Young Guns Recordings
Played by: Juno Recommends Drum & Bass
Review: We're not sure who OZ>ONE is but wow have they made an impression on us in the last few months with a series of releases on the likes of Audio Addict, Pick The Lot, Breakbeats & Basslines and now Fatman D's Young Guns. Flexing a wild and unpredictable style, this EP captures the young artist at their most vibrant and fizzy. Highlights include the humanised elements and melodic layers of 'Dig It', the gurgling tension and eerie drama of 'Took My Soul', the pure ruffage and skank dynamite of 'Noisey Antics' and the breath-taking harmonics on 'Eagle Dub'. Soul good!

Review: Young Guns Recordings are an insurgent force of a label who have been steadily growing for the last few years. Teezy is the latest producer to join the family and his offering is one of stripped back sonics and fierce minimalism, a nod to the label's stylistic grounding and a reflection of his sound. Its title track - 'Countdown' - is a big tune that keeps to a ferocious pace in drums which smack of the old school, whilst a intertwined, rippling basslines keep things moving as well. 'Selecta' has a wonderfully heavy foghorn on it that shudders with force and has that high resonance we all love so much. The rest of the EP is also pure gold as well - proper drum & bass for true heads.

Review: Young Guns was originally set up in 2012 by Biological Beats head honcho MC Fatman D as a brand new event concept, showcasing fresh talent at live events across the country. Since 2015, they have evolved into Young Guns Recordings and here they present their latest courtesy of Hyn aka Chris Haynes, an emerging artist from Bristol with his twisted sound that has been heard previously on Brawlin Beats, OnlyJungle and Helix. The London EP features the wobbly grime bassline of the title track, the minimal roller "Dada" reminiscent of classic DJ Krust and the darkside tehctsep thriller "Change".

Review: One of the many sick soundboys to emerge out of Newcastle these days, KL hits the bullseye once again, this time on Fatman D's Young Guns. It kicks off with 'Cast Iron', a fun-times roller with a playful Zinc or Serum style air about it and some cavernous effects on the bassline. It's backed by plenty more incendiary buzzers: the pitched up vocal and screaming bass moans of 'I Need' and the steel-edged grizzler 'Impossible' are both highlights. Tough stuff. Don't cast stones, cast iron...

Review: Fatman D's Young Guns introduce newcomer Belgian talent Atmosphere to the world with this massive entrance EP. 'Horror' by name, sublime by nature, he instantly sets his stall out with clarity as the title track tags in the one and only Flowdan for some devilish industrial-strength dnb. Flipping the vibe from there on in, the EP covers a lot of ground. 'Run' shimmies along with barbed soul, 'Revelation' is pure glitch funk fun and the brilliantly-titled 'Nice Boom' is a twisted hybrid-style slap-about that will leave you feeling like your circuits have been corrupted. And that's just the tip of Atmosphere's macabre iceberg. We're expecting a lot more high-grade material from this man in the future.

Review: Duck and cover! Tomoyoshi's running around waggling his cleaver and things are about to get pretty savage. The latest in an epic string of killer releases this year from the Berlin-based Japanese new gen artist, across the six tracks he reveals his many layers; from the deep, silky and purring ('Meditation') to the raw and heavy ('Murder Sword') by way of supreme slippery sci-fi funk ('Skip Rope') and insane tripletty subby bangers in between ('Space Raider'), this is one of Tomoyoshi's biggest releases to date.

Review: Turn it up! Amplify follows up his co-lab with Curvurs on Young Guns earlier this summer with two gritty solo stink-ups. 'Right There' is a playful but powerful blast-up with a squelchy bassline that strolls up and down the scales while a sultry vocal does its thing in the background. Think early Die and you're on the right dancefloor. 'Roughest' takes us a little deeper into Amplify's circuitry with a much grumpier bassline and more stripped-back sense of savagery. A highly accomplished solo debut.

Review: Young Guns Recordings have a long history of putting out music that takes no prisoners on the dancefloor and, whilst we're still clubless, this four-tracker from Zeba is sure to get your gun fingers raised at home. 'Carry Me Home' is the most interesting of the bunch, with an almost grime like approach to its steppy percussion and structured drum claps that reminds us of Diemantle. The title tune - 'Chemical Warfare' - is the other highlight, with a piercingly choppy synth arrangement that sees jabbing stabs tumble over on another in their haste to mess you around. Big stuff.

Review: Smoking, swearing, smartphone addiction, petty pilfering, being alive and taking up valuable oxygen... Whatever your chosen bad habit is, Nkid has the perfect soundtrack. Teaming up with fellow Young Gun / Biological family member Puppetz, the pots and pans riddim is the perfect soundtrack to all things naughty but nice. Elsewhere Nkid goes solo with three fast-lane master bangers: "Helicopter" is a bashy little bruiser, "Vibe" is a full tank tear-up with a clipped staccato riff while "Bad" closes with the biggest swagger of the EP. Watch out for the riffle kick drums before the drop. Bad to the bone!

Review: Following May's part one, young Luxembourg producer returns to Young Guns with the second chapter... And it's every bit as crisp, diverse and hard hitting as the first edition. "Come Back To Me" eases us in with a few ivory tinkles and supreme levels of funk before the likes of "Evil" and "Five-O" plunge us deep into the bassline pit. Deeper again we hit the strange harmonic wriggles and toxic bassline grizzles of "I Tell Ya" before "Old School" closes on a sumo-sized swaggering 2010-flavoured tip. Time to Escalate m8.

