Welcoming two new names to Viper, Synth System & AL/SO join forces for “City Lights” and “Extra”. Synth System, formerly known as High Maintenance, has been an integral part of the drum & bass scene for countless years, recently launching Synth System & straight away being enlisted for an official remix of Sub Focus’ ‘Last Jungle’. AL/SO, a newer name to the scene, works for Dutch label Korsakov Music.

The first of two singles, ‘City Lights’ also features a third collaborator, Eidna, a vocalist and songwriter who has been steadily on the rise in recent times. ‘City Lights’ is an eclectic, busy number with catchy vocals soaring over classic dancefloor sounds. Upbeat and energetic, the track is a perfect example of what to expect from the collaborative effort of Synth System and AL/SO.

The flipside of the release is ‘Extra’, a fun, space-y dancefloor number that is as fast-paced as it is full of adrenaline. Loud and in your face, the drop is the embodiment of end of the night rave energy, lasers flashing in time with the frenzied beat.

A label proud to be consistently releasing new music from new names, Futurebound certainly knows how to spot hidden talent, one of the key factors behind Viper’s success over the years. Be sure to keep an eye out for more hidden gems from the label before the end of 2021!

Finally, after such positive reception to singles “We Will”, “Left Unsaid”, and “The Impact”, V O E are gearing up to release the full “Left Unsaid” EP with three previously unheard tracks that will knock your socks off. A duo who are truly moving from strength to strength and who have just wrapped up their European debut tour, V O E are an unstoppable force in the world of drum & bass. Offering both a unique recorded sound and live performance, the potential of V O E knows no bounds, so it was only right they found a home on Viper – and what a journey it’s been!

New tracks like “More Than This” and “Sanity” show off Caroline’s vocal prowess, while “Our Own Way” features Tom on vocals, another in a slew of examples of the multitude of talents wrapped up within the V O E moniker.

At the core of Viper Recordings has always been supporting up-and-coming talent and giving them the tools they need to break out. With a keen ear for discovering the next big thing, the label boss’ ‘Futurebounds’ latest passion project has come in the form of “Future Fire”, a compilation dedicated to shining a spotlight on fresh producers. Following a successful first installation, Future Fire returns with Volume 2, showcasing four brand new tracks from the future stars of drum & bass.

Jon Void, who has already earned support from Liquicity, delivers a chilling vocal number to the compilation. The aptly named “Haunting” is a slow burner, gently building an atmosphere that will send shivers down spines with eerie elegance in every note. A masterclass in dark liquid drum & bass, it’s no surprise Jon Void has pricked the ears of Futurebound with this one, which was also featured on Viper Radio Episode 027.

Austrian duo Clank & Maider come in hot with “Walk This Earth”, an ominous number that packs a punch. Equal parts suspenseful and euphoric, Clank & Maider show they’re not messing about with their Viper debut. A catchy build-up with a sing-a-long melody, “Walk This Earth” is sure to put these two on the map.

US DnB producer Quoone teams up with Belgium musician Sensus for a border pushing banger, “Third Eye”. Representing DnB in all corners of the globe in true Viper fashion, “Third Eye” is an absolute weapon of a tune, bringing cutting basslines that are sure to get crowds moving both sides of the Atlantic.

Manchester based Locoda teams up with Katie Belle for “Green Light” and it is the classic Viper sound. A dancefloor record that at times veers on the edge of pop music with a foreboding twist, Locoda shows off his production techniques with this catchy number.

Winter is coming as Icicle returns to the fore with his sophomore album, ‘Entropy’, released November 17th through Shogun Audio. Delivering his most developed and ferocious music to date, Icicle unleashes a tirade of bass weight, ready to blow the eyes and ears of the electronic music world into next year. Leaning from grime infested urban electronica through to emotionally charged trip hop and full on trademark sci-fi drum & bass, the resulting ‘Entropy’ is one of the most prime and compelling examples of hybrid dance music yet seen in 2014.

