Kronology - Timelapse EP
PreOrder smarturl.it/TECH117
Release date: 29th March 2015

If you’ve been keeping your eye on the Los Angeles D&B scene, then you’ll know all about Slogun and iOh. Hailed as “Ones to Watch” by Kmag in 2013, their deep respect for junglist history and culture has fuelled a steady rise to prominence both as DJs and producers. Now, they’re ready to take the next step, and make their mark on the international scene
as part of the Technique roster.

So, after the warning shot of Razor Sharp on the 15 Years of Technique LP, it’s time to welcome the team now known as Kronology with their first full release.

You & Me kicks off proceedings in an unmistakeably US style. Evolving house keys establish the percussive heart of the track as classic synth tones add a touch of euphoria. Then a rising siren provides a call to action, delivered on by a funk-filled pizzicato bass and ultra-crisp drums. With this one, Kronology manage to balance an effortless, liquid vibe with rolling rhythms that aim straight at the dance floor.

On Submerge, Kronology team up with some fellow Los Angelians, the DJs, live performers and producers Divine Elements. The result is some highly grimy bass and mightily hard drums all topped off with some finely chopped samples. At its core, this track is all about that rhythmic motif in the low-end, an irresistible rave engine which this production supergroup constantly disassemble and re-engineer to keep this fresh from beginning to end.

Then Kronology recruit the singer-songwriter known as Without My Armor, to show a whole new facet to their work. Monster opens into a claustrophobic atmosphere, with dark pads vying for space with the vocals and creating a level of tension that begs for relief. And that relief comes as the bassline and counter-balancing mid-range bursts onto the scene. The contrast between the constricted metal influence that weaves through the track and the open, big-room sound gives this a vibe all of its own.

So Kronology have arrived, and they’ve got some flavours that you might not have heard before. While fully immersed in drum and bass music, they’ve brought their own influences of American EDM, house, punk and metal to work into the formula. Straight out of the San Fernando Valley, here’s something new for the D&B scene, encapsulated in their first release, the Timelapse EP.

Kritix All Of Me EP // Beatport Exclusive - 28/8/15

Kritix
All Of Me EP
A. All Of Me ft Jenny Jones
B. We Are Here
C. Into The Deep
D. Pogo


Label : Mayan Audio
Cat Num : [MYN006]
General Release Date : 11/9/15

Veterans of previous Mayan Audio releases, Essex-based duo Kritix are back with MYN006, the All Of Me EP.

The EP begins with the title track, featuring Jenny Jones. Piano meets synth, meets old skool beats in the intro, before Jones’ strident and emotional vocals kick in. The drums are added to, the bass starts to boom, and you know Kritix are on to a winner with All Of Me. Feel the flow, and feel the EP get off to quite a start. 

Next up is the deeper, darker We Are Here, which enters some new territory for Kritix. Almost industrial in its influence, this is a mighty slab of funk. Feel the space age vibes as Kritix create an entire universe through their music. The drums will attack, the bass will destroy, and We Are Here will be a statement of intent from the artists and producers. This one is just big. 
Into The Deep is another turn in the road, with flowing, liquid flavours the order of the day. Melodic vibes underpin the tune, with flashes of funk sitting over the top. More variation is on offer in the beats, which fluctuate and build in turn. Closer Pogo rips the fabric of the universe with some crazy, off-kilter effects and full-on bass madness. A radical and invigorating end to the EP.
At the same time as the release of this EP will be Mayan's 1st year anniversary from when the label launched in September 2014 and will also see them putting on their first event at Club 65 in Vauxhall, London. Showcasing their own exclusive talent, special guest artists on the night and including a live PA from Jenny Jones performing the title track from the EP 'All Of Me'. All set to make a great celebration our imprint! If you like your music in different colours and flavours, the All Of Me EP is for you.

The 2nd LP from Rene LaVice on the Ram Records imprint was one that cemented his reputation as one of the most musically distinct artists in his field. ‘Play With Fire’ presented a brand new twist in the Rene LaVice discography. Featuring a range of tracks that bridge the gap between genres, it’s been Rene’s most diverse output to date. And since the LP dropped on his extensive fan base, whilst snaring new audiences across the musical spectrum, he’s back with reworks on some of the LPs most outstanding titles. 

‘Wave’ rolls out first, infusing a more domineering indie-rock breakdown against Rene’s signature snare, it steps even further out of the drum & bass paradigm. Still lead by vocal crescendos weaving between the mix, it’s still instantly recognisable. 

Up next you’re presented with a brand new cut, one likely to grasp the attention of anyone who enjoys grimy beats and a brooding bassline. Snapping kick drums stand alongside quaking subs to take you deep into Rene’s darker sound bites. 

‘Wicked it Works’ is yet again another fresh record sure to ignite the anticipation for this release. With jungle breaks and a ragga sample pushing through its layers, the track is a welcome add on to his LPs 2016 successor. 

Lastly comes the retake on Rene’s ‘Lights Out’, drawing once again for the voice talents of David Boomah and contorted over a more old school uptake on the original. A rolling number that reverberates on impact, it still holds the same weight, but through an alternative construction of beats. 

So here’s to another milestone in Rene LaVice’s career – one that will resound for years to come and further indent him in the genre’s history books.

When one of Technique Recordings' new signings drops their first release, there's, understandably, a buzz of anticipation among DnB heads. After all, this is the label of Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Tantrum Desire, Document One, and L Plus, just to name a few. So, the duo formerly known as Glass Cobra, even more formerly known as Dubba Jonny & Russla, now going by the name No Concept, has a lot of heritage to live up to.

Of course, Technique's A&R skills are as sharp as ever. That's clear right from the intro of this EP's first track, “Nowhere to Hide”. As Arte's vocals rise and blaze over atmospheric chords and shifting patterns of arpeggio, we're drawn inexorably into No Concept's sonic world. And, trust, the title means what it says. There's no hiding from the vicious lash of those snares and thorax-shattering kicks and bass when this beast drops. Hazardous material.

But then there's another facet of the No Concept sound displayed in “Fingers”. As the shadowlands of the first few bars unfold before us, there's an unsettling uncertainty about where this track might be taking us. And that pitch-bending build delivers us somewhere just a bit different from the average. There's an stridently insistent riff that draws inspiration from jump-up, but with a serrated-edge low-end power that makes it something else entirely. This is going to earn wheel-ups wherever it's played.

“4 Dayz” is another twist to the tale. A minimally percussive intro, punctuated with dark tinges of vocal, sets the tone. Then there's the heart-stopping drama of that drop-out before the inevitable hammer-blow. This hearkens back to classic techstep, rolling breaks supported by a two-step pattern that punches huge holes through the frequency range. All that, with a high-energy warping and modulating bassline that is going to keep the dancefloor enthralled.

Closing out proceedings, we've got “Waste My Time”. With its ever-rising layers of percussive synths in the intro, those 4/4 claps, and floating vocal samples, this could almost be a reconfiguration of the hardcore formula. The drop is all about the catchiest of bassline hooks drives us onwards, with stabs and a sheen of reverberating atmospherics filling out the soundscape. All of this, supported by the neck-breaking drums that No Concept have already, even within this EP, made a staple of their sound.

So, welcome to No Concept. In this collection of four tracks they've laid out a benchmark. These guys have proven their ability to deliver forward-thinking DnB aimed squarely at the dancefloor. And you know there's going to be a lot more where that came from.

Tracklisting:

1.	No Concept – Nowhere to Hide (feat. Arte)
2.	No Concept – Fingers
3.	No Concept – 4 Dayz
4.	No Concept – Waste My Time
