Introducing some fresh talent to the CIA catalogue, we welcome Kublai for his first release on the label – the eclectic ‘Free Flow EP’. 
True to his city, the Manchester based producer draw inspirations from a diverse palette and his EP is a testament to this, showcasing his sound via four tracks representing four different styes. 
After pushing things forward during lockdown with releases on Goldfat and Vandal (alongside fellow CIA artist Minor Forms), the ‘Free Flow EP’ marks the next development for Kublai; which, with the guidance and encouragement of Total Science, has led him to explore new avenues in DnB. 
“Initially I didn't plan this as an EP, but after writing a lot of liquid, I wanted to try my hand at some heavier sounds... I've just always wanted to make music that I love to hear, that's got soul; whether it be the heavier side of things or the more liquid side of things.” 
Setting things off is ‘Free Flow’ as Kublai experiments with different types of percussion, atop of uplifting pads and vocals. A driving bassline carries throughout, leading neatly into ‘Emerald Funk’, where some tech funk influences come into play on a darker stepper that’s seeping with groove. 
Switching the vibe again, even to his own surprise, ‘Revelation’ sees Kublai impressively exploring on a jungle tip for the first time, with rolling breaks, vocal cuts and switching bass, before completing the EP with the piano strewn, sultry sounds of ‘Young Soul’ – a full circle back to his soulful roots.

After the release of ‘Right Here’ in Summer 22, Fava returns with his debut LP “Lifetracks”. With plenty of releases and memorable performances under his belt, Fava is taking the next step with this 16 track album.

Fava is a true SUNANDBASS veteran and family member; always one to bring positive energy and raw entertainment to his sets.

Each of the 16 tracks on "Lifetracks" tells its own story, inspired by Fava's life, the pandemic, politics, nature, and the daily emotional rollercoaster that is life. The album features collaborations with top DJs and producers, offering a musical snapshot of significant moments, places, and relationships that have shaped Fava's journey.

2. FAVA - FLY feat. Keeno

The Freiburg (Germany) based MC Fava presents the 'Mr Junglist Man' EP on V Recordings.

Fava is a talented and open minded vocalist with over 10 years experience, including highly respected residencies at Fabric and Sun & Bass plus collaborations with producers such as L-Side, Klute, Seba, B-Complex & Nymfo. Fava is rapidly becoming one of the go-to artists for quality vocal delivery, and this body of work demonstrates it perfectly.

For the 'Mr Junglist Man' EP Fava has called on some of Planet V’s most respected artists for production, including Command Strange, L-Side, Alibi and Acuna. His versatility is flexed as he moves effortlessly from the Liquid vibes of ‘Choices’ with Command Strange, through to his more club oriented tracks with L-Side and Acuna. The EP also features MC Fats who delivers a killer verse on the title track with Alibi.

On the ultimate and final instalment of Bop’s ‘Untitled Patterns’ series, ‘Patterns I Have Known And Loved’, the master of moody and marvellous sonics takes an extraordinary voyage into the outskirts of electronic music and beyond, with this special edition release for Record Store Day 2019.

Available as a stunning 50/50 black and white split 12” vinyl, this rare cut is a testament to Med School and Bop, and their dedication to the exploration of drum & bass realms and beyond - a true collector's item.

Comprised of three brand new patterns and an equal number of personal favourites from the series, the Russian musical mastermind takes one last descend down the untitled path as his year-long journey reaches its finale.

New ‘Untitled Patterns’ 66, 68 and 69 see a more playful trip through the glitch inspired micro funk canvas, showcasing a variety of stripped back grooves crossing over to the realms of ambient, dub, footwork and techno.
