Where You Been (Broken Promise EP)

Tactic - Where You Been (Broken Promise EP on Neurosense Audio)

"When Dawn Breaks" is a testament to RIFT's potential and a promising addition to the drum and bass landscape. Its fusion of funk influences with the cold roller style offers a refreshing take on the genre. As RIFT continues to refine his sound, tracks like this position him as an artist to watch in the coming years.

Stage B by Paperclip, released on Paperfunk Recordings, marks a new chapter in Pavel's personal narrative. Whereas Stage A saw him delve deep into the realms of his inner world, Stage B finds Pavel decisively moving forward, reshaping his internal landscape anew.

This music serves as an auditory portrait of transformation and inner upgrade. The musician reevaluates familiar reference points and discovers previously unknown aspects of himself, expressed through fresh, sometimes unexpected musical forms. Like pages from a diary, each melody narrates stories from Pavel’s life, sharing with listeners his journey toward balance and harmony—capturing that pivotal moment when old structures cease to serve and new ones begin to emerge.

Stage B resonates as a diary of personal evolution, with each track symbolizing a small step towards a renewed self. Here, there's no fracture or pain, only the strength of acceptance and clarity of vision. Pavel Paperclip invites us to witness his journey, allowing the music to communicate when words run out and sincere expression begins.

Renegade Hardware SoundCloud Sessions 002 - Mixed by Casper Levy

Artist: Cause4Concern
Release: Phatcap (TRCD Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK088
Support:

Originally dropping back in 1999 on C4C Recordings, “Phatcap” has long been a staple of the neuro-heavy DnB scene. Now, TRCD injects the timeless drum loops and iconic bassline with a modern twist, honoring the original's spirit while giving it a fresh energy.

TRCD begins by resurrecting the rolling, punchy kick/snare combo that defined the original. From there, he refines the groove with crisp, meticulously layered hi-hats and sub-divided ghost snares. The result is a relentless, dancefloor-ready rhythm that jolts the track into 2025 territory.

That unmistakable sub-bass from the original remains intact—but TRCD enhances it with more punch and depth. Subsonic rumble underpins the rework, and occasional mid-range growls slide in, adding weight to the restructuring’s low-end.

Here's a clever cut & paste job I've done with the Alien Girl remix on youtube. I've sampled parts of it and made it into a full track! I do not own the rights to this track nor did I originally make it. It's just a cut & paste job! I will definately be dropping this next time I play though! ;)
