New music, new energy - Critical is proud to unleash the latest edition of cutting-edge sonics from its ever-evolving roster of talent.

Featuring 21 tracks that encompass the full Critical sound, ‘New Energy Vol 2’ combines fresh music from core label acts with productions from the imprint’s latest wave of recent contributors and fledgling artists.

Emperor’s ‘Jealousy’, ‘Close To You’ from label boss Kasra, YANO’s ‘Drained’ and Particle’s link-up with MC Verbz on ‘Stay The Night’ bring the late-night soul amongst a collection of tracks conceived for and born from the darkest corners of the dance floor.

There are tough, no nonsense and expertly crafted rhythms from well established names Enei, Calyx, T>I and Samurai Breaks (who debut on Critical with the manically experimental ‘Lemon Poppers’).

As always with Critical, though, the focus here is firmly on the future, with the bulk of tracks coming from the many newer names who have debuted on the label and its talent-shaping offshoot Binary over the last couple of years.

Unashamedly heavy, deliciously brutal rhythms come from the likes of SMG, VISLA, ABLE and QZB, alongside stepping grooves from En:Vy & Molecular with ‘Black Opal’ and Waeys & Azumai’s ‘Doggy Marriage’, plus template troubling, experimental crushers from Spectral on ‘TurboWave’ and Napes’ grime inspired ‘Balaclava’.

Reaching right across the sonic spectrum - ‘New Energy Vol 2’ is a panoramic perspective of electronic music’s most forward-thinking genre.

New Energy Vol.2

VISLA & Lavance - Power Brick

Kilowatt EP → https://found.ee/Kilowatt_EP

Swiss duo QZB make their second solo outing of the year for Critical with the ‘Kilowatt’ EP - packing four high-voltage drum & bass stunners, primed to electrify any dancefloor.

‘Antidote’ opens in cinematic style, layering lush soundscapes and drifting vocals over a moody filtered bassline; cross-wired with manic, razor sharp breakbeats.

Title track ‘Kilowatt’ is a simpler, but no less powerful groove, aimed straight at the rave, pushing things hard, deep and deliciously minimal.

‘Waste Your Time’ sees QZB link again with vocalist Sydney Bryce, whose vocals stretch and scatter across flicking snares and filtered, twisted bass; while ‘Cut Off The Top’ rolls out a dark jump-up rhythm kept moving by smart sound design and the bars of MC Freddy B.

The second instalment of Critical’s ‘rmx_series’ arrives with another batch of sonic reflections on some of the label’s key releases of recent years.

The rapidly rising En:vy is handed the keys to Enei, Kasra and MC Jakes’ 2019 collaboration, ’Transmission’; reworking the original in his typically tightly wound, funk-dripping style for a strict lesson in minimal jump-up drum & bass.

‘Roadblock’ - YANNO & VISLA’s storming collaboration from 2023 - gets the VIP treatment next, stripping back the busy drums and razing synths that defined the OG for a cleaner, stepping groove that lets MC Sparkz’s ferocious bars really sparkle.
Finally, one of the latest inductees into the Critical camp, latesleeper, makes just her second appearance on the label by transforming VISLA’s monstrous ‘RAKKA’ into an intricate dark-side roller with a solid sonic nod at early-90s jungle and hardcore.

Enei & Kasra - Transmitter feat. Jakes (En:vy Remix)

Stream/Download - https://bfan.link/cycles-ep

The latest instalment in Sustance's growing collection of EPs, Shogun Audio is excited to present the producer's latest body of work. Featuring first-time collaborations and superb solo cuts, the Bristol-based 174BPM specialist delivers some of his best and most innovative music to date on the 'Cycles' EP. 

Carrying on his ever-impressive streak of writing productions perfect for an array of dance music's most exciting vocal talents, 'Out The Storm' with Salo and 'Cycles', featuring IYAMAH's distinct toplines, see Sustance take his crisp, rolling, and sub-heavy sounds to new heights. On the heavier side of the project, 'That's Right', a collaboration with future star Para, and 'DMF', Sustance goes all in on the minimal, murky, hard-hitting side of the genre. 

From his 'Error Mod' EP on Shogun's sister label SGN:LTD back in 2019 to this latest 'Cycles' EP six years later, Sustance has firmly established himself as one of drum and bass' slickest producers and one who sounds right at home on Shogun Audio.
