Chart-conquering, festival-demolishing duo Phibes are back once again on Jungle Cakes. Having proven themselves capable of incorporating all kinds of sounds and influences into their dancefloor-focused drum 'n' bass artillery, this release comes loaded with anticipation. And with that moody drill-flavoured intro capped off with the emcee sample that gave the track its title dropping into throbbing bass and industrial percussion, it's evident that the Phibes guys have hit the target once again. This is going to land like a tonne of bricks wherever it's dropped. For licensing & label enquiries, please contact Martin Flex: martin@hotcakesmusic.com
Multiple artists collaborating on a release can only mean one thing: Pure Chaos and Carnage. All core artists to the label, Revan, Kaneki, Koax and Yannons come together on a two-track single built around deep grooves and heavy low-end. Written during writers camps last year, the tracks reflect a natural studio chemistry and a shared approach to stripped-back, rolling drum & bass made for the heads. Both cuts lean into tight drums, warm subs and subtle atmospheres, keeping things minimal and letting the groove do the work. Revans clean, focused style sits in sharp contrast to Koaxs bass-led movement, while Yannons builds crisp harmonics and Kaneki adds texture to balance the mix. The result is a tense, high-impact release that rolls with purpose, designed for late nights and low-lit dancefloors. A strong release driven by collaboration, and a clear reflection of the Transparent Audio sound. Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com
Battery & Philth return to Dispatch Blueprints with Blueprints 023, continuing a journey that began with their landmark Majesty EP on Dispatch - a release that sparked a long-running partnership and the creation of the Majesty brand. Written together in the Battery studios, these four tracks lean deeper into the soulful, emotive influences that have shaped their sound, with a firm nod to jungle, liquid funk and the house-inflected drum & bass legacy of Marcus Intalex. From the euphoric, rudeboy jungle energy of Sunshine featuring Deeizm, to the deep, driving soul of Stay, the Swerve-era nostalgia of Moving On with Craggz on guitar, and the future-leaning RnB-DnB fusion of Thighs, this release captures a modern take on classic sonics. Crafted using analogue gear and true in-room collaboration, Blueprints 023 feels right at home on the Blueprints series.
Australian producers streetflicker and Fitch come together on Half Of Me, an uplifting drum & bass track about breaking free from the past and moving forward stronger. Combining a melodic hook with lush soundscapes, the track is designed to resonate with crowds and keep the dancefloor energy high. With streetflicker fresh off a #3 Beatport hit and currently touring Australia with Andy C, and Fitch gaining major traction through Top 10 Shazamed and Viral chart success in New Zealand, Half Of Me feels like a natural next step in a fast-rising journey.
