Renegade Riddims: S.U.R.E.
1 May 2024 - Shelley Dodds
Introducing S.U.R.E. – an electrifying musical entity and conceptual endeavour that channels the pulsating energy of the 1990s UK rave scene, reimagined for today’s electronic music landscape.
With a fusion of contemporary innovation and nostalgic reverence, this dynamic duo has swiftly garnered acclaim for their inventive compositions and captivating performances. Their mission? To encapsulate the essence of the rave era while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of modern electronic soundscapes.
Their sonic offerings evoke a sense of déjà vu, transporting listeners back to the euphoric ambience of yesteryear while infusing it with a contemporary edge. S.U.R.E. pays homage to the foundational elements of rave culture while injecting their own distinctive flair, resulting in a seamless synthesis of past and present.
Witnessing S.U.R.E. live is an immersive journey, where each pulsating beat and resonant melody serves as a portal to a realm where time stands still and euphoria reigns supreme. Their performances transcend mere entertainment, offering a transformative experience that resonates deeply with audiences.
For those yearning to relive the glory days of 90s rave culture with a contemporary twist, S.U.R.E. stands as a beacon of authenticity and innovation. Prepare to be transported on a sonic odyssey unlike any other, where the echoes of the past converge with the possibilities of the future.
I’m really excited to bring S.U.R.E. to our Renegade Riddims series. they’ve created a banging new mix featuring a lot of old skool jungle from artists such as Rebel MC, Lennie De Ice, Renegade, Deep Blue, Goldie, Dillinja, Top Cat and more. They’ve thrown in some of their own edits and unreleased material for good measure! I reckon these guys have a big future ahead of them and I’m here for it…old skool and rave music will never die!!
Check out the mix below and download it for free here!

Q&A:
Sum up this mix in 10 words…
A tribute to the foundations and future of jungle music
What’s your personal favourite track on it?
The Ratpack – Searchin’ for my Rizla – it’s a quintessential 90s rave track; its infectious ragga energy and breakbeats perfectly captures early jungle’s rhythm and bass-heavy sound, and remains a staple in the genre’s legacy.
What’s the special ingredient in this mix?
We hope our admiration and respect for the genre shines through and if anything else it’ll be great to dance to. Plus it includes some unreleased S.U.R.E. dubs!
Tell us about your next EP…
Our next EP is a release of our track “Here We Go Again” coming out on OZO Records. It’s a proper 90s throwback 4×4 rave stomper of a tune. Classic chops and breakbeats which’ll hopefully take you back to that era of dance music.
What have you got coming up?
In addition to the EP we also recently launched our label and studio in Shoreditch called Matter of Time.  
When was the last time you actually raved?
Our last proper rave together would’ve been towards the end of last year at The Warehouse Project in Manchester – killer lineup and plenty of dancing until the early hours.
And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?
To quote the great Goldie; “If you’re gonna be good at something, be good at it. No matter what it is”

KIKA teams up with Yohani on ‘Cuckoo’
1 May 2024 - Grahame Farmer
A star is rising from the East. Dubai’s minimal maestro, Vladan Krstic AKA KICA brings you Cuckoo, featuring Sri Lankan megastar Yohani on vocals, available 3rd May on his very own brand-new label KICA Records.
Hailing from Serbia, Vladan Krstic was a professional athlete and curator of extreme sports events. Being surrounded by the incredible DJs he booked for these events, he learned to spin beats from his favourite artists, such as Ricardo Villalobos, Rolando and the Martinez brothers.
Vladan Krstic moved to Dubai in 2015 and quickly started to turn heads with his trademark dynamic sound. His five-hour sets at The Island (Dubai) became the stuff of legend. By 2020, he was one of the most in demand DJs in the UAE attracting the interest of top label Baikonur Recordings. His debut single Mini reached 4th place on Beatport, followed by a list of hit singles such as Street Dance, Dor E Dor and Caje Caje. 





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




For the last two years, Vladan Krstic has been in somewhat of a musical chrysalis, intensively listening to the best electronic music around from a plethora of different styles and studying the skills used in each, adding to his already impressive abilities.
Now, he has shed his skin, emerging like a dragonfly as KICA, with an armoury of fresh new beats, both of his own volution and of the best up and coming new artists, all soon available on KICA Records. Cuckoo is the perfect track to launch KICA Records, giving you a flavour of the kind of incredible electronic music you can expect from this exciting new label. 
“Complimenting layers of minimal tech and mirth on KICA Records, our very first banger, Cuckoo, featuring superstar singer Yohani. Cuckoo’s exotic hook quickly expands, making it impossible not to sing along, it really gets stuck in your brain. I love Yohani’s vocals. Originally, I recorded Cuckoo using a sample and sent it to Yohani for her to listen to. She loved it so much, that she immediately sent me the original, clean vocals and agreed that we just HAD to release Cuckoo for you all to enjoy.
Cuckoo is just the start of this journey for KICA Records. We’re hyped to bring you a brand-new old school. You can look forward to emerging stars that span the world of house music for a truly musical adventure.”
KICA tells us more: 



Starting with a pounding bass, hi claps and infectious timbal line, Cuckoo has you hooked instantly. Subcontinental styled synths draw you in further. By now, you realise that you are listening to something very fresh, a fusion of east and west in a totally new way, KICA framing the scene perfectly for Yohani’s enchanting vocal. “Cuckoo Cuckoo Thatha Thatha Kala Vetti /Cuckoo Cuckoo Pondhula Yaru Meen Koththi” The lyrics in Tamil expressing the biodiversity and beauty of Tamil Nadu. Released just in time for Ibiza’s opening parties, this track is ready to go global. Expect to hear Cuckoo at festivals, beach parties and the coolest clubs all summer long.
We premiere ‘Cuckoo’ on Data Transmission, check it out here and grab it on Beatport.

