Review: Total Science's CIA take a moment for reflection as they look back over the decades of hard service they've done and cherry pick a few old gold favourites. As with previous Select Files collections, the range is widescreen and full of authentic, timeless, honest D&B. You want highlights? You best start going through every track... Everything from Calibre's 2009 snarling bongo-buster "Understand" to some of S.P.Y's earliest cuts such as "Dark Age" and "Magic Hour" and the VIP of Total Science's evergreen ballistic rave weapon "Defcom 69" still hits the spot like they did the first time round. Get selective.

Hexagon/Love Or Death
Hexagon - (6:15) 175 BPM Hot
Love Or Death - (6:06) 172 BPM
Review: Fresh from launching their own label for their collaborations last year, longstanding compadres Seba and Paradox land on the Metalheadz mothership once again with two outstanding lessons in D&B realism. "Hexagon" is glacial and furious. Original late 90s rudiments; the beats are pneumatic, the flavours and cosmic, the vibe is barbed and tense throughout. "Love Or Death" takes us down an even darker drumfunk rabbit hole where the breaks do all the talking. Absolute slap-about business with no holds barred in any element or ingredient. What a way to kick off the new decade for both Paradox, Seba and Metalheadz.

Decagon/Hakai
Decagon - (6:27) 170 BPM
Hakai - (7:06) 173 BPM Hot
Review: Paradox is one of the most consistent jungle producers around and we've been loving his output across the many years of his production history. His latest single is quintessential Paradox: spacious, atmospheric breaks music with a focus on sophistication that doesn't sacrifice grit. This is one for the true heads and if you like your music dumbed down with frills attached, then this probably isn't for you. 'Decagon' summarises this perfectly, with its booming snare drum as the centrepiece, each percussive hit precisely engineered around it to create the overall vibe of deep roughness. Quality single as per usual.

Volantis
Volantis - (6:52) 57 BPM
Electropia - (7:15) 170 BPM Hot
Review: In the world of jungle music, producer duos don't get a lot more dynamic or historic than Nucleus and Paradox. The pair have released on some of the biggest labels about, including the mighty Metalheadz, and their ability to craft jungle music with genuine depth never ceases to stay fresh and exciting. 'Volantis' proves that in exceptional style, a drawn-out, atmospheric intro never reaches fever pitches because it doesn't need to; this one is all about the journey, not the finale. 'Electropia' is equally as stunning and equally as thought-provoking, featherweight jungle drums contrast with the usual heaviness in uniquely glorious fashion, and the obscenely good vocal sampling is the final touch. An exceptionally good release from some exceptionally good producers.

The Bolide
The Bolide - (6:24) 172 BPM Hot
Dioxan - (7:59) 170 BPM
Review: The break professor returns! Biting down on 2018 like it's one of your mum's best brownies, once again he makes everything sound so spacious, effortless and natural. The roomy dynamism on the drums and sudden drop into strange cosmic space slop on "The Bolide" are guaranteed to grab you by the cohones while "Dioxan" throes down a b-boy dual with its bubbling sub funk, twisted bass variations, classic samples and minimal rhythm make-up. Classic Paradox.

Wrath Part 1
12 Bits (Mako's Breakout Rmx) - (4:56) 176 BPM Hot
What I Feel - (6:02) 58 BPM
Review: Paradox & Nucleus - surely one of the most consistent and innovative partnerships in drum & bass history - return to Headz with two time-spanning/stretching/defying EPs that dig deep into their history while staring into the future. Mako takes the lead with an update on their 2005 cosmic b-boy cut "Twelve Bits" with more emphasis and rolls on the breaks. It's backed by a fresh original from the main men themselves; a crisp stepper with droning pads and a purring low end that really comes into its own on big systems. Absolutely no messing around here at all. But did you expect anything less?

