Single from the forthcoming EP:

LMajor - Can't Do It
APHA025
12" Vinyl & Digi
Released: 6th August 2021

“To make authentic Jungle you’ve got to get the breaks right sonically and LMajor does that without effort. Something in the tone of his drums really spoke to me and I knew immediately I wanted a record for Astrophonica. Authentic UKG is also all in the drums and it turns out he can do those too. Throw in some killer hooks and riffs and it’s the perfect combination - full of vibe and character” - Fracture 

‘Can’t Do It’ is raw dance floor Jungle in a drawn out and journey like fashion. They don’t make ‘em like this anymore. Incredibly fun to mix - can you do it?

Nectax - Onlookers

Settle Down made 2023 his own. And with an ever higher purpose, he strides into 2024 in his now trademark inimitable style with a proper double A 12” in the shape of ‘The Special’ and ‘Twos s On A Pack Of Ten’.
They mark the second foray on the artists newly minted label, SDWN. And they are also the first Settle Down release since his slew of debut releases last year, and signify the beginning of what’s about to be a sonic assault from a prolific and dedicated artist.
With these tracks already on dub for some time, and now finally to be released into the wild, both sides have seen heavy rotation from a who’s who of discerning DJs, featuring in a host of high profile sets, and look set to cause further damage in the near future.
2023 was quite the introduction to Settle Down. But in 2024 Settle Down is looking to raise the bar even higher, and SDWN002 is just the start of what’s to come.

BEAUTIFUL POWERFUL EXTRAORDINARY

The Young Punx – Mashpop & Punkstep: DnB Mixes

The Young Punx team up with Croatian drum & bass powerhouse Kodin to reimagine tracks from their cult 2009 album Mashpop & Punkstep through a dark DnB lens.

At the centre of the EP is “Like Dat” (feat. Count Bass D) — a tough, neuro-tinged rework that blends heavyweight low-end with occasional Blade Runner-style synth atmospheres. Bronx-born indie-rap legend Count Bass D delivers surreal, coded verses — retelling The Young Punx’s tour stories in a hybrid of Tennessee/Atlanta slang and clipped London RP — over Kodin’s cinematic production.

Also included is Kodin’s reinvention of the ragga-tinged “Juice and Gin”, the remix that first caught The Young Punx’s ear and sparked the whole collaboration. His distinctive sound design and uncompromising grooves push the track into deeper, futuristic territory.

To complete the package, Phonat’s Punkstep Mix of “Ready For The Fight” is included — a rock-meets-drum & bass collision driven by distorted guitars, perfectly reflecting the culture-clash ethos of the original album. Previously released, it’s included here to round out the DnB collection.

Visuals for the release come from Dutch artist Han Hoogerbrugge, whose typographical chaos of lyrics set against pixelated sea creatures and cityscapes offers a uniquely abstract response to the music.

NEST HQ premiere: nesthq.com/nucleus-and-paradox-12-bits-mako-breakout-remix-premiere

Available here: bit.ly/WrathEP

Nucleus & Paradox have always been a worthy pairing and their next release for Metalheadz, which is split into 2 parts, once again proves it. Their 2005 single on the label is switched up across both parts, with ’12 Bits’ getting a Mako remix whilst the duo themselves present a new take on ‘Aragon’, bringing a fresh spark to the original.

The two remaining tracks on the EP are originals, with both showcasing exquisite breaks and twisted basslines throughout. Artwork from Vodker completes the ‘Wrath EP’ package.

Nucleus & Paradox - 12 Bits (Mako's Breakout Rmx) [NEST HQ PREMIERE]

Smooth N Groove Records have saved the best till last, ending out the year with the much hyped 'Joy & Pain' EP by top shelf producer Madcap. The EP has been receiving heavy support from some of drum and basses top players, including Randall, LTJ Bukem, Makoto and Velocity to name a few.

Since the early 90's Madcap has been heavily involved within the Drum & Bass scene, primarily as a DJ touring up and down the UK before trying his hand at music production. Since his first release in 2006 on Nookies label, Phuzion and later the legendary Good Looking Records, Madcap has continued to master his distinctive sound to the high quality we hear today. Over the years his fan base has grown rapidly, placing him in high demand amongst co-producers wanting to collaborate alongside him or labels wanting a release. His back catalogue continues to grow and he has seen releases on Fokuz, Celcius, Jazzsticks, a recent vinyl release on Soul Deep and his track 'Rain' featured on Randall's LP Pieces 2.

2017 has been a busy year for Madcap and he is ending it out strong. The 'Joy & Pain' EP shows his experience as a producer and why he is considered one of the greats within the scene. The EP is influenced by both sides of the musical spectrum. From the deeper moods of 'String Puppet' to the more soulful, bass booming and highly addictive vibes of 'Joy'. The EP continues to progress and gets better and better, notably the amazing vocals and steppy drum patten in 'Pray' to the wicked rolling vibes of 'Traits'. This EP is by far one of, if not his best solo work to date.

“Been in the game for a long time. Fantastic DJ , consistently writing quality tracks” - LTJ Bukem

In stores 30th December!!!

Arkaik - Speed Era

Stream/Download: https://SGN.lnk.to/DangerousSP

After stepping into the light with their previous single, ZeroZero are chanting from the darkness this time with 'Dangerous' - a trawling track, dredging up otherworldly sounds from the abyss. 

With nimble drumwork made to make you move and low end treading treacherous ground, 'Dangerous' is a menacing tune bubbling with finesse and cunning. ZeroZero are firing off warning shots with this one. You'd best stand up and take note!
