'Ravin Nightz' :: The second album by Skooler & Flare

 

As aforementioned on several blog features in the past, Skooler & Flare are more than just an act. In case you slept on that you have to take a gander at their interview given to us here.

Their brand new sonic expedition is out now digitally under the title 'Ravin Nightz' and it marks their sophomore studio album that instantly stands out. Packed with 15 extravaganza nu-rave tunes with a diverse range of hardcore breaks till eurodance rhythms, the boys have returned on full tilt delivering anthemic tunes. This album is an ode to the 90's oldskool days implemented with passion and love for that era.

Trust the magic trio and you won't be disappointed at all.

The amazing new album by PRAYER

 

UK producer PRAYER has shown off his amazing work on the latest Spheres series via Rua Sound and has definetely earned his stripes in overall. His unique style is just so commendable and some times coveted due to the emotions enlightened through the ambience inside his productions. His very fresh album is entitled 'Now I Know Paradise' and it aims to take you on a long trip into a world of mysterious paths through his 13-mental journey  that transcends ambient odes to deep junglistic vibes. 

"This release is probably my most personal to date. I wanted to create something which flows freely whilst interconnected, that is perhaps not possible in Shorter form works. It is a story in eleven parts that focuses on exploring emotional depth; I’ve always been interested in emotion in music, which for anyone reading at a glance could sound self explanatory, but here the focus is really how an story can be told over the course of an hour and how this can then create a longer lasting impact for the listener. The tracks presented weave between a variety of different styles I’ve explored over the years, but are connected via their exploration of ecstatic sorrow and search for catharsis." - Prayer

 

Suffice to say that fans of Bicep and oldskool Intelligent D&B will certainly dig this top class material. A blend of contemporary electronic music with a rave aftermath - a late hours chill that one needs in the early morning...

The album comes out digitally via YUKU and it deserves every single penny!

Calling The Knite Club

This is undeniably one of the most significant and burgeoning joint raves in recent years. Calling The Hardcore, renowned as the best rave in the south, has earned acclaim from numerous rave fans following their recent announcement of a collaboration with the legendary Kniteforce Records. Suffice to mention that August's Knite Club, the second official rave of the KF 21st-century run, marked a resounding success - a proper party that resonated some memorable old-school events.

Following a positive contact between RadioSam (Calling The Hardcore) and the head honcho of Kniteforce, Luna-C, the collaboration came out under the title 'Calling The Knite Club.' It's worth noting that this rave will offer a truly unique experience, being held as a boat party! After the establishment of the KF radio station, various sub-labels, and KF distribution, the time has come to unite forces with Calling The Hardcore. This collaboration has generated unbelievable excitement, going down a storm with the first tickets already sold out. On behalf of this party, there is a new vinyl entitled 'Calling The Kniteforce Vol.1' including brand new tunes with the likes of Jimmy J & Cru-L-T, Z- Neo, Alex Jungle and Try Unity. Be there to grab a copy of it, simple as that...

MZA unveils his personal journey on a new album

 

MZA, the creative force behind Yen Disco Soundsystem, unleashes a personal compilation entitled 'Impermanence'. This personal odyssey is a sonic exploration of MZA's tunes, a convergence of jungle, breakbeat, house, and trip hop that reflects years of experimentation and deep-rooted love for the craft.

Aside tracks released through his 'dharma delight' EP as well as 'aerial break' featured on 'Strictly Nuskool Vol3', MZA features also a infusion of live one-take tracks, blurring the lines between studio work and the raw energy of live beat sessions. Tracks like "Third Eye / Chakra (Live)" and "Juzzy (Live)" showcase the wide depth of technical styles, from intricate finger drumming to meticulous sequencing. These live recordings, interspersed throughout the album, capture the essence of MZA's musical journey as he travels back to Japan.

However, this album is not just a collection of tracks; it's a profound acceptance of impermanence and an invitation to embrace the new journey that MZA has crafted. By fusing the old and the new, MZA invites listeners to join him on this sonic expedition.

'Impermanence' is out now via Bandcamp

'2097' :: The debut EP of Aerbreak on Duckland

Bristol based Duckland collective continues to be a beacon for emerging talents, and their latest offering showcases the vibrant beats of Manchester-based artist Aerbreak. Aged only 22 years old, Aerbreak (known also as Aflek in the D&B world) is carving out his niche in the electronic music scene, proving to be an indispensable force within the Reprobeats crew and earning his stripes as a resident on Militant Music.

Aerbreak first caught our attention through a charity compilation on Militant Music, and now he returns with his debut EP on Duckland, offering three fresh and snazzy bangers. The EP is titled '2097', which reminds a bit of Acen's '2092' and it is officially described as "a turbo-fueled forward-thinking take on the sound of 90s rave," - a sentiment that perfectly captures the essence of Aerbreak's high-energy tracks.

The beats are infectious, and the energy is relentless, making it clear that Aerbreak is an artist to watch closely as a new rising star over the Nu-Rave scene.

The EP is available digitally via Bandcamp so whether you're a seasoned rave enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, Aerbreak's debut EP is a must-listen, offering a refreshing and contemporary take on the iconic sounds of the 90s. Worth every signle penny and you won't regret it.
