RUBI001 - Skeptical - Push Up

The French maestro that is War is back on CIA, and as per usual, there’s no messing around. He always means business when he’s pumping out beats, and this new single is no different. Since relocating out of Bristol there haven’t been so many releases from the young producer, but when there have, they always ooze quality and depth and detail - strengths that he’s developed and continues to hone to the next level. ‘To Shape The Fire’ and ‘Justice’ scream precision, laser guided weapons for the floor. But they also bring a technicality and depth that few can shoe-horn into tracks that also have enough weight to test even the biggest and best systems. Drop these ones at the dance floors peril.

After his debut on The North Quarter at the end of 2022, upcoming talent Styke is back with the lead track for his forthcoming ‘Mountains Past EP’. The single - ’Let You Know’ - sees the The Hague native team up with switch/case and Steo. Having lit up clubs and festivals for most of 2023, this is a slice of future soul and the first taste of Styke’s highly anticipated ‘Mountains Past’ extended player.

Red-hot drum & bass talent En:vy kicks off 2025 with a five-track EP that showcases his ear-catching skills across various sonic styles.
 
Title track ‘Silver Riff’ leads the way, with tightly clipped drums and an ever-switching staccato bassline ready to please fans of the sort of hyper-energetic, funk-drenched grooves that EN:VY has already made his own - most notably on tracks such as last year’s ‘Red Hot Fight’, which also gets the VIP treatment here.
 
‘Stan It’ takes things moodier, layering shivering drum breaks and super-low subs for a fresh take on the classic ‘90s D&B sound, while ’Damaio’ adds further depth; dropping suffocating sound design over a 140bpm, heads-down dubstep rhythm.
 
‘Admire’ closes the EP with yet more variety, as EN:VY delivers a surprisingly smooth and soulful liquid drum & bass roller, leaving no doubt that there’s so much more yet to hear from Critical’s latest star.

The beginning wip

João Oliveira a.k.a. Null started to mix and produce in his teen years, constantly searching for his own style and since then, he never stopped. Over the years, his biggest influence has been minimal tech-ish deep vibes found in many genres. Nevertheless, it was when he found Bass music, like Dnb and dubstep, that he finally found the sound that allows him to create music that speaks to his heart and soul.
