.shadybrain has been around for more than two years now. In this time we have released more than 40 tunes from a large pool of international artists including Phace, Pyro,Misanthrop, N.Phect & Dizplay, Bad Robot, Dementia, Robot Death Squad, Stare, Nocturnal, Catacomb, Milo, Polarity, and many more.
The first release is gonna be:- SHADYBRAIN 001 -
A - Catacomb - Buried Alive (Misanthrop RMX)
Misanthrop is one of the scene’s most promising producers and is sure to gain much attention with releases on Teebee`s Subtitles and Mayhem`s Shadow Law. In this tune, a simplistic intro gives way to a devastating drop that takes no prisoners. The tension continues to build as the heavy reece and epic stab call back and forth, taking the tune far further than just the drop. The man of the hour delivers another perfect example of dance floor terror that will punish any venue.
AA - Misanthrop - Strange Planet (Catacomb RMX)
Canada`s finest Catacomb has been heard previously on labels such as Darkitek and Citrus. With this Remix they have taken their work to another level. Angelic pads and soft textures mislead you through the intro until the vocal hook drops and a wall of sound smashes through the midrange with crisp drums. The track progresses into a halftime second break down, showing why Catacomb are to be watched closely.

PROMO RELEASE: END 2006
FULL RELEASE: EARLY 2007__
Part Time Heros ‘Realise’ EP - Four very jazz influenced tunes; good quality production. The entire album is fun and smooth but Liane Carroll’s vocal in track four makes this album a real gem.
Preview:
HB023 - Ctrl-Z continue to set the Tear-out standard. Chemistry is Big-Beat Prodigy-esque, while The Tunnel is a rip-roaring excursion on the 4×4 side of Breaks. Simply huge, supported by all the key players and their mothers!
AA: CTRL-Z- “THE TUNNEL” - Listen AA
AA: CTRL-Z - “CHEMISTRY” - Listen A
HB022 - Screwface, best known for his anthemic work with the Autobots, Cut & Run (King of the Bongo)and the best-selling Hardcore Beats release last year, “Monte”.

AA: SCREWFACE -”ARMY OF DARKNESS” - Listen AA
HB020 - Oh Lard! Simple mayhem, funky-electro-drum and breaks manuevers from Ed209 & Co. “Hell Yeah!” is truly unique and badass, while “Back It Up” brings some bootybass etiquette for the ladies!
