One of dub-steps new rising stars.

One of the most popular yet credible dubstep compilations is back!
The series, respected as one of the most popular yet credible dubstep compilations is back with an album to define the sound of 20
'This Is Dubstep 2011' lays out the many forms of the 140 tempo over 2 CDs of skilled composition, as Icicle's intellectual beats melt into the lowdown dub of Loefah & Skream, the shock out monstrosity of Bass Cannon fires into the broken beat funk of Emalkay, and the Modestep anthem 'Feel Good' licks over the gunfire chaos of Doctor P's 'Big Boss'. 'This Is Dubstep 2011' is the definitive sound of a genre more innovative and massive than ever.

Started in 2005 as collaboration with a friend, Terrain records had releases from Manchester artists S.N.O & Omen, with remixes from a young Skream, and N-Type. The label lay dormant for 5 years, but for 2011 N-Type has decided to relaunch the label, focusing on 140bpm jungle & hardcore influenced dubstep. For the 3rd release on the label, N-type presents two young artists with a love for the oldskool hardcore junglist sound Benton and ARC 88. A side 'Having Fun' by Benton is reminiscent of early Jungle, with rolling amen breaks, thunderous Reece bassline, and classic pitched up female vocals. This tune has been a staple in N-types dubplate collection AA Side '2 Many' by ARC 88 is a dancehall killah! 140bpm jungle rinser, featuring ragga vocals and a euphoric breakdown. Featured on the new Wheel & Deal Records album mix by DJ N-Type, this track is a standard reload. Both tracks are currently being battered by N-Type, Skream, Dismantle, Walsh, Bluesy, Chefal and Cluekid to name a few.

Ding Dong's Dancehall Anthem gets the the 2011 treatment by the legendary The Bug (= Kevin Martin) featuring MC Flow (from Roll Deep) - Killer!

>>> REPRESS <<< First released in July 2009, this one has been unavailable for the better part of a year, but you still keep asking for it, so here it comes again. When this came out, Floating Points' only previous release had been a 7' on their own Eglo label, but already they had developed a strong reputation as a production unit to watch. This 12' delivers two slices of psychedelic soul and synthfunk squiggles, underpinned by squashed up 2-step rhythms and compressed hip hop drums, easily on level terms with the likes of Hud Mo or Mike Slott

Estonian duo KGB step up for their debut release on Dub Police and they certainly aren't pulling any punches. The production partnership hit you with two cuts of pure dance floor energy and impact that display their versatility and uncanny knowledge of how to get a crowd going. If you don't know about KGB, you better get to know, as they are quickly establishing themselves as one of the rising stars in underground dance music. With plenty of tricks up their sleeves, there will be no stopping them in 2011! 'Ghetto Blaster 2010' draws upon different elements of underground bass music and melds them together in to something entirely unique and undeniably infectious. Taking the growling midrange bass-weight of dubstep and wiring it to a militant UK Funky drum march, KGB give the track an unstoppable momentum and punishing impact that is impossible to fight against - With an artillery that includes fire like this, it is no wonder they are quickly paving their path to the top. On the flipside, KGB deliver something very different. Pinned down by the tough half-step drum pattern, 'Hands Up' is all about the maniacal intertwining bass lines. When this track drops there is no denying its fierce, in-your-face power.

pressed on 180 gram Vinyl with full colour Sleeve. Silkie returns almost two years to the month with the follow up to his first album 'City Limits Volume 1'. Volume 2 is the final output in the 'City Limits' series and follows on from a triplet of releases this year on DEEP MEDi, two singles 'City Limits Volume 1.2 and 1.4' and the last EP 'City Limits Volume 1.6 - 1.8'. 'City Limits Volume 2' pushes the boundaries of Silkie's love affair with the funk and his crew's Antisocial's gangster boogie vibrations even further in to the Dubstep future. Silkie shows on 'City Limits Volume 2' just how far ahead of the pack he is with twelve certified future funk jams. Heavy dance floor licks such as 'Taxi Me Get' and 'New York City' roll slickly alongside the fusion of Rare groove, Dubstep and Jungle on 'Rock Da Funk', Only 4 U', 'Boogie Boy' and 'Selva Nova', smart moves indeed from the West London dapper Dan. As if that's not enough to keep you grooving hard Silkie has enlisted a selection of choice collaborators, Dubstep don Skream steps in to lend a hand on the skanking, bass shaking 'Untitled' whilst Australia's Truth combine on the album's opener 'Feel' and French Dubstepper Von. D adds a little soul on 'Snowed In'. Leaving us with Silkie's tribute to his favourite festival with 'Outlook' and a beautifully fitting way to close the album.

