Kublai has been quietly waiting his turn, thoughtfully honing his craft, diligently putting the time in on the boards. Possibly he calls himself The Imposter. But check the music because that’s what’s important. And this guy is anything but. 

Dropping soon on CIA, Kublai’s ‘The Imposter EP’ is going to blow the competition away. People might not be ready for what the young Mancunian is about to drop. Nestling humbly away inside are essentially four absolute weapons. Having silently developed his skills to the next level, these tracks sound clean yet complex, worked yet fun; but most of all, most importantly, are going to shut the place down. 

Kublai just gets on with his shit, no fanfares, no unnecessary noise, no custard pies. But damn this kid can make tunes. And we’re chuffed to have him back on the label once more!

Tigers are majestic apex predators and currently listed as Endangered on the IUCN Red List. Their population has dramatically declined, with fewer than 4,000 individuals remaining in the wild. Major threats include habitat loss—tigers have lost 95% of their historical range due to human activities—and poaching for their body parts, which are in demand for traditional medicine and as status symbols. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these iconic animals and maintain the balance of their ecosystems. Adn that is why we weill donate all proceeds from this release to the Wildlife Conservation Society.

The precocious talent that is Ed:It is back on CIA, with four new slappers for ya lugholes. We’re always happy to have young Ed on the label, and it was about time for his next outing with us—but he’s really outdone himself this time with his brand new ‘Engines EP’. 

Since ‘The Keep EP’ in 2023, it’s been impossible to keep Ed:It down, as he’s hit relentlessly with a slew of heaters on a who’s who of top labels. He still stays true to the sound and vibe he’s always had, but the levelling up on the studio skills is always immediately evident in his recent work. 

With nods to Jungle, Tech Step, Rollers—and basically just absolute club weapons, this EP is going to go straight into the record box of a whole host of DJs. So please welcome Ed:It back to the CIA fold once again—this guy knows how to bring the heat!

At the start of 2025, Transparent Audio announced its focus on expanding and diversifying its core roster. We’re excited to reveal the latest addition to our family – the Bristol-based duo, Dubruvvas. These two incredibly talented artists have been on our radar for the past few years. We've crossed paths at various events in Bristol and shared many conversations about collaborating. It’s with great pleasure that we now welcome them to the Transparent Audio team.

Known for their mastery of minimal sounds, Dubruvvas have firmly established themselves as key players in the underground scene. Since first making waves in 2021 with their innovative approach to sound design, which blends rolling basslines with stripped-back drums, they’ve earned the respect of both their peers and audiences. Their unique sonic identity is unmistakable and continues to captivate listeners worldwide.

Their debut project with Transparent Audio, Diamond Bits EP, showcases the duo’s versatility with four distinct tracks, each reflecting a different facet of their dynamic sound. The EP also features a collaboration with none other than Bristol’s finest, Gusto.

We’re thrilled to be working with Dubruvvas and can’t wait for you to experience what they have in store.

something special

Made this 2 or 3 years ago. It's about time I release it. 

It has this typical "lost in the pampa"-type vibe you hear quite often in music....
