It's out today and it's a corker: Total Science presents the follow up the now classic seminal compilation album that encapsulated their vision of drum & bass way back in 2001 "Tuned-In" which included the cream of the crop and the bright new stars of that era.
A decade later they've decided the time is right to do it again, piecing together a selection of their favourite new artists like Break, Fracture, Beta 2 and FD, conjuring tracks that define the CIA sound. Listen and judge for yourself.
UPP/CIRCULAR, the self-proclaimed ‘We-Create-You-Tolerate’ collective celebrates their second year in existence with a digital-only release compilation. Despite adorning various masks, the group of five eventually settled down with an identity each, selected a track or two and now they are serving them here on a hidden shelf of e-commerce.
Pay what you want for immediate download of 8-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire. Head HERE for more details.

Zul (Subvert HQ, Singapore) has been DJing and promoting parties in the Lion City since the 1990s, performing along side the likes of dBridge, DJ Friction, Joe Syntax, Stamina MC, John B, A-Sides, Pendulum, Cyantific, Sonic, London Elektricity as well as Logistics and Hospital Records' Chris Goss. Gigs-wise, its gone from Hong Kong (he spent time with the White Label crew in 2001), Jakarta to London (playing at the legendary Hospitality parties in Shoreditch, UK) with bits of radio (MediaCorp Radio's Lush 99.5FM Clubscape sessions, to be exact) and a release on Take Off Records squeezed in between.
When not busy with his day job as a journalist in Singapore, Zul also keeps it cutting edge away from the dance floor with the Subvert Sessions Podcast (download via subverthq.blogspot.sg), blending together leftfield and idiosyncratic beats of the 170bpm variety.
