Club Glow co-manager, Borai from Bristol, is the man behind the second official Vinyl release of this hard working collective from UK. An ideal work following up Mani Festo's debut and primary EP. This time, we're dealing with a masterpiece of futuristic Hardcore, a prophecy of a massive resurrection of nightlife clubbin and tracks that incarnate British underground spirit nowdays.
'Need U' is the title of this superb new weapon, with the self-titled soaring track (being also Borai's favorite) evoking the right optimism driven by euphoric vocals, infused with the right breakbeats. By far one of the best tracks of this year that will lead your soul to the gates of a rave that we all yearn to live up again. The time is now! On the flipside, you can find 'Yellow' a lush track that you'll surely dig especially if you're a fan of Coco Bryce timbre, for instance. Closing with an Oldskool '93 darkside vibe translated into a 140 tip for 'Shadow Realm' and you should not sit out on these monstrous beats. Strictly for the headstrong!
Only available on Bandcamp and very selected physical record stores. Limited to 300 copies

West Midlands finest Hardcore Breaks DJ, the man who fills us all with his energy every Saturday over Distinctfm.com has just released his very own official weapon (of choice). DJ CHZ signs his first EP on 4 The Core Recordings, including four belters that he's been working over the last decade playing them out on his shows but never under a release. Full credits to Mark from 4 The Core, who tucked into CHZ stuff and 'grabbed' his tracks instantly. First of all 'The V-10 Project Vol.1' means that we should expect a Volume 2. Till then there's a class Hardcore material pumping inside this digital release, that we should not sit out. Either you're a DJ or even a fan of today's Hardcore Breaks sound, this EP drives an absolutely jaw dropping frequency.
Reppin '91-'92 styles, DJ CHZ blends ideally Belgian sounds and hoovers with classic rave stabs, junglistic amens, bleeps and pianos. All told can be found on this banging release, where's even a quality sampling of LFO and Nebulla II, which is one of the highlights.
And as he stated:
"Oi Oi crew happy freakin friday well I'm super excited to say the wait is over and heres' why I've been so quiet on here as you guys know or if you dont know I was approached by the guys at 4 The Core Recordings about releasing some of my tracks on their amazing hardcore label which most of you have heard on my regular 'Hardcore Uproar' shows from when the label started out . So without hesitation I snapped the chance up in a flash and boooom here I am on 4 The Core Recordings crew with my debut EP 'The V -10 Project Vol 1'. Check out the clips of the tracks from the ep right here, I'm soooooooo excited crew, take a listen share it around and grab yourself a copy. Big big respekz to you all for your support it means alot crew oiiiiiiii oiiiiiiiiii"
Brace yourselves from some utterly militant amen junglism from team Destroy Oh Boy aided and abetted by Ark!Tek, Sum, Wombcorps and The Archangel
Hold on to your teeth while listening to Ark!Tek's 'Old Screwed' starting in half time mentasm mode before a brain rattling breakcore beat hits, hammers and assaults the senses!!!! Hard, relentless and on point amen break manipulation!!!!
Sum's 'Trailer Park Mishap' has a halloweeny feel about it. Its as if the darkcore sound of 1993 had a new refit for 2021 and boy is it dark, brutal, bass heavy and utterly terrifying!!! JB's Funky Drummer hurtles along at breakneck speed in time to a series of gut wrenching sonic booms!!!
The Archangel offers a bit of calm after the absolute storm of the first two tracks. 'Yuri On Fire' builds to a powerful crescendo of emotive piano over a lean 2 step beat. Gradually the amens come in as the piano peaks and peaks and peaks some more!!!!
Its back to the Breakcore for the rapid breaks of Wombcorps' 'RIP Fotze.' Those amens quite literally crash in and thrash around a series of dancehall reggae samples in this mind melting closing track!!!!
One of the best newbie Hardcore Breaks labels born during this pandemic; are ready to release their sophomore incredible EP. 'The Fucking Grateful EP' by the amazing Hardcore Daddy Luna-C is a proper jaw dropping record that you have to add to your collection, right now.
All along, Chris achieves once again to invade the dancefloors with his storming and unique Hardcore breakbeats that's he's known for. Three original mixes under the wings of Chris Luna-C plus a remix (coming out digitally only) by Second Drop badboys, Bradders and The Lowercase.
'...Anyway, my “Fucking Grateful” EP has been widely commented upon, usually things like “its the best Luna-C in ages", which if true, is quite annoying because I gave it to my friends at SDR rather than selfishly keeping it haha!'
