17 December 2024 - Shelley Dodds

Weapon Audio is kicking things off in style with its debut release, ‘Activate’ by Drum & Bass heavyweight Raiser, dropping on all major platforms on 20th December 2024.

Fresh from smashing it at UKF’s OrchestRAVE for their 15th anniversary, Raiser brings his signature sound to ‘Activate’ — a high-energy track packed with punchy basslines, crisp production, and pure dancefloor energy. Known for his ability to blend technical precision with heavyweight vibes, Raiser shows once again why he’s one of the most exciting names in the game right now.

Weapon Audio is stepping onto the scene with a clear mission: to back artists who push boundaries and bring something fresh to the table. Rooted in underground music culture, the label is all about innovation, creativity, and delivering tracks that hit hard and stay memorable. ‘Activate’ is a massive first step, setting the bar high for what’s to come.

The track itself is a proper banger — full of tension, punch, and those low-end rumbles that get crowds moving. It nods to the roots of Drum & Bass while keeping things sharp, modern, and forward-thinking. Whether you’re in the club or blasting it through your headphones, ‘Activate’ hits all the right spots.

17 December 2024 - Grahame Farmer

LA-based DJ and producer Jessica Skye has shared her ethereal new single, ‘Mindgames (Reimagined)’, out now via Platoon. The track is the second release from her upcoming downtempo remix album, ‘FluōState: Reimagined I’, which will arrive on January 17th, 2025.

‘Mindgames (Reimagined)’ reworks the original club-focused track into an otherworldly, atmospheric composition. The addition of a beguiling sitar adds a fresh dimension to Jessica’s evolving sound. The single follows the dreamy, vocal-led ‘Turiya (Reimagined)’, released last month, setting the tone for a serene, introspective collection.

The album draws inspiration from Jessica’s yoga and meditation teacher background, bridging the gap between electronic music and wellness. Transforming tracks from her acclaimed ‘FluōState 001’ and ‘FluōState 002’ albums, Jessica reimagines each piece into intricate, calming soundscapes.

Jessica shares:

“These have always been my go-to music choices when I’m trying to focus, relax, or just hold a space for myself… Re-working my own catalog for this project and purpose has been a really inspiring endeavour.”

The album offers a diverse sonic journey, from the serene, Balearic washes of ‘Virgo Rising (Reimagined)’ to the kosmiche tones of ‘Moon in Aries (Reimagined)’, alongside standout reworks like ‘Enter Nyx’ and ‘Tropic of Pisces’, which both reached Beatport’s Organic House Top Ten.

Jessica Skye continues to showcase her unique ability to blend deep grooves, ambient textures, and mindful resonance—a testament to her artistry as a producer and passion for using music to create meaningful spaces.
