Premiere: A2 - Occibel - Let It Roll [RLD001]

Rolling into 2023 like a flying Delorean, we start the year with the grand unveiling of our 1st ever compilation album.

Over the past few months we have been pondering how to go about this with one aim in mind. How do we showcase the very best of what we have done the
past few years while also giving you a taster of the future?

The answer well we literally could not leave a single track or release out, as there was just way too much original music we have thrown out into the
Neurofunk `Slappersphere` to even contemplate missing just 1 track that has graced the labels catalogue.

So here it is, every single track from the Almighty Beast right up to the latest dancefloor destroying Here 2 Invade. and everything in between with some of the most talented and inspirational producers from around the world we have had the pleasure to work with, such as Resurgence, Mbee, Scalez, Kaizen Flow, Surgence, Binary, Transforma and of course the co-owner of the label Traced.

As if that was not enough, 3 newer talents that we had discovered In 2022 make their debut on the label before we see them all release individually in the near future.

We introduce to you, UK artists `Bad Ace` & `The Fi5th` and our first Northern Ireland producer onboard with us `Avoider` who more recently has come off 2 huge back to back releases on Dirtbox Recordings & Abducted in the past few months.

`Bad Ace drops one of the hardest and nastiest Neuro tracks to date on the label. “Reign” The hieroglyphical and egyptian sounds echo throughout a building of drums and bass on this one. Enough to shake any pyramid to its
core. and crumble any mummy to dust. Its about time we brought some balls to wall slappers for you lot and this does not disappoint.

`The Fi5th` debuts with a very funky number thats been doing the sounds.
“Jump Funk” this one takes so many musical elements from multiple genres its hard to pin point what will happen next. But you can be assured this little groover takes you straight to the dancefloor every time its heard.

And finally `Avoider` brings out a track with a hugely fitting name `Piston` which sounds as though it would literally power a car itself let alone a whole rave full of gurning Neuro lovers. Avoider has a very eclectic sound so much different than anyone else and we love it because it crosses over so well
from Neuro to almost every other style of DNB you want it to fit with.

A name we thought only fitting to give this humongous project could only be “Chapter I” . It's our first instalment of our history and one we will be building on for many years to come. Its a story of the punk side of Drum & Bass and what both Lee UHF & Traced see in terms of a vision of what a story within Neurofunk should sound like.

History will be made March 1st 2023 Chapter I opens.

VTO Records Podcast 4- Featuring Scalez, Neuroheadz + More (Hosted by Lee UHF)

One thing that we have been quite persistent on with Dirtbox Recordings, Is that we want to bring you fresh music constantly and only remix tracks when it is time, And the time IS NOW!

Only our 2nd deep dive into this territory and we are positive this one has been worth the wait.

We selected 2 tracks from one of our OG artists on the label the one and only Traced and his debut with us “The Time Is Now” to get the remix treatment from 2 of our favourite producers from over the years. `Xtronx` hailing from Paris, France. And `Just Breathe` Sunny, Surrey UK.

`Xtronx` has shined brightly in the French Neurofunk DNB scene over the years with his twisted collaboration of Drum & Bass and Metal sounds all topped off with a high octane sprinkling of scenic energy. 
The hard work he has put in has seen the fruits of his labour pay dividends by getting himself signed to `Chateau Bruyant Records` and seen him garner support from the legendary Level Zero and
Zardonic.

And from what he have recently learned this will be the final release under his current Xtronx name but new music on the horizon under a new moniker `Just Breathe` Hailing from Surrey, UK has followed a
much more different path though, building up his CV with not only Drum & Bass but House music too.

Make no mistake about it, Sam (to his friends) Lives and (Just) Breathe’s music, as if he is not putting together the next big rave banger. He is composing music for freelance work and writing for the likes of Movies and TV. Which has given Sam the the skills needed to bring an epic piece of art to any release he puts his hands to.

“The Time Is Now” (Xtronx Remix)

Without further ado let's dive straight into the music.

