dutch breakcore/jungle legend fff recently joined the prspct family and his first release on our rvlt imprint rocks pretty damn hard! 6 tracks of epic nostalgic proportion taking you back to the good old amen days. jungle, breakcore, dark dnb, rave and even some oldschool gabber vibes. this ep has it all!

amsterdam local, ivory coast progeny and grime-juke-jungle gene-splicer, h-sik makes his black acre debut in rude style with two concrete-junglist chemical weapons. first up is the muscular drum workout *sonic rage* which layers a ridiculously powerful, yet deftly chopped 808-amen bombardment with delicate citric pads, bleeps and lost droideka language. on the flip is the orwellian *no promises* a natural pairing of vangelis atmospherics and committed drum-funk workout, building with undead voices and b-boy breakdowns.

diynamic musics newest release, a full self-titled album by stimming, once again shows why this labels artists are some of the most renowned in the music scene. pacing through the snowy sand white beaches that leave marks behind every step seagulls chirping, and suddenly a steady bass appears as waves crash onto the beach. a dream-like state begins, and as the beat sets in, you are lost in the sounds of stimming. his new album was born in this very state of mind, on the beaches of the baltic sea, during a 5-week retreat from reality in the winter of 2012.

we never forget our roots here at idle hands. for people of a certain age the wild experiments of jungle and dnb remain close to our hearts. whilst scenes, sounds and trends may wax and wane that visceral feeling of chest rattling bass is something we hold on to. rhythmic theory is one producer who like us, never forgot. here we present two tunes deeply indebted to those times. it must be stated though, you will not find any amen breaks or ragga samples here, instead, this up and coming bristol producer transposes the atmospheres and deadly subs to a techno template. *legacy of the lost* and *riveted* follow on from two well received vinyl only release on brstl and his own self titled label. both tracks are immaculately crafted hardware jams that are designed solely with sound system use in mind.

remixes taken from clouds usb islands, featuring reworks from lhfs amen ra, tomutonttu, and a very twisted house version from gerry read.

vinyl only... special request returns with the third vital 12 inch in this series based on capturing the spontaneous rugged energy of uk pirate radio and re-wiring this into chaotic dancefloor moments. maintaining all the illicit qualities of the best hardcore/jungle blueprints but reloading them with a contemporary approach, there is an attention to detail and touch here that makes these recordings far from revisionist. on the third stamped release, special request tackles the voice of one of this years most talked about artists, laying down a deadly amen break and killer hoover bassline for a sub 130 bpm dnb track that is simply explosive. on the flip is the even tougher vip mix that doubles up as a dub. limited hand-stamped, vinyl only release

shrouded in mystery and rarety loops haunts musical outpourings are the stuff of urban folklore. a strange alchemy of rugged rzaesque drums lay a contrasting bed for his spectral outboard sound bombardment. in contradiction with prior experiments, zenith has a strong and muscular loop based drum aesthetic running throughout from the nyc leanings mun rhul to the straight up amen bothering hardcore of zenith itself loops haunt has never sounded more relevant on a soundsystem!
black acre finish off a strong 2012 in anarchic style!

we wish there were more moments like the ones that madis ones new 12 inch, in the image (blnk-27), brought to mind. >the hotness< is just that, a mechanical, bass driven, hip-hop cut while >the abyss< recalls the days when the amen break and substance reigned over celebrity status. available on 12 inch vinyl, cut at 45 rpm. we recommend trying these out at 33 rpm as well!

the official remixes, delivered on double vinyl!

prplxs entitled fabric of space explores the deeper side of the breakbeat spectre. clever drum programming as well as going in a bass shakin direction, it reminds us of early bluenote & speed days but definitely with a modern touch. these tracks are another testament to prplxs love for the breakbeat. also included here is the roadtested taiga track which starts of deep and hypnotic but surprises you with the harsh amen drop, raw synth and dark male reggae vocal, do we hear a r.e.w.i.n.d.? the album will be released in two parts, the first one is a 250 handnumbered edition on 180 gram crystal clear vinyl (with special 75mm labelcopies and innersleeves) including free mp3 download codes and wrapped in a sealbag. all tracks have been mastered by stuart hawkes from metropolis london. support comes from all the usual suspects. on a first come, first served basis only

first up is 92, a straight up jacking deep house number with, as the title suggests, a retro flavour. the deep repetitive pads are jacked up with amen break style drums that were used so widely in electronic music back in the 90s. some quirky synth lines and vocal licks here and there give the track its touch of soul and then a fat bass line to bring in the bottom end. high quality simple yet effective house music...

massive anthem from 2010 gets reworked and bigger bass than before this smashes the dancefloor to pieces! on the flip spies pays homage to the old skool jungle amen era of 94 and with the man of the moment bladerunner giving his magic touch well what can we say!

sublimely convulsive shangaan electro-gospel by a pastor from giyani, limpopo, recorded in 2008, brimming with aching, plaintive, mournful spirituality. however fractured, multi-faceted and fresh the music comes across ù that signature whistle and sampled marimba, a little wonky high-life, rough, skittering drum patterns, no bass ù the surging vocal lines and harmonies are unmistakably rooted in traditional south african music.

love in c minors pollyester is following up her hit you are amen with her first release on permanent vacation. mixes by ck & toof and mooner!

