Review: In all honesty, we are running out of words to describe the pure domination we are seeing from the Duploc camp, especially with their output thriving heavily in 2023's unique dubstep ecosystem. For this latest offering, they celebrate their 100th official drop with a regal arrangement of guests, including the likes of Lost, Wraz, Rugby, Ternion Sound, ENiGMA Dubz and more, all of whom have pulled out their weightiest weapons in combined celebration. If you wanted a full on display of the majesty currently at work within dubstep's deep catacombs, then look no further than this epic selection, with our favourites including the ground mulching bass melodies of Hebbe's 'The Insider', next to Mystic State's warming rework of 'Voice' from Opus, and of course Hamdi's rave-ready synth action explored within 'Immortal'. There aren't many collectives doing more than the Duploc team right now.

Review: The Duploc team have a real knack for finding and unleashing explosive compilation drops, with this latest 8-track war-tape being another one to add to the arsenal, focussing on some potent remix action. Opening up with Mystic State's dreamscape-driven rethink of 'Voice' from Opus, we know we are in for a good time, with 11th Hour then giving Ourman's 'Bad Things' an electrifying overhaul next to the grungy synth pulses and grizzly drums of Woven Thorns' rework of 'One Time' from Juss B. There is no letting off the gas as AxH lets the bit crushers loose on his potent rethink of JSM's '1893', next to the eastern inspired melodic drifts of SBK's 'The Vihaan' remix from ColtCuts, the choppy LFO sweeps of Cesco's 'Mangal Sound' redesign from Oddkut & Hotcut and of course Mungk's sub-heavy switch up of 'Schreddzzz' from Rygby. Finally, Drumterror fires off a stuttering display of vocal chops and large melodic action on his 'Puli Kali' overhaul, giving Mungk's original one final rethink to round off the compilation in style.

Review: Boy oh boy what a year it has been for the Duploc family, who despite all the madness of 2020 have still kept up their incredible run of consistency, dropping nothing but bangers throughout the duration. This, presumably their final drop of the year sees them pull together a monstrous roster, featuring the likes of Cartridge, BunZer0, Ourman, Opus, Teffa, Sam Cosmic, Xakra and many more to give us one final celebratory look into dubstep in the modern era. The complete track listing is absolutely bonkers to tell you all the truth, with quality leaking out of every single original. Some favourites we have to mention however of course include the sizzling bass designs and spooky textures of Wraz's 'Ghost', alongside the fluttering flute melodies of Mani's 'Secret Forest' and 'Gibberish', a super smooth subby glider from Surreal & Somah.

Review: When we come to discuss consistency, if we are talking within the dubstep scene, there really aren't many labels you look to before you land on Duploc. They are back doing what they do best next as they deliver a monumental compilation project, showcasing some of the hottest dubstep talents in the world right now, including Opus, Teffa, Xakra, Wraz, Sam Cosmic and more. There are some absolute gems to be plucked from this tracklisting, including the upbeat orchestral layouts of 'Secret Forest' from Mani and of course the devilish melodic structures and haunting vocal samples of 'Hidden Blade' from Woven Thorns. Overall, this one is a huge success.

Review: As ever, Hypho has arrived with an incredible amount of style and flare with this one as he returns to his home label of Manuka for a spicy four track selection, pulling together the combined forces of four top production names for a sensational collaborative project. We begin our look at this one with Sumgii's insertions on 'Gold Metal', a low riding sizzler, driven by it's unusual drum allocations and slower tempo. Next, MR.K arrives for his additional inputs on 'Suss', another slower roller, glued together with metallic snare hits and dreamy synthesizer wafts, before 'Freeze' delivers a monstrously powerful arrangement, skippy as you like and featuring the handy work of Opus. Finally, 'Etiquette' sees Rygby make the final appearance with some very powerful sub pulses and an overall haunted tone, rounding off this excellent body of work in style.

