Within the palm of the galaxy’s outstretched arms lies a veritable jewel of a world, supporting a rich and eclectic biosphere filled with both flora and fauna blessed with preternatural abilities by the benevolent grace of cosmic luck. Their homeworld’s existence within concentric rings of galactic and solar habitable zones bestows these beings with a countenance of primal grandeur, setting them apart from the other species spread across the galaxy on account of the singular strangeness of their existence. Chief amongst the denizens of this distant world is the spectacular Kahnao, a quadrupedal beast known for bearing forth a most sonorous vocalization.

With a snout resembling the brass horn instruments often found amongst the ancient cultures of humanoid worlds, the Kahnao’s facade hints immediately to the viewer about its primary purpose. With their population spread in small groups across the vast savannas of their homeworlds, the Kahnao have developed a method of communication that allows them to send messages across distances unmatched by the inborn abilities of any galactic species. Thanks to a vocal tract that runs almost the entire length of their bodies, the Kahnao are able to generate infrasonic frequencies that are amplified as they resonate along the string-like appendages that protrude from their mouths. The subtle differences in the bodies of each member of the species create a different chordal signature, a harmony unique to their form that serves as a communicative signature, identifying them to others across the endless grassland expanses of their home. It is said that when the Kahnao herds speak to each other in their great assemblies the entire planet’s surface reverberates in response, as these unique LIFEFORMS create a sonic experience that is without equal anywhere else within the galaxy.

L 33 returns to EATBRAIN with four alien sonic sequences that are replete with thunderous low-end frequencies which call the label’s widespread horde to attention before his latest offering, an EP that he titles “LIFEFORMS”. Within, the EATBRAIN veteran charts new territory for his productions while continuing to deliver the signature sonics that found him purchase on the label many orbital cycles ago, delivering a novel twist on his much beloved stylistic center across the EP’s four tracks.

Lifeforms EP

L 33 - Resonator (Eatbrain 148)

//Artist: @Ekwols
//Title: 'Mindless Silence'
//Label: @EvolutionChamberOfficial

//Release Date: 10th February 2023

New and Exclusive signing, Ekwols makes his Evolution Chamber debut and he’s feeling ‘Nervous’.

Incandescent with tension and rage, ‘Mindless Silence’ is another provocative, emotionally-charged stomper. A fired-up take on a protest song in solidarity with the civil rights movement, it’s the sound of Ekwols thrashing out his feelings and frustrations in the studio, trying to make sense of a grossly misshapen, greedy and unfair world.

It's a far cry from the world Ekwols wants to see. As his name suggests, Ekwols stands for total and utter equality and inclusivity across the board. And we can expect many more of these type of messages in his music moving forward.

New to Evolution Chamber but not new to the game, Ekwols has had many projects and aliases beyond D&B throughout the 2000s, but this is his most accomplished project so far. Creatively, technically, sonically – Ekwols is the sound of a man who’s spent his life dedicated to music and artistic freedom and fusion. Much more nerve-wracking material is expected to land in the future and we guarantee it will make your palms sweaty and have you weak at the knees. Lose yourself in the music.

BURR OAK mark a monolithic moment in their sonic journey with the release of their debut album, SOMEWHERE WE BELONG, which stands as the crown jewel of the two member’s careers as solo artists and as a duo alike. Packed with a mammoth 18 tracks that span the full breadth of the Neurofunk genre, SOMEWHERE WE BELONG sees BURR OAK deliver a definitive work set to cement itself well within the history of the genre.

BURR OAK’s own story is mirrored in the stories of their twin cowboy personas, Scruggs and Sonny Jim, whose escapades are expressed throughout the album’s tracklist and the tales that accompany it. Much like these two inseparable wanderers, BURR OAK’s two members, Niko and Julien, began their careers as solo artists before joining together to embark on their shared quest as BURR OAK. Longtime fans of Neurofunk will recognize each by their many other monikers. Niko has produced and performed variously as a member of the French Drum & Bass trio Signs, as half of the duo Cecil Hotel, and under his solo alias Opsen throughout his long career devoted to the pursuit of Drum & Bass’ most technical edge. By contrast, Julien’s journey under his solo alias The Clamps has seen him champion both cinematic soundscapes and the genre’s most extreme fringes, merging beauty and brutality within his music in equal measure. 
If this wasn’t a colorful palette of a career enough, they are also running another project with the also Toulouse based SKS – “Forum” which is also a heavyweight drum and bass project with a jungle/rave/oldschool twist. And to add a cherry on the top Julien runs Third Colony with Yan, an extravagant IDM/downtempo project.

As BURR OAK, these two prolific artists intertwine their sounds in an inexorable musical lattice, presenting a unified sonic profile that is more than the sum of its parts. This stylistic synergy thrives amidst SOMEWHERE WE BELONG, which details the story of BURR OAK both in fiction and as the producers they are today. The album’s title speaks to this, not only for the duo’s cowboy characters but for Niko & Julien as well. Beneath the branches of the BURR OAK, these titans of Neurofunk have truly found somewhere they belong.

