With this single, Damageman has created something with a tasty amount of bite to it and which will give you the pick me up you need after the bloating Christmas period. 'Shadow Soul' is the better of the two, an ominous synthy introduction builds up tension deliciously before its all released on the drop, a furious amalgamation of distorted and disparate hits and cuts, Original Sin style. 'One Of Us' is more mellow not that much more, still containing a distinctly murky set of back end shudders and still possessing a formidable sense of momentum and travel.

Amplify is a name we're becoming more familiar with and they've come out with a properly good collection of tracks here, tunes with an urban-edged spin on modern D&B and jungle. They're tunes which you can imagine hearing out your mates' car, and that's a very good thing. 'Out of Me' is a rolling number and it's one with a wicked choppy bass and a satisfying sense of sparseness in the drums, a pulsating yet expansive cut that'd go down well just about anywhere. 'Miracle' is the proper dark stuff, the broken drum stutters and eerie sampling giving it that vibe that only this music can impart. Wicked selection.

If you love jungle this will be the release for you, as Rainforest and Calculon take a deep dive into the fractious world of 160 and 170 jungle, blending floating sample work with crisp percussion of the type which makes or breaks releases like this. They've nailed it, and it's especially apparent on 'Homebwoy Jungle', which makes full use of the added groove possible when you dip down 10bpm and focus on core aspects - sensational.

Review: Celsius Recordings, what a label. The only criticism you could level at these guys is that they release too much music, because it feels as if every single week there's another EP, or a single or an album. This week it's a VA EP from a whole bunch of acts and they're dropping Heat Runner, an EP with a title track that sticks up to its name; soft, gentle and certainly deft in how an array of fluffy sampling sits above a solid drum line. 'Where I Wanna Go' pushes things up a notch intensity wise, with a new burst of energy coming from that funky sample loop and tight back end, a true bit of liquid funk. Another good bit of A&R from these guys, and great to see some new producers being brought through.

This is a monster of a remix album, as Calculon has roped in an all-star cast of names from the world of slower, breaksy music: Om Unit, Deft, Survival, Lewis James, Fanu and more. Lewis James, of Exit Records vintage, especially impresses, as his remix of 'Get Murked' makes its way through analogue soundscapes via a vessel of bouncy junglist breaks, a truly funky yet hard-hitting arrangement that rolls out to your heart's content. Deft's remix of 'Get Murked' takes a different direction, with oodles of space for his halftime approach to reap dividends amidst a serious commitment to soul and funk. Top album.

Astrou is a new music producer from Russia. It became a new bet within the Liquid Drum and Bass format, with large signatures within Celsius Recordings and DNBB Records. Its basslines and beats refer much to the already established Logistics and High Contrast. It is worth keeping an eye on this guy!