Tracks like 'Burn Inside' are always a good reason to remind you not to drag your feet and if you're on the fence, then just act off the cuff and show support to this great company of the 'new generation' of Kniteforce people.
Beware of an ultimate Hardcore Breaks exposuse, square and fair vinylized including tracks that have been promoted a lot by Kniteforce Radio.
Deadly Nightshade is one of our favorite producers on this blog and his brand new release is an invigorating and proud Dark breaks track. 'Secrets of Mind' is inspired a lot from the Orbital as the producer behind has revealed adding also his well known elements and trancy paths. A hefty new tune, which is already supported by The Nastysquad over Pulse FM, net station based on Kent/UK. And, it's calling every Nu-Rave lover's adulation to Deadly Nighshade's fresh dark weapon.

US based producer NEOREV has recently uploaded a lost album that meant to be his very first personal release, however it saw the light last week. Better late than never you can tell, for an absolutely banging stuff like this one above. You shouldn't sit this one out and apparently a must to add to your collection as it goes down a storm.
Traveling At A High Velocity On A Downward Trajectory' is comprised of 27 tracks worked around 2002-2005, varied of styles and definetely inspired a lot by The Prodigy, which has been one of the top influences by NEOREV. Expect smashing beats and 90s retrospective rave under his very own formula of creativity.
Noteworthy to mention to anyone purchasing the album and showing some support till 5th March, there will be sent an exclusive bonus EP from that era of NR.
"Before 2009's album Lines & Shapes, I was working on what was supposed to be the first official Neorev album. I only started messing with electronic music production in 2000. I was playing drums in various alternative rock bands at the time. In 2002, I decided it was time to make a proper album and began writing tracks for it. It was under the working title "Traveling At A High Velocity On A Downward Trajectory." Don't ask me where it came from. I just liked how it sounded. One of my tracks was featured on the Brainkiller Prodigy fan community's Music From The Jilted Generation compilation, which caused quite a stir. A music producer community called BK Music One grew out of it, and tracks like "Crank This Shit Up," "Do It Like That," and "Coming On Strong" were getting some buzz. I graduated high school around this time. I was sharing tracks with friends and in the BK Music One community. I wanted to deliver a full on heavy rave album. I would continue writing music well into 2005 with the hopes of releasing it in early 2006. Sadly, a hard drive crash wiped away those 3 years worth of work. The album was probably around 80% done at the time. All I had left were demos in various states of being finalized. Over the years, I still see some of those old tracks pop up on people's YouTube pages. So I figured, after nearly 20 years, it's time to share it with the world. For the first time ever, people will be able to hear the full raw and unfinished album. When I was making it, I was a newbie still trying to find my voice. Just a kid having fun making hard beats and noise. I was in love with 90s warehouse rave and the energy surrounding it. Well, now is your chance to hear what that naive teenager was up to. Album includes 12 bonus tracks and additional artwork. Check bonus items for text file with link to original raw and unmastered demos.
FOR THOSE WHO SHOW THEIR SUPPORT BY DONATING AND PURCHASING THE ALBUM FROM NOW UNTIL END OF DAY MARCH 5th, 2021, YOU WILL ALSO RECEIVE AN E-MAIL WITH A SPECIAL DOWNLOAD CODE FOR AN EXCLUSIVE BONUS EP! MY WAY OF SAYING THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT. -NR"
Sheffield's dexterous trio of Denham Audio don't rest on their laurel and they keep still their nose to the grindstone producing as many tracks as they can, in order to fight against these hard times we're living with their creativity weapon. Their brand new record is signed on their good friends over Lobster Theremin, a remarkable label run by Asquith, representing the sound of the future in House, Techno and Breaks music.
'Transcendence' is the name of their record, comprised of five new tracks.
"Club Culture is a heady tribute to UK rave culture, combining classic breaks with a monologue from generations past. Denham Audio speed things up on Retort, fusing their love of breakbeats with a sound palette ubiquitous with acid house. On the flip, patois bars punctuate the bleeps-and-breaks of Run Da Ting, while the vocal layered between Top Boy’s whirling bass and digitally distorted drum programming may be recognisable to some. Closing track Transcendence is an ethereal jungle roller with guest vocals from 7ip7o3, that rings true to its name."
As we've already warned you, beware of this amazing Club Glow team of Denham Audio, Borai, Mani Festo. They've thrived though music and they carry a distinguished and contemporary UK Rave style. Anything off their consistent arsenal is always interesting and efficient.
'Transcendence' comes out on 12th March via Lobster Theremin, available digitally and on limited black 12" Vinyl, colour printed centre stickers with white reverse board sleeve & white inner paper inner.
