Deekline and Wizard cemented themselves in Breakbeat folklore. Known for their Booty Breaks from back in the day they were a force to be reckoned with releasing a full album called “Breaks, Beats and Blondes” on Botchit & Scarper Records in 2004. Another one in 2009 and 2 mix compilations. Unfortunately they both parted ways but Deekline has kept producing music and travelling the world DJing till this day.

This mix is part of Breakzlinkz Retro series: www.breakzlinkz.net/retro/

When you think of a production duo it’s usually a couple of friends, or sometimes brother/sister combinations, but never normally father and son. Well the latter is exactly what we have here with, A Double, and what a team they appear to make! Their work takes on classic House tracks and sees them give the originals a modern day Tech House sound and groove. The latest of their reworks is this one of ‘Get On Up’ by, James Brown, which has a real infectious energy about it and of course a sample of the great man himself. It’s definitely one to get on up and get on down to that’s for sure!

Once you’ve sampled the delights of this tune, hit the Soundcloud link below to find a handful of other class reworks. I’m very sure we’ll be seeing these guys on the ward again!

DJ Wood is well equipped when it comes to creating huge Glitch Hop slammers and his free tune ‘Rocket Surgery’ is yet another that’ll see you blast off the ground with the full intentions of getting your bounce on once your feet hit the floor again. Don’t be fooled by the light and airy intro because once that has enticed you in, it all kicks off! Phatness of the highest order!

Hugely prolific German producers Kaiserdisco are back on one of their regular labels for a sixth fine EP of their searing grooves. That label is Drumcode, and the EP is Toleranz, a fantastic four track affair that features a fine remix from Pleasurekraft.

Hamburg based Kaiserdisco have been active since 2008, and in that time have put out 30 EPs and nearly 50 remixes. As well as running their own labels, KD Music and KD RAW, they are regulars on the likes of Suara and Tronic and are as able to headline a big festival stage as they are to lock down a more intimate club. Drumcode, of course, is one of the day’s foremost techno labels, with boss Adam Beyer ensuring only the most compelling beats make their way onto his Swedish imprint.

Up first is Get Enough, seven minutes of seductive techno that has an almost machine-gun like disco synth firing across the groove. It is a rumbling peak time track with real force and energy that will bring any floor to life. The title track, Toleranz, is a gritty and stripped back basement cut with dry hits and burrowing acid bass that takes you deep into the night. Cobra then proves this pair have real breadth in the studio and is a barrel chested house cut with more big hits, rib rattling bass and incendiary techno hi hats that really get you on your toes.

Remixing are the tech duo of Pleasurekraft, whose releases on OFF and Mood Records have won them plenty of DJ and dancing fans. They layer in some dark melodies to SQ80 and build it steadily before allowing the militant drums and crisp snares to explode and drive you and the whole club forwards.

This is another big and high impact release from both Drumcode and Kasierdisco that is sure to make its mark on anyone who hears it.

1.Get Enough

2.Toleranz

Back on the Techno tip, Ali Ahmad’s latest release has been doing very nicely. Tracks like ‘Inner Peace’ complete with great big whopping hoover riffs are just the ticket!!!

Roog regularly collabs with Dennis Quin so with that in mind, you can expect some serious fiyah when they go solo for Simma Black. Fiyah is just what we get!!!

D Vine Sound’s recent multi-artist EP features funky treats like this one from Truth Be Told. It’s time to move on, groove on!

Rhythm Control’s Ibiza Closing Party comp is a must have selection of top-class tech House. We really dig this tune by Justin Pak with it’s powerful vocal sample. Play this one in front of Donald Trump and shut that man down!

After Arteo popped on to the ward a few days ago with his latest tune ‘You’ll Never Know‘, he’s now returned with his beat making brother, Dubra, with not only a new free track, but also a nifty free mix too.

Their new track ‘Blind’ is a sublime piece of liquid bass funk that uses a Snoop Dogg sample and compared to their hefty hitters they’ve conjured up before, this one has the feel of a tune you can quite easily sink into with complete ease. That goes for their mix too which features their new tune along with Arteo’s latest track and a several other unreleased tracks that will no doubt see the light of day sometime very soon, fingers crossed! Top draw Bass Funk business from two dudes who are making very deserved names for themselves.

One of the top funkin’ labels on the planet, Bombstrikes, are responsible for delivering Dubra and Arteo’s new tune and you can expect even more from this combo as the guys have an EP due out on the label in the not to distant future. Keep your eyes peeled for what will undoubtedly be something very special.

You can never be quite sure what to expect from Technique's Ukrainian assassin. After all, MaxNRG has repeatedly proven that he's perfectly prepared to twist up a sub-genre or two in his quest for dancefloor mastery. We've seen him experiment with multiple shades of the drum and bass palette and funnel all of them through his highly individual approach to musicality.

The only constant is the presence of rock-hard drums and lethal bass.

Even in his craziest excursions, it's all about the rave.

In “Kill the Snake”, Max casts his mad scientist's eye onto a blending of styles. There's that high-energy big-room vibe somehow entwined with a more claustrophobic technoid, neuro flavour. This counterpoint is established right from the intro, as low, menacing strings are offset by a modulating ravey synth in the high end. These sounds lay the foundation for a documentary dialogue sample that gives the track it's title. Then clean pizzicato strikes mesh with an alarm-call riser to take this sound-melding tune to the drop.

The bass and beats are, as you'd expect from MaxNRG, clinically merciless. Ear-poppingly pressurised drums ride along a driving undercurrent of grittiness in the bass. The mids and highs fulfil that smooth-and-serrated combination that was laid out in the intro and take us effortlessly through building layers of drama. The energy just doesn't quit.

It's clear by now that MaxNRG is a big fan of taking established ideas and reconfiguring them almost beyond recognition. Whether it's from instinct or meticulous study, his understanding of the form shines through, without ever distracting from the drum and bass heartbeat at the core of his music. This is intelligent rave music that hits hard.

Lanx and Nick Slater, aka the Drumattic Twins, have been a leading force in dance music since they first began touring over 20 years ago. Making their name as Shades of Rhythm, they ruled the early nineties rave scene with legendary anthems ‘Sweet Sensation’, ‘Sound of Eden’, ‘Extacy’ and ‘Homicide’ and performed with the likes of The Prodigy and N-Joi.

Since rebranding themselves as the Drumattic Twins in 1997, Nick and Lanx quickly replicated this global notoriety thanks to massive hit tracks ‘Feelin Kinda Strange’ ‘Twister’ and ‘HyperSpeed’. They teamed up with the legendary release platform Finger Lickin Records in 1999 and settled quickly into the close-knit world of the breakbeat scene, working alongside global acts such as Plump DJs, Soul of Man and Lee Coombs.

From a string of releases from 1999 starting with top the selling “Feeling Kinda Strange” till late 2013 with their “Get Up and Dance EP” on Sugarbeat Records and 2 full length albums in between the Drumattic Twins have laid down a variety of music that have influenced the Breaks Scene and shaped it in to what it is today.
