Paperclip and 3xil3 debut on Neuropunk!

As one of Moscow's true veterans one of the scene, it was only a matter of time until Pavel Popovich aka PAPERCLIP shows up here. Way back in 2006 he started his production journey on old-school Techstep labels like Protogen and Shadybrain, but over the years he also appeared on Mindtech Recordings, Neurofunk What Else? and Fokuz Limited. However, he always preferred to manage his releases himself. Since 2010 he runs his own label Paperfunk Recordings, with a focus on Neurofunk that's unforgivingly hard and metallic. Especially in recent years he has become more involved with the Neuropunk brand, from multiple appearances on events to even mixing and hosting some of the podcast episodes. Together with well-known Saint Petersburg based DJ 3XIL3, also known as Andrei Romanov, he now becomes even more entrenched by emerging from the NEUROPUNK FORGE with their double single RASTVOR / VACUUM!

A few decades ago, I worked at a lab where we worked on this chemical solution that enhances an organism's physical properties tenfold, per milligram ingested. Originally we wanted to use RASTVOR, as we called it, on humans, but soon we became interested in applying it to all sorts of animals. Just think about it, super-powered horses or elephants would be simply unstoppable! One day, one of the workers must have left their food unattended, because the next morning our lab was absolutely swarming with rats. Not just normal rats though. They managed to chew through the potion containers and drank every last bit of it. Every technician who took a step into the storage room was immediately jumped and chewed up by the frenzied rodents.
We tried everything. Fire weapons didn't work. Sending in predatory animals didn't work either. Starving them was not a good plan either, as the warehouse had food for months in it. Only after we had exhausted pretty much every other option did we finally arrive at a promising option: Rewire the air conditioning to create a VACUUM in the warehouse and suffocate them! To be absolutely sure, we kept the oxygen levels at zero percent for a full 24 hours, after which we let the air back in so we could start cleaning up. However, before we could even step a foot into the room, the rats had begun moving again. They must have entered some sort of hibernation mode, allowing them to survive long periods of time even without air. We were out of options and not long after we abandoned the warehouse altogether.

Stampede

Esta es la segunda entrega de algo que intenta reflejar mi estilo dentro del Drum And Bass. Aunque siempre cambiante, mantengo esas baterías rápidas y contundentes acompañado con una buen bajo que une todo y hace que cobre sentido. 
Rápido, profundo y enfadao 😤

Espero que lo disfrutéis.

Santoku has already dominated US waters with their take on drum & bass, setting a standard within the American scene which has also infiltrated its sounds across the Atlantic. For the label’s next release, Instinkt steps forward after becoming a renowned name on imprints such as Red Light, Kill Tomorrow, Methlab, Lifestyle, Delta 9 and more pivotal record labels which have helped to define the underground scene. The trio bring their individual skills sets together, from their hometowns in Germany and Denmark, to present a cross pollination of styles which highlights just how diverse the drum & bass genre has become since its inception. Humanon also jumps on board, with one member of Instinkt joining the Slovakian and Czech team in destroying dancefloors with their own hard lined offering on Santoku’s forthcoming ‘Not Human’ EP. With an added collaboration from Interzeptor, a brand new outfit from Vienna, it’s one of the imprint’s most versatile, European deliveries to date.

Title-track ‘Not Human’ rolls out first, bringing together Humanon and Instinkt for a cut throat exploration of both outfit’s production standards. Its snaking LFO and clashing drums bring you into its heart, showing how both sets of artists go in hard and without limitations. Instinkt comes through next with the infamous Lifesize MC, who once again offers up his growling vocals throughout the tearaway record ‘Fiend’. You’re then introduced to ‘Fiend (VIP)’, which exhumes a welcome twist on the already snapping original, moving you into deeper waters whilst also rerouting the mix and pushing you through segments of antiquated, neuro infused breakdowns.

Finally you’re drawn into ‘Squad’ from both Instinkt & Interzeptor. It continues the EP’s hard lined approach, punching quicker layer after layer before it totally envelops you in its chaotic ways. With clanking percussion and a rhythm which chops and changes between every steppy set of drums, it’s the only way to end an EP which doesn’t turn down the volume from beginning to end. And that’s what makes this addition to Santoku’s discography so memorable. It not only presents the darker side of its talented roster, but also its expansion into the drum & bass world’s every corner.

Instinkt & Humanon - Not Human

PAPERFUNK RECORDINGS – is a dark drum&bass label which sound will be based on the hard and metallic techstep and neurofunk sound. There’s no place for popular sound. The label’s main goal is to flood cities and towns with the special mixtures containing nano-robots that supposed to get inside people’s brains and plunge them down in the deepest adolescent memories and show them the unrealized future. The hardness of the mix, the steel of the drums, the oil of the bass and the rust of the effects – are the main and crucial keywords of the PAPERFUNK label.


Officially speaking, our tracks will be selling out on the majority of the online music stores that’s why it’ll always be easy to find them available on the most popular online shops such as Beatport, TrackitDown, Digital-Tunes, etc.


We’d like to pay special attention to the concept of our label as an engine of progress. New talents will be expressing themselves right before your eyes and soon, behind the battle embrasures the fearless robots who, with the help of lasers and magnetic impulses, are able to bring you the meaning of the Neurofunk and Techstep’s existence, will arise.
