🖤⚔️🔊☠️

As we welcome Stephen Redmore aka Mako back to the label, it’s important to note that Death of a Romantic is not only the debut LP for Mako on Samurai Music, but it also puts Mako in a solo category, a historic first - the only artist to ever release an artist LP on both Metalheadz and Samurai Music.

Death of a Romantic aptly captures Mako’s ability to span different corners of Drum and Bass’ musical palette - a talent cultivated by a musical approach informed by full absorption in the history of this music as a building block, plus a dedication to perfecting the science of breaking down the essential elements needed to make any construction approach at this tempo achieve maximum efficacy.

Followers of Mako’s music have no doubt taken note of this versatile approach to writing music and his gifted ability with breaks and sub-bass. For Death Of A Romantic, a considered approach to strip the music back more in line with the Samurai Music sound was taken but the album retains the Mako flavour - deft, subtle hooks, beds of sub and ethereal ambience, pinned down by total rhythmic potency.

Highlights are many, but the first tunes that were written for the LP embody perfectly the musical environment Mako built specifically for this LP - ‘The Both Of Us’ with its sinister intro and tear out conclusion, and ‘Raisuma’ - a call and response rhythm that is almost dub-like in feel with peaks that pack a hefty punch.

Makos's signature lead hooks appear, albeit tempered, to compliment the build reduction on tracks like ‘Falter’ and LP closer ‘We Can Love All’ - both are clear cases of this interpolation of Makos's own breadth of style, pointedly refined to slot into the LPs sound and utilising space to increase their power.

The Death of a Romantic song titles all carry a consistent message, one that Mako puts to use in his own life and interactions with other humans, and one we could all benefit from reflecting on at this time - life brings us joy and pain and much more in between, but if we live with compassion and humility, we can truly love all.

Tracklist:

01. Empathy Dub
02. Even Treasured Memories Fade
03. The Both of Us
04. False Promise
05. Falter
06. Cold Hands
07. Raisuma
08. Grieve
09. The Choice is Yours
10. We Can Love All

Friske
DROOGS012

A. Eyes Open
AA. Violator

Release Date: 24th February 2023

Friske turns in two thugged out weapons for UVB-76’s delinquent sister label DROOGS. Normally his releases showcase his mastery of the light and dark duality of Drum & Bass with a sensei’s precision, but for DROOGS he reminds everyone that to be adept in the Yin, you need to be an accomplished champion of the Yang.

The 303 acid rhythm of “Eyes Open” slithers through the smokey underworld, a measured and methodical killer that squeezes the listener tighter and tighter in its grasp
.
“Violator” goes full Rufige with broken side steps and gooned up stabs setting up speaker knocking thuds and miscreant B Boy atmosphere.

DROOGS012 : Friske - A. Eyes Open / AA. Violator

HLZ has finally released his highly anticipated debut solo single on Utopia Music, and it's been a long time in the making.

For true drum & bass enthusiasts, HLZ's name should already be on your radar. He has been curating the purest form of D&B since 2009 for the real heads out there. These tracks offer creativity and integrity, pushing the boundaries of his own respected style within the genre and nodding to times past with a modern update.

The two-track 12" wastes no time in showcasing HLZ's intentions. "Black Core" kicks things off with its icy break workouts, featuring raw, rasping drums with an industrial edge. It's not a high-speed roller but rather a sneaky creeper that satisfies those who want intricate beats backed with nightmarish overtones.

With "Arcane," HLZ takes us on a journey of pure pressure in the way he knows best, stepping rhythms, stabbing yet gut-punching bass design, working in tandem with groovy tablas, clever fx builds, topped with lush euphoric pad work, 170 in the truest form. It's a distinct track that reveals the hidden magic of a B-side.

This release demonstrates why HLZ is a crucial figure in the genre and upholds the core values of D&B.

Hailing from Poznan, Poland and leading the legendary DrumObsession crew, Locked Concept welcomes Alegria for his debut on the label.

Alegria was first approached for a release on Locked Concept following his debut EP - ’Petrograd’ on Akuratyde's Modern Conveniences. Although this wasn't the first time Lockjaw and Tellus had heard of Alegria, with the two label co-founders coincidentally seeing him DJ, supporting Kid Drama at one of the DrumObsession events in Poznan, way back in 2015.

Fast forward to 2024, Alegria delivers his forward-thinking ’Aurora Borealis’ EP. With different Poznan-based artists collaborating on three of the four tracks, the release stands as a sonically diverse contribution to the Locked Concept catalogue.

The title track - a joint effort with Tellus - kicked the entire effort off in the blissed out Autonomic style both artists love. Ewski, who used to be part of a legendary dubstep collective (Dungeon Beats), also found common ground with Alegria on ’The Healer’, which is the smoothest, and most delicate piece on the EP. ’Terra Incognita’ with Istota, who used to run a short-lived albeit stellar experimental drum & bass label Black Crane, is a 130 bpm bass-driven electro / breakbeat hybrid. Finally Voitek Noir joins Alegria on ’Englishman’ in a beautiful 80s-inspired Autonomic storytelling piece for the patient listener (wait for that second drop!).

They say good things come to those who wait and we’re glad Alegria and his friends took the time in crafting this EP.

I:Λ043 - Inception:Λudio - Kiri & Parasite Bloodline E.P

Bloodline
The title track "Bloodline" kicks off this EP with a haunting and cinematic feel. It draws us in with slow, sad synth melodies, a sample that feels heavy and tired, and, of course, the powerful drums that keep thumping. This is where Abstract truly shines.

Trash
The song features a rich texture with carefully created rhythmic sounds that draw us into its beat through similar drum patterns and edits. Each section of the music seems to surround us, filling the space we’re in.

Free Fall
The piece begins with a unique style, starting with a simple pad and then introducing a detailed lesson in drumming with different one-shot samples that set the mood. As we approach the main drop, the excitement begins to grow.

Alchemist
This track has a dark and moody feel. It includes distinctive synthesizers and sharp breaks that create intensity, 
along with powerful, modified bass. These features contribute to the overall darker vibe of this outstanding piece.

We are very pleased to welcome our good friend Namarone back to our label. The Swiss talent returns with his second full-length feature release, titled Whispering Rocks. The two tracks showcase the full spectrum of Namarone's signature sound—crisp drums, playful atmospheres, and sophisticated rhythms—a true creative masterpiece.
The EP is completed with a remix from the British powerhouse Mystic State. The duo completely flipped the title track and infused it with their own unique flavor. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
