"Following the appalling criminal invasion of Ukraine by Putin’s forces, London based record label and events collective Natural Selection take a firm stand and show their solidarity with Ukraine with this colossal 33-track V/A fundraiser compilation, by which 100% of proceeds will be donated to Ukrainian charity foundation Come Back Alive. Natural Selection have brought together some of the most respected names in electronic music, including some closely connected artists within the Natural Selection family and also a hand-picked selection of Ukrainian artists including Alex Schultz, Cluster Lizard, Zavoloka, Kotra and Religia. Other artists include the likes of The Advent, Rommek, Slave to Society (AnD), Charlton, Somatic Responses, Operator, Sterac, Annie Hall, Umwelt, HIRT (Hiroaki Iizuka & Ryuji Takeuchi), Linear System, Cressida, dynArec, Assembler Code, Fleck ESC & more. Great efforts have been made from everyone involved to come together and contribute to this release at such short notice, showing incredible commitment and dedication to support this urgent and vital cause. 

With this release Natural Selection have meticulously curated a daring fusion of artists and genres, bridging the heavier spectrum of Techno, Electro, Acid, IDM, etc. with new, experimental style and form. Expect the most cutting-edge, hard-hitting, underground electronics throughout its entirity and extreme diversity in sound. Natural Selection's 'no boundary' ethos remains uncompromised with this release."

Out now: mechatronica.bandcamp.com/album/the-wash

EP playlist: soundcloud.com/mechatronicamusic/sets/out-now-ctrls-the-wash

@ctrls plunges head first into a fragmented future of gleaming metallic sound design, crystal clear bass pressure, unreal sonic detail and high-speed sensory hypnotism, soaked in quantum mechanical ambience.

With little resemblance to what’s come before, the Danish producer fiercely mutates forward-thinking electro with machinist bass music into a cold-blooded and carefully programmed record, for the mind and for the floor.

Laenz - After Sunset [WZY004]
Announced: 13th Mar 2024
Release Date: 29th Mar 2024
Preorder: https://woozydublin.bandcamp.com/album/wzy004-after-sunset

Laenz joins EMA’s beloved Woozy family with After Sunset; an extended player of haunted dub architecture, set out within a found-sound planetarium of deconstructed rhythms and textural deviancy. Seminal UK producer and Hemlock Recordings’ founder Untold also features with his first remix in 9 years. 

Brooklyn-based Laenz reimagines the expansive structures of her native city as aural scaffolding, reconstructing indeterminate spaces via an emotional rendering process of world building. It’s music that explores the duality of shape and unform, immersed in traditions of sound design and latter-day UK broken beat techno binded by a tender hauntology that’s sublimely immersive as it is intimately personal. After Sunset is her debut for EMA’s boundary-pushing Woozy imprint, following releases for Early Reflex, Rhizome and Eastern Margins, a project detailing elongated processes of varying intensities evoking a rawness which she described as a “war on the heart”. It’s a body of music that’s a direct portal into Laenz’ singular vision, and highlights her inimitable talent amongst the milieu of bass-leaning producers of New York and beyond. 

Ballad Before The Break intros us with a garbled chug of out-of-body proportions, before Choices marches in with an uncanny half time of tense textures and After Sunset follows with trip-hop adjacent psychedelia gorged in subs. B-side opens with Echoes Until, a lurching wormhole of disorientating skank while wiL offers a gorgeous ambient epic circled by a percussion-heavy concrète of breakcore abstraction. Untold sees us out with a remix of Choices, a trip into his unrivalled sound world, buoyant by throbbing modulation and rolling kicks of pure surreality.

Skulder & Mully - Fortune [Premiere]

This is the second album sampler taken from the forthcoming 'Circadian Rhythms' LP by Kolectiv, offering a glimpse of the full 18-track journey.

Conceived as more than just a collection of tunes, the record unfolds like a night at a Drum & Bass rave. It begins with the first bassline pulling you in, builds into full peak-time intensity, and closes with reflective sounds that carry you home.

Written in the wake of the pandemic, 'Circadian Rhythms' stands as both a rebirth and a tribute to the culture that shaped Kolectiv. Much of the project was created from scratch, with the duo recording live drums, keys, and guitars, then weaving them together with original sound design. Carefully selected vocal collaborations bring depth and emotion, while atmospheric interludes give the album a cinematic flow from start to finish.

Mixed down in their newly upgraded studio, the LP balances technical precision with heartfelt expression. It is a journey, a statement, and a love letter to Drum & Bass in all its shades. The full project also features standout vocal work from PAV4N, Hijak MC, Illmatika, and Kerry Donnelly.
