Survival & Silent Witness
A. Noise 3
AA. The Wall 

Release Date | 23.09.2013

Dispatch heavyweights Survival & Silent Witness return for DIS072 and as expected the results are nothing short of stunning with two straight up, no nonsense slabs of Drum & Bass that are guaranteed to cause complete carnage and leave a trail of devastation in their path.

Survival & Silent Witnesses ability certainly needs no introduction and “Noise 3” Issues everything you would expect from the duo with an outing of pure funk fused tech that tears along at light speed providing an outing that will lift the roof off any dance floor with brutal ease and effect.

The flip, “The Wall” strips things back with heavy helping of live drums and delayed fx to provide that perfect rolling vibe essential to keep heads nodding and the crowd moving.

As with all press releases we could continue to bang on about how great these are but the proof is always in the listening and Survival & Silent Witness here show exactly why they are considered some of the best in the game with a 12 that hits all those important sweet spots of technicality in combination with musicality.

A must have for all the serious D&B heads and another buy on listen release from the Dispatch Camp – Not to be missed.

Survival & Silent Witness - Noise 3 - Dispatch 072 A (CLIP) - OUT NOW

Stamina is one amazing piece of music, right from the intro until the very last beats. Things begin calmly enough, before the drums and bass kick off in tandem. The earth will shake, your sets will vibrate, and your brains will explode once this one gets going. Prepare yourself for impact as a marauding bassline sets its course straight for you, as effects and vocal snatches compliment. Straight up, front and centre drum & bass that makes no pretentions and takes no prisoners. Rough.

Joe Ford & Fourward - Katana

Drum & bass stalwarts Black Sun Empire are to follow up a trio of recent EPs from The Upbeats, Neonlight and Pythius with the release of ‘Until The World Ends’ - a five-track, collaborative EP with NZ duo State Of Mind. To be released on January 26th via their genre-defining Blackout imprint, it marks an exciting start to 2015.

Lead track ‘Ego’ immediately sets the tone with growling bass lines and punchy synth-stabs that underpin dark, techy atmospherics and vocal loops.

Second track ‘Until The World Ends’ proves once again both acts’ enduring versatility - kicking off with a bass-heavy dubstep tones complimented by vocal duties from State Of Mind’s fellow New Zealander PNC, before

switching to a manic, intelligently structured groove for the remainder.

‘Bad’ opens with progressive percussion and softly-worked synths that move euphorically to a pounding drum break, whilst fourth track ‘Jack Nicholson’, featuring an imitable sample of the man himself, is a bass-fuelled shockwave of a track. Final track.

‘Moonbox’ closes the EP in true Blackout fashion, with signature frenetic beats and firing drums rounding off proceedings in style.

Black Sun Empire have built a reputation for curating their own brand of dark, neurofunk-inspired drum & bass over the past 12 months and this collaboration with long term accomplices State Of Mind - whom released their latest album ‘Eat The Rich’ via the label earlier this year - feeds into the hype surrounding Blackout as the label looks ahead to 2015.

Tracklist: 
01 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind feat. PNC - Until The World Ends 
02 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Bad 
03 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Ego 
04 - Black Sun Empire & State of Mind - Jack Nicholson

Release // What Lies Ahead L.P.
Label // Cause4Concern Recordings
Release Date // 13/05/2019

Beginning your introduction to the new Optiv & CZA album is ‘Gemini’, which dissects the sound the duo is renowned for. With gliding percussive patches giving the track a more musical feel throughout its intro, you’re still dropped into deep, rhythmic bass pads which have become a tell-tale sign of the pair’s production.

Label // Cause4Concern Recordings
Release Date // 13/05/2019

‘Invisible Things’ and it switches things up a notch, with clattering drum rolls slicing through the mix as you’re taken into each catastrophic breakdown. There’s a groove which sits between each sequence of beats and it shows the background which C4C have adhered to, never watering down their production standard for the sake of the track’s heaviness. It’s your first insight into the forthcoming ‘What Lies Ahead’ album from C4C and it’s one which will certainly whet fans’ appetites for its release.

Disaszt - Tommy Gun Ft. Mindscape

With Mainframe’s last single from Naked Fish ushering in a new breed of talent to emanate from the Austrian homeland of the label’s origin, it makes sense now as we gradually move away from the murky depths of winter that Mainframe should return with a release from two artists that have epitomised the imprint’s sound since its inception in 2008. Label owner Disaszt teams up with Hungarian maestro Mindscape for two supreme slices of tech-funk in the form of A-Side ‘Sposh’ and ‘Tommy Gun’ on the flip.

