Kniteforce Anthology: Kniteforce White 1-10 Kniteforce

Brazen, blatant and seriously original rave, hardcore and drum and bass comes straight out of the Kniteforce label once again thanks to this Kniteforce White Anthology. Taking in 11-tracks, DJ Beeno lights it up with two classic hardcore numbers in "Nothing Breaks" and "Bend It" next to the jungle rhythms of his hook up with Alk-e-d in "Merlin Sound". Sunny & Deck Hussy deliver two almighty rave classics in "Genesis" & "Arcadia", with Heavy Systems Inc heading into chiptune territory via "The Devil Feels So Real Tonight". No denying it here, Kniteforce, its artists and music is the real deal.

Various

Make Rave Great Again Soviett Rave

Next up from the extensive Soviett Rave family, they unveil the stupendous collection of tracks that make up this incredible compilation entitled 'Make Rave Great Again'. The project as a whole is a dive into all areas of breakbeat flavour, from the fast paced bass dips of Boychi's 'Rageful Electric Wave' and glitchy drum skips of Jukrainian's 'Smoke Da Smoke Rythmture', through to the more slower paced rolls of Lazerchoke's 'Amen Mix' of 'Keyfit', and the more hardcore inspired synths of 'Nen' from Gmorozov. It's a powerful selection of rave-ready originals to say the least, with Nightdrive's stunning arrangement of 'Sick Rave' and the stunning soundscaping of Anton Romezz's 'Evening In Ghetto' being our two stand out originals. Incredible work!

Ejeca

Hardcore / Rave Mixtape 001 Yom Tum

Under the Ejeca alias, Gerry McCartney has regularly delivered retro-futurist singles that draw inspiration from vintage UK house and techno. This album, his full-length debut, takes this approach even further, delivering a non-stop, sweat-soaked journey through brand new rave and UK hardcore-inspired productions recorded in Southend-on-Sea last December. There's much to enjoy throughout, from the almost overwhelmingly loved-up opener, 'Rainfall', and the skittish, US garage-influenced breakbeat hardcore haziness of 'Need You', to the piano-powered happy hardcore hedonism of 'My Love', mind-melting 'Variant' and rushing 'Tell Me'. Also superb is closing cut 'Sunrise', a fittingly titled conclusion tailor made for sound-tracking sun-up moments at remote mountain raves.

Denham Audio

Transcendence Lobster Theremin

Breaking through the surface last year with a sweet run of releases via the likes of E-Beamz, Sneaker Social Club and Lobster Theremin, the Sheffield three-piece Denham Audio return to the latter with another five-track missive: Transcendence. Taking in the slightest of bleep references atop a jungle groove and soundboy lyrics is "Run Da Ting", get a second bite out of something similar (only graced by rave) in "Retort". Its lead track "Transcendence (feat 7ip7o3)" sees a lo-fi, trippy and drum and bass sound flirt with vocals and textures that evoke imagery from the film Lost in Translation, while for something retro, housier and garage tipped its all about "Top Boy" and "Club Culture".

Bazza Ranks

Neon City Vol 1 Spice Bag

Rising up through the ranks of Shango, Raider and Irish Moss Records, Bazza Ranks outta London is a consistently fresh name when it comes to throwing down all manner of house, techno, garage, jungle and RnB to rave, dancehall and breakbeat influences. With a wholly informed UK style of urban dance music and other classic genres added to his arsenal of tricks, Neon City Vol 1 provides yet more fanfare to the mix with two glitter bombs of happy house & hi nrg - aka energy energy - with Bazza's chord progressions and breakbeat drum patterns on show at large in "Don't Break Up". "Lights On" then goes for a linear groove, as if flirting with hints of progressive house before sustained strings offer a nod to classic disco that allows filtered synth lines, nostalgic rave, hardcore and old school house melodies to build themselves up into an explosion of dancefloor colour.
