Released on 02.09.2022 on Molten Purple 12" and Digital - https://roho.bandcamp.com/album/elemental-ep

An elusive, anonymous producer whose veil has allowed him to build an impressive sonic identity unhindered by preconceptions, Roho has amassed a loyal following with his contributions to various Samurai compilations, his essential debut EP (Alter Ego) for Homemade Weapons ‘Weaponry’ label and the Fatum EP alongside Torn.

Long in the works, his Samurai debut solo EP - Elemental - is another peak in his ascendance. Kicking the door in with arguably his biggest track to date - the title track Elemental, the energy level is ratcheted up to overload with a procession of searing amens, pummelling kicks and pulsing mid surges. This track has been causing maximum damage in clubs and is really a time capsule display of the half-step/breaks combination that has come to be synonymous with the Samurai sound. ‘The Primal Instinct’ leans back slightly to sway and swing the edits as it rolls, while ‘Storm’ goes for the jugular again with a robust march into a winding amen lash. Torn appears to collaborate on the EP closer ‘Phase Unwrapping’ and as always, these two like minds create something special - a distortion and fast-paced kick attack with adept fills and rolling percussion.

Buried EP (Previews) LL SERIES 016 [Bandcamp]

By now a fabric of the Samurai Music sound, Tensor sees Sardinia's Last Life back for his fourth release for the label. The dive-bomb bounce of Offside opens the EP - hurling out laser-sharp mentasms over a searing groove. Elements adds pace with a driving amen tunnel, pinned down by a swaying half-step kick formation and a vocal insignia. Title track Tensor combines many of Last Life's signature talents perfectly - honed amen edits, a lush percussion loop, and kick drums sitting perfectly - a lesson in propulsion. EP closer Incubus has been receiving the most plays by DJs - a flexing groove, dripping in menace and raw power.

Last Life - Tensor EP [SMDE30] *previews*

Following on from the success of his debut EP (Fall Then Rise) for the label, we asked Eusebeia to contribute a second EP. Carving out his own place inside the Samurai Music soundscape has come effortlessly for Seb and the tracks for the Omen EP flowed quickly. EP opener Auspice is the odd one out on the EP, with sinister sonics weaving around a steady kick drum bounce absent of Seb's trademark break-work. Sparse and haunting - it sets the scene for title track Omen where Seb lays out a time capsule summation of his sonic identity - contemplative ambience, rumbling bottom end and breakbeat craftsmanship. Indicia burrows deeper into emotive territory and cuts breaks so they wrap around the plaintive melodic content. Signs and Signals is perhaps the most direct tune on the EP, but still, the undeniable power of the breaks and bass is welded to the expressive atmosphere.

Friske
DROOGS012

A. Eyes Open
AA. Violator

Release Date: 24th February 2023

Friske turns in two thugged out weapons for UVB-76’s delinquent sister label DROOGS. Normally his releases showcase his mastery of the light and dark duality of Drum & Bass with a sensei’s precision, but for DROOGS he reminds everyone that to be adept in the Yin, you need to be an accomplished champion of the Yang.

The 303 acid rhythm of “Eyes Open” slithers through the smokey underworld, a measured and methodical killer that squeezes the listener tighter and tighter in its grasp
.
“Violator” goes full Rufige with broken side steps and gooned up stabs setting up speaker knocking thuds and miscreant B Boy atmosphere.

DROOGS013 - Holsten

A. Hidden Figures
AA. Strident

Not content with already laying waste with multiple exhibitions of villainy previously on Droogs and UVB-76, Holsten returns from the depths to inflict more destruction with his latest salvos for Droogs.
“Hidden Figures” blacks out right from the top with insidious pads, phantom force knocks, filthy Reece and a reverberating clock bell that signals the witching hour is upon us.

“Strident” shoots poison darts through the tree line with cascading breakbeats, soundman call outs, more nefarious Reece sweeps and chest out Junglist bravado.
