Make It Worth - Alix Perez ft Rashad & Spinn

Basic Rhythm - Blood Of The Gods (MN012)

Bandcamp: fanu.bandcamp.com/album/ether-subblp04

'Ether' is the tenth full length album by Finnish breakbeat mastermind Fanu. With a career that spans three decades, 'Ether' is a testament to the multiple styles and tempos he is known for: jungle, drum and bass, hip hop, and much more. Built around hard-hitting drum and bass beats, the album is sprinkled with lush melodies, cinematic soundscapes, and a tiny bit of inspiration from his all-time favorite series, Twin Peaks.

new friends and familiar faces. this compilation is a continuation of the labels pursuit to demonstrate a personal and recognisable sound. vol.2 welcomes back previous artists from our first ep, and is excited to introduce many new names to our second edition. functional without convention, this compilation is the result of our desire to forever refine - driven by the sounds and stories that surround us in this city.

each track is purposefully selected to shape this ep; a meticulous display of experimentation, each offering a unique perspective of club culture through leftfield bass, uk techno, post dubstep, dancehall and more...

> thank you to all contributing artists <

this highly anticipated second release captures the essential being of the rubber works label, and the spirit and ability that each artist holds in their contribution to this ep. we're incredibly honoured to have unearthed debuts and further releases from the artists showcased here - as always, this wouldn't have been possible without them.

**KMAG PREMIERE**

Read the review here https://kmag.co.uk/premiere-on-the-cutting-edge-with-kuttin-edge-preview-the-innovative-new-ep-from-hamburgs-vibemaster-general-playmusic/  thanks to Layla Marino.

Polyrhythmic arpeggios, swirling delays, unstable harmonic structure, and chromatic movement form a tense, shifting progression. The track is built around a single bell sample and reshaped through layering, modulation, subtle changes in texture, and filtered transitions. A techno stepper.

Astrophonica is proud to present Gradients Vol. 2.

The second in the Gradients compilation album series and curated again by London producer and label head Fracture, Vol.2 celebrates Fracture's forward-thinking ethos, the label's expansive stylistic roots and the sheer brilliance of catching a vibe.

Vol.2 is another all-killer-no-filler experience this time featuring: Warp/Ninja/Rephlex/Mu releasing and electronic generation shaping Luke Vibert dropping acid at 165BPM, a dream come true reboot of Om Unit & Machinedrum's dope AF collaborative alias "Dream Continuum", DnB legend, (Full Cycle label head, Reprazent and Breakbeat Era member) DJ Die & Digital Soundboy Dismantle's double heavyweight "DieMantle" partnership, full-time LA Footworker and Teklife OG Taso, NYC Beatmaker & Ninja Tune & Planet Mu artist Falty DL. PLUS.... label mainstays and big time soundboys all; Parisienne dub wizard Moresounds, the Modern Junglist with the golden touch, Sully and a NXLVL-Powers-Combine-Triumvirate Sam Binga, Lewis James and Rider Shafique getting 'Everfresh'. Fracture himself contributes a longtime club weapon from him and long-time production partner Neptune and give us the first taste of his experimental 160 BPM Fast Techno aka Turbo Berghain (consider yourself on notice. You heard it here first!) Add in Hyperdub's freshest, Proc Fiskal, who continues his 'damn son' unique streak and Lit international "insta-sign" contributions from Canada's Groves, Spain's Iberian Juke label heads BSN Posse (Broken Lip & Stay Puft), LA's ONHELL and Portland's Sigrah and you might see what Charlie Fracture sees.. Vibes for miles. In our opinion this is some of the freshest most exciting music this year so hats off to all the vibe catchers and to Fracture for bottling some of their best.

We turn you over to that man Fracture to give you his personal insights

It really is my pleasure to present to you Astrophonica's second full length various artist compilation: Gradients Vol. 2. It carries on seamlessly from where Vol. 1 left off with a mix of label regulars, new names and some real head turners. It took some time to curate given the success of Vol. 1 and I'm very proud of it. The music reflects the label perfectly.

Thanks for reading, thanks for listening and thanks for supporting. 
Peace. Charlie Fracture.

Gradients Vol.2 is released by Astrophonica on 30th November 2018 on Triple Vinyl LP + Limited Edition Tshirts & Risograph print bundles. As with all previous Astrophonica releases, the compilation sports art and design from the incredible Utile Creative Studio.

When music rushes around you, with noise and sound, then enjoy the breaks too, they are often just as beautiful!
....sometimes even more beautiful!
