FKOF Premiere!

Lacuna's track, 'Proto Nucleya,' brings back those iconic 2007 wobble basslines. A deceptively gripping melody pulls you into controlled chaos, while minimal percussion flows effortlessly through the mix—making it a perfect closing track to wrap up the vibe!

@moshinoofficial's debut album, Eternal Bonds, is a heartfelt tribute to his dog Ambra, blending Eastern spirituality with Kabbalistic themes to explore the enduring bond between humans and animals. 

It's a lovely composition of ethereal soundscapes and rhythmic elements, where each track reflects a specific Sefirah, embodying divine attributes that guide the listener through emotions of gratitude, love, loss and remembrance.

We happily feature "Chokmah," a track off the album and the 34th release on @soundinpicture. Label owner Yavor's refined taste for futuristic, bass-driven music shines through in the FKOF Promo of MOSHINO's talent.

FKOF Promo!

It’s been over fifteen years since we launched FKOF, and we're not far off celebrating FKOF Records' – our physical and digital imprint – fifteenth birthday, too. Although we've slowed our release cadence from the monthly efforts of our heyday, we're still here and still working with impeccable musicians. Even if we say so ourselves – and if you don't believe us, we'll let FKOFd061 do the talking…

FKOFd061 is available via our bandcamp rn, from 25/07/25 onwards. It's then available at Beatport two weeks after, 08/08/24, and on general release two weeks after that, 22/08/25.

1. Atsuko - We're Different
2. Atsuko - So
3. Atsuko - Those Who Seek
4. Atsuko - So (S0LID remix)

‘The early to mid 2010s were golden years for experimental 140bpm material. It was the era dubstep had established itself, and was evolving into the multi-layered, all-encompassing genre it continues to be today. 2013 also saw both FatKidOnFire (with our FKOF Free Downloads and FKOF mixes) and the nascent FKOF Records start to find their groove. As is often the case, some decade plus later, we're still finding the music that excited us all those years ago. So much so, we've tapped a producer we've had in the extended FKOF fam for our first digital outing in over a year...

‘FKOFd061 formally welcomes Atsuko to the FKOF Records family after his debut 'FKOF' EP all those years ago (and, ICYMI, you can grab the free downloads in the links below). We're also stoked to welcome the sonic troublemaker S0LID to the record with one of the weightiest remixes we've had the pleasure of homing. Much like the tunes that first caught our attention in the 2010s, Atsuko's continued to hone his sound and provides ample summary of why we rate him with his release. 'We're Different' stutters into consciousness with chopped vocal samples, crisp percussive power and a real groove. Track two, 'So', dials up the low end and has soundtracked many a nighttime journey since we signed it. Lovely stuff. 'Those Who Seek' strips things back to the basics with its seamless beats, bass and space approach. Not to be outdone, S0LID joins proceedings with his 'So' remix as EP closer. It's a monster. Not much else to say! 
‘We've rated Atsuko since we first discovered him in 2012/13. Stoked to pull a record together, and have S0LID involved as well. We hope you rate the tunes, we do!'

Back at it again with the latest EP from our friends from Brno; @semfree - and our 250th FKOF Premiere! This time we've a heavyweight tune featuring the sounds of @seekidentification and @korode, featuring vocals from Ethics. 

'Six Feet Deep' and 'Depth Charge' on the flip drop this coming Friday, 01/08/25. Hit the buy link to pre-order from the label's bandcamp shortly.

"'Six Feet Deep' pairs seek:id and Korode’s rhythmic tension and bassweight with a vocal feature from Ethics, whose bars cut through the mix with focus and intent. The track blends minimal drums, sub pressure, and dark atmosphere. 'Depth Charge' sees seek:id go solo—low-slung and spacious, with gritty mids and rolling percussion. Drawing from South London influence, the release sits in the deeper end of dubstep, tuned for sound system play."

"'Higher Ground' builds around a deep sub bass foundation and richly-layered instrumentation. Wends delivers both a soaring, heartfelt chorus and a rhythmic, fast-paced verse, a blend of soulful vocal and sharp MC delivery that speaks to her unique style and presence on the mic. This is a song with weight, built to connect on a deeper level, whether you are locked in on headphones or at the front of a dance."

The release then surfaces via all other digital retailers 26/09/25. 

Track list:

1. Clearlight - Cavern Sound
2. Split - Fever Mood (Khromi Remix)
3. Mikrodot - Monastery
4. Tetrad - Wyatt
5. Boneless - Sutures
6. Repulsion - VRR
7. Buex & No Compli - Ghosts Of Spice
8. Intertia - Nobody
9. Split - Outcry
10. NRB - Wide Open

"ADM Selections is back to deliver some heavy hitting tracks by artists you may or may not be familiar with from all across the globe.

"Opening the LP, we welcome Clearlight to the label with the track "Cavern Sound." With almost tribal-like vibes, a haunting atmosphere and drums that take you on a journey. Khromi's remix of "Fever Mood" is smooth, jazzy and infused with his own style. Mikrodot's Monastery paves the way into deep sub driven vibes with Tetrad and newcomer, Boneless carrying the vibe into darker and deeper territory. Repulsion's "VRR" takes the mood of the compilation into darker territory as it flips between breakbeats and minimalist influences. Newcomers Buex & No Compli balance floaty textures of atmosphere with jungle influenced breakbeats in their track "Ghosts Of Spice". While Inertia changes the direction of the album with his track "Nobody" featuring a massive, thick reverberating subline with a distorted Reese, it segues nicely into the album closing tracks by Split and NRB finishing out the album on a more aggressive and heavy feeling. This album explores the broad sound on After Dark Music."
