Review:
Following some impressive outings on Hypercolour and its offshoot Losing Suki, young talent Bareskin moves to Hot N Heavy for two tracks of futuristic, bass infused house grooves. "Infinite Reflections" sees breathy, disembodied vocals swimming in clouds of reverb, with warm organs providing melodic R&B undertones, while "Inertia" switches things up with a 3am vibe, as subdued stabs and distant diva vocals wrapped in a filter induced fog, proving that Bareskin is a producer who can create dance tracks with substance as well as atmosphere.

Review:
A UK producer who's showing huge potential with his house/UKF hybrids right now, Corporal F's latest for Hot N Heavy lends bass music some crafty touches. There's the brilliantly oddball sampling on the house gem "I Like You", some funky garage-flecked 808 funk on "Give It All" and a proper carnival smasher in the shape of "Heat Up". Add to that the heavy tribal grind of "Jungle" and this makes for a hot release.

Review:
Combining broken garage beats, powerful basslines and some heavy textures, UK producer D3adl1ne's "Wait For You" boasts three dubby killers - the deeply-atmospheric title tune, the meditative half-stepper "Still Believing" and the more house-shaped chilled tech of "Baby Got Beef".

Review:
Delightfully smooth vibes can be found in abundance as Gullfisk marks his entrance into the bass world with his first full artist EP. With slippery synth pads and neatly diced vocal cuts running throughout, this will win you friends on the dancefloor and your home stereo. The title track is especially beautiful with its subtle kicks and trickling hi-hats playing careful cameos as the vocal and groove do all the talking. The two-step powered "Green Waters" is slightly more dancefloor inclined but equally deep and enchanting. Meanwhile "Explore" lives up to its name and explores the wonderfully retrospective world of synth sounds to such an expert level it almost sounds like an Orbital track. With remixes from EPLP, Commodore 69 and D3adl1ne, this really is quite the package.

Review:
Lunova Labs is an electronic producer hailing from the unusual base of Nashville, Kentucky. Describing his sound as future garage and inspired equally by Debussy, Aphex Twin and Philip Glass, he finally releases this two-track follow up to recent EP Pneuma. "Burden" is a simple affair with a tropical xylophone motif gently lilting over sparse beats. Three further mixes of the track feature here: Kyson Market Stall take the song in a trippy slow motion soul direction, while Commodore 69 and Azedia both concentrate on toughening up the tropical beats and bass. Second track "Holding On" again has a minimal arrangement, but is augmented by soaring soundscapes and a fragile piano melody. Fedbymachines deliver a killer Burial-style doom mix, Admin delivers a laid-back house interpretation, but it's EPLP's standout garage-tinged mix that will fill the dancefloors.

Review:
A bass-loving UK duo who are able to bust out quality bangers across a wide-range of genres, Mak & Pasteman turn in two stand-outs on this new Hot N Heavy release. "Playboy" is a pepped-up half-stepper with a glitched out bassline, a sea of astral arpeggios and a Machinedrum-esque use of R&B acapellas that fire over the track in a head-spinning array of pitches. "Jungle Juice" on the other hand rocks a UKF beat with nasty grime bass and an excellent, DJ Mujava-esque lead sound thrown in.

Review:
Second time around for Mak and Pasteman's "Playboy", this time in glistening "VIP" form, backed by a string of new remixes. For those who enjoy their garage to flicker between fizzling haf-step and bombastic tropical rhythms, "Playboy VIP" should be essential. Remix wise, choose between the cut-up wobble of Udachi's remix, the breakdowns-and-dubstep-on-speed flex of the Clicks & Whistles version, and the snappy bounce of the Subio remix. There are also three new reworks of "Jungle Juice". Of these, it's the fairground two-step and call-and-response madness of the Palle Remix that most impresses, though there's something deliciously raw about Mike G's heavy rework.

Review:
Mako is the latest name to arrive on the Hot N Heavy imprint, bringing his own brand of intricate bass music. The sparse title track focuses in on weighty 2-step kicks, wrapping all manner of subtle melodic riffs and vocals around its complex percussion. "Hurt Me" is more explicitly UFK, rolling forward on a rhythmic flex of funky snares, reverb heavy vocals and filtered synths, while "Good FiRday" shows the producer to have a knack for crafting boogie infused hip-hop beats, combining neon saturated 8-bit melodies with weighty organic beatwork. A hefty remix package is also offered; Almostt turns Tropicality" into a moodier, snappier cut, "Shouts" swathes the track in rippling dub effects while, Huffaker Park transforms "Hurt Me" into a precise piece of swung 4/4 house.

Review:
Making their debut on Hot N Heavy, Motif & Ramu show themselves to be more than capable of creating bass heavy yet lightweight music for the floor; "Just You" is an effervescent combination of 90s house stylings and swung garage beats, with the kind of fizzy melodics worthy of a Jacques Greene production, while "See The Future" is a considerably darker number, pitching its vocals right down into a dub infused, bass filled soundscape which is nevertheless primed for maximum dancefloor effect.

Review:
Manchester's Nemmz is doing his best to combat these dreary winter blues, styling his new EP around shimmering tropical vibes. "Up To No Good" kicks things of with mellow garage beats, gentle chord stabs and a cheeky hip hop vocal sample. "Ocean Blue" dives into deeper, crystalline waters, with even dreamier synth pads and mellow beats, while "Without Ya" ups the energy stakes with dubby bass, incessant beats and a huge breakdown. Finally "Break You Down" is a future bass/2 step fusion boasting pitched RnB vocals and evocative palm tree-lined synthwork.

Review:
Pooling the best of San Francisco's 2-step, future garage and bass scene, Hot N Heavy's third volume in this series is a top source of some seriously impressive, upcoming talent. Kasio's opening "Back To The Garage" is straight-up stunning, with incredibly deep oceanic pads filtered down magnificently to a drop of crunchy and twitchy drums. Similarly, Red Army, Reilly Steel, Commodore 69 and Ground Control all prove more than a match for British kindred spirits like Joy O, Pearson Sound and the Night Slugs crew.

Review:
San Francisco's Hot n Heavy Recordings mark their third birthday with a new action packed compilation, released on the symbolic date of 12/12/12. Featuring 14 fresh cuts spanning future bass, deep house and leftfield garage. Highlights include the tropical melancholia of Laney's "You Need To", the menacing minimal vibes of "Hairdresser" by Allmostt, the sparse, abstract garage of HxDB's "Spectator" and the slammin' raw, retro house of "Darlin" by D3adl1ne.

Review:
San Francisco's Hot N Heavy have been bravely fighting the EDM epidemic that's currently plaguing the US, and they've been making steady ground too! New signing Velcro is a duo comprising LA producers Littlefoot and the Sweet Leech. Quickly after forming, the pair locked in a sound that sits somewhere between deep house and UKF as featured on these two tunes. "Compton Blvd" is an old skool, 4/4 garage meets hip-hop joint and "Goldfish" is a deep, off-kilter orgy of 90s synths. The former is remixed in a slammin' house manner by Commodore 69, while the latter is given a harder, juke-style work out by Mike G.