Through his lifetime the sage had traveled far, crossing both the vast distances of the physical world and the great expanses of his immaterial soul in the pursuit of divine knowledge that drove him ever onwards. The latest leg of this lifelong journey had brought him to a precipice in both of these locales and, taking a brief respite upon it, visions of divergent pathways swam through his mind’s eye. 

Each route lay now before him wreathed in flames that obscured with their cast shadows both journey and destination as lay along their course. Standing at the fore of each was a guardian animal, offering guidance through the trials of the unknown path that lay before the sage. A wolf offered its companionship and ferocity, a crow its intelligence and vision, a deer its alertness and grace, and a fox its elusiveness and cunning. Yet only one could lead the sage through all that lay beyond, and three paths would be left behind in the shadow of the great mountains that loomed before him. Thus it was that the sage tapped into the power of his own greatest strength, the INTUITION that had guided him for all of his life, and that would do so for all that remained to come. 

MYSELOR makes his EATBRAIN debut with INTUITION, an EP that unveils a new set of sonic secrets for the ears of the label’s horde. Within, the Greek DJ taps into the sensation that serves as the title for his latest body of work, deftly crafting the basslines within in accordance with its supernatural guidance and in following with the theme set by his releases “Rebirth” and “Soul Power” that have come before.

Intuition

Myselor - Emerging (Eatbrain 191)

I made a rather unexpected EP inspired when I tried out the Peripeteia demo by 90sGraphics.

The dark atmosphere in the game was a strong inspiration for this music.

I also created an illustrative album art, where I could try drawing Marie again (and I really enjoyed it). Overall, a small EP, but I'm very glad I did it.

Thanks again to 90sGraphics for permission to use Marie for the illustration on the album art.


Endless Cycle

In the black depths where sonar pings fade into silence, Abducted LTD resurfaces with another strike. Direct Shift emerges from the abyss, delivering two of his most sinister weapons to date: “Crazy Ivan / Bad Guy.”

“Crazy Ivan” is the maneuver — a violent swerve in the darkness, unpredictable and lethal. The track churns like steel grinding against the hull of a submarine under pressure, with frenetic rhythms cutting through the void. It’s a neurofunk detonation that captures the paranoia of deep-water warfare, designed to leave no escape route.

“Bad Guy” is the aftermath — a cold, stalking presence that drags you deeper into the trench. Layers of distorted bass and razor percussion coil like machinery in a flooded control room, while sinister motifs pulse like warning lights in a doomed vessel. This is Direct Shift at his sharpest: energetic, relentless, and dripping with menace.

Both tracks stand as career-defining moments — precision-engineered neurofunk that proves Direct Shift isn’t just navigating the depths… he’s commanding them.

The Clamps - What Is It [KOSEN 49]

Beatport Exclusive: 
https://www.beatport.com/release/polar-lows/3142974
Full release: 30th OCT 2020 

Artwork by @jondeerhill
 
The name Burr Oak should already be very familiar to Trendkill Records’ most ardent followers. The emergent drum and bass supergroup, formed of Toulouse producers Opsen and The Clamps, burst onto the scene last year, striking listeners with their intense, no-holds-barred approach to neurofunk. Drawing on their ever-innovative sound design skills and prolific work rate, the two Frenchmen crafted a whopping four releases for the Prolix-helmed label last year and have since guested on Eatbrain and Cause4Concern in 2020. Now celebrating a homecoming of sorts, October finds the pair returning to Trendkill for the Polar Lows EP, which features a seismic alliance with Austrian duo TR Tactics. 

Showcasing their production prowess, the individual contributions from each member of Burr Oak shine through over the course of the three-track project. As a former member of the innovative trio Signs, well-known for their halftime contributions to labels like Noisia’s Division, Opsen audibly leaves his mark on opener and title track “Polar Lows”, which utilises flourishes of snarling, hip-hop inspired breakbeats before searing synths launch it into a riotous climax. Meanwhile, some of the blistering basslines on show throughout the EP are well-aligned with The Clamps’ signature sound, the sum of the two’s contributions making for phenomenal results. 

Add Trendkill labelmates TR Tactics into the mix on “Washoku” and expect a four-way collaboration of epic proportions, deploying both heavyweight synth work and fleeting, atmospheric pauses. Rounding off the EP is the brooding, progressive “Intelligent Suicide”. Introduced with melancholy ambiances and subdued stabs before hurtling towards a gritty, mechanical crescendo garnished with whirring feedback and drilling basses, the song makes for one of the pair’s most intriguing creations to date, serving as a firm reminder that these two titans of the neuro scene have plenty more tricks up their sleeves.
