Capping off the re-launch of STEPPING FORWARD in 2025, DaRuff joins the imprint with two songs that push our imprint further into the experimental DnB realm. Both ‘Mist’ & ‘Shimmering Peaks’ are adventures in polyrhythm, syncopation and layers upon layers of pads & strings all wound deftly between waterfalls of skittering breaks. Classic sounds familiar to “Jungle” lovers invite even the most road weary DnB listener in as DaRuff presents something refreshing in the form of his structures and ability to let the music roll on and on.

O hai!

Born and bred in Poland, where the Sun rarely shines and stolen German cars are most often found, I have been into and around drum & bass for quite a while, though my record collection expands into many different directions and genres. Yet, as the English language allows for the pun to follow, I like to emphasize that it all started from scratch :P Indeed, turntablism was the thing that drew me behind the decks and after all these years I still like to make use of what I've learned so far. However, as far as drum & bass is concerned, there are virtually no limits to what I play (with the small exclusion of the style embodied by McDonald’s most representative figure :P ). Also, I'm 1/2 of atmoteka - a series of atmospheric drum & bass mixes recorded by some of the most prominent producers and DJs who have made - and continue to make - significant contributions to the atmospheric side of drum & bass.
