Dubruvvas return with their second release on Transparent Audio this year, this time set to take the drum & bass and dubstep scene by storm with two outstanding tracks showcasing the full force of their production. 'Notions' opens the release with a stripped-back, minimal approach, built around rolling drums, weighty sub-bass and intricate sound design. Dubruvvas keep the arrangement tight and purposeful, allowing each element to hit with maximum impact while maintaining the groove and movement expected from a proper dancefloor roller. On the flip, 'Mic Man' brings longtime collaborators Limmz & Kaisan T to the forefront for a full-blown dubstep and grime workout. The two MCs lock into the track with effortless chemistry, trading bars over a grime-infused rhythm and creating an iconic flow that drives the track from start to finish. As with every release, Dubruvvas continue to push their production and style forward, refining their sound and raising the bar with each new record. 'Notions' / 'Mic Man' captures that progression perfectly, moving between minimal drum & bass and heavyweight dubstep while bringing together Dubruvvas' evolving production style with the raw energy of two distinctive UK MCs.

Jungle Rootz returns to Artikal with his second release for the label with 4 tracks showcasing his unique style within Dubstep and Garage. 'Proper Shaker' and 'Ganja Jin' have been working soundsystems worldwide with support from Youngsta, Mantra and J:Kenzo. 'Smoke Room' and 'Venus' are fresh laidback 2-Step garage tracks - smooth and rolling.
The art of the album within bass music has never been more important. In an era of perceived algorithmic dominance, global dubstep dons and DDD founders Truth have delivered an LP for the ages with Timelines - exploring parallel worlds, timeline fractures and multiple universes. An artistic statement that goes against the grain, transporting you to another dimension across 18 tracks of sublime craft, resonance, and emotion - boasting soul-enriching sonic depth, innate musicality, and, of course, bone-rattling sub frequencies. Second single 'Love Me in the Dark' sees the duo team up with long time collaborator Dub Princess, for a piece of moody melodic dubstep perfection. The dreamy, ethereal yet haunting intro features Megumi's full vulnerability before the anthemic main hook sets off a drop that slaps you senseless. Powerful synths, trappy drums and sub-throbbing bass combine to deliver a thrill of complete euphoria, yet nuanced with a sense of palpable tension and unease. Lose yourself in the dark with Truth and Dub Princess. Love will find you.