that cheeky chap diamond geezer is back with another banging jungle single on his very own self titled label. featuring the vocals of dancehall veteran spragga ben, sound good is a frantic amen led jungle roller that incorperates old skool edits and some classic soundclash effects and bleeps for good measure making this a dirty little dancefloor number indeed!

reissue of release by joe phillips, one of the members of the winstons, known for the landmark breakbeat/rare groove anthem amen, brother.

one of the great aspects of the endlessly varying bass music soundwave is the way it seems able, even compelled, to fuse antecedant styles and genres to itself. in the most innovative hands, influences from last month are absorbed and reworked as smoothly as those from last century, and creativity sparks brightest when the marriage of form and function takes place beyond recognised boundaries? and it?s from that unrestricted zone that uk producer o-dessa emerges. opening with an initial resemblance in sound to the same plaintive blue air of burial, as these tracks resonate deeper in the mind, it becomes clear that this sonic affinity is merely a veil beneath which a new heart beats. the rhythms lurking below the bassline in ?deeper? are like some undiscovered amalgam of old skool hardcore and something you might hear on the latest dirty south mixtape, which somehow manage to defy sense and co-exist in a driving and breathtaking way. mournful mariachi horns and a plunging dub bassline intermingle in a desolate approximation of sergio leone?s western soundtracks, while reedy flutes and distant female voices build a swirling vapour through which skittering woodblocks and metallic ticks raise an anxious sense of motion. anchored by a vast, cone-melting sub-bass undertow, ?deeper? s treasures are buried well below the surface. the juxtapositional subtle-tear-out nature of o-dessa?s production is even more apparent in ?million dollarz?, which reveals itself in stages to be a gradual descent into layers of tweaked amen breaks, but with a grandeur unlike anything previously heard, even though that drum pattern has already been chopped countless ways over the years. it?s not until midway through its five-and-a-half minutes that the famous phased snares rise from the dense banks of atmospherics, but when they do, a moment of blurred euphoria hits and the tune bursts into colourful life. this 12¬ is the first broadcast of many more to come from o-dessa, as - like many have in their own way before and still more strive to do so now - he embarks on his individual journey in the continual reinvention of bass music. instant thrill junkies won?t find their fix in these grooves, but followers of the path less travelled will recognise many signs pointing the way to a rich future.

soliquid slides back into the driving seat once again, for baroque, with this energetic two tracker. techno meets euphoric house with spine tingling effect! amen is a slightly darker tech house cut, great for getting things building while marghurite is made for that peak time moment. a superb ep from this exciting young producer, and one which highlights perfectly why baroque have this guy currently working on an artist album, due early 09!

vor dem sommer noch limitiert, nun endlich als offizielles release. >coconut blues< ist der soundtrack zum aufschwung der herzen in sphären, in denen ständig alles flirrt und vibriert: hüften, beine, handtaschen, trommelfelle, der geist und die fröhlichkeit in ewigkeit. amen!! einfach nur herrlich!

>pop ambient< ist ein liebesversprechen, das jedes jahr erneuert wird. so sicher wie das amen in der kirche, wird pop ambient 2008 auch weiter für weltfrieden sorgen.

support by adam beyer, ricardo villalobos, mark broom, mistress barbara and more !! the unstoppable mihalis safras strikes again. this time on his own label material, he strikes 2 really huge melodic tracks with his partner in crime, liberto on a transparent piece of vinyl. on the a side the king aka mark broom delivers a proper remix. when you hear this release your brain will explode

two amen techbreaksmashers, dark but catchy still foa da ravin head... panacea rmx!!

* back with the heat, chicago native dj jana rush kicks off objects limitedÕs 2017 with her debut album ÔpariahÕ. jana rush received attention for her mind-bending drum acrobatics on last year s Ômpc 7635Õ ep also released by objects ltd. jana started djing aged just 13, releasing her first record on dance mania back in 1996 but having a hiatus from music between 2000 to 2013. with ÔpariahÕ she has created an album rooted in chicago s footwork sound, but with a myriad of influences, such as jungle, acid, soul, jazz and house, developing her sound on from Ômpc 7635Õ. * we kick off with Ômidline shiftÕ whose breathy, clipped erotic vocals intertwine with a pulsing bass and dry 808 rims creating a shimmering robotic effect. moving on, the frantic Ôbeat mazeÕ confuses the mind with white noise rushes and interlocking snares. changing the scene, ÔdivineÕ is sweetly soporific and charming, a beautiful, almost eerie track. the pace picks right back up with Ô??? ??Õ, whose warbling jazz clarinets cut into a juke bounce. the stripped back beats of Ôbreak itÕ give one room to breathe before the croaking bass and distorted acid of Ôno fuks givenÕ. Ôold skoolÕ is exactly what you d expect, its sample syncopated around a feverish rhythm throughout. both Ôrapid fire and Ôacid tech 2Õ are bangers, hitting you deep in that sweet spot. jana brings it back down with ÕcpuÕ s computer noises and sub bass hits. Ôchill modeÕ gives time for reflection after all that fire, but its no ambient track, theres still that chi-town vibe. we finish with Ôfrenetic snareÕ whose amen breaks will have brits thinking of jungle, but it s a different beast altogether
