CATCH DLR & MAKO IN BRIGHTON!!!! FRIDAY JULY 22ND!!!! https://www.facebook.com/Takeovermovements/

What a great track!!! So good vibes feat DLR bass...

Choonz

Utopia's long anticipated 15th single brings forth DLR onto the label roster.  The A side 'Old Soul' also combines the brotherhood of Mako and Fields and the results are delicious.  A heavy homemade break joins together an intricate bass line with the touches of love that the label pushes.  The second drop adds more vocal melodies and makes the tune more than just one for the dancefloor.

Supported by Goldie, Doc Scott, Break, LTJ Bukem, Spectrasoul, Friction, Total Science and many esteemed others.

Mako, DLR & Fields - Old Soul

Utopia's 16th vinyl single brings label stalwart Break into the fold once again for a hard hitting roller that has been getting reactions all over the globe since it got leaked into the top DJ's hands.  The A side teams up the Symmetry boss with Utopia label honcho and recent Metalheadz addition Mako, with his long term partners Fields and Villem.  The production and weight are unreal whilst retaining a woody rather than plastic aesthetic.

A charity fundraising album project curated by Foreign Concept & the team at Critical, featuring tracks donated by Mefjus, Emperor, Foreign Concept, Kasra, Krakota, Enei, Eastcolors, Hyroglifics and Halogenix.

In Christmas of 2013 Foreign Concept, Stray and Xtrah got their heads  together and decided that rather than let some sought after unreleased music sit idle on their hard drives they would put it to use and offer people the chance to download the tracks whilst raising money for charity. 
This year Foreign Concept has gone one step further and we at Critical have all gone through the vaults and put an album together, again for a good cause. This time we have chosen Oxfam. Oxfam is a vibrant global movement of dedicated people fighting poverty. From saving lives and developing projects that put poor people in charge of their lives and livelihoods, to campaigning for change that lasts.


All monies go directly to the charity.  
Please give generously and enjoy the music!

Merry Christmas from all at Critical Music

Kasra - Expo (Do They Know It's #Critmas?)

Omni Music welcomes another newcomer to the label, the talented 'Bad 4 Life'. He starts his journey on the label with Stargazing, a jazz-inspired beautiful throw back to the classic 90's atmospheric sound, complete with flickers of piano and rolling rhythms. The title track Bamboo Forest begins with scintillating arpeggios and glistening pads that are punctuated by chopping breakbeats as the serene tale rolls along. The EP ends on Sheila, an energetic jazz-funk roller that offers timeless sounds and a dynamic double bass riff that completes this trio of musical enchantment.

Section X Wreckless 'Seraph' [DSCI4]

A jungle anthem, reborn.

It’s been an astonishing 33 years since 'Terminator' first landed, a seismic moment in music history that reprogrammed the very DNA of Jungle Drum & Bass. Goldie’s future shock masterpiece didn’t just break the mould, it melted it into liquid metal.

Three decades on, the legacy still echoes. And now, the anthem returns...