Review: Following on from the recent launch of White Peach's new vinyl website scheme, they are back at it again with yet another top quality drop from Opus, who really struggles not to hit the back of the net it would seem. The title track 'This Damn Feeling' sets the tone perfectly with it's glum, chiming introduction and super-sidechained sub pulses that sit atop a sharpened sitar-like synthesizer line. From here, 'Day & Age' delivers another glistening sub-heavy masterstroke, before the moody bass LFO's and eerie upper textures of 'Ghost' prepare to bust open the first sound system they can find. Finally, 'Renegade' sends the release completely leftfield with a wonky half-time experiment, glued together by epic string work and an irresistible lead synth that packs one hell of a punch!

Review: It's been a top year for Imajika, who has continued to unveil tasty releases since the start of 2019. He here touches down on Simply Deep for a top notch drop, kicking off with the hard hitting synth structures and swinging percussion of 'Hear Now' before 'Almanac' arrives with spooky chimes and crunchy atmospherics. We then leap into a horde of remixes as Arta & Imanzi spin fantastic rethinks of 'Hear Now', with Gleb Choutov spinning Alamanc into an eerie roller, followed by Imajika's own rework of Mindapple from Opus, one of SimplyDeep's most popular ever drops. Awesome stuff!

Review: Southpoint are back at it again here as they revive one of their older series in Integrate, to showcase their latest dubstep selections. They here employ the full force of their 140BPM arm as Opus first prepares to knock the house down with the incredible bass pressures of 'Grassfruit', before label founder KXVU and long standing multi-genre wizard 9TRANE take it to the dungeon with the quirky sub slaps of 'Lugdush'. Next, Bristol based stepper supreme: Muttley gets to work with his Asian-inspired chopper 'Sokodu', before Jakebob and Drax team up in style to round off the project with Cave. Top top work from the Southpoint team as per!

Review: Sentry Records has put together some serious releases over the last few years, showcasing the latest and greatest in dubstep and its surrounding genres. We are therefore introduced to and absolutely storming compilation here as we reel off bangers from the likes of dubstep legends such as Caspa, Truth, Sukh Knight, Youngsta and more. For us, the highlights of this incredible compilation are quite clear, kicking off with the stunning production of 'Judas' from Nomine, who brings forward his uniquely metallic sound design on mass. Another absolute heater we couldn't forget is the spooky yet satisfying 'Crocodile' from Dayzero, packed with wicked drum flavours and haunted overtones.

Review: Opus has been an absolute tear of late, stacking up some top notch releases on some of the most forward thinking label platforms around, including the likes of White Peach, Southpoint and most recently here: the legendary Chestplate. Distance serves us a gem with this one as the unique steppers flavours of Opus run riot across the hypnotic synth swirls and marching kick maneuvers of the title track 'Crumble'. Next we swim into the luscious sub textures and syncopated rhythmic bliss of 'Titan' before finishing up the project amidst the tripletted drum bounces of 'Reach'. Incredible work again from Opus.

Review: As always, it's a real pleasure to see the likes of Four40 hit back with yet another awesome compilation project. Over the years we have been treated to some absolute gems from these guys, a trend which continues as Kastle unveils his specially selected 'Get Right inside' compilation, complete with a full studio mix of the tracks involved. We look through the tracklisting on this one to find awesome pieces from the likes of Exit99, Opus, Duncan Powell and many more high profile names. For us the standouts of this project have to include the high energy collaboration between Jammz & Roska entitled 'Energy & Stamina', along with Witchdoctor's groovy spectacular in 'From The inside'.

Review: Are crucial the most cutting edge sound in dubstep right about now? They certainly have to stake a claim as they unveil yet another fire indusing four track bundle, including recordings from the likes of TMSV, Van Dam, Causa, Sleeper and Opus. We begin our excavations of this one by looking into the shimmering sub work and moody synths of TMSV & Van Dam's 'Qanum Fodder', before falling into lethal bass rolls of Causa's 'Are We'. Following this, Sleeper comes through in storming form with the subtle beastings of 'Ginger Root', before Opus sends the dance into pandemonium with his super glitchy expanse in 'People'.

