Risen from a land where basslines infiltrate and distort innocent minds from an early age the deviant known as Schwarr, has accumulated and refined these experiences into a distinct and unique project.

Colliding sharp sound design with heavy glitch and neuro hop flavours, Schwarr is rapidly emerging as a force of innovation within the electronic music community. Having blown minds and inspired twisted limbs up and down the east coast of Australia, and with releases upcoming on Sixbux and Adapted, this momentum gathering force will pleasurably penetrate ear canals with mind-stunning accuracy.

OKULI is the collaborative Drum & Bass/Neurofunk project of two Melbourne based producers Angus Green and Schwarr.

Both artists are already established and respected contributors to the Australian bass music scene, with a number of successful releases with independent label Adapted Records. However, Okuli displays a fresh approach to the duo's production, combining their previous experience with new techniques that results in tight and gritty composition.

Okuli's music is best described as rich, snarling basslines, tight and hard-hitting drums, coarse de-tuned leads and intricate rhythms. It incorporates elements from artists such as Phace, Mefjus, Billain, Emperor, Noisia and other heavyweights into a polished, yet unique sound.


★★★ BASSMENT (Promo Audio | Audio Theory | Counetrpoint) ★★★

Born in 1992 in the city of Porto, where he currently still resides, José Miguel Silva is the DJ and producer that embodies Bassment.

From very early on, he discovered his enthusiasm for music, and manifested a special appetence for arts, which he chose as his object of study.

From this perspective, his passion for Drum and Bass came naturally, and in 2009 he started to buy his first vinyl records, months before investing in his own mixing equipment.

Short after, he makes his debut at the Open Decks promoted by Zona 6, with whom he then collaborated as a guest DJ. In 2010, he is referenced as Upcoming Talent by the 105 Agency (DJ Scape and DJ Basic – both ex Basic Manuvers).

The accumulating experience in his baggage from the years behind the decks, made the passage to the production of his own music repertoire, a somewhat natural and inevitable process that progressively transformed the basement of his house into a true production studio.

It was in mid-2013 that he started to promote his first projects online, and soon after he wins an online music competition for the Sample Genie (DigitalLabz, Bristol, UK) website, which involved a group of respected producers like Prolix (Ram / Renegade Hardware / Playaz), Hybris (Subtitles / Invisible / Metalheadz), State of Mind [NZ] (SOM / Shogun / Viper) , Xtrah (Critical / Ram / Subtitles), FD (Metalheadz / Subtitles / Invisible), and Amoss (Dispatch / Horizons).

Meanwhile he joined the Portuguese Agency and Label – Counterpoint, and in the end of November he signed his first contract with Audio Theory Records (GR), guaranteeing the release of a 4 track EP.

In the same month, his is mentioned by Promo Audio Recordings (BR) head honcho, DJ Rusty in Knowledge Maganize (K-Mag, UK), and it is expected a Bassment release with 6 tracks released in this Brazilian label during the start of 2014, as well as 2 more EPs on True Box Records and Counterpoint. 2014 is certainly a promising year!


★★★ ANODYNE INDUSTRIES (Hopskotch | SubSlayers | Manifesto Music) ★★★


Soundcloud:

http://anodyneindustries.net/


Anodyne Industries was developed in 2009 as a means to push the boundaries of Drum and Bass by exploring the new frontier of halfstep DnB (~85bpm) with gentle nudges of lush melodics, or the brute force of punishing basslines and broken beats if necessary.

His music can be found on Empathy Recordings, Delta9 Records, Dual Signal Records, Manifesto Music and Hopskotch Records.

Aftermask was not always Aftermask. Age 15 - Through meeting a ninja named Mike Damnage (http://promodj.com/MikeDAMNage) - Aftermask was introduced to Drum & Bass. The music caused an immediate response from him, and encouraged him to embrace the depths and areas of his mind, which were not explored in any of the schools he had attended. The stuff they don’t teach us.... Since this time in his life, that mentality has only grown. Always becoming more inspirational and mind-opening, as he gradually discovered countless darkside drum & bass songs/mixes, (originally based from Limewax, SPL, Current Value, Technical Itch, etc.) and over time developed and acquired a wholesome taste for the entire genre, leaving his neck and head bobbing to the beat in eternity.
