Critical music is a UK Drum & Bass label releasing some of the freshest breaks and beats around. Created and nurtured by Kasra, the imprint has gone from strength to strength over recent years. 2009 has seen this continuing with massive releases such as the Break Remix of Spectrasoul's Alibi and Sabre's glorious Original Sin.

To usher the Autumn in, Critical Music are proud to announce the forthcoming release of their latest album project. Following on from the huge All Sounds Electric Series we bring a new concept. Eight tracks from the hottest producers in Drum and Bass right now, housed in a deluxe gatefold package and a double CD, again in deluxe packaging featuring the eight tracks from the vinyl on one disc and eleven brand new tracks on the second disc.

Each track on this album encapsulates all that is great and good about underground Drum and Bass. From the blissful beat workout of Break's "People Are Different" to the blistering tech infused funk of Spectrasoul's 'Wedgehead'. A storming selection of the cream of today's scene.

The CD package combines the vinyl tracks with a whole extra disc of fresh material. Dubstep champ Ramadanman comes with his own brand of stripped down dnb, Russian new kid Enei brings the future flavour and we are privy to the first ever solo production from label boss Kasra with his own track perception.

This is the Critical Sound...
