Porto's @3wa returns to @infernalsounds with the ‘Phyrexian’ EP, delivering four cuts loaded with some proper rough & tough Dubstep flavours. Following the impact of his 'Scavenger' release, the Portugese producer pushes things forward once again, moving between sub-heavy stompers, warped wobblers and deeper sound system territory. We’re premiering the EP’s closing cut, ‘Multiple Personalities’.

'Multiple Personalities' strips things right back, pulling the listener into deeper atmospheres and expansive mindscapes. Rich textures and subtle details creep through the mix as restrained percussion and low-end weight set a hypnotic pace. Less about brute force and more about carefully controlled tension: a uniquely crafted early-set weapon that sets the tone with understated confidence.

'IFSDIGI025' is set for release on 21/08/2026 thru all digital vendours, so hit the buy-link and bag "one of them biggies".. 3WA spesh!

@cid-poitier steps forward with his ‘Earth Chakra’ EP, a four-track project born from an intensive period spent diving deeper into piano, scales, chords and the never-ending rabbit hole that is music theory. From roughly 15–20 sketches created during those months, four ideas made the final cut :each translating that exploration into Cid Poitier’s own corner of bass music.

Norea channels that musical exploration into a deep, carefully constructed journey where melody and low-end work hand in hand. Thoughtful progression and subtle musical details give the track an organic sense of movement, while enough weight remains underneath to keep things firmly grounded in soundsystem territory. Another reminder that there’s always more to discover when you dig beneath the surface.

‘Earth Chakra EP’ is set for release on 21/08/2026. Don't forget to press the buy-link to bag this beautiful EP...

Netherlands-based and notorious producer @mob-killa links up with @iant. for ‘Zebes’, the title track from their forthcoming 'Zebes' EP. The release dives headfirst into an experimental, otherworldly universe, moving through strange transmissions, ghostly atmospheres and sounds seemingly pulled from somewhere 'down below'.

'Zebes' is a hi-hat-driven earthtwister, fuelled by alienated FX, twisted delays and an relentless, penetrative subbass. Switch-ups in the kick patterns and distant voices push things further into the unknown before an ice-cold pad creeps across the stereo image ahead of the second drop. From there, minimal beats and next-level drum patterns take control, with tweaky details and flashes of old-school Distance-esque atmosphere providing enough nightmare fuel for the faint of heart.

'ENTR:008' lands 18/08/2026, so make sure to hit the buy-link attached to support two dons of producers.

Bristol producer @how-du makes his full debut on @pressuredome with 'Metal Will Reign'. After standout appearances on two Pressure Dome compilations, the eight-track release sees him broaden his signature deep two-step sound into Dub Techno, downtempo and immersive soundsystem territory. We're premiering the low-end rumbler called ‘C Gate’.

'C Gate' dives into the darker side of the EP, pairing haunting vocal fragments and alien sound design with cavernous sub pressure and spacious half-time rhythms. Dubbed-out textures and intricate percussion create an immersive, slow-burning journey, balancing tension and atmosphere with effortless precision. Deep, hypnotic and built for the system, it's a standout from an exceptional debut.

'PDT002' is available on high-bias cassette tape with transparent orange tape, coming with on-body printing and double-sided J-Card insert. Act fast: only 50 in circulation + digital pre-order of the 'Metal Will Reign' EP...

Following the release of ‘The Rain’ and ‘Mirage’, @nomine_aka_outrage returns with ‘Filthy’, the 3rd chapter in the 'Dance To Nomine' project. Featuring the return of Moroccan vocalist Zeyneb, the track revisits the Middle Eastern-inspired melodies and instrumentation of Mirage, but shifts them into a far darker and more aggressive landscape.

Built around an 87 BPM pulse, 'Filthy' blends crushing halftime rhythms, gritty breakbeats and distorted bass with haunting vocal chants, hypnotic textures and cinematic sub pressure. Ancient influences collide with modern bass music production, creating a track that's become a staple in Nomine's recent DJ sets, effortlessly bridging slower grooves and heavyweight drum & bass while staying true to the movement-focused philosophy behind the 'Dance To Nomine' series.

After a brief hiatus from production, @fienduk returns to @chord-marauders with the 'Hiatus' EP. Building on the foundations of his acclaimed 'Glow' EP, the release stays true to Charlie Satchell's unmistakable sound, blending meticulous drum programming, shimmering synth work and silky sub pressure. We're premiering ‘Ascension’, a friendly collaboration with label head co-honcho Geode.

'Ascension' is a masterclass in tension and release. Entrancing pads linger long after they arrive, while warm, soothing subs lay the foundation beneath intricate percussion. A brooding build-up erupts into an overwhelming second drop, complete with a clever kick-pattern switch that will catch any true sound system enthusiast off guard. Deep, immersive and effortlessly weighty, this is Chord Marauders at its finest.

'CM023' is set for release on 30/07/2026, so hit up the buy-link attached to support real soundsystem music...

Amsterdam imprint @whos-susan returns with 'SUDAN046', welcoming Utrecht duo @softclipsoftclip and their second EP named ‘Heat Death’. We’re premiering the title track, a blistering cut that captures the duo’s bold fusion of UK Funky rhythms, Dubstep weight and warped Club experimentation.

Built around infectious percussion and twisted low-end movement, 'Heat Death' as title tracker thrives on controlled chaos. Syncopated grooves collide with gritty bass textures and relentless energy, resulting in a track that feels equally at home on sweaty dancefloors and heavyweight sound systems. Dirty, uncompromising and impossible to ignore, it’s a fitting statement from Utreg's exciting Bass act.

'SUDAN046' is set for release world-wide on 24/07/2026 onwards, so hit the buy-link attached to support this Dutch goodness...
