We can’t talk about conservation without looking at the past casualties of human actions, like the now-extinct Tasmanian tiger, or thylacine. With a dog-like appearance and striking tiger stripes, thylacines were the largest carnivores in the marsupial family and actually not related to tigers or wolves at all. They had huge teeth-filled mouths and powerful jaws that could stretch open 120 degrees, and were widely feared by European arrivals to Tasmania in the 1800s. The settlers brought sheep and cattle and believed thylacines attacked them (despite a lack of evidence). In reality thylacines were shy and mostly hunted small prey like birds and rodents. Bounties were offered for dead thylacines and thousands were killed. Finally in 1936, 59 days after the thylacine was officially declared a ‘protected species’, the last thylacine died in a zoo after being accidentally locked out in freezing temperatures overnight. No other living thylacines were ever found. It’s truly tragic that these unique animals were wiped out. We need to take action now to help save other species from extinctionand therefor all proceeds from this release will be donated to World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

Brain from Colombia is one of the most important artists of his country. Not only his releases on Dispatch Recordings or Sofa Sound and so many others show what he is capable of but he is always keeping himself busy with doing samplepacks, throwing events and supporting other artists productions. You can spot his productions from miles away and we feel blessed to have a such a good EP from him in stock. The perfect artwork for this release comes from Mimbelbi.

IAMDOOMED - Bionic (Clip from Overview Podcast S4E5)

With their captivating orange eyes and flamboyant quizzical eyebrows, eagle owls are one of the most striking birds you might encounter on the Eurasian continent. Eagle owl numbers fell drastically throughout the 20th century. Many were killed accidentally in collisions with barbed wire and electricity pylons, and seen as threats to game species (birds hunted for sport), they were often deliberately shot or poisoned. Eagle owl populations are on the up since steps have been taken to reintroduce them. Today, if you’re very lucky, you might catch sight of one in woodland areas across Europe. We need to address the damage humans have done to help eagle owls and other birds like them. That’s why we will donate all proceeds from the release to Greenpeace.

For this next release we have production outfits NordOst and Incorporate teaming up. The collabs each tell great stories and will surely be good additions to your collection of techy Drum & Bass. Artwork by Mimbelbi.

CrucifyMe - Revenant (Clip from VISION Radio S03E44)

You might not have come across this little bandit-masked songbird before. To be fair, its name doesn't exactly roll off the tongue - this is a 'Eurasian penduline tit'. Its elaborate name comes from the equally-elaborate hanging "pendant" nests they weave from animal fur, plants, wool, and spider webs. Although small, they build incredibly strong structures. Their nests can withstand winds of 80 kilometers per hour, and in the past were even made into children's slippers in parts of Europe. Right now the Eurasian penduline tit specifically isn't endangered, probably because humans don't have that much "use" for their reeded riverbank and marsh homes, but populations of other songbirds like them are suffering from habitat loss and illegal poaching. We need to safeguard the earth’s biodiversity and protect these tiny-but-mighty inhabitants. One way to do so is by donating all proceeds to Greenpeace.

Great white sharks are among the ocean’s most iconic and misunderstood creatures. Famous for their size and power, they are apex predators that play a crucial role in maintaining marine ecosystems. Great whites can grow up to 6 meters in length and are found in coastal waters around the world. They are highly migratory, sometimes traveling thousands of kilometers across open oceans. With incredible senses, including the ability to detect a single drop of blood in vast stretches of water, they are built for survival.
Despite their fearsome reputation, great white sharks face numerous threats, including overfishing, habitat loss, and the impact of climate change on ocean temperatures. These majestic animals are vital to ocean health, keeping populations of prey species in check and supporting biodiversity. To help protect these remarkable predators, we will donate all release proceeds to Ocean Conservancy to support marine conservation efforts.
