No Escape

PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a new wave of experiments from Paperfunk Recordings

The third-generation capsules are opening. Inside lies a fusion of ideas conceived within the walls of the Neuropunk Academy and tempered in the laboratories of rhythm. Under the bass microscope and within the sequencer grids, fresh forms of sound are being born — prototypes ready to break free from their blueprints and speak the language of the dancefloor.

Curated by Paperclip, Menfort (Gydra) and NERV3 — three seasoned architects of sound who have combined their experience and taste to guide the participants through every stage of track creation, from the very first ideas to fully armed club weapons.

Inside PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 you’ll find:

Bass constructions with mutation effects — lines that change shape in real time, like a living organism under a microscope.

Rhythmic fractures — grooves that shatter predictability and make your body react on instinct.

Technoid filigree — every detail of each track sharpened down to the millisecond, yet still breathing with the creator’s energy.

This compilation is a proving ground where a new generation of drum & bass producers put their sonic machines to the test under full dancefloor combat conditions. Different approaches, unique voices, one shared drive for a breakthrough.

PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a test drive of the future, and you’ve got the ticket right now.

NERV3 - Singular

Next up on the Incurzion Audio release schedule is a massive 4 track EP from Rantik. For those that don't know, Rantik is a seriously talented up-and-coming producer from Newcastle with a strictly deep and technical focus to his productions. "Persona EP" is his latest masterpiece and is a true reflection of his diversity as a producer and the uncompromising quality he strives for.

"Fragment", a fast-paced technical track with continual vocal stabs maintaining the energy, and a drum roll which is unforgiving and really pushes the track forward. Don't be fooled however, the track is not strictly one dimensional as Rantik mixes it up completely on he second drop.

Up next is "Blood Loss" is deep and soulful with a lyrical element perfectly complimenting to the progressive synth heavy sound pervasive throughout the track. Extremely refined, we start strong and it's only up from here.

In contrast to the rest of the EP, "Phase One", a murderous and unapologetic monster of a tune with deep bellowing growls and a sound system testing bass line, overlain with powerful drums and many interesting sound design elements. This EP truly has it all.

To close the EP is "Mirrors" is a much more relaxed number that takes you on an emotional journey. Perfectly crafted, this track is a major compliment to the rest of the release and brings in another dimension that completes the EP.
