Drum&bass: Revised

Drawing you ever-deeper into their forthcoming LP ‘1x1’, Calyx & TeeBee’s next offering presents not only a landmark release, but also their unbridled integrity. The anticipation around this second album is only growing, having scored three Beatport numbers ones with their latest singles. On top of playing sold out shows at Brixton Academy, as well as festivals across the Atlantic and singles and producing remixes on major labels, it’s clear to see how they’ve met these benchmarks. 

‘Cloud 9’ sees Calyx back on vocals, adding a soulful depth which creates a narrative behind the music. Carefully drawn out lyrics create a cinematic edge, intimate and adding an 80’s new wave flare which is seldom seen within the genre. Layers gradually build underneath the track’s more humanistic elements, with a distorted bassline revving up and peddling the record forward. Ducking and diving between twisted beats, you’re launched through a segment of glitchy sonic, before stockier subs underpin the composition. A testament to an unbreakable production standards, it only alludes to another studio album set to make history.

The name ‘Panic Attack’ in itself is foreboding; implicating an explosive flipside, it delivers with an almighty kick and leaves you reeling. Snapping and kicking between hi-hats and low-mids, ‘Panic Attack’ is explosively aggressive from its roll out. Winding up on elongated note patterns and quaking percussion, the erratic break pushes you through a soundscape of madness. However, this is one methodically built… Keeping you hooked from start to finish with pounding drum loops. An incredible verification of their technical knowledge, this isn’t just the groundwork for a second studio album. It epitomises the solid, reverberating history the duo hold between them.

Rave Cult Ft. Phace

After honing their trade in Southampton, drum & bass duo Gerra & Stone have made several successful forays into the wider world over the past couple of years. Regular players at Dispatch and Proximity, the pair have been turning heads in the RAM camp during 2015, dropping a killer jungle VIP of 'L.I.E.S.' via the label's recent RAMsterdam compilation. Now returning for their second effort for sister label, Program, Gerra & Stone have set thrusters to full once again!

A-side 'Dnt U' is as techy as they come, all retching, mutant synths and hard-nosed drumwork. Yet the outfit's love for the old school still features. Sly, junglistic elements peep through the gaps, giving the track extra depth and character.

Stream 'Dnt U' in full here, and pick up a copy along with AA 'Chicago' exclusively via the Program Beatport from November 20th: https://pro.beatport.com/label/program/27842

Gerra & Stone - Dnt U

Aired 10th Nov. 2015 on Friction's BBC Radio 1 show: http://bbc.in/1OCaAZv. Out 20th Nov. 2015 on Viper Recordings. Buy on iTunes: http://smarturl.it/vpr081

Earlier this year BMotion dropped 'Bear Hug / Vice City' on Viper Recordings. The single was met with a rapturous reception from both ravers and DJ's alike. Smashing out clubs from Cardiff to California, 'Bear Hug' was championed by luminaries such as Matrix & Futurebound, Brookes Brothers, Calyx & Teebee, Dimension, S.P.Y, ShockOne, Metrik, and Drumsound & Bassline Smith to name just a few.  

Already an established and respected member of the Viper family, BMotion returns with his third and arguably largest release on the label thus far in the form of 'Arabia / Ignition'.

'Arabia' is full of eastern promise and percussion. A beautiful and almost mystic vocal floats over the build until it hits you like a sand storm with rolling beats and an extremely rude bassline.

'Ignition' lulls you into a false sense of security with its lush and cinematic melodies before the massive bassline abruptly deals you a slap across the face and demands you wake up and listen.

BMotion's continued assault of high quality bass and beats has seen him win fans in very high places. From Sigma, Netsky, and DJ Marky, to UKF, Liquicity, and Friction on BBC Radio 1, he has impressed the right people in the right places. His latest single is sure to continue this trend and see him continue to build on his reputation for massive dancefloor tunes and immaculate production.

We begin at the dawn of time, before the formation of stars and celestial bodies, before all matter existed as an intensely hot homogeneous soup. Starting at the point from which the initial singularity erupted, setting the path of the Universe as we know it and in the process forging a twin universe to our own. A parallel mirror universe to which this leading neurofunk label have ripped open a portal…
EATBRAIN are very proud to present the MIRROR UNIVERSE LPs – plucked from the very fabric and citizens of the twin reality and ours. Maintaining the portal between universes continuously over the past year, a significant amount of audio material has made it across the divide. With producers and their mirror twins in both universes working to deliver a stunning array of tracks and constructing LP’s of unprecedented scope.

In case you don't know, WAR is essentially the black ops division of Technique Recordings. The imprint only emerges from cover on rare occasions and, when it does, it always signals the delivery of a heavy payload of explosive dancefloor material. This particular mission demonstrates that the name Worldwide Audio Recordings is no idle boast. This unit has truly international credentials.

The USA represents in the form of LA-based duo Kronology's opener, “Vertigo”. Portentous G-funk arpeggios meld with a dread-laden low-end pad and an eerie vocal sample to give warning of danger ahead. Then a warping build delivers us into the midst of tough sweeping bass and gym-ripped drums. This is hardbody music to keep the dancefloor energised.

Then Ukraine's in the house, as MaxNRG's “50,000” rolls through. This one's the sound of a producer refusing to compromise on their quirky individual style. The pizzicato of the intro weaves into a progression of harmonic tones and the pitch-twisted vocal element that gives the track its name. Pop-and-lock drums and swathes of mid-range drive, punctuated with classic MPC-style hits give this an irresistible groove.

Of course, the UK isn't left out of the party. The prolific North Base crew come scientific with “Extrimus”, a dark brew of technoid ingredients. An unsettling intro, built from ominous tones and an unpredictable chord sequence, gives way to a surprisingly melodic drop. Riffs and pieces of riff fold and collapse around each other as bass and drum deliver the heartbeat of the track. This is edge-of-the-seat music, with the unexpected around every corner.

Then Erb N Dub steps up with “Payback”. This is dense, spectrum-filling production. Uncompromisingly tough beats and bass modulations that are going to get even the most stalwart wall-hangers moving, combined with chase-scene stabs give this a relentless energy. The addition of rising alarm-call lines and a lighters-in-the-air breakdown means that this one warrants playing right to the second drop.

Spain comes correct with Gradual's neural workout “Psychodelicious”. An impenetrable web of sound assaults the senses in the intro, with dialogue fighting for attention with oscillating tones on all sides. The drop rips the atmosphere to shreds, reconfiguring it into a stripped-down, almost dub-like arrangement. Stridently militant drums keep time as the grime and filth of the bass drives the track onwards. This is one to drop to darken up the rave.

Fighting the rear-guard action is Austria's Infrasonik, with “The Horror”. In the distance, a disturbing chime pattern heralds the approach of something sinister. That's delivered by the rising inflection of the build, leading to a drop which provides no relief. The rhythmic interplay of drums and bass keeps cranking up the heart-rate of the track, until the momentary calm of the breakdown. Infrasonik have delivered on their title, fully evoking ever-increasing tension which is going to give this a guaranteed place in creative selectors' sets.

This EP shows off both the international and interconnected nature of the scene. Showing off musicality, technical expertise and the variety of individual takes on rave-aimed D&B,
“Cubic” provides an insight into the minds of some of the hottest producers from around the world. And it'll destroy some dancefloors in the process.

2.	MaxNRG – 50,000
