Hold onto your hats and brace yourselves for the mighty force of one of the most powerful collaborative EPs we've had the pleasure of presenting.

 
El Retsof, UK based newcomer to the Findike Records roster, joins forces with a returning face, Ukraine's Following Light, to deliver an electrifying two-track trip that'll make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up on end.

 
Lead track 'Neuro Diversity' gets straight to the point as its heavy, pumping bass pounds towards a glowing break that you'd never have guessed was coming with its extravagant display of steel drum-like layered chinks and chimes, leading to lighting strikes that'll blow your mind as the melodic bass drops and they intertwine.

 
The B-side on this is just as impressive as the A-side, but with a noticeably more uplifting edge. 'Synaptic Contact' creeps in with a sustained synth wavering with intensity like a hornet wasp on the hunt, and builds beneath a warm, celestial atmosphere littered sparsely with random echoing hits and crashes before reaching a climax that'll hurtle you into oblivion with the weight of a thousand suns.

 
We'd like to thank El Retsof and Following Light for this remarkable body of work that we know you will enjoy, and that we are very proud to add to the Findike Records catalogue. Let's hope it is the first collaboration of many.

The first single from Binary State's upcoming ''InterFEARence' album on HeadzState.

We first introduced Nookie's 'Binary State' alias to HeadzState in 2022, and with two EPs now under his belt we are delighted to present the debut album from this techno-focused project.

Nookie is no stranger to lower tempos having always been inspired by the sounds of techno, specifically those emanating from Detroit in the late 80s and early 90s. It was only a matter of time before he took this passion to a new level in terms of production, something that has kept him thoroughly engaged in the studio in recent years.

Titled 'InterFEARence', the album focuses particularly on percussion, chord progressions and deeper, more intricate elements, smoothly coming together over 12 tight-knit tracks. This is a real journey in terms of a listening experience and one that we're proud to house as the first full length artist album on HeadzState.

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 drum and bass. The stable is currently home to Goldie, Lenzman, Jubei, Commix, Ulterior Motive, Artificial Intelligence, Dom & Roland, OneMind, Mikal, Blocks & Escher and SCAR.

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.