Review: You'd hope that the good men and women behind Young Guns Recordings don't actually carry weapons, but this EP proves that they do. Master Error lands on the label with a five-tracker that's rooted in the current contours of the UK underground, a riotous and rough release that isn't too bothered about its occasionally unseemly fringes. 'Escalation Protocol' is a good name for the first track, an expansive stepper that oozes and pulses from its core with a surprising amount of groove. 'Run It Back' is the other standout track of the five, with a precision percussive line that gets its weight from a diving sine bass and wobbly, fluttering synths that remind us of a neurofunk tune. Sick stuff.

Dub Sense lands on the label with a two-tracker that's rooted in the current contours of the UK underground, a riotous and rough release that isn't too bothered about its occasionally unseemly fringes. 'Andromeda' is a good name for the first track, an expansive stepper that oozes and pulses from its core with a surprising amount of groove, resonating on a celestial level in line with its name. 'You First' is the flipside with a rolling percussive line that gets its weight from a massively sharp, pitched up main synth line and a foreboding sample.

Review: Enta is a prolific jump-up producer and Young Guns have released that side of his productions before, but this Paralysis EP is something different, something a bit more brooding and stripped back. There are some wicked minimal vibes here, especially on 'Straight 2 Ya Head', which combines a double kick, a diving sub bass and eerie vocal shimmers to foment a tapstry of minimalistic depth, one which gradually gets bigger and bigger. 'Tokyo Drift' combines the two sounds in a really cool way that reminds us of Simula, whilst 'Never Be Mine' has a foreboding air to its stabby synthetic construction. Top work.

Review: This release is big. Not in a super fancy or sophisticated way but in the ways that matter, the ways that mean you'll be going hard on a dancefloor at 5am somewhere when one of these tracks comes on. Master Error is responsible and he's over on Young Guns Recordings this time around, Artillery is the name of the release and it's fitting. 'Braindead' is straight up roller business, with a towering intro that cuts away on the drop, leaving a pure line of energy and rattling percussion in its wake. 'Rush', 'Artillery' and 'Assault' step up the craziness even more and are where this extended EP really gets going. Top work.

Review: Toxinate and Young Guns - two names that you should've heard of if you're into your jump up - have teamed up for a naughty collection of tunes that will strike a chord with anyone who's been tapped into the jump-up resurgence these past couple of years. With a diverse range of sounds within the jump-up canopy, Serial Killer is an EP on a mission, a mission statement if you will. The title track has a wicked set of snapping, rolling drums that underpin a gargling amalgamation of sounds, textures and tones - this is proper stuff. The rest of the release continues on that same trajectory and man, it's sick.

Review: Move over Theresa May, the real leader is back in the powerseat and already the world terror level has reduced and the economy has stabilised. How couldn't it when you've got riffs as cheeky as the rush-wrapped "Atari" or basses as a zippy and wasp-like as the one on "Changes". Elsewhere "Glitch String" will have you cabinet-reshuffling all the way to the bedroom with its squidged-out bass warps and "Pimp Talk" will have you hurling your shoes and shouting 'ho!' before you can say hard Brexit.

Review: Watch out! You're gonna get hit. From the drop this 'Mind Control' is on a rampage and is locked, loaded and ready to shoot you down with an onslaught of laser gunshot! 'Never Over' is very typical floor filling jump up, it is a slower stepper with a squelching bass, scraping pneumatic drills and a tough in check film sample. 'Mumbo Jumbo' and 'Famous Killer' follow a similar format of filthy basslines and a whole heap of lasers, get ready for some screw faces on the floor.

Review: Some of us reach for the stars. Other, more superhuman-like, people reach for entire solar systems... And get them. Superhumans like yung Tsuki who has consistently smashed every door down in sight since emerging 18 months ago. Crafty with the riff magic, every bassline he conjures could make your nan shake and these are no exception; the pitch-shifting bassline mutations on the title track, the rattling organic drum fill and high/low Q&A riff on "RGB" and the venomous hook on "Terror" are just three certifiable shakers. Stay tuned. For his next trick Tsuki will be reaching for the universe...

Review: All hail our new leader! Monotype's "Queen Of Blood" is here, and she's ruling with an iron fist! Make that six iron fists... "What Is Going On" is a screeched out danger-stepper, "Queen Of Blood" slaps with a trippy woodblock rhythm and a densely packed bassline of multi-layers while "No Double Checkin" and "Mutated Beast" are much muddier, grumbling jams for those all-essential heads-down sessions. We close on two monstrous collabs: "Step Back" (with Lupo) is a hurricane of warped textures that really comes into its own on the second drop while "Science" (with Mamoet) brings us to a techy climax with raw alien soul. God save our (blood) queen!

Review: Carving his sound with a cleaver and cauterising it with molten bass lava on labels such as Smoke Signal, Murky and Murda, Operate makes his debut on Young Guns and he's brought along a few mates for the ride. The range is instant and high impact from his solo stuff alone; the cosmic contrast on "Fireproof", the wonky, woozy staccato bass, dizzy drums and talkbox textures of "Shapeshifters" and graveyard paranoia of "Calysto". Co-lab wise Subsonic saddles up for the gnarliest jump up cut of the collection ("Tremors") while Kanine collides for the head-turning "Regulate" which nods at the past with a primal warhead attitude. Badness.

Review: Heaviness: H.E.N.C.H man Kahlil applies his snubnosed dubstep science to D&B once again with one of his largest releases to date. Highlights include the raw metallic textures and vocal sample on "There's A War", the croaky talking bass on "Loyal Killa", the space-aged synths and female vocal lick on "Missing You" and the pure filth and energy of his Hizzleguy co-lab "Machines". Utter gutter business.