Black Sun Empire feat Foreign Beggars - Dawn of a Dark Day (Receptor Remix)
Worldwide release date: March 25th 2013 (Exclusive to Beatport for two weeks)
www.facebook.com/blacksunempire
www.facebook.com/receptormusic

With support from a stunning cross section of industry players – Chase & Status, Pendulum, Friction, Camo & Krooked, Loadstar, Rockwell, High Rankin, Feed Me – and a position in the top five best-selling albums of 2012 on Beatport, Black Sun Empire’s ‘From The Shadows’ LP was one of the Dutch trio’s biggest accomplishments in their fifteen year, five album history. To celebrate? They’re serving up this disgustingly massive remix compendium.

Featuring some of the most exciting talents in drum & bass, each of the six remixes here offer a sizzling new slant on three of the album’s biggest tracks. All armed with their own character and uncompromising dynamics, it’s a challenge deciding which one to drop first…

‘All Is Lost’ starts the set with the perfect balance of emotional sonic star-gazing and gritty bottom-end welly. With stunning hymn-like vocals from Thomas Oliver and hype-hungry attitude from Youthstar, it’s widely regarded as one of the album’s boldest highlights. Naturally both Memtrix and Telekinesis have stepped up to the massive challenge.

Lifted fave Memtrix goes first. Opening with teases of the original’s euphoric synths, he lets the vocals breath for one second before BANG: utter bassline sickness takes over. Complete sonic bombardment of the senses, there is no mistaking Memtrix’s direction and focus for this prime-time piece of D&B naughtiness. And there’s no mistaking the raw power of Telekinesis’s remix, either… Igniting with piano-primed ‘lighters up’ intro, we’re soon pushed into the deepest end of the darkness pool with Youthstar’s spitfire delivery, a gut-busting halfstep groove and a murder of distorted bass tones. Flipping to full D&B tempo midway, it’s a strident party piece that will stay in your wallet or playlist from now until the 23rd century.

Next up, ‘Dawn Of A Dark Day’: A blazing unity of UK grime and Euro neuro, the day Black Sun Empire called up the Foreign Beggars for mic-duties was a game-changing day for the entire bass industry. Naturally both remixes pay respect to the fusion and fire of the original. Prolix takes the original’s swaggering halfstep intro and adds a touch more menace on the low-end and an industrial punch to the beats before dropping into a rampant, rolling speaker-smasher. No face will be left unmelted when you drop this. We guarantee it. Meanwhile Receptor adds his own interpretation with an instant uptempo kickstart and the creative use of drama-drenched cinematic strings and devilish Slayer-level guitars.

‘Killing The Light’ brings us to a fitting climax with two of drum & bass most distinctive, forward-thinking acts on remix duties. Delicately dressed with the heart-melting vocals of Inne Eysermans, the raw emotion makes ‘Killing The Light’ the closest thing to a ballad Black Sun Empire will ever write. Paying respect to this, Icicle sharpens the kicks and snares, weaves haunting pads into the mix and takes the vocal to the darkest place imaginable. For those looking for more of a laser-snapping edge, look no further than June Miller’s remix; bolstered with a gargantuan bassline and searing sonic flares, the Dutch-Anglo duo have taken the softness and depth of the original and subverted into a priceless peaktime banger that NO D&B DJ should be without this season.

BTK - Bandits ft Mindscape [V Records]

OPTIV is a name firmly embedded in both the forefront and deep memory of any true fan of drum & bass. He emerged into the scene with the seminal Cause4Concern sound, which made an enduring mark that influenced many of today’s great artists, including Noisia, and helped to mould the tech aesthetic that we –know today. The Optiv moniker erupted into existence a few years after the establishment of Cause4Concern, with the founding of his own label Red Light Records in 2002, an imprint that continues to be influential in both launching the careers of promising artists such as Inward, Hanzo & Randie, Impak as well as putting out high quality audio from established artists such as Tobax, Telekinesis, The Upbeats and Black Sun Empire. This is in addition to running the pioneering C4C Recordings imprint, that’s been committed to pushing forward-thinking tech for close to two decades now.
Over the course of Optiv’s prolific and long-running solo career, he’s released on a significant range of labels, including leading taste-makers such as Virus, Playaz, Blackout, Subtitles, Eatbrain, Hospital, Shogun Audio, Invisible and Dispatch to name just a few. His commitment to a pure analogue sound, inspired by his techno and electro roots, in combination with a stripped aesthetic that requires audio purity, has ensured that his sound remains both timeless and ahead of the pack. With years of experience behind him to apply to the dance, as well as his immaculate sense for freshness, Optiv is a tried and tested artist who continues to make a significant impact on the drum & bass sphere.
