Renegade Hardware Presents 
VOLATILE CYCLE 
‘Reaktiv LP’

Volatile Cycle, a name that is becoming firmly cemented into the upper echelons of cutting edge drum and bass is taking the scene by storm with their take on the darker end of the drum and bass spectrum. Consisting of 2 members, Dan Lawrence and James Chick, they began experimenting individually with genres such as garage and glitch hop and eventually found their niche in drum and bass. Building up their rep with a slew of releases on a number of reputable drum and bass outputs, they have worked 
their way up through the ranks to finally drop their debut LP on the seminal and beloved label Renegade Hardware. The Reaktiv LP is a masterclass in drum and music, showcasing their highly refined technical ability, yet still retaining the classic style reminiscent of the early Hardware days. Opening track ‘Wrench’ sets the tone, cutting through with razor sharp precision, whilst ‘Reckless’ and ‘Obey’ dominate the dancefloor with pulsating sub frequencies and rattling percussions. Newcomer to the scene Yen joins forces to unleash sinister undertones with ‘Forgotten Future’, whilst Russian neurofunk whizz Cod3x teams up with the duo to kill the dance with ‘Bounce. Nuklear MC puts his lyrical stamp on the track ‘Status’, a stripped back roller designed to cause maximum dancefloor damage. The Reaktiv LP is a huge milestone for Volatile Cycle. Showcasing their production chops, yet demonstrating an impressive degree of 
versatility. Volatile Cycle are set to officially make their mark and rise up to contend with the household drum and bass names. 2016 is their year and they will be taking no prisoners. The year is 2016. The year is Volatile Cycle.

Out on the 25th May 2015

Tracklisting:

1: Sub Zero - Inside the Beast 
2: Sub Zero - Straight In 
3: Sub Zero & DJ Limited - Time Traveller 
4: Sub Zero & Lucy Kitchen - Hearts on Fire 
5: Sub Zero - Backyard Skank 
6: Sub Zero - Something for the Weekend 

Sub Zero spills his guts with a smasher of an EP; opening with the huge title track 'Inside the Beast', which Friction has been supporting, followed up by 'Straight In'; a track which he confessed to Bassrush was his own Big Rewind.

'Time Traveller' is a downright dirty colab with DJ Limited and next up Sub Zero fires up the heat, joining forces with the ethereal-voiced folk singer Lucy Kitchen on 'Heart's on Fire'.

Rounding this one up is minimalist anthem 'Something for the Weekend'.

We're not sure what exactly is inside this beast, but whatever it is, we're having what he's having....

June Miller & Teddy Killerz - Wildlife

The world was a wondrous place. Technology had unlocked the skies; beings from far off planets had become new friends. The dream of utopia beckoned as humanity lifted itself towards transcendence.

Till one day, from within, they appeared. Ravenous, disfigured monsters, mad with an unquenchable lust for flesh, rampaging through villages and cities, consuming and infecting all they met with an incurable plague: the Kannibalen virus. As this tide of death spread uncontrollably, the rich fled to the stars and the visitors quarantined the planet, leaving the rest to fend for themselves. Some hid in far off wastelands, others locked themselves in walled cities, salvaging what they could to preserve what was left of civilization. Amidst the chaos, some sought profit and power: opportunists, war mongers, pirates twisted by evil; whispers spread of half-breads and mutants twisting their strings from the shadows. But hope still lived. Bands of survivors, fighting to preserve humanity and restore the world to what it was.

This is the story of one of these groups.

Viper Recordings launched their new ‘The Sound of Drum & Bass’ compilation series last year to high acclaim worldwide. Registering in at #12 in the official UK Dance Albums chart, following the 2015 edition was going be a challenging task, but Futurebound’s forward thinking label is never one to shy away from a challenging task.

With such a stacked lineup, at this point you’d think that was enough… but not when Futurebound is at the helm. Viper head honcho and A&R mastermind, Futurebound, has squeezed in 12 new unreleased Viper exclusive tracks from legends and newcomers such as: J Majik, Trei, North Base, Wickaman, Insomniax, Loko, Killer Hertz, Six Blade, Cynematic, Dossa & Locuzzed, Toronto Is Broken, NCT & Franky Nuts, Citybox, and Octo-Pi & Modify Perspective. This all wrapped up with a bonus DJ mix by the mighty Koven.

Skankandbass is dedicated towards the official promotion of record labels and artists in the world of drum & bass music. Since inception in 2010, Skankandbass has unearthed some of the freshest talents in the scene and has opened many doors for unsigned artists. Now, six years in to the game, Skankandbass decides to take on the role of a record label to put together a series of free download singles which aims to further help spread the work of the best unsigned, newcomer artists who deserve more recognition. 

SNB007 comes from newcomers Motional, a Sheffield based production duo. They have had successful releases on various labels, including C-Recordings and Diskool Records.  The duo consists of John Waldron and Freddie Greatrex, both of whom have diverse musical backgrounds, having played instruments from an early age. After meeting at university, Freddie introduced John to the sound of Drum & Bass, which quickly led to the formation of Motional. Freddie has been an established DJ since 2013, regularly playing popular dance events across Sheffield. More recently, this has allowed the duo to demo their latest music at some of the city’s biggest electronic music events and venues, including Hospitality, Valve Sound System, and The Tuesday Club. Initially focused on the lighter side of Drum & Bass, the duo are determined to develop a more experimental, bass oriented sound, whilst maintaining the rich, melodic content that lies at the heart of their productions. Enjoy!

Optiv & CZA - Sub Surface

Buy: http://www.criticalmusic.com/release/emperor-dispositions-lp/

Album release date 16th May

￼"’Dispositions’ is a piece of me, an insight into my personality. I wanted to create something that represented that and more importantly be an album that people wouldn't expect." Emperor, 2016

Having debuted his first Critical release ‘Monolith’ back in 2012 the Emperor name has bcome synonymous with some of the most breathtaking drum & bass of recent times. Since the ‘Begin EP’ and his collaborative ‘Hello World EP’ with Mejus took the scene by storm, Emperor’s heavyweight approach culminated with the utterly outrageous ‘Into Black EP’ which pushed all the levels to the max. Now ‘Dispostions’ looks set to cement his status at the top of the leader board.

“When I first heard Conor’s music I knew he had the potential to make some special records. His music has that great combination of mood and technique, combined with an ear for that killer sample and a rawness that is lost in a lot of modern production. ‘Dispositions’ as an album showcases all this in style and also his diversity as a producer with his ability to span sub genres with ease.” @kasra-critical  2016
