Having cut their teeth with a début 12" on Peace Off's heavy dubstep sublabel Ruff in early 2008, the London-based duo Broken Notepresent their sophomore effort on Ad Noiseam with "Crux / Zealot" (adn102).

While dubstep has over the years mutated in various sub-genres and variations, Broken Note's blend is of the colossal and dark kind. Tapping in breakcore for the density of their sound, shattering their 2-step influences in a myriad of details, and not afraid of supporting their mammoth-like basses with rude, heavy beats, these musicians come up with something that finally proves that dubstep can be as massive as it was famed to be.

Set up in Utrecht (NL), they are a part of Utreg Massive. Utreg
Massive is a drum & bass, dubstep and breakbeat crew from Utrecht (NL)
currently consisting of fourteen DJ’s, promoters, producers and MC’s.

Sinister Souls started out as a Drum ‘n Bass duo, combining vinyl, CDJ
and Ableton Live; throwing their own productions into the mix. After 6
years of producing tunes, individually and together, they decided to
take the next step and send out some of those tunes. Taking on the
road of Dubstep for their main focus.

The sound has influences taken from Drum ‘n Bass, Downtempo, Breakcore
and Tekno. Making an unique sound at a 140bpm tempo. Variation is a
key element, no moments of dozing of into endless monotone subs and
continues beats. They set out for the noise that makes you want to
jump up and put on your bassface.
With tracks out on ROTTUN recordings and forthcoming on S.C.U.M., Dub Bullet and Independenza, they are one to watch.

Now, Sinister Souls will blow that sound out of your speakers, or any
other means of sound manifestations near you. Check out the homepage

One of the main sharks in the Breakcore North Sea, Rotterdam-based FFF is a phenomenon, pushing the breaks, the rave and the core to the next level with intense beatmanipulation and can be considered a menace to dancefloors across the world. Without restrain, FFF drags his listeners through a journey of destructive rattles and humms, leaving them wasted, worn-out and begging for more. Raw but far from uncut, you can be sure that this Dutch breakcore-a-gogo maniac will not leave until you can scrape the blood off the walls.

Captain Spectre manages to combine breakbeats and punk flawlessly into one solid, seductive piece of evidence that distortion can be both pretty and powerful. Hailing from the United States, Aaron Spectre has pushed the boundries of the rougher edges of jungle and breakcore to a point where ambience and melody go hand in hand with glitch and core. His livesets are energetic, original and heavily improvised rushes of liquid acid, taking even his own tracks to level eleven.

Pretentious beatwork-a-holic Benefit of the Boomerang (BotB) has been contaminating his bathroom breakcore with drama and bombastic compositions since day one. Inspired by jazz, jungle and classical music, he aims to turn up the intensity of dancemusic, seeking the boundries of the danceable, without using wet distortion to compensate the lack of talent. Like an openheart operation at thirteen degrees Kelvin: pretty cool.
