Review: Stanton Warriors were pleasantly surprised when a demo from Brazil arrived on their doorstep. The demo was from none other than Bombo Rosa, possibly Brazil's only break beat-style act, and so impressed were the Warriors that they signed the guys to their very own Punks label. Their first release for them, Make It Bang, is a jaw-dropping short, sharp introductory jab in the solar plexus. Sounding like nothing else around right now, the track is four and a half minutes of stop-start dirty breaks with a red blooded Latin twist. A dancefloor monster if ever we heard one!

Review: The 21 year old Manchester dubstep wunderkind Hypho is back on esteemed UK bass imprint Punks run by Stanton Warriors. He offers up "Fiyah" firstly, which is dark and dystopian street level futurism: plain and simple! Second offering "Scatter" shows more restraint but is equally as powerful in its exploration of sci-fi bass therapy; only difference is that these aliens are smoking some serious kush! This young gun really is one to watch.

Review: Since starting out back in 2012, young UK producer Joey McCrilley has rocketed to the top of many people's one to watch lists. Here he maintains momentum by dropping a cheeky two-track single. First up is "Lights Out" which is a remarkable slice of haunted late-night-jungle beats and sounds. On the digital flipside, "What's Up" is a tough and skippy breakbeat jam. Full, bassy and chromium plated, this guy's productions are gonna be around for a long time.

Review: "Sunglasses, Champagne and jewellery" what more could anyone ask from life? Well, maybe some killer beats too and here Badjokes duly obliges with two ribcage rattling collaborations for bass fiends everywhere. First up we get "Champagne" (featuring Jay Robinson) and its aforementioned lifestyle mantra set to razor sharp ghetto/booty beats and harsh bass attacks. "Drop Down Low" meanwhile, pursues a hip-hop/trap route with descending stabs that dance around a stop/start strip club groove. All killer, no filler.

Review: Following on from a successful appearance on the Punks Warehouse Selection album, Canadian producer Zander now looks to the future by hooking up with Dallas resident Left/Right (aka Chris Lund). The results are electric and have already received props from the likes of The Crystal Method, MJ Cole, Krafty Kuts, Sly-One and Nick Thayer. "Cant' Stop" is a prime slice of brooding and intense breaks with serious dark alley vibes, all brought to life by some impressive synth work. Let's hope they keep these collaborations coming!

Review: Stanton Warriors have been on a mission to bring us the finest broken beat and heavy bass on Punks Music since 2001. Here the debut volume of the their new 'Punks Selection' series is curated by Mafia Kiss and focuses in 'on the deeper/stripped sounding side of the label's roster'. There is a whopping 22 track featured, as well as a one-hour DJ mix. Highlights include the urgent, haunted bounce of "The Oracle" by Leda Stray, the sultry, late night breakbeats of "K2" by Aloka and the scattershot ghetto beats of "Check Me Out" by Sly One.

Review: Veteran DJ duo Plump DJs recently delivered their big room anthem "Yes Yes" to unanimous approval. Now we get to revisit the banger via a new remix by none other than the mighty Hybrid Theory. Although the essence of the original is retained, HT swaps most of the tribal/baile drum rhythms for more of a wobble-heavy 4 x 4 workout. Stripped back and fresh, this anthem's success is now going to last all summer!

Review: Here we have the latest short sharp shock from veteran DJ act Plump DJs. Moving on from the retro electro of their previous missive, Iou One, this time around they are aiming straight for the big rooms, peak time. "Yes Yes" is a big, blunt party anthem, with "Hustler"-era Simian Mobile Disco vocal samples and beefy tribal/baile drum rhythms. Hold on to your hats folks the confetti cannon's gonna blow!

Review: Already home to the likes of Stanton Warriors, Plump DJs and Sly-One, Punks Records now unveil their latest signing, the mysterious Leda Stray. Having already picked up some heavy support from Radio 1, Kiss FM and Rinse FM this single is a runaway smash. There are two intense call to arms, or dancefloors at least, on here. First up is "The Oracle", which is a phenomenal slice of sassy late night garage with an added tropical skippiness. "The Vision" meanwhile, is dark, diva-led, laser breaks. All in all a welcome new talent indeed.

Review: Electro, sometimes if it ain't broke, don't fix it. That's certainly how the Plump DJs feel. Here they present "Iou One", another in a long line of one-shot singles paying homage to the classics of the genre. This time Freeze are in the frame with their b-boy classic AEIOU getting a right rinsing that will work modern dancefloors into a frenzy.

