An outstanding collection of the most powerful and heavy sounds, carefully crafted by the masters of Neurofunk. Since appearing on the scene in 1999, they have had many releases that are regarded as groundbreaking in the field of Drum’n’bass but also in the advent of Dubstep. Over the years, they have collaborated with Noisia, Foreign Beggars, State of Mind, The Upbeats, Pythius and Gridlok with releases on DSCI4, Renegade Hardware, Vision, Ram Records, Never Say Die, UKF and many more. This led to them forming their own imprint called Blackout. The diversity of this label is what’s in store for you here.
