Canis x Sirius debut on Vibe City with Liquid DnB Heater ‘Cold Ways’ A Festival Season Finale Like No Other!

As we proudly welcome back one of the most exciting duos in Drum & Bass: Canis x Sirius. 

Their brand new EP, ‘Cold Ways’, drops this August as a four-track masterclass in emotionally charged, atmospheric DnB that’s built to close out festival season in unforgettable fashion.

Canis x Sirius first made waves in late 2024 with their standout appearance on the Vibe City compilations under Dirtbox Recordings, a moment that helped spark the idea for Vibe City to evolve into a full-fledged label. 

Their cinematic sound, blending deep rolling grooves with emotive melodies, immediately resonated with fans and DJs alike. 

Fast forward to 2025, and the father-son duo have gone from strength to strength. Following the release of two highly-praised solo EPs on Dirtbox earlier this year, UKF took notice, sitting down with the pair for an intimate Father’s Day feature that explored their journey as a family carving out a name in the ever-evolving DnB landscape.

Now, with their third EP of the year, Canis x Sirius return to where it all began, delivering a project that embodies the heart of the Vibe City mission: rich, melodic, and forward-thinking Liquid Drum & Bass.

A nod to their roots, and a bold step into the next chapter of their rise.

Canis X Sirius “Cold Ways” lands August 15th exclusively on Beatport & Spotify before worldwide release 2 weeks later.

In her EP Separation, released on Paperfunk Recordings, RiANTHE transposes the very notion of separation into sound: a tight kick-drum thump ticks off the seconds of an expanding rift, a dense bass line pulses like blood retreating from shared memories, and gauzy synth layers slowly shear apart, leaving a transparent corridor of silence where you can hear a new identity crystallising from the shards of former closeness; the music does not merely illustrate detachment—it inhabits it, revealing how an act of separation widens the space to breathe, and how, in that sonic pause between “we” and “I,” it finally becomes possible to hear one’s own echo.

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.

Aton - Two Villains

In the Freedom EP, Blinded Theory together with NERV3 and 9THWAVE explore a kind of freedom that doesn’t always lead toward the light. Here, it’s the moment when the cage inside bursts open and the long-hidden beasts and shadows break free. Each track is a step down a narrow corridor where the walls vibrate under the pressure of the bass, and the rhythm tears through space like claws against steel.

This freedom doesn’t sound like a promise of peace, but like the instant you stop fearing your own monsters and let them speak for you. Melodies intertwine with dense percussion, building a pressure that grows until inner chaos transforms into an energy powerful enough to destroy everything around it.

Paperfunk Recordings present an EP where liberation is not about escape, but about facing head-on what has always lived within you.



Blinded Theory - Quintessence

Cat No: EVOC073
Artist: @ReceptorMusic x @engage
Title: ‘Surgeon’
Release Date: 10th October 2025
Record Label: Evolution Chamber

Few names carry the weight and innovation of Receptor, a producer long regarded as one of Drum & Bass’s most forward-thinking figures since his debut in 2008. As one of the founding members of Evolution Chamber, his influence has been cemented through ground-breaking solo works and collaborations that consistently raise the bar. Among those partnerships, his creative synergy with Engage has stood out for its intensity and precision, yielding tracks like Bio, Wi-Fi Waves, and Gothic. Now, a decade later, the pair return to the fold with their latest creation - “Surgeon.”

From its opening, Surgeon sets an unsettling tone with eerie pads and delicate hats, laying the groundwork for a sense of tension and intrigue. The track quickly develops with a phone-dial motif and thudding bass kicks, before dropping into an eruption of sharp snares and gritty, protruding bass stabs that cut through the mix with precision. Razor-edged FX and meticulous detail carry the momentum forward, making each bar bristle with energy.

Just when the pressure becomes overwhelming, the breakdown offers a brief reprieve before the track surges forward again into a second drop, this time with an even sharper bite. Clear-cut drums, rigorous low-end weight, and driving rhythms give Surgeon a raw and uncompromising edge, all while keeping an underlying sense of unpredictability that keeps the energy alive until the very end.

What makes this release stand out is how both Receptor and Engage take centre stage, and effortlessly combine their unique approaches: Receptor’s reputation for forward-thinking production and Engage’s trademark grit and precision. Together, they have created a track that reinforces Evolution Chamber’s reputation as a label committed to originality, creativity, and artistry within the Drum & Bass sphere.

The name Katharsys derives from ‘an extreme change in emotion that results in renewal, restoration and revitalization’. And after one listen to the forthcoming LP sampler which French producers Hugo and Tom have been crafting in sonic solitude, you’ll understand why they chose this namesake. Following the start of their journey together in 2001, the duo began producing their very first drum & bass tracks. Inspired by the likes of Tech Itch, Kemal, Konflict and other heavyweight bass legends from across the darker end of the spectrum, the outfit have followed the same ethos. And that’s to transpose the primal instinct of Catharsis into every record.

Whether it’s Neurofunk or Darkstep, Katharsys have turned their hands to every sub-genre, across a wide variety of labels. Imprints such as Barcode, Obscene, Future Sickness and Guerilla have grown the pair from strength to strength, increasing their notoriety whilst helping to push them throughout the European club scene. And for their next offering, the renowned Othercide Records have given them a platform, an imprint which will release their second LP and further solidify their place as underground tastemakers.

Family Pack - Cause4Concern Label Night

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.
