Hmmmm... Funky, rolling Drum & Bass You Say?!

Ostere - Idle

Trakker, a master of twisted, drum-laden chaos, claws his way into Sofa Sound’s legacy with a sound as unpredictable as a cat on a freshly upholstered divan.

This EP is a whirlwind of signature pressure only he can weave, stitched together with thunderous drums and feral flair.

Expect a litter of bangers: ‘Bamboozled' (alongside Brassik) slinks with aggressive synth stabs and drums that cut deep. ‘VKN' delivers raw, chopped breaks fused with face-melting distortion.
‘OM' weaves haunting vocals through shredding amens, poised to tear any dancefloor to bits.
The title track 'House Cats' brings splashy hats and an infectious wobble.

Capping it off, scene veteran Basic Rhythm collaborates with Trakker on 'Jelly Belly', blending Trakker’s sorcery with a tidy nod to the old-school sound of years past.

Hey, ever wonder what it would be like to eat a ‘Garlic’-flavored fridge ‘Raider’ while ‘Midnight Fishing’ and painting your nails with ‘Acetone’?

Yeah, us neither... Instead, we’re excited to welcome back dotdash to the label with four new dancefloor damagers — this time joined by friends VISLA & Azotix.

Rift makes a powerful return on Dispatch Limited with the Black & Gold EP, a five-track collection that marks a fresh chapter in his sound. After stepping back from production to reset his creative direction, Rift channels a rawer approach, drawing on the influence of early 2000s drum & bass while weaving in the tense, atmospheric qualities of cinematic scores. The result is an EP that feels both stripped-back and expansive, balancing heavy pressure with eerie, suspenseful sound design.

The Black & Gold EP has already gained strong support across the scene, with Philth playing a central role in championing the tracks both in sets and during the production process. Additional support has come from Enta and Cause4Concern, underlining the impact of Rift’s return.

Lost Tape - Pattern [SUBPLATE-192] (Crow & Bass Premiere)

Kathryn Brenna in the MODE and coming with The Remedy but it’s certainly no Coincidence she’s bringing Genic, one of the sickest names in the game, in on the second part of her Sofa Sound EP. 

Coincidence is a melancholic, deep but hard hitting club smasher ready for any set any time, Remedy coming with something a little deeper and more reflective primed for those deep late night sessions. This one will hit hard whatever the occasion.