Xtronx’s take on this Dirtbox classic takes all the right elements you love from the original and like any great remix ads exactly what is needed to bring it to the present while also encompassing his stamp onto the release.

Epic movie-esque synths bring you into the familiar vocal before a sledgehammer is dropped to bring you huge drums to turn this from a funky Neuro number. Into an all out onslaught on the senses and
a chugging death metal beat before again bringing in the original sounds we all know and love from the original

“The Time Is Now” (Just Breathe Remix)

Just Breathe strolls into his debut for the label with confidence in his production and takes on the Traced banger like he knew all along he would be remixing it.

This one has been going off in sets to the lucky few playing it since last summer and now its finally time to unleash it to the masses.

You want Guitars. Check. You want a roller. Check.

You want to tear out dancefloor drum & bass with the hint of  Neurofunk goodness? Double check.

This remix can do no wrong. It's literally blown up every dancefloor it had the pleasure of hitting, and now The time is now for you to do the same.

The Time Is Now Remixes are available to buy & stream March 24th 2023

@cyntaxdnb

`Cyntax` or Ollie Kaye (to his friends and family) is a name you may be familiar with if you have heard of this little underground sound we call `Neurofunk`

Hailing from Essex, UK and coming from a background of music, Ollie was playing instruments regularly like the Piano, guitar and trumpet before taking his first leap into session music by recording his own songs at home in his bedroom that were a little on the questionable side to say the least.

It wasn't until attending University in Bristol that he discovered the sounds of drum and bass, starting with Jump Up and then being drawn into the darkside once discovering the likes of Eatbrain at the Qube Project in London.

As with most stories like this, a natural progression into Djing soon brought him full circle and producing music again but this time fully digital, and engrossed himself in sound design to discover his sound.

Now what you would expect next when reading this is a long, arduous 10 years of producing music, some questionable early tracks on labels you might not have ever heard of.

Not in this case. Cyntax had his first release hit some of the biggest labels putting out Neurofunk right from the get go, His early years of music has paid dividends as 2017 saw his debut on the mighty `Kill Tomorrow` label following this up with tracks on `Korsakov`, `High Resistance`, `Neurofunk, What Else?` and the huge `Blackout Music` which in most opinions is one of the top Neurofunk labels ever to release.

Reaching a pinnacle label so quick was not easy by any feet, but also did not leave Cyntax wondering what to do next, as he followed these up by winning a remix competition on Zombie Cats and another pinnacle label release on the mighty Eatbrain in 2022.

As we ride the wave of success right into 2023 it is with great pleasure VTO Records introduce Cyntax to our stable and his first release of 2023.

Cyntax- “Your Time Is Now”

We start this release with one of the most talked about dubplates of 2022 in the Neurofunk world, It's finally here.

This one was performed at last year’s `Let It Roll` festival during the Zombie Cats set and caused quite a stir and it's finally here for you all to get your teeth into.

An eerie but haunting movie-esque intro starts this one sounding like it came right out of a DC movie when the bad guys are about to beat down Bruce Wayne.

Its almost silent as we stop for the first drop. Drum Solo and Cyberpunk synths show off Cyntaxs music background with a huge lightning bolt of sonics taking us right into the next section in a huge way.

A robotic but evil vocal snippet lets you know “Your time is now” as the onslaught never lets up with this superb routine on display right from the Cyntax studio.

Be wanted if you haven't heard the second drop. Make sure you’re sitting for this one. 

Cyntax- “Darkness Surrounding”

We round the EP off with yet another huge Cyntax dub that people have been clambering to get hold of for the past year.

Kicking things off we get a little groovy, A little warpy and a lotta funky.
Our vocalist takes the lead on this one before the epic build to take us to a grinding halt and a huge wallowing bass slap.

The galloping percussion and drums throughout this one has that super dancefloor feel but the contrast in the bass makes you feel the `hard as nails` sound right throughout your body.

A huge release for us at VTO and taking us right into the QTR mark of the year with exceptional talent during potentially one of his last ever DNB releases.
