Been living under a rock? No? Well, in that case, you won’t need to be told about the achievements of Manchester’s North Base. Together, team members Silver, Splice, and Prophecy have released on an eye-watering array of the world’s biggest DnB labels, and appeared on stages most deejays can only dream of. Basically, they’re a big deal. And now, following up their almighty collaboration with Erb N Dub, Punk Rock, they’re back on Technique with some brand new dynamite. Continue reading

Caspa – The Nothing (taken from the Vibrations Series) [Sub Soldiers]
Nothing always leads to something… Eventually. The blank canvas. The empty mind. The quiet room. Space waiting to be filled with thought, ideas, colours, shades, vibrations. Vibrations like the ones Caspa has been firing out on the regular since late 2016. One track head shots, each and every: focussed, firm and resolute in their underground nature and energy, they’ve been some of the darkest, heaviest, grittiest club tracks the dubstep pioneer has ever released. Continue reading
2DB – Leave [Technique Recordings]
It’s been a while since we’ve seen Drumsound & Bassline Smith’s rough-edged alter-ego 2DB make an appearance. In fact, the last time the Technique bosses’ slightly more evil doppelgangers showed up was in 2015, when they delivered the masterpieces of filth Terrahawk, Check Out the Bounce, and Quaalude. So, have those two years away dulled the raucous sensibilities of the 2DB style? Continue reading
Youngman – Spinning [Technique Recordings]
Youngman’s been doing 2017 properly. You’ll have heard him on Radio 1 featuring on tracks by the likes of Phantasy & Macky Gee and Wilkinson. You might well have caught him lyrically killing a rave or a huge festival stage. And you’ll certainly have heard his triumphant return to Technique Recordings with Sorry and his multi-part follow-up by the name of Spinning. In fact, the third part of that project has just landed, and it takes us on an unpredictable journey. Continue reading
Document One – How Low Can You Get? / Girl [Technique Recordings]
Without compromise, without fuss, the Document One boys have established themselves as certified production dons. They’ve managed to weave strands from soul, jazz, hip- hop, techno and funk together into something that’s always just a bit unpredictable. Well, that’s not quite true. The one thing you can predict with certainty is that, every time, they’ll do some serious damage in the dance. And here’s their new release to prove it. Continue reading
Navigator – Alignment [Liondub-ODT Muzik]
His undying passion, commitment and consistency, reinforced by steely focus and determination, has finally led to the release of Navigator’s debut album ‘Alignment’. Continue reading
Simon Bassline Smith (Smith Inc) – Palomino / Sty-Le [Absolute 2 Records]
Time for some history. We’re going back before Technique Recordings, before the team-up with Drumsound, even before drum ‘n’ bass existed as a genre. We’re going back to 1991, when Simon Bassline Smith made an indelible mark on the on the rave scene with his label Absolute 2. Those were the days when his imprint brought us the early work of soon-to-be-legends like Doc Scott and Nookie. Now, with newly remastered versions of some Absolute 2 classics, Mr Smith’s reminding us why he’s been big in the game since day. Continue reading
Annix – The Dog Knows [Playaz Recordings]
Since Annix’s last release, Jungle Consumes Everything on Playaz in November last year, we’ve been sitting tight for the follow up. Enter The Dog Knows, a full on stomping EP packed with Drum & Bass gems. Continue reading
Youngman – Spinning (Sunset Mix) [Technique Recordings]
There can’t be many DnB emcees and vocalists who’ve written songs for Britney Spears, released tunes on Digital Soundboy, V Recordings and Technique, and toured with Wilkinson. In fact, there’s exactly one. Youngman. And now he’s back on Technique Recordings to push the art of vocal DnB a few notches further. Continue reading
