Soul Ex Machina returns with a rework of Hard to Frame’s material, inviting a cast of producers to reshape the originals into inspirations shaped by each of the artists involved. This EP drifts through melodic dubstep, dub, and halftime, but resists settling into any single space. Instead of dramatic reinvention, the remixes feel like alternate timelines. Echoes stretch further, basslines hit differently, and familiar elements take on new meaning. Tone and intention, built for late-night listening and deep systems alike—quietly expansive, yet grounded.

SEMXX5 marks Johney’s third release on Soul Ex Machina and reinforces his role as a core member of the collective. The EP explores dubby 170 bpm halftime and deep drum and bass through a stripped-back, primal approach focused on weight, space, and control rather than excess.

Presenting @amplitudacz for tenth SEMCAST appearance — a deep dive into the sonic universe through a 100% self-produced selection. Following releases on Soul Ex Machina, the Brno-based artist returns with a cohesive journey spanning atmospheric 140 dubstep-leaning cuts and 170 jungle / drum & bass explorations. The mix flows through pads, breakwork and present basslines, blurring tempo boundaries while maintaining a dreamlike, introspective mood. SEMCAST010 captures amplituda’s signature approach: emotive, spacious, and driven by subtle progression with hidden intensity. Mastered by @sayko

2025 is going to wrap up and we take a look back, wanting to say a heartfelt thank you to all the great artists we worked with and huge thanks to all the fans that supported us along. Been a exciting ride. Here is the freebie closing this yes. Cheers!

Hotdogg is the first raindrop flickering in the neon-heated, forgotten alleys of night-time Tokyo, an ephemeral reminiscence of a summer you never experienced, yet you know it intimately, a Friday rave of teenagers in their parents’ garage. Come choose, and you’ll get an extra portion. With roots in dub soundsystem sessions and years of tireless organising of electronic parties under the banner of Haze Boys (https://hearthis.at/haze-boys/), as well as recording varied radio sessions for Threads radio, he has returned in his later years to his beloved breaks. This SEMCAST shows just a taste of his eclectic selection – from meditative breaks, through (atmospheric) jungle, to juke and beyond… Sit down, tune in and enjoy. Mastered by @sayko

From the depths of the underground comes Heathen with a devastating halftime offering that drips with atmosphere and intent. Carcosa unravels like a ritual—uneasy textures and low-end pressure weaving through shadowy spaces, pulling you into its dark orbit. Subterra plunges deeper still—rolling sub frequencies and sparse percussion evoking the feeling of being buried beneath the weight of sound itself. Coming as digital download and streams on Soul Ex Machina, November 14th 2025.

The first release in the semblk series sets an uncompromising tone for this new imprint dedicated to darker, more introspective strains of 170 bpm music. Limited to just 30 lathe-cut black label plates, encased in full artwork handmade screen-printed sleeves, this series is clearly aimed at collectors and those who cherish the tactile, raw experience of vinyl. Kicking things off is Hungarian producer St.Iff with The Repressed Urge, a four-track exploration of the shadowy edges of drum & bass, jungle, and halfstep. The A1 title track immediately plunges into murky depths with tense atmospherics and fractured percussion. On A2, St.Iff teams up with Manchester’s Artilect for “Percival,” pushing the momentum into a brooding jungle roller laced with ghostly pads and shuffling breaks. Flip to the B side and “Hollow Out” continues the descent, stripping things back with skeletal drums and cavernous low-end pressure that feels almost ritualistic. The closing track, “Urawa,” sees St.Iff joined by Focal Point for a bleak halfstep excursion, where sparse kicks echo through dense fogs of texture, amplifying the EP’s psychological pull.

The second installment in the SEMPLATE series arrives with force, presenting "Clones" — four-track EP by British duo Evasion & Conman. Run of 200 copies on transparent red / black splatter vinyl. Across the record, Evasion & Conman navigate the spaces between drum and bass, jungle, and breaks, crafting a sound that is both raw and futuristic. Written & produced by Evasion & Conman @semfree facebook.com/SoulExMachinaDnB instagram.com/soulexmachinadnb Mastered by Plantpower Mastering

The latest edition of the SEMCAST series comes courtesy of Evasion & Conman. Blending jungle, 140 jungle, breakbeat hardcore, and drum and bass, the mix cuts a sharp path through the duo’s own productions alongside a wide spectrum of influences, tracing the lineage of the UK underground while pushing into darker, futuristic territory. Packed with heavy percussion, rolling break edits, and atmospheric depth, the mix doesn’t just showcase where Evasion & Conman have come from — it hints at where they’re headed. Fans will catch glimpses of the energy and tension that define their upcoming “Clones” EP. @jack-evasion-evo @conmanuk Mastered by @sayko

One of the standout pieces within this auditory venture is the entrancing composition titled "Emotive. As the music becomes a conduit for a myriad of sentiments, this track is the nod both to the roots of the of drum&bass and its delicate, unconventional forms.

In this moment of very end of the year, Soul Ex Machina is going to complete catalogue with fifth single on the imprint and the final release of 2021. We are, once again, bringing out the soundsystem oriented dubstep raw two tracker, this time from the lab of London based Obskure, as his very first appearance on the label. "Nonsense Dub" is pure homage to the golden years of dubstep sound. Stripped down to the bones, showing its crystal crisp drums, ominous ambiences, sharp wobbles and fat subbass base. Be sure to play loud and watch ya bassbins! The "Yoshimitsu" is one of the kind of dark and evil stompers. The still-evolving drum line and percussion with rich delay work, bassline riffs and sinister atmospherics that make you feel there is fight scene approaching! SEM005 is coming out 31st of December. Hailing from East London, Obskure puts together foundations of the genre with fresh, personal approach to reflection of multiple musical inspirations, coming from dub roots, ambient music, grime and many other electronic and also non-electronic genres. Altogether with staying true to the sound and aesthetics of dubstep origins, Obskure´s music is ready to blow up to get known through international scene.

Soul Ex Machina is falling back into drum & bass depths from the lab of Daniel Weirdone, who proved his qualities on the label´s debut "Symbol LP". Now it's time to present his first single Cursed Tape / Broke & Broken. It´s the haunting and unsettling vibes, the common name for the both tracks, but more evident in "Cursed Tape". The style of the track balanced on the edge of deep or minimal drum&bass and more broken shapes of genre like drumfunk. Complex, clean and sharp drum patterns cut through eerie cinematic atmospheres and deep basslines making the piece of music which tells the whole story on its own. Need to say that ´ s a horror one. The second side of the single "Broke & Broken" is haunted in different ways. Drum style moves the overall vibe more into autonomic and drumfunk fields. Those fit well with the deep sub bass layer and restless embracing atmosphere with progression going though length of the track. It's cold and grey out there.
