Drum and Bass dj and producer S.V.S. gets down and dirty at this month’s new releases. With dnb/jungle flooding the market there’s plenty of sleepers to miss out on. Here’s his list of hot hits and ones you may have missed just for your flight cases.

 Psidream & Gabriel / Demo & Cease – Slangin’ Beats / Turf War – Cymbalism (CYMB004P)
Toronto continues to take over the world as Psidream and Gabriel tag up on ‘Slangin’ Beats’. Bass driving and heavy hitting with all the new school sounds and a touch of the old when they bring back some classic techstep synths. Demo and Cease hold up the flip side with ‘Turf War’ as they take it back to the streets the only way they know how… hard, nasty, and dirty. Gut pounding bass and face punching drums make this hit on everyone’s list. www.cymbalismrecordings.com

 Mason & D Star – Zerosum (Klute Remix) / Roots – Gasm Recordings (GASM004)

Klute come in to remix a hard hitting smash from the duo of Mason and Dstar. The Zerosum remix goes top
speed with its rolling drums and nice use of vocals. This is a definite track to get the heart pumping. Flying solo on the flip, Mason and Dstar hit hard with ‘Roots’. Equipped with old style piano stabs, rolling kicks, and eerie vocals this track is bound to start the apocalypses.

 Gein – Hate / Father Of Lies – Freak Recordings (FREAK017)

These mad men from the great north city of Killwaukee come at it once again with their latest release on Freak Recordings. Hate is a powerful and emotional track that will have you in an uproar. It’s everything a track with that name would be expected, anger, pain, and riding bassline from the depths of hell. ‘Father of Lies’ starts off as if you were being beaten with an aluminum baseball bat. Hard metal drums and stabbing bass takes you to the drop of the track where the bat beating worsens and the track explodes in horror. *Not for the faint hearted. *

 Spor vs Infiltrata / Infiltrata vs Kano – Three Faces / Poor Bomb – Barcode Recordings (BAR014)

Spor and Infiltrata team up here for ‘Three Faces’, a hard masher of a track with heavy pounding drums.
Smash techniques and grumpy basslines make this track for all hardcore fanatics. On the other side Infiltrata is back at it again, this time with Kano for a total mind warp classic underway. Thick drums and a bouncy bass soon take control in this schizo pounder. Be on the look out for many more released from all three artists.

running through color

A couple of folks from our crew participated in a run out at a local elementary school.  The entire schools showed for this one, lined up and ready to be splashed with some colored powder or another. The more they ran the more colorful they became.  Beats all around set a festive tone for everyone. Those of us participating chilled on the playground after a few laps, then joined back in for another lap or two to close out the day.    Free drinks and snacks refreshed those otherwise banned from enjoying the ice cream truck.

heptalogy honors eclipse

A random encounter found us in downtown Little Rock, anticipating a performance of Holst's "The Planets" by the  Arkansas Symphony Orchestra .  The much-anticipated event included a vocal cameo from the University of Arkansas - Little Rock Women's Choir.  An evening of colorful sound began with "Night Ferry" by Anna Clyne , exploring the extremes of manic depression.   The chaotic range of emotional intensities seemed to leave the audience in a state of bewildered fascination. After an intermission wide enough to refresh mind and body, "The Planets" by Gustav Holst exploded in the mind's eye next.  This particular space heptalogy is likely one of the most recognizable symphonies, enjoyed through a variety of inspirations like the score from Star Wars.  The choir entered near the end, perhaps at Neptune, blending in imperceptibly with the violins and their accompaniment.   Their voices appeared as if by magic from behind the sc

  An afternoon focused on technology down at J. Rieger & Co. broke up the week nicely, offering a unique learning experience from Pomerol Partners.  Lunch and presentations associated with machine learning and data stack modernization were followed by a discussion around large language models with a few Kansas City IT leaders.   Immediately following that, Abstract Technologies talked about LATAM opportunities through nearshoring staffing services, followed by Black Khaki Brand Communicators discussing maintenance of organization cultural wellness.  Topping things off like a cherry on top, we learned of a new podcast worth listening in on, entitled " Drinks and Data ," hosted by KC technology leaders Kanon Cozad and Shawn Helwig.