Kokiri bares all with ‘In My Head’ release on Perfect Havoc
30 April 2024 - Data Transmission Staff
Kokiri, one of Liverpool’s finest house music producers is back on Perfect Havoc this April with new single ‘In My Head’. 
It follows a standout 12-months for Kokiri with releases on such vital labels as SIZE, Spinnin’ and the disco-tinged release on Perfect Havoc ‘One Thing’ which saw support across the board from Arielle Free on Radio 1 to playlist adds on KISS and Capital Dance. 
Now dropping his most personal track to date, with accompanying artwork designed by Kokiri himself, ‘In My Head’ conveys a world of emotions as the artist opens his heart unlike never before. 






[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/1788308167" params="visual=true&show_artwork=true&maxheight=1000&maxwidth=1140" width="100%" height="400" iframe="true" /]





The new single, ‘In My Head’ is a complex house affair, with a beautiful flurry of synth stabs and samples, woven into a throwback piano loop. The vocals and soundscape combined convey the personal and private feelings of Kokiri at the time. 
Kokiri said, “It was a challenging time of my life dealing with my mum’s terminal illness and feeling a bit lost in my music career. As I’m not particularly open about my thoughts, writing music about how I was feeling felt almost like an escape from what was happening. The track portrays my state of mind; some were good days, some were bad. The chaotic main synth juxtaposes the calm breakdown with pads and vocals. And the vocal, “it’s only a nightmare(s), it’s just in my head,” felt fitting given my circumstances.”
The artwork for ‘In My Head’ is equally as personal for Kokiri. Inspired by the works of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Charmaine Chanakira, which resonated with Kokiri for their chaotic form and underlying storytelling, Kokiri turned his hand to design.
“Making the artwork over several sessions with Late Night Agency felt pretty therapeutic,” Kokiri explained. “The Pacman and ghosts represent using computer games as a means to escape the real world. The FL Studio logo symbolises making music to keep my mind occupied. The dancers at the top of my head signify my brain never switching off. The giant XO represents how I’d sign off cards to my mum, and the smiley face represents that no matter what was going on in my head, I’ll try and stay happy.”
There’s lots more in the pipeline from Perfect Havoc for the rest of the year with tracks landing from PS1 & Adam Griffin, Tobtok & Oliver Nelson, Stephani B and more. Now in its 9th year, Perfect Havoc continues to push the envelope of crossover house music and to build on over 10 billion global streams, six UK Top 20 singles and multiple platinum, gold, and silver awards.

5 Facts
1. My mother was 42 years old when I was born.  My parents – Alma and Alfred – had issues trying to start a family, and it wasn’t until they immigrated to the UK that they were able to receive the right treatment. I finally arrived as a happy and healthy baby to overjoyed parents on 13th June 1963.
2. I was always obsessed with singing to the point of getting into trouble at school for singing in class. Whether I was performing in the annual school musicals or dueting along with The Osmond’s or The Jackson 5 on the radio – I had to sing! When I was 16, my mother allowed me to have singing lessons a fabulous and renowned London singing teacher, Annette Batam. Over the years she taught me fantastic singing techniques and ways to preserve my voice – which has naturally matured – to become the vocalist I am today. Nettie is now 91 and we remain friends to this day.
3. After leaving Southwark College with four O-levels, I auditioned and got into St Catherine‘s Drama School in Guildford. It was a small and exclusive private school. I only completed one year out of the two year course – I realised that the acting side of show business wasn’t for me and so I devoted my life to a career of singing.
4. I was more than just a backing vocalist on Mark Morrison’s worldwide smash hit ‘Return Of The Mack’ – I should’ve been credited as a guest performer and writer! I improvised the middle 8 – the spoken, sexy voice? Don’t get me wrong, I have no regrets as I was honoured to be a credited as a backing vocalist on such a successful track that has had over 3.5 billion streams.
5. I appeared on the single ‘Move Your Body’ by Ownboss & Sevek on Spinnin’ a couple of years back. It’s had over 3 billion streams, it won an EDM Bassline Award, it is the official signature choon for F1 PlayStation 2023 and was the fourth most played song in the world that same year.

29 April 2024 - Grahame Farmer
Romanian-born DJ and producer Audio State makes a triumphant return to JAM, one year after his debut on the ‘FOUR ON JAM 09’ compilation with the hit track “Step into my Mind,” which held a permanent place in Sam Paganini‘s sets throughout the year. This time, he unveils his highly anticipated ‘Sine Wave’ EP, featuring three techno cuts that promise a sonic journey like no other.
At the helm of “Sine Wave” stands the eponymous title track, a high-octane peak-time techno belter, featuring the iconic vocals of electronic music pioneer, Delia Derbyshire. With its functional grooves, percussive synths and metallic stabs, this track is sure to leave a lasting impression.





[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0VE5mwZdi0?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]




The EP’s journey continues with “Dopamine Rush,” a powerful techno cut characterised by a modular-like trippy synth and infectious grooves that will keep listeners hooked from start to finish.
Closing out the EP is “Hypno,” a crisp and rolling tool that fits in any set and serves as a fitting conclusion to the EP, leaving listeners spellbound and craving for more.
Now standing as one of Romania’s most promising components and having already garnered widespread acclaim for his previous releases particularly from Sam Paganini himself, Audio State continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, captivating audiences worldwide.