Review: In regards to dubstep and grime, there are few that have made as much of an instant impact as Opus, who has run wild over the last 2 years creating some incredible material. Here we see him team up with Crucial Recordings for an absolute monster of an EP. The title track 'Sharpie' is a mucky roller, filled with constantly widening bass textures and haunting atmospheric fills, fit to turn any dance into a zoo. The B-side also boasts to absolute heaters, with the shimmering bass tones of 'Peel' and constantly shuffling percussive breezes of 'Newspeak' holding some extreme weight.

Review: Badboy-bassboy Opus lands on Instigate Recordings with some seriously fiery waves of post-dubstep-ism that are still very much relevant to the UK scene and, of course, to the mighty hardcore continuum! "Ctrl Yourself" is a vibing bass monster with a broken arrangement and that sinister, street-dwelling sound we love so much, whereas "Switch" bangs its percussion in a magnificently off-kilter manner, and "Voyager" goes for the wobble flex, reminding us of some of Coki's best moments. Ya dun'know!

Review: As far as UK based labels go, Simply Deep are certainly one of the more innovative imprints, always looking to forge their own path without feeling any genre boundaries. This release see's them team up with rising star Opus for a dubstep diversion, supplying us with solid six track selection. Our highlights straight from the off have to include the ghastly title track 'Mindapple' which takes a blend of wobbly percussion and sinister synthesis and crafts something extraordinary. We are also treated to the eerie arrangement of 'Lightbound' which features fantastic vocal content from Flipz Mc, along with the off-the-cuff waspy synthesis and alien soundscapes of 'Clusterfrack'.

Review: This is the first time that Opus and Loudcutta appear on the excellent Encrypted Audio imprint and, we should add, it's also the first time that they join forces behind the mixing board - full-on debuts on all fronts! Thankfully, what they have produced is some absolute gold, ad exactly the sort of bass gear needed to shake the scene up: "M-80" launches one of the duttiest basslines we've heard since the start of 2017, "Rotten Wing" gives a new terminology to the what we usually refer to as 'off-kilter', and "Teefing Season" is the most effective bit of wobble available on our charts this week - total winners! Recommended.

Review: Aerotonin and Opus both recently appeared on Jelly Bean Farm's Enter compilation, and they got on so well that they've struck up a studio relationship; the product is a four-track bass monster that ticks all the bass boxes. "Extraction Point" is a bouncy, old-school kind of broken beat with a 4Hero sort of flex, and the same can be said for Opus' own "Mass", a break-led beat bomb for the heads. Aerotonin's "Marble Separation" is a darker, more cavernous affair that taps into what we like to refer to as the 'cerebral' side of dubstep, but the duo pick up the momentum through the collaborative "Communicate", a sleek, mechanical banger that reminds us of Ed Rush's early material. TIP!

Review: It's a new year, and it's time for some new imprints. That's the way we operate. Jelly Bean Farm is among the labels to launch in 2017 but, while others would think of pacing themselves with a debut EP, these guys have gone and dropped a whole compilation of new, unforgiving bass science from all corners of the extended genre. There are twelve killer cuts to choose from here, all from emergent talents, and we've got our eyes set on a number of them. Hypho's "Majikk" is a glorious neo-grime workout that stretches the genre to the very limits, "Pistol Signal" from Opus is a bubbling, potent new strain of hydro-phonic dubstep, PAN:INC's "Freight" is the sort of techno that any bass-boy dreams at night, and Sensei's "Reed" manages to blur the most daring elements of jungle and minimal techno together as if they were made to be one and one. Check it all out, though, this is a true goldmine of all things bass-oriented. Watch out for more Jelly Bean Farm gear.
