Terabyte Records’ eighth instalment marks a return to the depths of the deep DnB sea,
where Norwich-based duo Volatile Psycle lie in wait, ready to pounce on any ears that
venture to close to the sea floor. Despite this release being their debut on Terabyte, the pair are all too familiar in the music scene, with glitch-hop/dnb tipped releases on Caliber Music, Adapted Records and Heavy Artillery Recordings, disproving the old adage “jack of all trades, master of none’. 

Their appeal is definitely reflected in their bookings; between now
and the end of the year the bass-heavy double are set to appear in their home region Norfolk, their archrival region Suffolk, as far afield as Belgium in December, and will be expecting plenty more bookings in between.

As the daylight hours slowly but surely begin to close in, the sounds of this Volatile Psycle single remind you that the winter is coming. The pair describe this sound as ‘yard’ music, and perhaps they’re right; it certainly isn’t for a middle-class garden party.

Kicking things off in spectacular style is the A side, ‘Twisted Imagery’ is a heavyweight
monster, combining Foreign Beggars-esque vocals over a murky minimal roller concocted in the bleak Norfolk marshes. Itʼs got all the requisite elements: razor sharp drum work impeccably arranged with some real step to it, murky low-slung vocals that accentuate itʼs dark and dirty feel and what is really a lesson for any up-and-coming producer in sub bass manipulation that wouldnʼt sound out of place coming out of the Dispatch camp. The track has already received attention from Seb aka Skankandbass on Youtube, receiving 4,000 hits before it had even found a home with Terabyte.

The B side, Barricade, acts as exactly as the name suggests, trapping you in a dark and
moody stomp forbidding you from leaving the dancefloor. Definitely one for the darker heads, and is a great tool for the DJs amongst you. With many of the same elements as its opposite number, minus the vocals, itʼs a little more forward thinking in its outlook. 

The drum arrangement is a more complex than the regular 2-step beat and while the bassline is more subtle, what it loses in size, it makes up for in depth. All in all it is, at times, a haunting, evocative piece of music and at others a full-blooded piece of D&B that skips effortlessly between the two.

Whilst Terabyte recently forayed into the liquid side of the genre, they laid breadcrumbs carefully to allow them to head back to their standard catalogue where they left off;
bassheavy minimal drum and bass. This release definitely does not disappoint.

Word on the street is that the dastardly duo Kleu and Deefa MC have both been up to no good again. Those cheeky little scallywags even had the cheek to sign some stinkin’ riddims to the Serial Killaz label and did they even ask permission from the Jungle Council? Course they bloody didn’t!

‘Scallywag’ hits hard like a double dose of whatever the local street corner dealer has been cooking up in his kitchen overnight. Full of naughty one liners from Deefa that reflects his deep yet dulcet tones to the max. It’s a moody affair so probably best to not forget your bally.. ‘7 Days Straight’ isn’t about pulling a full week's shift in the office, what you are getting here is ruffneck beats and bass to your ear plus some heavyweight vocal stabs thrown in for good measure.

‘Ronin’ chucks in some mashed up Amen breaks that have been filtered and twisted to the edge of their existence, once again complimented by Deefa firing shots left, right and center down the SM58. ‘Merlin’ takes more of an old fashioned Kleu kind of vibe, bordering on inducing epileptic fits across the dance floor and beyond.

Darkside business a run from start to finish. Hug the corners.

Kleu Feat. Deefa MC - Ronin

After being featured on our ‘BC Flood Relief LP’ earlier this year, we had to bring back this rising UK talent with a standout single. 

2022 is looking good for this West Indian Wheel Up Selecta, with a handful of big label releases already under his belt and plenty more in the pipeline! Formula has some very exciting upcoming projects, both solo and with the newly formed trio ‘Western Curriculum’, as well as something we can’t quite spill the beans on yet! 

What makes Formula such a great producer is that he refuses to stick to one niche of drum and bass. If something sounds good he makes it, he won’t be limited to one sub-genre or one style. This release is no different. 

 ‘I Can’t Remember’ Starts with melodic synth work, which introduces the main vocals that are accompanied by a funky guitar riff. A rolling bass draws us up to the drop, unleashing the perfect blend of an 808s and Reese bassline. By now you are singing along, an anthem has been born. 

‘Criminology’ is made for the dancefloor. Big synth energy and radio-friendly vocals build up to what is undoubtedly a peak time tune, sure to bring the energy up to 10!

Formula - Criminology - 170plus06

It was an absolute honor to do an official remix for the mighty Sizzla Kalonji. This is a remix of one of the singles off his new album "Born a King" produced by my friend Mista Savona...

This is a feel good anthem, a conscious song for the people of the world and an absolute pleasure to be a part of...
