Based in Guildford, UK Axon is a new up and coming drum and bass producer and DJ. Deep techy sounds, with an original twist Axon takes inspiration from genre innovators such as Rockwell, Data, Dub Phizix, Skeptical, and Loxy. He has had previous success in dubstep duo Magic Mash, and is now pursuing a path down the 170bpm side of things. Axon is also a line-manager at newly formed legal underground music station Kane FM, and a promoter/resident for Subterra's Rotation Events. It is with greet pleasure that we present to you his debut EP with us titled Fibres EP.

Fires begins its journey with a squinting atmosphere, accompanied with precise poly rhythmic sounds and glitches to create a back bone for snappy beats, hard hitting subs and tight saw and bleep edits!

Making the no.2 spot on the bundle is Relapse. Axon seriously goes in on this one catering more for the dancefloor with a faster paced energetic vibe! Captivate yourself in Relape as it rolls out with accurate percussion, droning bass and hot stepping beats! All of which stays originally firm to his sound yet switches it up a notch or two which is exactly what we like. . .Nice!

Stripping things back a bit is Ice. Starting things off we are treated to more of Axon's signature sound as this techy flavour marches down the line with pitched perfect drums, squelching synthesis sounds and pumping sub bass!

Redial comes in the shape of a more broken beat number, whilst still being eligible for the D&B spectrum. Minimal soundscapes begin to arise to form a backdrop for grooving drums, rich flows and hard stabbing basses! Remarkable stereo imaging techniques keep the dynamics of the track interesting and with the production stepping up every few bars or so, we think its safe to say that this one is sure to get heads bouncing around dancefloors the world over!

PROX030 - Axon - Fibres EP is out 16th April 2012 and will be available from Beatport, itunes, dnba, Trackitdown and all other good stores.
