Leeds-based producer Krotone, takes the listener on a journey through the past, present and future of underground dance music, as he pays homage to his home city with Stranger, a 5-track EP that traverses the outer limits of UK club music. Precision engineered for RS Turbo systems and word-of-mouth basement raves, Stranger is a crowd-moving, yet intimate journey through the heart of the laser tunnel.

Stepping back into the limelight, Berlin-based producer Amy Dabbs rolls out her second EP full of captivating jungle and drum & bass rhythms with soulful uplifting harmonies, as she puts out her second release with Lobster Theremin. 

Following on from her debut with the highly acclaimed, housier Girl Like Me EP on Distant Horizons, Amy Dabbs further explores the ‘classic’ aesthetics that are associated with the very foundations of modern dance music. Allure EP comes in at around 160BPM, allowing Amy Dabbs’ tracks to ebb and flow, such that the beats have space to breathe and that the melodies can transcend beyond the music.

Opening track Allure glides around deep chord progressions and seductive vocal touches, while Second Thoughts takes on a more liquid feel, channelling a deeper emotive aura. Take It pulses with a darker intensity as the rhythms become more compact and complex, eliciting a spiritual chill and hypnotic energy. The EP concludes with a remix by 6 Figure Gang’s rave expert, Yazzus, who switches the uplifting vibes of the title track into a warped, pulsing bass-heavy juggernaut of a remix. 

‘Allure EP’ drops Friday 23rd April, via Lobster Theremin White.

4 cuts from the mythical, illustrious bootlegger Sawheadz.

Originally released on Molly Parker Records in 1998 'Don't Go' & 'Allright' are perfect examples of bootleg speed garage at it's finest. With Discogs' prices for this being £££ I hunted down the man behind them and from talking, found out there was some unreleased Sawheadz from the same era. 'Gimme That Bass' & 'Stop Playin' Games' speak for themselves.

"HIT SAMPLING OLDSKOOLISH MONSTER TRACKS" as a record store described it in 1998.

Months of conversations have led to this and I couldn't be more pleased to release this.

It's HARDLINE thru & thru.

White Label, VINYL ONLY, run of 800.

Sawheadz - Don't Go (HARD03)

While only seventeen Pìjus is one of the pillars of Lithuanian Lo-fi community. His palette of sounds and warmth of his Lo-Fi productions, transfers seamlessly to his new sound. Finally breaking the quarantine barricades in our basement studio @SinSour collective is finally ready to put the pedal to the metal with exceptional tracks.

PREMIERE : Pijus - What They Tell You

As he entered he cast his eyes around the room, taking in a mirage of flickering colours and luminous buttons. He had been travelling for what had felt like a lifetime through the dense and murky undergrowth in search of the mysterious cavern. Now as he sat perched upon the rubble he truly knew his purpose.

Hiber-nation EP was Recorded at Siesta Delfauno, Buenos Aires, Argentina in December 2019. A place steeped in history and that has seen artists like Carl Craig , DJ Hell and Rob Acid grace its halls. Ara-u worked alongside engineer and member of Argentinian electronic band Klauss Pablo Gil, while getting lost in red wine and deep into the jam amongst a mix of analogue machines. Ara-u edited the resulting takes and put together the EP : Hiber-nation

We've got your first listen of Defrostatica's forthcoming collab release by DnB dons Kiat and Digital. From Bristol to Singapore via Defrostatica's Leipzig HQ ‘Nightingale’ debuts April 16th. The Metalheadz alumni have a history of collaborating, including Kiat doing the artwork for Digital’s MetalHeadz  ‘In The Lurch’ EP, and we find them nursing their deepest creative state to date with this release. Kindred in their commitment to the craft and refusal to compromise, it's no surprise that Kiat and Digital's newest contribution, feels rooted in authenticity giving it a soulful and timeless quality every producer searches for.  Today we are excited to premiere Digital's jungle remix of Kiat's "More than One." Digital flips the ethereal vocals and alluring horns of "More Than One" with his signature bulldozer breaks and voluminous subs, real music with real soul, this whole release is a fitting salute from two totems of the DnB world.

