CYBERPHUNK CLAUSURA is the closing chapter of the CYBERPHUNK saga, following CYBERPHUNK and CYBERPHUNK EXPANSION. Across 12 tracks, Calagad 13 expands the sonic language of the series through Electro, Breakbeat and Acid - combining SubBass pressure, fractured rhythms, hypnotic sequences and darker atmospheric structures into a body of work designed to be experienced as a continuous journey. Balancing high-impact energy with dystopian textures and acid mutations, CLAUSURA represents the final transmission of the CYBERPHUNK universe. While this release concludes the main narrative, the universe will continue evolving through forthcoming reinterpretations and remix transmissions. Final chapter. Final signal.

Take the title seriously. This EP is big and it's bad and, while not literally a wolf, it's got everything required to blow down the house.\n\nYou've heard Deekline and Son of Sam team-up on the massive 'Local', and now they're bringing us five new tracks, six if you include Yo Speed's remix of the title track.\n\nTaking us through 4/4 bassline, UKG, and breaks flavours, with vibes ranging from the low-end grit of 'Rack City' to the float-away soul of 'Deeper', this delivers something closer to a mini-album than a collection of disparate tracks. Beat and bassline artistry in effect.\n\nFor licensing & label enquiries, please contact Martin Flex: martin@hotcakesmusic.com

Krafty Kuts doesn't follow trends, he shakes them up, sending shockwaves of sonic disruption through the scene, a force that now surges into his forthcoming album Turbulence. Krafty Kuts has never chased trends; instead, he has spent decades shaking them up - a philosophy that inspired the title of his forthcoming album, Turbulence. From early releases with Ministry of Sound, Fabric and Finger Lickin', to founding his own Against The Grain label and Brighton's Supercharged club nights, Krafty Kuts' career reads like a long-form study of British bass culture. Pulling from UKG, breaks, bassline and with flashes of jazz, Turbulence twists familiar forms into something far harder to pin down. The beats are fractured and the energy is unpredictable by design. Collaborations come loaded with pedigree and punch: MC Spyda (of Tarantula with Pendulum and Balaclava with Shy FX fame) rides the low-slung, future-leaning 'Running', while B Live cuts through the breakbeat-garage hybrid 'Best In Me'. Elsewhere, 'Rocket' glows with the soulful touch of Scarlett Quinn, and Skool of Thought helps unleash the broken beat juggernaut 'Flowers'. This isn't an album that blends genres - it destabilises them. Check out the club smashes 'Wub Juggler' and 'New Ting', with support spanning from Rinse FM to BBC Radio 1. 'Over the past few years I've been releasing an EP series called Breakin' Boundaries, because I've always been about exploring the full depth and range of bass and breaks-driven music, irrespective of sub-genre. This album has been a long time coming, and honestly, I feel like I've pushed my sound further than ever before. It's full-throttle bass, diving deep into where breaks can go next - but it also includes deep, melodic songs too' This marks the first artist album released on Against The Grain in a few years, inspired by the resurgence of interest in the breaks genre and its embrace by A-list artists such as Fred Again, Chris Lorenzo, Bonobo to name a few. But do not expect a polite reintroduction. This is Krafty Kuts with the lights down low and the bass turned up, delivering a contemporary body of work that, as the title suggests, is here to shake things up.
