New D&B Releases
NONPLUS006 Nothing Is Certain LP 12” Sampler – ASC Nonplus Records 12″ Vinyl
This is the 12″ sampler for ‘Nothing Is Certain’. The main event is set to follow very shortly after. The wait is nearly over! The Autonomic crew have been at the forefront of the movement currently breathing new life into Drum & Bass music. Whether through their fantastic series of podcasts or releases on DBridge’s Exit & Instra:Mental’s NonPlus record labels, people are starting to take notice. No stranger to DnB himself with releases under his belt on Covert Ops and Nu-Directions to name a few, producer James Clements aka ASC was called up in late 2009 for the 3rd release on Nonplus, and the rest is history. With his tracks being featured on dBridge & Instra:mental’s recent Fabriclive mix & ASC is a name you’re going to be hearing a lot more of.

NONPLUSLP001 Nothing Is Certain LP – ASC Nonplus Records 12″ Vinyl x 3
Since his first appearance on Nonplus, ASC has been hard at work on his LP and its finally here. Starting with a 12” sampler he dives right in at the deep end with ‘Phobos’ in which electronic grooves and micro samples entwine against a backdrop of dramatic tones and industrial hits. Followed on the same side by the atmospheric hiatus ‘Oort Cloud’ you have a good inclination of the impending album by now, but are also treated to the AA-side ‘Matter Of Time’. Like a continuation of his debut Nonplus 12” track ‘Porcelain’, his
crafty use of oriental sounding percussion, windlike sounds and melodies combined with an efficacious bass line make this track very hard to listen to in its entirety before you reach for the reset. The album touches on many genres from start to finish such as the 4×4 offering of ‘Textura’, or the almost indescribable step of ‘Yatta’, but one common theme that this album holds throughout is the amalgamation of influences derived from all genres of music and ASC’s ability to combine these to create something new and unique. Collaborations with fellow Nonplus artist Vaccine and Exit Records artist Consequence add fuel to the fire, keeping it burning hot from start to finish. Nonplus Records proudly present…….…..ASC – “Nothing Is certain”
a ASC – Absent Mind
b ASC – Fade Away Seasons (Ft. Consequence)
c ASC – Lost For Words
d ASC – The Depths
e ASC – The Ubiquity Incident
f ASC – Opus (Ft. Vaccine)

TRNSL006 Denile / A Chain Of Red – Grimm & Nusense / Resound Translation Records 12″ Vinyl
Translation Recordings is proud to unveil the first pairing of tunes from debut LP/compilation “Without Borders.” Rinsed by DJs to include Grooverider, Anile, Sinistarr, and Stunna, “Denile” is a collaboration between Canada-based artists Grimm & Nusense. The duo deliver a stripped-back and cavernous steppa, with deep low-end rumble, acid squelches, and reverberated dubstyle chords. The flip welcomes the return of Translation veteran and Finnish dnb all-star Resound in the futuristic sounds of “A Chain of Red,” where floating synth pads weave through a crunchy, 8-bit tone sequence. Spliced drum edits at the drop quickly change the uplifting opening vibe into a more sinister and moody one that is charged by an electrified synth bass wall. Meanwhile, a combination of congas, snares, and hi-hats punch in and out of the mix to give this monster of a tune its staccato percussive core. These dance floor oriented tracks represent only a small sliver of the spectrum and vibe covered by the “Without Borders” LP/compilation, which will be available in the coming weeks on CD & digital download featuring exclusives from Solar Empire, ASC, Mindmapper, DBR (UK), Marginal, Dub Phizix, Edward Oberon, Stranjah, Theory, Slider, and Expose. Keep it locked!

BMT004 Natural History Remixes: Part 2 – Blu Mar Ten Blu Mar Ten 12″ Vinyl
Finish copy promo. Where the album version of ‘By The Time My Light Reaches You I’ll be Gone’ was slow and contemplative, Klute grabs it by the scruff of the neck and gives it a good shake-down with a frantic percussion section while maintaining the strong melodies and progressions of the original. The result is a stunning blend of subtlety and impact, perfect listening whether you’re on the dancefloor or off it. Continuing his high-speed ascendance, d&b’s new kid on the block, Stray, justifies the hype with his superb rendition of ‘If I Could Tell You’. Hammering the original components into a richter-scale headnod, the aggression of his beats is beautifully offset with a subtle yet umissable reinterpretation of the bassline. Sounding completely different to virtually anything else in the genre, Stray’s irresistible remix has been waking up sleepy clubs all over the world, and must now rank as having one of the highest “what’s-this-tune-m8?’ ratios on the circuit right now. A genuine ear-worm. DJ support is coming in from right across the scene, including London Elektricity, Friction, Doc Scott, Lynx, John B, Nookie and many more

While djing and holding residencies at the most famous clubs in the capital of Austria (Beat It at Flex and All Souled Out at Roxy), they both decided – independently – to start to produce the music they love and like to hear on the floor. This was 4 years ago. After developing some skills and their own workflow, they decided to collaborate in the second half in 2008 and since then, their easy going work bears fruit. Sunrise – BMK / Coda (Zen Remix) Zen has come to Audio Danger Records.. Need we say more? Zen has joined our team to do a remix of BMK and Coda’s track Sunrise. The original version never saw the light of day but zen heard it through the grape vine and jumped at the chance to put his spin on this track. With vocals from Jett and live guitar from Sam Phillips, it satisfies all the Drum and Bass crew from the liquid lovers to the jump up heads.. This tune is a must for all.

NONPLUS008 We Speak To Those / Hi Res – Kassem Mosse Nonplus Records 12″ Vinyl
Hailing from Leipzig in Germany is an artist who’s music has been pricking up many ears across the global underground over the last few years. It’s hard to put a finger on what it is about Kassem Mosse’s productions that make repeated listening a must, but the intricacy, fresh arrangements and musical depth definitely play a part in attracting labels such as the highly respected techno imprint Workshop, the legendary Soma Records and now Nonplus are honoured to present his latest 12”.
a) Kassem Mosse – ‘We Speak to Those’ First up on the a-side we have ‘We Speak to Those’ a 4/4 track of the highest quality that keeps you guessing from start to finish. The rugged and raw kick and bassline immediately set the foundations for the incoming awkward chord stabs whilst reversed beats lazily slur in and out over the main groove giving the track the unnerving feeling that its almost changing tempo. Random sound effects and a non conforming arrangement make this track about as predictable as the English summer. One listen to this and you’ll immediately understand why this artist is getting love from some of the scenes biggest players at the moment.
aa) Kassem Mosse – ‘Hi Res’ Phased drum machine breakbeat patterns and stutered percussion redolent of the early Detroit techno uprising give this track an outstanding quality of being able to conjure up the same feelings of hope and optimism for electronic music that the aforementioned era managed to. Thought provoking chord progressions take your mind on an excursion to the future and leave you gagging for an extended trip. Think skyways, flying cars and towering metal buildings footed with dark abysmal underworlds and you’ll get the drift. They don’t come much deeper than this one.
