Premiere: Qua Rush – Anahata

We’ve got a proper roller for you today with some unusual musical flourishes and an old school sampling aesthetic as Qua Rush lands on Tesseract Recordings! Anahata features a catchy soul vocal sample and some iconic trills from what sounds like a harpsichord, layered over a groaning tech bassline and rolling breaks with tons of cymbal energy. Serious energy! Look for this one coming April 12th at all good stores…

Premiere: David Louis – Fluid

East and West collide on today’s premiere as Toronto beatsmith David Louis lands on China’s Mettasonic imprint with a sick slice of halftime business. As we’ve come to expect from Louis there are hints of the classic jungle sound and plenty of heavyweight bass to keep the track moving along; wicked stuff. Look for this alongside three other brand new beats coming March 24th.

Fade – Limacon EP

As those with their finger on the pulse in the D&B scene may already be aware, Ukrainian producer Fade recently suffered catastrophic hearing loss, leaving him unable to produce (or even listen to) music. Not only has this left the scene without one of its most underrated talents, it’s also left Fade unable to make money since music was his only form of income, and the only remedy for the condition is a set of eye-watteringly expensive high-end hearing aids.

With that in mind, Fade has released a new EP of his best dubs from before the hearing loss, with all proceeds going towards the five thousand euro required to fix his hearing. Featuring some sick rollers and massive dancefloor smashers, it’d be well worth your attention regardless of the tragic circumstances; it’s doubly worth your attention with that factored in as well. Check out the tracks below and hit up Bandcamp to grab a copy, or donate directly via his crowdfunding campaign. Please give generously!

Premiere: Invadhertz – Battle Lines (feat. MC Gusto)

Addictive Behaviour keep the releases flowing with a new EP from Italian production duo Invadhertz. Battle Lines sees them recruiting MC Gusto (who you should recognise from his work with DLR over the years) for vocal duties, storming the flow in typical style with an anti-capitalist and anti-war sentiment set to a dark and militant techstep beat. Sick one! Look for this coming to Beatport from 19th March with all other stores following two weeks later.

Premiere: Conrad Subs – Streets of Rage

Conrad Subs returns to Default Recordings next month with another pair of old school techstep rumblers and we’ve got the exclusive on lead track Streets of Rage! Powered along by a driving bass rhythm and peppered with massive reese tears and distorted amens, this one is pure dancefloor destruction with an edge of funk; yes Conrad! Look for the single at all good stores from April 2nd.

Premiere: Hibrid – Izgubljeni (Euphorics Remix)

Sarajevo imprint Submarine Vibes possibly isn’t a label that’s familiar to the Dojo readership, since they mostly specialise in Deep House, but their latest release sees them branching out on a remix project that crosses genres and includes a bit of 170BPM action. On that note, we’ve got the exclusive premiere of the Euphorics remix of Izgubljeni (meaning ‘Lost’). Taking the rich musical strands of the downtempo original, Euphorics has woven a cracking deep liquid interpretation – rolling breaks, deep sub and those hypnotic vocals combine for a track you can get seriously lost in. Look out for this coming March 19th at all good stores.
