Dissident - Universe Eat Universe - Video



Fall of 2005, now defunct Gamma Ray Music announced plans to release the debut album of rising Russian star, Dissident. 'Escapism' was to be released first as a 3 plate vinyl LP, with a CD release following, containing some non-dnb material. As you can see from the DOA thread, the buzz was abound and it looked like it was to be a successful venture.

Well, needless to say, that project fell through and Gamma Ray has since went tits up.

Now,the good people at Subtle Audio are giving this track a proper release. Heads can grab it first from the Subtle Shop [Available December 18th] almost a month before its worldwide release.

Video by Dissident and Slava Makeychik.

Catacomb November News Update

Lots of breaking news to pass on so listen up!
Larry has been in high demand and extremely busy over the last 2 months. Locked in the studio and focussed on production, djing has taken a back seat for the time being. He did however manage to make it out for the historic TorontoJungle.com 10 year anniversary event where he played a prime time slot at 1:20-1:45pm. A live recording of the entire event should surface in a matter of days, so hold tight for that.
Now, let's get to the details.

Firstly, if you didn't know, Disturbed Recordings has been resurrected and has seen 3 new releases over the last 3 months. Their latest [DSTRBD011] features Catacomb - 'Euroballs' b/w Rregula & Dementia - 'City Of Dogs'

Next up, Cyanide Recordings has snatched up another Catacomb gem. This time, the rugged, high energy rocker 'Desert Storm' will share duties with a track by Kiwi futurists, Cern. Catalogue number not known at this time.

Over at the Syndrome Audio camp, a bunch of tunes have seen release over the last month. Rise From Ruin 12'', Syndrome Down LP featuring 'Foul Matter', and the soon to be Between The Bars EP, featuring Catacomb and Bulletproof.

PRSPCT Recordings has just seen the release of the Future Filth Ep, featuring the massively infectious 'Gut Wrench'. PRSPCT has also just signed 2 monsterous collabs featuring the Montreal fam, Subtone & Stalker. The 12'' will feature 'Battle Axe' and 'Overfiend'. No audio online atm.

Symptom is the new offshoot lable of Syndrome Audio, out of Holland. The first release see's Catacomb teaming up with Cern for the split 12, 'Bloodmuscle' b/w 'Shuddervision'.

And finally, Flatline Audio has signed 4 tracks for a forthcoming EP in the new year. 'Wipe Your Species' is an early highlight off the unfinished pack, and has become big favorite in Ed Rush's latest sets. Another collab with Kiwi Dave, aka Subtone, 'Stone Rose' also makes note. No audio online atm.

And now you're up to date.

Martsman Remix Of Recess

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Berlin's man of the hour and experimental scientist extrordinaire, Martsman, has just completed his remix to the original brilliance of Angelzero's 'Recess'.

Full of intelligent breaks, lush exotic atmospheres and edgy basslines, this gem is an instant eye opener and the next installment from US based Warm Communications. (<-- Audio for remix found here.) The flip features a twisted, glitched out ride to the farside in the ever intriguing 'Bluetone'. Both pieces highly original and essential.

Release details soon to follow, for now keep an eye on the DOA thread and show some love.

Big up EHL and Warm Comms!

Telemetrik - My Light Year


I have a strong feeling the new Telemetrik album will be one of if not THEE highlight of the year for drum and bass.

'My Lightyear' is due out later this year on Black Sun Empire Recordings. The 12'' sampler drops soon and features the monsterly epic 'Cosmos' and the brooding moody stepper, 'R.U.R.', an old collab with former partner Impulse, from Corrupt Souls fame.

Marcio is on some next level shit and again, this should be one of the brightest highlights for drum and bass this year and beyond. For more info, keep an eye on the Virb and Myspace pages, aswell as the DOA thread.

GO SPACEMAN!

Boston Recap

We took a little weekend getaway to Boston, MA last weekend. The weather was perfect, edging on the warm side for the begining of Fall, and it was not hard to fall in love with the city at all. We caught a Red Sox game on the Friday night. It just so happened that they clinched the Eastern Division title (their first since '95) that game and the city just erupted! People poured out into the streets to get their party on and celebrate the feat. Shit was hype! Gotta say, there is no other place like Fenway Park. You're in that stadium, and you're just surrounded by the passion, the history, the mystique. It's the mecha of Baseball. It's just surreal.

Boston is my kinda city and I can't wait to return.

Enjoy some pics!

Day 1





We satyed at the Boston Marriot Cambridge, right down the street from M.I.T., which features The Ray and Maria Stata Center, designed by Frank Gehry.
