to the music. And that’s just one more factor into their success, which has only exploded since their first release.
