Worldwide release: 7th July 2014

Critical keeps the fire burning from all angles as it introduces its brand new offshoot label series, Systems. Picking up from where the Modulations imprint left off, this new string of lovingly crafted releases will bring together music from across the electronic music spectrum from some of the most gifted of artists: beginning with Halogenix, one third of sublime production outfit, Ivy Lab.

About Systems:
"I love the idea of a series of releases, a chain made up of musical links released over a period of time then brought to a close. With Modulations I always meant for it to be like this, music that stands tall on its own but also as part of the Critical family. Systems is the next phase in this series." Kasra - Critical Music CEO

Halogenix - Her Waves

Philth and Collette Warren - Back In Time

Ahmad - Intaference LP (ARXLP004)  - Release Date – 16th Feb 2015
After a number of well received remixes and collaborations, Architecture reveals the ace they have quietly been keeping stashed up their sleeve,  the debut artist album from Ahmad.  Little is known about this mysterious new producer other than the music he puts out.  Shrouded in anonymity, social media profile free, Ahmad makes his presence felt where it matters, on the dance floor.
The "Interference" LP marks a statement of intent from Ahmad, putting Drum & Bass on notice that a new, faceless talent has arrived to impose his sparse, echo chambered audio vision on the scene.  Channeling the sonic tradition of Photek with the spine tingling brooding darkness of a Space Odyssey, Ahmad turns in 11 cuts of futuristic, 170 bpm cosmic dub, designed to help your conscience drift away to a higher plane
All the tracks feature Ahmad's take on the minimal, kick drum led tribal stomp that has been captivating the drum & Bass realm recently, but peppered with his own distinctively adept sense of percussive texture and tension building atmospherics.  Reverberated rim shots, wood blocks, metallic crashes and samurai drums woven throughout the body of work give each track a unique rhythmic variation, making the tracks equally as engaging listening on headphones as they are on a large rig, where their punishing low frequency hum will churn out your belly.  Slight nods to Jungle's heritage creep their smoked out  heads through the beats as the faintest chops of classic breaks make perfectly timed appearances, while dubbed out vocal snips evoke screwface  gun finger signals to the sky, acting as a balance to the constant head nod sway.  The collaborations on this album represent a who's who of Ahmad's influences and contemporaries as Loxy, Gremlinz, Genotype, Kobra and Mental Forces all make multiple appearances,  creating a truly all star project for fans of the brand of forward moving Drum & Bass that Architecture Recordings and these artist's all stand at the forefront of.  A truly inspiring collection from an artist who is only just beginning to hit his stride.  Make sure that you keep the name "Ahmad" right at the top of your list of producers to buy on sight.

Kingston Sound (feat. Mental Forces & Kobra)

Ahmad - Intaference LP  - kingston sound feat. mental forces & kobra

Two years after the album “Identity” comes a single with remixes of two of the album tracks.

This remix is by Blu Mar Ten. This remix of “Too much too soon” is as beautiful as you would expect from Blu Mar
Ten. The track has been put in to laid back mode without loosing the pace.

This London producer sure knows how to switch it up. Just as capable as making a jumpy drum 'n' bass banger as he is a buttery smooth crooner, Halogenix is definitely one for differentiating.

It's work like the 'Raya VIP' and 2013's 'Each His Own' that bring out his savage side, but listen to 'Her Waves' from the 'Critical Presents: System 001' and you'll know exactly what we mean about him making crystalised soothers.
