A stunning Hardcore Breakbeat breeze from Finland

 


A1. Aeon Four - Ruffer
A2. Nervous + Anxious - Immersion
B1. Infekto - Lift Off
B2. Prime Time - Hypnotic Hardcore


One of the longest underground Drum & Bass/Breakbeat labels of Finland, Straight Up Breakbeat are back with a new weapon, setting the curve ideally on a brand new Hardcore influenced Vinyl series under the name 'FLATLINERS'.
This new series aims to deliver, transcend and showcase again some of the local soldiers of the label, offering Hardcore Breaks and Jungle of contemporary quantity and quality.

The first installment is out now introduced by the sounds of well known acts to fans of this Blog, and Hardcore fans in general.
Kicking off with the brothers Matti and Heikki Sato-Hunsala known as Aeon Four who deliver a sought-after Jungle Breaks track by the name 'Ruffer'. A classic 140 bpm formula cooked up under the wings of this duo of talented brothers in a crime.
A2 side finds two well known suspects within the Nu-Rave game since the golden days of Hardcore Breaks, the mighty Nervous + Anxious. Back after a while with a very good row of new tracks, the boys know the right way to create an intensive Breakbeat track getting it back to square one of the early 90s beauty.
On the flipside, the legendary Infekto returns after his successful junglistic personal EP over Mystery City, spinning a proto Jungle track by the name 'Lift Off'. This producer is totally reppin the year 1994. A wonderful consecutive track on his usual tempo.
Last but not least, it's Prime Time (one half of the legendary duet, Samuel & Nasley). For anyone unaware of this remarkable duo, they've been on the first Finnish acts creating Drum & Bass since mid-90s. However, this featured track is something quite different written in the first days of 90s and it's determined to lock your soul on a .. warehouse.

All in all, it's totally worth giving some follow to this amazing label from Finland, getting to know it's collective and all hard working people behind it, as well as to stay close to this aspring series of Vinyl releases. More to follow as it seems.
Till then, you may grab this big 12" Vinyl in some major shops that can be found on the link above.
Conclusion: Finland is forever Hardcore!
