Do you ever just want to call someone? Like for example your old buddies from the dubstep forum you called your friends in 2008, but you never met in real life?

You got into a big fight over the bro-stepification of the sound, and you lost not just your spirit but also your friends that went deeper into the doomed direction the genre was going. While you found assurance and peace in a post-dubstep world, that made the club-specific production finally listenable on your iPod classic headphones.

I know it's hard out here and dubstep has not been the same. Sometimes somewhere at a festival for a moment you may think it's back and everything can be as you remember it.
Yet, it's also ok that it's not. Maybe it's time to move forward and let things of the early 2000s be what they were.

Beatrice M. can’t bring you back your youth. They were probably even too young to use a computer back then. But for some reason this is what their new 2 Track Single “Call / Response” brings us back to. Reminiscing about the roots of an omnipresent genre while emerging with their own production style. Familiar sounds spin perfectly placed over a punchy kick drum. Simple, pure and genius. It’s a new direction for them, twisting their technoid and dub oriented influences, yet also an educated ode to the many productions that defined the sound of Beatrice.

“Call / Response” is a bass heavy love affair, calling on all the right highs and lows for the heads. Go buy it!

[EYX016] 'Last Laugh' - Preview Clips:

Following their outstanding appearance on Kindergarten Records VA Fluo III, Brooklyn-based DJ and producer Martini debuts on Early Reflex with their first EP titled ‘Last Laugh’.

Touching sonic landscapes adjacent to Leftfield Techno, Dubstep and Electro, Martini explores in their 4-tracker the power to impact on both body and mind through their immersive sound achieved by a precise manipulation of timbre and rhythm from the American producer.

Title track ‘Last Laugh’ opens the journey into Martini’s world with syncopated beats and its punch kick surrounded by warped effects and a texture of arpeggiated synthesisers.
Mood and BPMs shift into electro-mode in’If I Don’t Laugh I’ll Cry’ a heavy distorted synth signals to the listeners that an explosive beat is about to drop.
The dance keeps going on and on with ‘Chaste’ which follows next, a wormhole of incessant kick-drums, pitch-shifting effects and punchy-basses.
The atmospherical state of‘Serendipity’ close the sonic journey into Martini’s world, where mind-twisting pads and undistinguishable vocals pre-announce the landing on an extraterrestrial dub-heavy “sonosphere”.

Martini said:
“This EP represents my deep interest in expressing convoluted emotions and narratives through the precise manipulation of timbre and rhythm. I’m fascinated by the power sound has over your mind and body despite the level of abstraction it can exhibit, which I try to exploit by carefully crafting each sound.”

‘Last Laugh’ is available across all platforms on Friday 16th of February 2024.

Fetus, who has been gaining more attention with releases on Turing, the label he co-hosts with Oyubi, and on TREKKIE TRAX, will be released on 85acid.

The album begins with Wave Wave with its uplifting bass arpeggio, followed by Martian with its unique breaks and organic vibes. The title track, Flat W, showcases an even kick, and closes with Bug Bait, one of the most functional DJ tools on the album, with precise programming and sound design backed by Drum'n'Bass' experience. The ultimate club tool has been completed.

“Anclaje” es el tercer trabajo en solitario del productor y dj valenciano norim. Sus dos cortes se sitúan entre la pertenencia y el extrañamiento, sirviendo como medio para conectar con el cuerpo y abandonar el plano racional.

Es por ello que, tanto “Cruzado” como “Tendido”, simbolizan un oasis suburbano en medio de bloques de cemento y asfalto: compacto y sin embargo liviano. Pensados desde y para el soundsystem; constituyen dos herramientas fundamentales para lxs amantes del Dub/Bass y las líneas de bajo densas y cadenciosas.

“Cruzado” es el inicio de un descenso forzado a la corporalidad. Acompañado de unos toques sutiles de instrumentación etérea y sirenas, los drums espaciados se entremezclan con un bajo potente que no necesita competir para ganarse el puesto de protagonista principal.

“Tendido” nos mete de lleno en un ritmo poderosamente sincopado, atravesando valles y pendientes sin dejarnos más alternativa que la de “bailar bajito”, aproximadamente a la altura del subgrave que apunta directamente a las entrañas.

“Anclaje” is the third solo release from Valencian producer and DJ norim, composed of two cuts situated somewhere between pulls of belonging and the pushes of estrangement where the rational mind can be left behind.

Symbolising something of a suburban oasis amidst a jungle of concrete and asphalt, “Cruzado'' and “Tendido” are compact yet light pockets of sound. These essential tools for lovers of the intersection between Dub and Bass are packed with pressurised basslines and rhythms made with a soundsystem in mind.

Corporeal opening track “Cruzado” begins and forces us to descend into our bodies as touches of ethereal instrumentals and sirens move us through spaced-out drums and a powerful bassline that takes the lead in the composition.

Visceral cut “Tendido” then immerses us in a powerfully syncopated rhythm, traversing peaks and troughs of sound that leave our dancing bodies no choice but to sink down to a level approximately at the height of a subwoofer.
