Impressive eclectic music from the team at Bad Taste Tecordings

So I’ve spent the last hour listening to music as I get back on track from a few weeks hiatus. I opened up the email and a plethora of great music spewed out into my brain. One release of which stuck out the most. Bad Taste has the second edition of Molecular Music featuring a multitude of great neurofunk artists. On this release you get music from Redpill, Art1fact, Cod3x, Mean Teeth, Khronos, Encode,Valrus, Hyqxyz, Black Barrel, Mars, and the well known Machine Code.

All tracks on this release are certainly worthy of a mix set, workout music, drive themes, but one of them stands out to me the most.

Mars “I Never Stopped Fighting”

This is a fantastic piece of neurofunk! The intro is a simple set of beauteous atmospheres, synths, and them tight staple neurofunk drums. The break down keeps you intrigued to what’s to come. The sample from Matt Damon’s movie The Martian sits so well in this! I fell asleep during the movie but I certainly couldn’t fall asleep through this track. I’d dance through my bed sheets all night if this thing was on loop. The drop has a hint of older Spor music with a certain Bad Taste twist. Great piece of work!

Check out the release at Bad Taste Recordings!

Betafuture is making their way

A new Bulgarian Drum & Bass Act Emerges

There are tons of new producers that come on to the scene every year. Some jump to the upper echelon right away, others take their time and crank out tunes in between their day jobs. We appreciate all of them especially the ones that show promise. Bulgarian producers Betafuture are a new act that shows they have potential. Bulgaria brings the work a different outlook on music in any genre. From oddly flamboyant artists like Azis (:-/), the amazingly beautiful pop star Andrea, the voice of the famous Valia Balkanska, and the nasty music from Drum & Bass producer Ivan Shopov aka Cooh, Bulgaria has a plethora of talent and this new act wants to join the ranks.

The duo is working on free downloads and making an effort to promote them like they can stand against the sounds of top level Drum & Bass. There next free download is “Parallax.” Their style is a rave style liquid track. While the sound may be a bit “happier” than what I am used to hearing from Bulgarian Drum & Bass, it has a style that could be played live or even in a video game. Betafuture has a future in dnb and we can’t wait to here more!

Love what they are doing. Keep up the good work, Betafuture!

Betafuture is on its way to explore the galaxies!

Filip Motovunski has made it…

Right Here on Bad Taste Recordings

Filip Motovunski delivered Cro Cop Kick of a track. This Croatian Drum & Bass / Jungle dj and producer has been picked up by the infamous Bad Taste Recordings. We are impressed with the sound. Filip delivers a different style of Drum & Bass and his simple approach is surely effective. “Right Here” has some beautiful pads and epic vox. Then he brings in a 7th chord synth and a bouncy drum drop. This is a fun track and with quality that compares to the upper echelon of Drum & Bass producers. Is this a dance floor effective track? In the right circumstance, hell yes. I love the mix down of this track especially. Its all crisp and clean and completely in control. The Lava VIP is the one that hits hard to me though. This is NEURO at its finest. “Every little thing gets burned by Lava.” Check out the music video for this sick track!

Bad Taste Recordings brings you Fa11out with Vegas

Wow. I must say this one is different but nasty! Time and time again, Bad Taste Recordings come through with music that consistently shows change what we call Drum & Bass. This one from the label has certainly proven that you don’t need super fat drums to make a slammer of a tune. Fa11out is another Bosnian drum & bass act that is hailing well in the drum & bass scene. The duo are promoters in their local scene and have hitched up with Bad Company UK veteran, Vegas to come up with this slamming track.

Check out the track below if you haven’t yet already.

Body & Soul Featuring MC Daxta – Connect

Body & Soul enter the Mainframe

Body & Soul have been around for years now and they still figure out ways to amaze us. Their versatile style is well known amongst true Drum & Bass fans throughout the years. They’ve had a amazing run on Mainframe Recordings. Their most recent release to mind is Hypochonda with Ansa. This was a A side Trap release with the B-sdie being the Drum & Bass remix of the release and after this absolute smasher, Body & Soul come correct with a dope track “Connect” with MC Daxta on Mainframe.

The tile track intro’s with a funny pad and then Mc Daxta’s smooth vox come through as “We Start to Connect” with sick brass pads and boom!!! A sick hype drop ready for any dance floor worldwide! The mix of the bass did sound odd on cheap speakers but when I played in the studio on loud speakers I was blown away! Great sound from the duo. And then the remix…

So I’ll say I don’t particularly like remixes some out with the original because usually a remix in the same genre should overshadow the original… With that said, I feel this is what happens on this release… OMG. Phentix, Austrian Drum & Bass Producer, surely does a bang up job on this remix. It kind of sounds like Mob Tactics’ hit “Lifer” but has such a dope neck breaking drop. Intro pads, stabs, and 80’s style synths all do a bang up job. Phentix shines through on this neck breaker of a track…

Massive shout out to the label. Mainframe Recordings FTW.

Levitate to another dimension

Our ears, and yours, have been blessed with this beautiful ep. We were glad to be introduced to Airtek’s music this week. This London based producer has just released an EP with Absys Records. “To the Sky” EP is certainly one to have in your bag of audio. The title track is amazingly written. Pads, synths, rhodes, effects, and the sweet deep reece bass line. This track just makes you melt as it drives you through an array of stabs, atmospheres, and vocal blips. This track is definitely needed to assist in soothing your soul!

He does with his “Promises and Lies” EP on Redlight Records

Fragz is certainly a stand out producer who has been known to make some of the hardest pre-hardcore style of Drum & Bass. Fragz, has set aside the techno influenced pots and pans in the cupboard. He’s now cooking with future space utensils. The Portugal native has signed onto UK’s Red Light Records with his “Promises & Lies” EP. The EP features artists Impak, Disphonia, and the title track features MC Kryptomedic. The title track is where its at! The crunchy baseline and epic synths and pads take your deep. This is a neck breaker for sure and you MUST BUY! The tracks are out sooner than you think. Watch this space!
