PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a new wave of experiments from Paperfunk Recordings

The third-generation capsules are opening. Inside lies a fusion of ideas conceived within the walls of the Neuropunk Academy and tempered in the laboratories of rhythm. Under the bass microscope and within the sequencer grids, fresh forms of sound are being born — prototypes ready to break free from their blueprints and speak the language of the dancefloor.

Curated by Paperclip, Menfort (Gydra) and NERV3 — three seasoned architects of sound who have combined their experience and taste to guide the participants through every stage of track creation, from the very first ideas to fully armed club weapons.

Inside PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 you’ll find:

Bass constructions with mutation effects — lines that change shape in real time, like a living organism under a microscope.

Rhythmic fractures — grooves that shatter predictability and make your body react on instinct.

Technoid filigree — every detail of each track sharpened down to the millisecond, yet still breathing with the creator’s energy.

This compilation is a proving ground where a new generation of drum & bass producers put their sonic machines to the test under full dancefloor combat conditions. Different approaches, unique voices, one shared drive for a breakthrough.

PROTOTYPES Vol. 3 — a test drive of the future, and you’ve got the ticket right now.

NEUROSONIC - Military Strategy

A couple months ago I took a shot at the @HanzomMusic @Finalfix – Arrival  Remix Comp. I didn't expect to win, but I gave it my all. I’ve only been producing for 10 months, and being just 12 years old in this scene can feel like a lot… but this experience reminded me of something important: courage and passion matter more than age, experience, or doubt.

It was so much fun and even helped tick a lot of my school curriculum.

Getting an honorable mention from Hanzom Music isn’t just a win for me — it’s proof that if a 12-year-old can put themselves out there and make something real, anyone can. Never doubt your work. Never doubt your worth.

Massive love to everyone supporting me and the Hanzom Music crew for making this possible. The journey’s just getting started.

Hope you all enjoy my twist on this and enjoy the free download

It simmers beneath the surface. The tension builds with every bar, like an explosion long overdue. The sound is raw, unrelenting—soaked in frustration that doesn’t scream, just grows, circles, and grinds at your nerves. Everything in you wants to flinch, but somehow, this is exactly what you needed to hear. Vexed isn’t an attack. It’s a warning. And when it stops playing, it might already be too late.

KAIZEN FLOW - HEAVY DRUM & BASS [REC 027 - SEAL WORLD]

This year’s edition delivers 13 crushing tracks, with returning heavyweights and fresh faces contributing their most devastating work yet. From the chaotic ferocity of Anizo’s “Near Deaf”, to the mechanical grit of Direct Shift’s “Mutants”, the industrial savagery of FauxRealz, Noisesmith & Dark Adaptation’s “Horrid”, and the relentless energy of Wintour’s “Turbulence”, every track is crafted to test the limits of sound systems and stamina alike.
Also featured are dark, atmospheric cuts from Dialective, Korax, and Stonx, Hkay & Sindicate, alongside the boundary-pushing intensity of Protoss, Skorpion, and Pish Posh. Closing in with a
lethal dose of funk-driven distortion, MYGR’s “Cronus” proves the perfect fi nale to a compilation built on chaos and community.
Disciples of Distortion Vol. 4 is more than just an album, it’s a yearly statement. A testament to the global underground. A declaration of distortion.

What i Want

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.