Wrath Part 2
Wrath - (6:50) 57 BPM
Aragon Rmx - (7:04) 58 BPM Hot
Review: Feel the "Wrath" of the legendary drumfunk innovators Nucleus and Paradox! 20 years after their first partnerships on Reinforced, the pair continue to push sonic time and space in directions it's not supposed to go. "Wrath" is the perfect example of restraint as a series of devilish textures and basses worm and writhe their way around a loose, almost jazzy two-step but never overcrowd or overtake. Next up: a samurai-sharp update on their 2005 Headz classic "Aragon" where a new arrangement and a higher definition of cause a spike of the senses in the true iced out style that both Nucleus, Paradox and Headz have championed since day one.

Breaker
Breaker - (6:22) 173 BPM Hot
Kickdat - (5:51) 176 BPM
Played by: Physics
Review: Drumfunk doyen, break dismantler, all-round jungle legend, not a month goes by without Dev Paradox hitting us with another break. Literally in this case; the tuned snare rolls and rifle kicks are all built up around a vocal sample explaining exactly what he does on a monthly basis. "Kickdat" takes us deeper down the break rabbit hole with a slower investigation of mid to late 80s hip-hop. As always with Paradox, this is nothing short of essential.

Because/Lie To Me
Because - (5:34) 175 BPM
Lie To Me - (5:31) 175 BPM Hot
Review: A tried and tested threesome formation; Seba and Paradox have worked with vocalist Robert Manos several times over the last 10 years... And the three-way partnership is still as strong as ever with both cuts right here; "Because" is bulbous ball of rolling soul, drenched in aquatic pads and Manos's faraway yearns. "Lie To Me" is a lighter, twinkling piece of work. Reminiscent of Commix's earlier work, it could have easily been released at any point in the last 20 years... And sound relevant and razor sharp on every occasion.

Blade 9
Blade 9 - (6:39) 175 BPM Hot
Break North - (5:57) 59 BPM
Played by: Ant TC1
Review: It's hard to argue with two of the most influential beat-makers in the industry. As the pioneer of drum-funk and easily one of the most consistently creative members of the drum and bass scene, Paradox continues to surprise. Working together once more for a fresh release on Metalheadz, "Break North" is already becoming a solid in the dark-minimal underground with its perfectly poised drums and on point percussion. And, tactical roller "Blade 9" is heavy enough to rule the underworld of where its sounds come from - watch yourself.

Rockdown
Rockdown - (5:41) 58 BPM Hot
Divination - (6:41) 57 BPM
Review: Timeless drum and bass is what Paradox Music is all about and Paradox returns to the scene in his own renegade b-boy style with "Rockdown". Bringing back that old school taste for low and mean bass paired with necksnapping breaks and chopped hip-hop, there's a lot to take in here. How can the past still sound this good? "Divination" takes more inspiration from the present day despite those Paradox give-away beats, opting for deep, dangerous bass and minimal stylings culminating in a dark and deadly masterclass in underground drum and bass.

Delusions
Delusions - (6:21) 58 BPM
Future Now - (6:45) 175 BPM Hot
Review: "Delusions" by itself is a ballsy rush through warehouse atmosphere and deep, thundering bass. What else did you expect from the man like Seba, especially when paired with the ice cold mentality of Paradox? It's a kind-of industrial-meets-old school sound and we're all into it. Finally released on Seba's weighty Secret Operations label after teasing fans for months, "Future Now" is on the flip, placing on-point production alongside darkly rumbling bass and cymbal-heavy percussion.

The Light
The Light - (5:51) 175 BPM Hot
As If - (6:34) 58 BPM
Review: Critical marks their 53rd release by bringing Seba and Paradox together for a super sharp release on Kasra's imprint. Featuring vocal work from Kirsty Hawkshaw, "The Light" is full of swooning lyrics, old skool piano keys with an (almost) overpowering glowering bass which rises up like the crest of a wave a couple of minutes in. Beautifully complimented by its counterpart, "As If" sees the boys tune into an altogether different vibe; cue a jungle coated, tech roller with hollow, metallic breaks, bassline thumping and reggae samples a-plenty.
