FKOF Premiere!

Depth, drive and atmosphere define ‘Keep Swimming’, where FKOF familia @k-o-d-a-m-a operating at full 140 precision. A producer long celebrated for his balance of light and darkness, he returns with a masterwork that captures his unmistakable craft: swaggering percussion, enthralling FX touches and a humongous drop specifically built for system weight.

Rolling grooves, emotive melodies and meticulous sound design carry the release into higher dimensions. Every element feels intentional, every shift reinforcing why Kodama remains one of the most distinctive voices in the spectrum right now.

Get 'IFSDIGI022' through all digital vendours, by clicking the pre-order attached. It's bangin'... @infernal_sounds certified, set for release on 12/12/2025.

FKOF Promo!

We’re back with the latest FatKidOnFire Records release (a heater even if we say so ourselves), just in time for the end of 2025 and the start of a few new outings for the imprint. We’ve three or four digital releases in the bag or at mastering, so you might be hearing more from us and the FKOF fam in the near future. But before we get ahead of ourselves, here’s FKOFd062…

The 'Railgun' EP is available via our bandcamp for pre-order now, and drops 12/12/25. It's then available at Beatport two weeks after, 26/12/25, and goes on general release two weeks after that.

1. OTTO & SAIBOD (ZYCH) - Michael Craw


2. OTTO & SAIBOD (ZYCH) - Perleberg


3. OTTO & SAIBOD (ZYCH) - Railgun


4. OTTO & SAIBOD (ZYCH) - Conclusion Y


5. OTTO & SAIBOD (ZYCH) - Conclusion X [FKOFd062 Free Download]

'FKOF (when it started to solely focus on 140bpm in the early 2010s) was designed to champion new talent - creating a platform (& what is now FKOF Records some 15 years later) to help up-and-coming producers monetise their material. In our heyday, we were releasing EPs every month - often off the back of a fairly quick gut reaction on receiving demos. Did the material fit FKOF; was it pure beats, bass and space vibes? Here we are in 2025, still doing the same thing. And we're welcoming two nascent 140 artists to the family with a decent flag in the sand for why you should get to know the Berlin-based duo...

'OTTO & SAIBOD joined forces a while ago under the ZYCH moniker to release on labels like Locus Sound, TooMuchCollective and more. When we somehow ended up on their dubs mailer, a few tunes caught our collective ear and here (as it often goes) we are a few months later with an EP. 'FKOFd062' opens with 'Michael Craw', laying the foundations of what comes throughout the record. Sparsely built, but well furnished, tunes with crisp percussion, heavyweight sub behaviour and eyes down, fingers up atmospheres. Track two, 'Perleberg', clatters about with its locomotive synths and takes it up a notch. Things really kick off with 'Railgun', however, and it's unsurprisingly the tune we wanted first (and built the rest of the EP around). Sonic warfare, with a FKOF Records logo on it. We close the EP out with 'Conclusion Y' - which is joined by FKOFd062 Free Download (grab on our band camp) 'Conclusion X' - ending on a ZYCH-induced high. We rate this duo and we think you should, too.



'Sometimes, things just come together nice and simple. 'FKOFd062' is a record that's done exactly that. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do. And get to know OTTO, SAIBOD and ZYCH. Big things coming from them!'

FKOF Premiere!

French dubstepper @ads-oner brings his wobbler ‘Ganzfeld’ to @jahtek: a cut that embodies his trademark blend of old-school weight and modern detail. Deep resonances, refined drum sequencing and high-pitched textures collide with intricate percussion, a salute to the 'deep heads' and that classic murdah sound.

This four-tracker named the 'Fubar EP' shows ADS1 in rare form: volatile low-end motion, warped spatial design and nocturnal melodic touches reminiscent of early D1 and Skream, pushing between grit and atmosphere with a clear 'less is more' philosophy. Late night bangers!

With the Bandcamp release of 'JT012' set for 12/12/2025, followed by the worldwide release on 19/12/2025, make sure to hit the buy-link attached to support both artist & imprint.

Prolific Canadian heavyweight and FKOF familia @abstraktsonance steps onto the imprint with ‘The Whole Night' EP: a four-track barrage of chest-rattling bassweight built to dominate the late hours.
