Stream / Download / Vinyl → https://fanlink.to/CRITXX

“Compilation albums have a special place in my heart and to mark our birthday year I really wanted to release a project that was distinctive and exciting. An album that showcases the diversity of the label, the talents of the many artists we work with and ties together the threads and themes the producers explore.

The 22 exclusive tracks here are a perfect snapshot of the sound that Critical is wanting to be at the forefront of : Underground drum and bass in many different forms but always with that cutting edge.

The physical album is a strictly limited edition 6 piece vinyl box set with artwork designed by Steiner Grafik. The box itself is beautiful with silver ink printed on both the inside and outer shell, the records are pressed on 120gsm virgin vinyl and the 6th plate has a special etching to commemorate the birthday.

We have a deluxe version too which is limited to 100 copies. This includes the album box , a special aluminium print of the artwork, a signed poster, a multi page fanzine designed by Studio Yasseen Faik, stickers and a slipmat. (update: Deluxe box sets have now sold out)

It feels good to look back and be proud but the future is even more exciting and I hope you get a view of that through this album and the amazing music it contains.” – Kasra

A New York veteran with more than two decades in the game, Adred has carved his name across labels like Metalheadz, Dispatch, 31 Recordings, and Soul:r. Known for cinematic depth, dub weight, and razor-sharp dancefloor execution, his productions and DJ sets have long balanced mood with movement, always keeping heads locked in.

Adred 'Take Me To 92' [Plush Recordings]

PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a new wave of experiments from Paperfunk Recordings

The third-generation capsules are opening. Inside lies a fusion of ideas conceived within the walls of the Neuropunk Academy and tempered in the laboratories of rhythm. Under the bass microscope and within the sequencer grids, fresh forms of sound are being born — prototypes ready to break free from their blueprints and speak the language of the dancefloor.

Curated by Paperclip, Menfort (Gydra) and NERV3 — three seasoned architects of sound who have combined their experience and taste to guide the participants through every stage of track creation, from the very first ideas to fully armed club weapons.

Inside PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 you’ll find:

Bass constructions with mutation effects — lines that change shape in real time, like a living organism under a microscope.

Rhythmic fractures — grooves that shatter predictability and make your body react on instinct.

Technoid filigree — every detail of each track sharpened down to the millisecond, yet still breathing with the creator’s energy.

This compilation is a proving ground where a new generation of drum & bass producers put their sonic machines to the test under full dancefloor combat conditions. Different approaches, unique voices, one shared drive for a breakthrough.

PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a test drive of the future, and you’ve got the ticket right now.

PRE ORDER NOW (via bandcamp) TO RECEIVE ANOTHER CHANCE by DLR 1 week early - - -Next up from Sofa Sound is the forthcoming collaborations from drum & bass heavyweights DLR, Break, Randall and Ulterior Motive, a collective who’ve all helped to pioneer the genre whilst staying inherently underground. Whilst Break and Randall have laid its foundations, producers like DLR and Ulterior Motive have shaped the more contemporary scene, although both tracks signify the colossal engineering standards of each featuring artist. The established names also bring their weight to Sofa Sound’s back catalogue, which has expanded since its creation by DLR in 2017. 

DLR, Break and Randall come together for lead track ‘Song & Dance’, an old-school reminiscent roller with snipped up, mc-lead vocal samples and jazzy instrumentals. The energy between all three artists is instantly recognisable, with Randall’s old-school approach shining through each layer. On top of strung guitar notes and a hook which nods to its namesake, ‘Song & Dance’ blends a mixture of styles to present a versatile addition to Sofa Sound.

Next comes ‘Modules’, featuring a combination of sonics recorded through Ulterior Motive’s modular set up. The ruminating drums and basses brought from the collections of their collaborators deliver its funkier elements, with the bassline fluctuating between notes and twisting its way through a melodic undertow. Alongside its unusual structure, the track’s organic approach and frequent switches grab its listener unaware. Another imperative release on Sofa Sound, the imprint has shown its commitment to artists from across the spectrum, through both its digital releases and physical discography additions.

No Love EP

No Love

‣ Available here: backl.ink/legacyep
‣ Website/Bandcamp release date: 17 August 2020
‣ General release date: 21 August 2020

Almost 2 years on from his Metalheadz Platinum debut Finnish breakbeat stalwart Fanu returns with 4 slabs of distinguished jungle music for the 'Legacy EP'.

Fanu's characteristic crunch is consistent throughout as he joins forces with fellow countryman Infader for the title track which sits above 3 solo cuts, 1 of which drops the tempo just as his previous offering did. Ice cold breaks and galactic atmospherics drive each track along effortlessly, with Fanu laying down his own methods which have brought about his reputable nature as both a producer and trusted mastering engineer.

Lenzman & Dan Stezo: two friends from way back when, connecting through a mutual love of music. Recording mixtapes became a tradition that has spanned decades. Through the years the music industry changed, technology changed and life circumstances changed... but the mixtapes remain.

28 tracks mixed with Lenzman's seamless flow, backed with Dan Stezo's introspective lyrics.

The Metalheadz back catalogue features almost every major figure in the history of drum and bass, and is one of the most innovative labels out there, consistently crossing boundaries with its releases since 1994. The labels output continues to showcase a maturing genre of music that displays influences from reggae, hip-hop, house and techno with highly-sophisticated and intricately-produced tracks, contrary to the image of the music that is typically presented by the mass media.

Releasing music from some of the biggest names out there whilst at the same time pushing and letting new talent break through are the reasons why Metalheadz continues to stay at the forefront of electronic music.

The Metalheadz label was also the driving force behind the seminal Sunday Session Club Nights, which achieved legendary status at London's Blue Note club. Today, Metalheadz club nights are often sell outs with the label also regularly hosting stages at some of the biggest festivals across the world.