Boundaryless EP fromnew producer, Tessela, the first vinyl release for the West Country (UK) producer. Making some noise in the virtual world, this foray into vinyl is a mix of styles with the heavy emphasis on bass made all the more interesting by the pitched down vocals and synths. Ravey but Dubby, Dark but fun, 3 tracks in all give a proper introduction to his developing sound.

Sampler feat two tracks from the CD and a vinyl only track, Gang Colours 'Disco Nose'.

'Supergravity', a simultaneously gritty while ambient track of the highest order, recalls not only Drexciya and the Detroit underground in its prime, but the ambient techno hey day of artists like the Black Dog and the inimitable LFO.

Bar9 have been busy boys of late and have had a barrage of successful remixes released by some of the biggest labels in the world, that include Data (Ministry of Sound) and Cr2!

Two of the worlds best underground labels DJ Clever's Offshore & Scuba's Hotflush join forces for Hotshore. Release
number 3 features dBridge's remix of Tense (that featured on the Autonomic Fabric Mix CD). On the flip Headhunter

Five tracks from hot new Ninja act

no repress, sorry !!!
Alex Clare (Produced by Diplo & Switch) 'too Close original with one of the bigger moombahton remixes out right now unleashed onto the world on limited Vinyl A beast of a remix that really shows the diversity in this moombah movement. Super limited pressing .

highly anticipated one sided release from Blawan. This is that tune you keeping hearing in the sets of Pearson Sound & Ben UFO.

Headlined by Zomby's epic bleep symphony 'Mu5h' (yes, with a 5), a dramatic and melodic 8bit stepper, while the retooling of 'Spliff Dub' claims equal honours on the flip. Where Zomby's original followed on from the classic 1980s 'Sleng Teng' school of digital dancehall, Rustie's glitched version scuttles along with wonky denatured percussion, jiggy groove, speaker busting bass, blaring synths and a chopped-up vocal instructing you how to "keep the evil away".

Limited Edition Vinyl 3 x12" presented a gatefold colour sleeve with 2 CD's packed inside

Age Of Love' was a one-off project that unexpectedly became a key moment for the development of progressive trance in the '90's. Still sounding better than most club records around today, people as diverse as Tiesto, 2many DJ's, Laurent Garnier, or even Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano continue to drop this in their sets today, testiment to how universally well loved this record is.

MASSIVE NEW SINGLE FROM DEADMAU5 WITH NOSIA ON THE MIX.

The record is divided in 1 side Hovatron tracks and 1 side remixes by some of the hot names around. Side is is Gypsy Trader, Super Soaker and Young Blood soaked in his known style somewhere between hip hop, skweee and crunk: pure floor excitement! Like his first release on Lo-Fi Funk this one is a bumpy ride on the dancefloor.

For Berkane Sol 18 we present the vinyl debut of the hugely talented Aleks Zen. He calls his outfit 'Neon Bounty' and its easy to hear why. His brightly coloured music is like the soundtrack to a thrill seekers ride through the downtown areas of a tropical metropolis - sensuous but edgy, and properly booming on the right kind of car stereo. His riddims are propulsive and a joy to dance to, bringing together the best aspects of both house and dubstep. Melodically these tunes feel like the emotions of classic West Coast g-funk filtered through the mongrel mindset of the current UK bass music scene. Or as Aleks puts it himself - 'I've been on hip-hop, grime, house and dubstep, now I'm trying to to create my own musical paradigm that still relates to people's earthly emotions'. Pimp Shoes is maybe the best example of this - sometimes it feels just like an upbeat oldskool computer game theme, but then it evolves through some highly accomplished and unexpected key changes that put it in a whole new category.

Cyrus's Soul Seeker and Looking Back are released on the esteemed label from Distance's Chestplate Records. Real bass meditation business from a true pioneer. Check the drop.. Boom! Cyrus continues to maintain his position as one of the legends of the scene. Support from Youngsta, Get Darker and DJ Distance.
