Dalenn - Gutta / Desolation

Wicked Jungle Records

Dalenn returns to Wicked Jungle with a pair of proper heaters! This two-track journey through the murkiest corners of the jungle/dnb spectrum delivers exactly what Dalenn is known for-hard, dark drum & bass with rugged beats and zero compromise.

First up, Gutta has been rumbling in the underground on dub for months. Bouncing breaks scatter and ricochet off rain-soaked gutters and alley walls, while dirty, grimy synth growls and sub-heavy 808s deliver a relentless barrage of jungle pressure-raw, rugged, and straight from the beatdown urban streets.

On the flip, Desolation conjures visions of barren wastelands, flattened cities, and pure ruin-and the track lives up to the name. From the first ominous snare to the final, soul-crushing amen, Dalenn unleashes a jungle tune that leaves dancefloor devastation in its wake. The composition showcases some of his finest breakbeat editing to date, with expertly chopped amens weaving through gritty, rolling drums and a clean, sonically powerful reese bassline.

A welcome return to Wicked Jungle indeed.

PopeJohn storms onto Wicked Jungle Records with Vibrations/The Gift, a two-track assault that pushes the boundaries of darkstep and tech-driven drum & bass.

Vibrations channels the unrelenting force of darkside Drum & Bass, delivering jittery, two-step drum patterns that rattle the senses. Ominous, drawn-out basslines grind beneath apocalyptic atmospheres, haunting choruses loom over the chaos, setting the tone for a dystopian ride.

On the flip, The Gift twists the narrative into a collision of precision breakbeats and controlled madness. Chopped and spliced breakbeats carve through growling bass distortions, glitch-infused mutations, and ethereal pads that evoke both tension and transcendence. It's a sonic paradox-beautiful yet menacing, calculated yet chaotic.

With Vibrations/The Gift, PopeJohn cements his place among the architects of the underground. This is drum & bass in its rawest, most unfiltered form-no compromise, no escape.

Wicked Jungle Records presents Kundalini, a transcendent new single from the visionary Marc OFX. Inspired by the ancient concept of Kundalini, Marc OFX channels this idea of awakening and spiritual ascension into a captivating journey through sound.

True to his signature style, Kundalini blends ethnic instrumentation, experimental guitar techniques, and intricate soundscapes to evoke a sense of rising energy and profound introspection. The track's dynamic rhythms and evolving textures mirror the uncoiling energy associated with Kundalini, all while skirting the boundaries of Jungle and Drum & Bass.

Marc OFX invites listeners to experience the awakening-both musical and spiritual-with Kundalini.

Ion Drive Music proudly presents the Reflections EP, a journey into the darker, grittier realms of drum and bass crafted by the enigmatic Raket. Across three electrifying tracks, Raket showcases a masterful blend of foreboding atmospheres, hypnotic vocal snippets, and raw, reese-fueled basslines.

The title track, Reflections, invites listeners to look inward while paying homage to the early days of Jungle and Drum & Bass. Rolling breakbeats and a haunting vocal chorus create a heavy yet nostalgic energy, making this an instant classic. Where Are Ya dives deeper into the chaos, delivering a relentless techstep barrage of call-and-response drum patterns, steeped in the genre's rich heritage. Finally, Catalyst offers a grimy slice of breakbeat wizardry, its spliced rhythms and techno-inspired vocal motifs locking you into a heady trance.

With the Reflections EP, Raket cements his position as a forward-thinking artist who honors the roots of the genre while pushing its boundaries. Prepare to be transported.

Opius delivers a masterclass in Drumfunk Drum & Bass with 'Ecliptic' . True to his signature style, the track weaves pulsating basslines, intricate percussion, and celestial melodies into a tapestry of immersive sound. The vibrant peaks and dynamic contrasts showcase Opius' ability to captivate the listener, taking them on a rhythmic voyage through deep grooves and ethereal layers.

Perfect for fans of forward-thinking jungle and deep electronic soundscapes, 'Ecliptic' reaffirms Opius' place as a visionary artist in the genre.

Okee makes a welcome return to Wicked Jungle Records with the forthcoming 'Innerscence EP'. A three track selection of warm and soothing drum & bass cuts to brighten up these Autumnal days.

The gorgeous, pad driven 'Toku' opens up this collection in a playful manner with its skipping bassline, female vocal sighs and stepping breaks.

Title track 'Innerscence' introduces us to phat synth-bass melodies and jazzy elements layered over a crisp, rolling break pattern which evolves into a devastating, melancholic midsection.

'Kiiroi' takes on a sumptuous, jazz and bass excursion complete with double bass notes, descending synth notes and electrifying amen break snippets.

Okee manages to merge disparate elements such as late '90's, jazz tinged drum & bass, vintage pad flavoured techno and adds a pinch of dub and jungle to mix. If you like your D&B eclectic and with emotive impact then the 'Innerscence EP' has just what you need.

Opius brings his signature drumfunk sound into the dark side on The Darkest Angel. Sophisticated drum breaks are chopped and scattered with precision over a sound bed of textures that take us deep into a netherworld of dark pads juxtaposed by the twisted chanting of gothic monks. If you enjoy deep dark moods and killer breaks this is for you!