Mr Telephones pumps up the pace, jumping drastically from his last downtempo-oriented "Point Breaks / Beach Breaks" EP. This time closing in on the 150bpm mark, with the raw pump of "Blue-Tek", a funky oddball-roller hybridizing ghettotech, detroit soul, balearic and italo house. Flip wax for the trippy soundscapey ambient techno-trip "FV555", speeding through a hazy highway, with the forest on one side, and ocean on the other. Both sides neatly wrapped up with trippy reprise-versions. Pressed at 45 for max flex!

After a thrilling first joint effort, Lobster Theremin team up with the breakbeat scientists at Globex Corp for another collaborative EP release. Stacked from top to bottom with sizzling jungle cuts from top to bottom, this one is guaranteed to heat things up!

Dwarde & Tim Reaper open things up with the airy roller Hydraulics paving the way for DJ Sports’ warped remix of one of their previously released collaborations. The rugged-yet-ethereal sounds of Richard Harrow’s Aftermath open the flip, before the breakneck Whip by Merph & Mantissa brings this to a tearout close.

‘LT-GLOBE-XX2’ drops Friday 30th April.

Malmø Traxx 002.  Dip Shim   Möllan City Breakers Ep  Preview

They floated softly upon the breeze, flowing through the forest in which wild dancers lived. These were the night time melodies, sounds which warmed the coldest hearts. He watched as people all around him listened intently to the music which echoed between the trees, looking upwards he could catch a glimpse of an occasional star which flickered and fluttered against a backdrop of thick dense black. This was a magical place and these were the sounds of the natural future. 

Alan Dixon is set to release a new EP on Love Attack and it certainly leaves us longing for the sort of warm, hedonistic nights described above. This one is destined for sun kissed stages and the close company of friends on the dance floor.

PREMIERE: Alan Dixon - Night Time Melodies [Love Attack]

Conceived in the literal underground of the INDEX:Records basement studio in Berlin, the enigmatic, new-coming “pop” group Downstairs People, is an unlikely collaborative project to be birthed from 2020 – the year of isolation. ‘Underground Pop’ is a collection of aural serotonin hits that touch the feel good receptors, genre hopping between synth-pop, house and neo-RnB. 

The group is conducted and glued together by INDEX:Record's own, Jorge Camacho, the maestro behind his alias, @vasesound. Camacho brings together a gauntlet of Berlin-based artists and INDEX: affiliates, dishing out something fresh after countless late night sessions, only to curate a serendipitously coherent record of left-field pop hits, that arrive just in time for summer.

‘Underground Pop’ by Downstairs People is out 16 April 2021 via single disk 12” LP vinyl, with full album artwork outer-sleeve and black inner-sleeve. A run of 250 copies are distributed worldwide by Rubadub and available to purchase on INDEX:Records' Bandcamp (where a limited amount are offered with a rare edition Downstairs People Zine, designed by @amos-turner).

CJ - HOLD YOUR OWN EP

From the very heart of the city, the tunnels, the tower blocks, ‘’Hold Your Own’’, the latest ‘’CJ’’ massive weapon, rises! Fully bounded into pure, mesmerizing UK classic sound, it brings an arsenal of reckless footwork gems, with a slightly and clever touch of ghetto and electro, awesomely crafted and arranged to explode any dancefloor or street corner.

With a merciless approach, CJ delivers a musical insight into the very soul of the streets,from old heavy buildings, abandoned graffiti temples to messy, rusted subways, endless mystical places portrayed in this heavy bundle of footwork, ghetto & electro blended bangers with the classic UK quality seal all over it and of course, overflowing old school fever for dancing.

‘An Increase In Entropy’ is the third and final triumphant piece in the trilogy of the 90’s Jungle / Drum and Bass flavoured releases from ASC for Samurai Music. Following on from the ‘An Exact Science’ EP and the ‘Isolated Systems’ LP, James again explores timeless motifs that have echoed through the years from their 90’s origins and brings them up to date with his intricate touches and ASC signature layers, while keeping the rawness and tempo that imbues the tunes with authenticity. James continues to re-establish himself as a 'one of a kind' producer whose skills succeed in establishing a creative peak in any style he works on.