“My first album 'Under The Ice', was an attempt to showcase my influences and where I came from musically, it was in a sense retrospective. This new album is more of a look into what I think the future of this sound could be. The term ‘Entropy’ means a ‘state of disorder’ or 'measure of chaos' which I felt was a great metaphor for how my production style has evolved, diversified and developed over the years.

While the cinematic interludes lay out a path of ever increasing entropy, I've drawn in vocals from some of my favourite MC’s, Skittles, SP:MC and Foreign Beggars’ Metropolis alongside the very talented Sarah Hezen to join the dots between the energetic and the more musical moments. ‘Entropy' is a statement as to my personal progress in musicality and technique, and I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I’ve enjoyed making it.” Icicle

Individually and as part of a duo, Matrix & Futurebound have decades worth of experience in shaping the drum & bass landscape. Brendan Collins and Jamie Quinn possess one of the most impressive track records in the genre's history, boasting one hundred million combined streams, one critically acclaimed album 'Universal Truth' and multiple consecutive Top 40 UK records. Their expert song writing can be seen through cuts such as 'All I Know', 'Magnetic Eyes' alongside Baby Blue, 'Don't Look Back' ft. Tanya Lacey and the legendary silver certified 'Control' with Max Marshall, which reached number seven on the UK's Top 40 singles chart whilst representing their fourth consecutive track to be playlisted on BBC Radio 1. Matrix & Futurebound are set to capitalise on this success for 2019- their forthcoming second studio LP 'Mystery Machine' is a testament to the legacy which they've built throughout their career, as they've become one of the most influential figures for a colossal dance music export. 
2005 was the year which led to the collaborative project between Matrix & Futurebound; 'Strength to Strength' was a pivotal moment for both artists, who were already prolific through their individual pseudonyms and it's a relationship which soon developed with exciting results. Their debut album 'Universal Truth' in 2007, jointly released on Matrix's Metro Recordings and Futurebound's Viper Recordings, signified the beginning of their joint alias. With Futurebound already having a powerful stake in the Liverpudlian bass scene and with London-based Matrix becoming a staple in DJ sets across the city's major club spaces, they had laid the foundations to launch a critical production team. 
Since then, the pair have gone on to cross over the divide between the underground world of drum & bass and mainstream commercial achievements, with their music translating to both intimate clubs spaces and global festival audiences. 2018 saw the first steps towards 'Mystery Machine', with title track 'Mystery Machine', 'Tardis', 'Live Another Day' and 'Believe' signalling the dancefloor viability of their next historic addition to an already impressive back catalogue. Having debuted many of its ground-breaking new records on stages at EDC, UKF Buenos Aires, Reading & Leeds, Glastonbury, Creamfields, Exit Festival, Let it Roll and due to showcase their album at the first of their 'Matrix & Futurebound Presents' nights at XOYO, they helped define the year's taste making tracks. 
But it's not just their standalone tracks which have caught the ears of fans and trend setters alike; as two of the biggest drum & bass figures, they've also remixed the likes of Emeli Sande, Pendulum, Eric Prydz, Jess Glynne, Demi Lovato, Labrinth, Birdy, Tinie Tempah plus many more names of the same stature. Their Emeli Sande rework was one of the vocal drum & bass anthems of the year gaining huge support from daytime Radio 1, making its way into the A list and with extensive specialist play from Annie Mac. This culminated in a highly successful Live Lounge appearance where the duo performed 'Breathing Underwater' with Emeli at Maida Vale, with their remix closing the London NYE fireworks.
Their next single 'Got You There', penned by esteemed songwriter Becky Hill and featuring alt-pop newcomer Zelah on vocals, begins the New Year with a slab of stunning musicality. Released through Viper / Metro Recordings, the emotionally charged anthem received three consecutive weeks of Radio 1 support on Mistajam's Dance Anthems slot, as well as being featured on the Spotify UK and US New Music Friday playlist. It was a hugely successful offering from Matrix & Futurebound and it's another chapter which brings listeners closer to the reveal of 'Mystery Machine'.
