AKOV - Wartalk (Out Now!)

OUT NOW: http://www.criticalmusic.com/release/enei-rituals-lp/

Russia's premiere drum & bass export Enei returns to close out 2015 with his eagerly awaited sophomore album, ‘Rituals’. Following up on his 2012 debut long player ‘Machines’, Enei shows off a defiantly more mature sound palette drawing influence from across the drum & bass spectrum from his trademark tech nasties through to the deep subliminals from an array of collaborators. With 15 new tracks on offer ‘Rituals’ is another triumph for an artist moving ever onwards, marking the start of Enei’s new chapter.

A fresh relic was unearthed in the distant East and the retreating ice sheets of Siberia - the ancient bones of a forgotten race, once again touched by sunlight and air, stirring the caged memories within. Tendrils of this prehistoric demon’s soul wrapped themselves around those who made the discovery – entrancing, captivating and compelling them with its dark story from the deep past. It is a tale that runs eternal, an account of the deepest savagery of nature - a conflict that has spilled across every conscious being and drives the endless cycle of life.
 
EATBRAIN channel a tale of a forgotten age through the unique minds of SEGMENT & CONCEPT VISION and their MAMMOTH EP. Featuring 4 precisely engineered cuts of audio that reach into the fraught and fractured core of existence and tear deep grooves into those who listen. VINTAGE opens the EP with luscious dub-driven pads and undulating tones that drop into a shifty and tight neurofunk banger, punctuated by pitched vocal stabs. RADIANT tears up the dance with a strobing and sweeping bassline, backed with a beautiful yearning melody and soft arpeggios. The title track of the EP MAMMOTH takes careful aim before striking a series of brutally syncopated blows, before HEIST takes down the rave in a flood of sirens leading to a stepper with an eminently catchy hook and deep, driving vibe.

Further building our Belgian brotherhood, the next instalment on Dispatch LTD sees a debut from  Murdock on the label, alongside Doctrine & MC Mota. With a multitude of accolades, including performances at Europe’s biggest events and an increasingly vast back catalogue, we are pleased to welcome the guys to Dispatch; keeping the beats moody, but the energy levels high. 

Two tracks explore the depth in Murdock’s sound, collaborating with Doctrine for a more dubbed out, stepping vibe on ‘Planet Rock Riddim’, before bringing in MC Mota for some dancefloor poised fire, with their track ‘Rhythm’. Hitting hard from two sides of the coin, Murdock is bringing the weight on this one; further proof of the superb talents brewing in Belgium right now.

Wastemen EP

Phace & Mefjus - Swerve [NEOSIGNAL] - out now!

Mapping out their interpretation of 170 BPM music today, Gerra & Stone are proud to present their debut album ‘Polarism’ on Dispatch Recordings this September.

Harnessing wide ranging influences and often contrasting moods into the drum & bass tempo, ‘Polarism’ is Gerra & Stone pouring their passions into a project to bring honest, emotionally charged music from the soul, balanced by swathes of darkness and groove guided havoc.

Elements of their full spectrum come to fruition throughout the album in tracks such as ‘The Fourth State’, whilst shifting focuses onto more sultry, idyllic styles in ‘In Disguise’, right across to the gritty, dancefloor primed pressure of ‘Blank’.

Enhancing the vibe of their journey, Gerra & Stone favour vocal features over collaborations, inviting close friend Visionobi, the divine Peta Oneir and introducing Jordan Jr. for the superb ‘On The Outside’, a track which also sees musician Stephen Mcleery returning on the piano.

Sharing their own adept approach to the genre with a milestone release, Gerra & Stone bring opposing forces into natural unison with a superbly polished debut album.

5.The Last Tone (Raise VIP)

Fresh from the Forbidden Society Recordings stage takeover at the world's largest Drum & Bass festival Let It Roll just a few weeks ago, the man himself steps up to deliver his most innermost music yet. The 'Depths EP' sees Forbidden Society stepping out of his trademark industrial edged production into more leftfield, experimental territories. Though always with an eye on the dance floor, the 'Depths EP' is a welcome addition to the Forbidden Society arsenal.

TELEKINESIS return on powerful form to the EATBRAIN label with 5 tracks of a truly insidious and tearing nature in the NO BRAIN, NO PAIN EP. The pseudo-friendly eerie nature of ‘Slime Gland’ leads the way, with nostalgic synth lines and airy pads punctuated by sharp steppy percussion. The amen-laced structures of ‘Meanwhile’ build into a lean assault on the ears with a bassline in a deep stealth profile tucked tight against the beat. ‘No Brain, No Pain’ delivers a schizophrenic and penetrative sonic influx, leaning towards the comedic but retaining an overwhelmingly destructive form. ‘Wipe Out’ carries the powerful vocal of Eatbrain MC favourite NUKLEAR, whilst ‘It Could Be a Trap’ completes the EP with an effective and exceptional half stepper that seeks to obliterate everything in its rave-fuelled path.

Following ‘The Nightwalkers’ EP that saw them win over the Eatbrain fanbase in 2013, Slovenian production crew Telekinesis have gone on to dominate the European drum & bass scene with heavy touring and an ever-growing fanbase. With the release of NO BRAIN, NO PAIN and their return to neurofunk’s premiere label, they’re set to ignite a new wave of tech-fuelled terror.

‘Fractals’, a full spectrum of the production standard Impak has at his disposal whilst nodding to his intricate layering and intimidating atmospherics. Stepping down the tempo and manifesting a bassline which treads carefully between each twist of metallic percussion, he merges an intricate underpinning to its throbbing skeleton. Impak shows a flagrant versatility with every stab of bass, proving that despite his penchant for neurofunk, he’s able to draw his expertise into a cross-pollination of music which extends itself into the track’s every corner.