Review: 601 are breaking their relative silence since their We Do Bass album three years ago. We've had the odd appearance here and there, but this is their first proper single since. They've not lost their mojo though, far from it - "Ubad" is one of the most badass slices of laser-ghetto breaks they've ever done. "Protest Dirty" on the other hand goes into more epic territory - with ominous, rumbling bass, intense beats and incessant vocal snippets. A welcome return.

Review: It's clear Nixon's latest two-track is clearly influenced by pirate radio. "Subculture" features militaristic drum rolls and doomy bass coupled with surprisingly sensitive melodic outbursts, meanwhile "Step Into The Light" is all about late night, neon melancholia. A class act indeed.

Review: Girls and money make the world go round, and so do killer basslines. This has all three, boasting two cuts so powerful they make tremors on the dancefloor. The title track features a metallic wobble bassline wrestling with heavy breaks, whilst "In Your Eyes" causes equal damage with the aid of some serious booty beats and...a xylophone!

Review: German Bass man Marten Horger has previously had his booty bass sound described as the kind that will leave people's butts raw for weeks. It's hard to argue with this, as following a deceptively sugary intro, "Deeper Down" delivers a bottom end riff, so raw and low that it's likely to cause all kinds of permanent damage to peoples rear ends, inside and out. If that wasn't enough, "Time For Action" is a dancefloor-massacring ghetto house melange of cowbells and kicks. Simply awesome.

Review: As the Punks operation sails past its 50th release, the label welcomes back a familiar face in Nixon whose Simple Minds transmission is a short and sharp two-tracker. Moody, almost gothic, synthscapes are the order of the day on both tunes: The title track mixes sparse, deep 2-step style rhythms with freestyle breaks and dread vocals, whilst "Watch Dis" eases the tempo down just a notch as Nixon shows off his talents for crafting ambient pads with the results almost like vintage Good Lookin' played at the wrong speed.

Review: Beat makers for labels like Shifting Peaks, the several Discover platforms, and now Punks, Sly One deliver a four-track EP of ghetto-laced club fusions, with the subby low end and skittering footwork cut ups of "Heat 'Em Up" a highlight. Last track "Run That" is a stripped back 'bad man' ragga tune of of spacious drums, while lead cut "Sweat" is dirty and sinister in the old school sense. For touches of jungle hit up "The Six Four".

Review: This breaks-obsessed Californian producer recently dropped his Wes Smith Yo album to great acclaim. Now following DJ love from Stanton Warriors and The Crystal Method, Smith is already back on top form with a lean and mean EP. Each of the four tracks here are unapologetic with their dancefloor intent; "Techwork" boasts delirium-inducing breakdowns and "The Tribe" takes hand-in-the-air rave stabs and welds them to vintage electro. "Rave On" fuses harsh dubstep bass with ghetto breaks and "Punk Bass" mashes up sleazy tropical riddims, EDM and stadium rock in a way never heard before!

Review: Two of breakbeat's most creative minds on one of the beats scene's most consistent labels: First release in December 2014, Mafia Kiss's slinky synth-snapping "High" gets a bouncy groove treatment from Marten Horger. Maintaining the classic rave vocal sample while adding more euphoria into the hook, it's a welcomed update that doesn't detract from the original's evergreen appeal. Get "High" today.

Review: Serious talk: Skapes returns to the Stanton Warriors' Punks imprint for another full-spectrum EP. "Serious" sees him team up with serial collaborator Jamie George (a songwriter previously spotted with the likes of Roska and Chris Lorenzo) for a choppy 4/4 speed garage style roller. Deeper into the release we play air trumpet on the clattering, speaker shattering "Hear Me Now", we strut like it's 1997 all over again on "Get On Up" before getting pummelled by deep squid bass on "Tumblin". Proof that Punks know their four-to-the-floor just as well as they know their fractured funk, Skapes has created a winningly fresh document right here.

Review: Ahead of their forthcoming and wildly-anticipated new album Warriors, Stanton Warriors have dropped the live-wire "New York" single in advance - and it's got us seriously panting for more. With a heavy electro sheen to the boogie-inspired synths, the Warriors have injected their trademark sound with a little more funk than usual, whilst keeping the drums huge and breaks-based. A big tune from an outfit that know how to deliver it large.
