'Brainfade' by Obsidian Wave

 


Way from the underground, Obsidian Wave returns with some freshness of his usual heavyweight beats. 'Brainfade' is the title of his 2-track digital release, coming through the UK established label, Torre - the right label for this purpose. Bare in mind that it is not a coincidence at all that the man himself has recently launched a new joint project among Skin Teeth and Rawtrachs called We Kill Culture. This project is just icing the cake and sums up the 140 bpm 'bass in your face' revolutionary sound that each one of them three deliver on their own.


" Is obsession the right word? There is certainly an element of need involved, but is this vital or fabricated? Is it a nurtured habit? A crutch? or is it something more substantial? I don't know, but what is hard to argue is that this need seems inexhaustible. The destination always fluid. Horizons shifting. The process often feels like trying to recreate the memory of a scent. It is an unattainable task that conversely has a validity of its own. "

Safe As ... Driller Killer


One of the hardest singles of this week!


Londoner Obsidian Wave makes his debut over Safe As Records. A 'young' label which is specified in the Nu-Rave sound and the continuation of that golden 90s rave vibe. They release anything from Breakbeat to Hardcore Techno and Hard Trance with a great back catalogue of releases so far, that won't disappoint anyone follow this type of raving sounds.
In addition to all these, the Safe As crew are also supporting the charity Young Minds (www.youngminds.org.uk) by donating 10% off all label profits to help out with this hard struggle of young people against mental health issues.

In regards with Obsidian Wave; he's been into the original Oldskool game since a very young age. Being influenced by illegal raves, pirate radios and the ultimate Hardcore & Jungle buzz, he's been producing high level tracks that have already hit the top charts of Beatport.
However, his brand new 'Driller Killer' single release on Safe As, is something quite different as it's a very raw, heavy and futuristic Breakbeat track for the dancefloor resurrection that's upon us. A magnificent combo of Electro with Big Beats, strictly for the headtrsong crew deep in the underground of authenticity.

'Driller Killer' comes out officially on digital format on 2nd April. A date that Bandcamp are waiving their fees again so all revenues go directly to the Artists and the Labels. A good addition and suggestion to any DJ out there and every fan of proper Nuskool Breaks music.
