Data Transmission · DT907 – RAYZIRSum up this podcast in 10 words…
House music infused with cultural elements, maintaining a steady groove.
What’s your personal favourite track on it?
Definitely my last track, Drop Thiz. I remember being in the green room at Hï, where, if you’ve been there, you know the music isn’t super clear. Suddenly, I felt the bass of my track and walked downstairs to find The Martinez Brothers testing it out in a packed Hï.
What’s the special ingredient in this mix?
The cultural influences. I love rhythms built with bongos, congas, or culturally rich vocals. It could be anything from Latin sounds like salsa and bachata to African-inspired rhythms.
Tell us about your next EP.
Guacamolly EP on Cuttin’ Headz. I spent a full year working on it, and I’m beyond grateful to have a solo EP on what I consider to be one of the best labels out there.
What have you got coming up?
My label, ZIRCLE, has some incredible music dropping this year. We’re also celebrating our one-year anniversary with Cuttin’ Headz artist Zamoras from Venezuela, bringing him to our home base at BRET in Amsterdam. Plus, I’m making my debut at Music On Festival in Amsterdam, which I’m really excited about.
And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?
Life moves forward but is understood in hindsight, just like this mix. Enjoy, much love. RAYZIR

it is Jev debuts on Phase Records DNB with his ‘Variations’ EP
20 February 2025 - Shelley Dodds
February 2025 sees Phase Records DNB welcome a fresh name to the roster. Long-standing friend of the label, it is Jev, makes his long-awaited debut with the ‘Variations EP’.
Phase Records has followed Jev’s journey since his days with PRFCT Mandem, and his achievements since then have been nothing short of impressive. With releases on heavyweight labels like Blackout and Eatbrain, he has firmly established himself in the heavy Neuro world of Drum & Bass. However, his versatility is what truly sets him apart.
The ‘Variations EP’ showcases a different side to Jev’s production, offering a diverse range of styles that stand apart from his more recent releases. The EP’s title is fitting, reflecting both the variation in production techniques and the distinct vibe of each track. This project is skatimal, playful, and designed to shake up the dancefloor, seamlessly fitting into sets across multiple sub-genres.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_xb8pyuNrmk?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

‘Revival’ sets the tone with an atmospheric and deep intro, smoothly rolling into a head-nodding drop. The title track, ‘Variations’, follows suit, carrying that skatimal energy forward with tight drums and intricate sonic details scattered throughout. True to its name, it keeps things fresh and unpredictable. Next is ‘Stoopid’, where a cheeky and memorable vocal takes centre stage, backed by a slick and efficient bassline. Closing out the EP, ‘Disturbance’ delivers a surge of heavy-hitting energy, ensuring the release ends on a high.
With the ‘Variations EP’, Jev proves once again that he is not bound by a single style, bringing his own twist to the Phase Records sound.
Today we premiere the title track ‘Variations’ which you can check out below. The EP drops tomorrow, Friday 21st February, you can get your hands on a copy here!
