Enjoy these deep, dark, heavy, minimal tunes I’ve been curating in this playlist

Minimal DnB

Historically, society has always needed one form of tonic or another. Tonics invigorate, restore, refresh and stimulate; much like this group of rising stars with their eyes on the prize. We’ve trawled some of the finest up & coming UK talent that the scene has to offer and hand-picked 6-tracks to kick start our brand new VA series of EPs in ‘Tonics: Batch 1’.

Kicking off proceedings and returning for her first release on the imprint since the ‘Summer Soul EP’ in 2018, we gladly welcome back London producer Dushi, with a jazzy number titled ‘Lost In The Waves’. We’re greeted with wonderfully wide, warm strings and an almost Middle Eastern soundscape in the intro, followed by an uplifting, orchestral-style drop - complete with progressive, jungle percussion. 

London native Lally is second up to the plate, with a sun drenched, rolling scorcher titled ‘All The Time’ - a palpable amen dream of tumbling sub, twinkling bells and lush, longing vocals. This track marks his first official release, and if this is anything to go off, we’ll be seeing a lot more of him! 

Dorset resident & new kid on the block Vektah undoubtedly delivers on the title with his track ‘Request’. The tune opens with luscious, swirling synths which fast descend into honks of incoming bass, jungle breaks and ragga vocals which will almost certainly have you shouting at your nearest DJ, demanding them to “run it”.

Makah’s ‘Crest’ rides in like a seasoned surfer, the intro rhythmically building tension with bubbling textures and washing synths amid swinging yet techy breaks, screeches and boundless bass. The second debut on the project, this accomplished first outing means this Cornwall-born composer is definitely one to watch for 2021.  

The third and final newcomer is Brighton boy Silloh and his debut ‘Strange Matter’. The track opens with cascading, shimmering chimes and a slight air of unease. The drop kicks like a mule, boasting roaring grunts of bass, high velocity drums; all of which are sure to evoke some downright evil expressions in the rave! 

Finally, Manchester’s own Motiv calls for last orders with the deceptively titled ‘Crave’ a deep, warm hug of a half time tune. Complete with wide, wobbling pads and clicking percussion wrapped in hypnotic vocals, you’ll no doubt long to hear this track, like some sort of uncontrollable urge.

So get your orders in for 6 doses of the finest effervescent d&b that money can buy, and raise a glass to the next batch of bubbling talent, pouring into all good stores on the 21st of May 2021.

K Motionz & Simula - Flex

Techy, crisp, and tailor-made for the dancefloor; London-based Sustance and his finely-polished sound have emerged as one of drum and bass' most exciting prospects: https://Sustance.lnk.to/SnakesVilliansSD

Returning to the forefront for the first time since the release of his 'Quasi' EP on Shogun Audio last year, Sustance links up with Manchester-based rapper T-Man to serve up 'Snakes & Villains', a raucous offering that's about to unleash bedlam on dancefloors worldwide.

Combining ludicrous basses, razor-sharp drums, and no-nonsense lyricism that shows off T-Man's ice-cold flow and expert delivery in all its glory, 'Snakes & Villains' is set to become a favourite weapon in the arsenal of DJs far and wide.

Back to Basics

Off the back of his debut Space Invaders EP last year, we're excited to welcome Onyx Recordings regular Hoax back to the label with his next EP, Crowd Control.

Featuring four tracks of pure energy ready to tear up any dancefloor, including a wobbly roller in "Nebula" and a touch of future bass in "Promise Me", we guarantee you'll be able to find a DJ weapon of choice within this EP.

Since first releasing with Onyx, Hoax has become a label favorite with our listeners, and we're stoked to be putting him b2b with fellow Onyx mainstay Invert Era at our Lightbox London event on September 24th. Come down and witness Hoax's crowd control skills in action!

If you feature any of these tracks in a mix or elsewhere, we'd love to hear. Please drop us a line or let us know in your feedback.
