One of Czech Republic's leaders of dancefloor Drum & Bass, Madface has made waves in the club with singles like “Claptrap”, “Falling”, and “Personal Jesus”. Now, as part of our 20 Years of Viper celebrations following releases from Matrix & Futurebound & Blaine Stranger and Justin Hawkes’ remix of Metrik – Freefall, Madface delivers the aptly named “In The Club”.

Energetic from the get-go, sultry synths set the scene alongside an enticing vocal that gives the track its name. Wasting no time getting to the drop, Madface delivers one of the catchiest tunes of the year – this one was made for the club (as the name might suggest).

Sing-a-long basslines and lyrics paired with no shortage of bass make for one serious weapon of a tune. The epitome of Dancefloor Drum & Bass, this record proves not only why Madface found a perfect home when signing to Viper, but that no one comes close to Viper when it comes to the classic dancefloor sound. Stay tuned for more as we celebrate 20 Years of Viper.

In what has quickly become a favourite label series, Viper are proud to present the next edition of Future Fire, and the first of 2024. As with previous volumes, Future Fire Vol. 4 delivers five brand new tracks from the scene’s best & brightest emerging talent, celebrating the diversity of the scene across the world and shining a much deserved spotlight on some new names.

Starting off strong, Axel Boy returns to Viper alongside Natty Lou with “In The Future” which also features the illustrious vocals of Émilie Rachel. A vibrant dancefloor number, Axel Boy’s already successful bass music career provides a creative insight into DnB production, pairing perfectly with Natty Lou’s signature energy observed behind the decks and now behind the studio. Together with Émilie Rachel’s bold vocals, “In The Future” is blazing Drum & Bass at its finest.

Next up to bat are newcomers Deep Notion together with Viper veteran Trei, arguably two of New Zealand’s hottest acts. “Everything I Want” is immediately recognisable as an underground gem, transporting the listener to the heart of the scene from the very first second. Sultry namesake vocals lead the way to a tasty dose of bass that is sure to keep Deep Notion and Trei on anyone’s radar.

A collaboration between our UK & US DNB family, SIREN teams up with LMNOP on “Vamos”, delivering rolling basslines and a groovy lead melody that is sure to have crowds singing along to every note – this one is a guaranteed earworm. Combining the newly popular stateside sounds with the now iconic flare of the UK underground, “Vamos” has turned out to be a match made in DnB heaven.

The penultimate track comes from a brand new name on Viper via 10xx. Hailing from The Netherlands, 10xx delivers an impressive sample of his sound with the aptly named “Get Down”. Equal parts dark and enticing with an electrifying drop, “Get Down” will leave the listener wanting more from 10xx.

Last but certainly not least, Viper welcome Armodine back to the label with “Same Thing”. A mysterious yet enchanting intro draws the listener in while soulful vocals add warmth and depth to the constantly evolving soundscape. Managing to inject a nostalgic feeling into something brand new, Armodine certainly doesn’t disappoint with his offering to this monumental EP.

With five brand new tracks coming from all across the world, Future Fire Vol. 4 is shaping up to be one of the biggest yet. Hand selected by label boss Futurebound, there is certainly something for every taste and who knows, you might just discover your new favourite artist before everyone else on the next Future Fire.

Kiwi duo Sly Chaos return to Viper following their Future Fire debut “Right Now” featuring NÜ with a three track EP entitled “Let It Burn”.

The title track features Ella Monnery (who you might recognise from Ekko & Sidetrack’s “Take Me Home”) and is a cinematic masterpiece. Full of drama and suspense, the track opens on such an enchanting note only to be flipped upside down on the drop. Working together with producer SIU, “Let It Burn” sets the bar high for this EP.

“Light It Up” is another serious weapon, this time with Indy Skies on vocals. Her distinctive bars pair perfectly with the tracks resounding bass and gun finger inducing riffs – this one is for the ravers without question.

Last but certainly not least, “Real Love” has the duo working with industry legend Ayah Marar (known for “Kill The Silence” with The Prototypes) for a seriously catchy record. Infectious melodies pair with Ayah’s powerful vocals and sing-a-long lyrics all leading to a classic dancefloor drop.

Since their debut Sly Chaos have come a long way and this three track EP is certainly up to par with the rest of the Viper family catalogue. A testament to the growing scene in New Zealand and beyond, Viper are proud to welcome Sly Chaos back to the label this year – there will certainly be more in store.

I've got interested in electronic music in the early 80's, influenced by Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis and Kraftwerk. Later attracted to the 90's new genres like house and its ever-more hypnotic, synthetic offspring techno and trance. Thank you for listening and I appreciate comments or constructive feedback.
