Radini - What Spice

After five years of planning, writing, and refining their sound, London-based production duo Kolectiv are set to release their long-awaited debut drum & bass album, Circadian Rhythms.

The project began in the aftermath of the pandemic, when the pair started setting aside tracks that captured the spirit of a night out at a drum & bass event. Their vision was clear: to create an album that reflects the variety, energy, and progression of a rave – from the first beats that pull you into the closing sounds that carry you home.

“Going out to drum & bass nights, you’d hear so many different flavours across six or seven hours. We wanted the album to follow that same arc – like a circadian rhythm, a natural flow of time, but in this case the cycle of a rave,” Kolectiv explain.

To achieve this, the duo placed a strong emphasis on originality and sound design. Most of the album was built from scratch using their own recorded samples, crafted through sessions with keys, drums, and guitars, and only dipping into external sources when absolutely necessary. Vocal collaborations from PAV4N, Hijak MC, Illmatika and Kerry Donnelly add unique flavour to the project, while carefully placed interludes tie the project together as a complete listening experience.

“This isn’t just a collection of tracks. We wanted it to be a journey – a cradle-to-grave kind of experience – with highs, lows, and moments to breathe.”

The title Circadian Rhythms captures that intention perfectly: an audio diary of a night spent immersed in drum & bass culture, told through Kolectiv’s trademark blend of technical precision and emotional depth.

The project also coincided with a complete studio overhaul, giving Kolectiv a fresh environment to finalize and mix down the record with a renewed sense of clarity and focus.

With Circadian Rhythms, Kolectiv deliver more than an album – they present a story, an atmosphere, and a tribute to the music and culture that shaped them.

Hacked

After nearly eight years away, Lady EMZ makes a powerful return to DNBB Records. Teaming up with the duo Acronik, she delivers a refined yet heavy Liquid Drum and Bass, where deep basslines and sharp beats intertwine perfectly with her unmistakable voice. The lyrics add depth and emotion, reminding us why Lady EMZ has always been one of the most respected voices in the genre. This release is more than a comeback — it’s a statement of presence, marking the beginning of a new chapter. And the best is yet to come: throughout 2025, Lady EMZ has two more releases lined up on DNBB, reaffirming her place in the scene.

Well, this is the fifth release I have so far done with Mr. Majestic aka the don papa Ellis Dee. And I know this won’t be the last either! This guy has been at the forefront of the rave scene since its inception and is still out there (covid aside) plying his skills to new generations. And as a bit of an Ellis Dee fanboy from when I was just a teenager, its always is and will always be an honour to work with him and to give his awesome tunes from back in the day the opportunity to shine again on the format that made them what they are; vinyl.

But what the hell do we talk about this time? I mean, we have covered so much of his history in previous interviews, charting his rise to success, and his nimble ability to travel through genres, keeping himself at the forefront of up and coming scenes. I mean, when myself and Roy finally met, it was at a breaks gig in 2003 and he was creating some proper bangers within that genre! But for this interview, we are covering the era when Roy was stamping his place within the jungle and early drum and bass scene. His transition from the old skool was via his alias Norty But Nice (repressed recently on Vinyl Fanatiks) which brought his upbeat rave vibes and blended them with the jungle riddims that were blowing up around London, especially around this birth place in the east of the city.

This release wasn’t his first foray into the jungle scene proper, that came via his White House release ‘One For The Ladies/You Got To Believe’ in early 1994 alongside the original release of ‘Big Up Your Chest’, which was a successful  tune for him at the start of the year. He wanted to give that tune a relick and to add another ragga vibed track on the flipside, as Roy recalls “’Big Up’ was a popular tune for me back then, one I use to play often in my sets. The release did really well, so I just thought I should capitilise upon that sound and add something else on the flipside that had a similar vibe. I’ve always tried to produce stuff that was a bit different to what other people were playing. I always thought about my DJ sets when I made tunes. I wasn’t thinking about the other producers when I made music. I was thinking of other DJ’s and how I could stand out against the competition”.
