stunning new drum and bass action

limited translucent blue coloured and black & white splattered vinyl.
a veteran producer from manchester formerly releasing music as deeperheightz, dylan blythin - now known as artilect, has developed a formidable style that combines classic drum and bass genre elements with propulsive, distinctive production touches. dylan made his artilect debut for samurai music with ‘ashen’ on our decade compilation. he now follows through with blurring the line, his first full release with the label. this ep serves as an audio cv for his current sonic repertoire. every track combines impeccable form with function and has seen these tunes featured in the sets of loxy, homemade weapons, clarity, presha, shiken hanzo, and the rupture radio sets with mantra and double o.

repertoire head north for their first 12- of the year courtesy of rising manchester murker artilect. -something else- is a spacious rolling piece laden with a strong late night desert atmosphere complete with snare-shaking rattlesnakes. homemade weapons is the perfect remixer of choice as he digs his claws into the space and completely switches up the drums to a combo of rolling hangdrum and thunderclap splashes of breaks in all the right sweet spots. finally we get -lost- amongst some superb razor sharp steps, haunted paranoid textures and classic rave-referencing humanised hits. absolutely authentic.

fresh off the success of versus volume one, volume two of lossless music’s various artist ep series features more fresh underground talent hand picked by ceo soul intent.
tim reaper, melani & silo take pride of place with “finite motion”. beautiful, somber and full of percussion detail this is a track that could well feature on such imprints as exit or metalheadz. london based paragon who brings his unique mix of ominous and sinister vibes with “again & again”. artilect (formally known as deeperheightz) hails from manchester and delivers a tough n ruff roller in the form of “kush”. lastly soul intent brings some serious breakbeat edits alongside eerie cinematic atmospherics with “eyes open”.
