In 2012 he got signed on the biggest german labels for Jump Up DnB, Phantom Dub Digital and Hooverbass Records.
For 2013 a few releases are already confirmed on the UK labels DoubleUV & Roll The Drums Recordings, expect some big bangers aswell as some deep tunes!

New Drum & Bass mix: Kongkast # 189 – feat. MIKAL (Metalheadz, SGN:LTD, Utopia Music, Horizons / UK)

This week on KONGKAST, we are delighted to bring to you this exclusive mix by one of the hottest producers in the scene – MIKAL (Metalheadz, SGN:LTD, Utopia Music, Horizons / UK).

The last couple of years have seen Mikal rise through the ranks, with an impressive back catalogue on labels such as Metalheadz, SGN:LTD, Utopia Music and Horizons to name a few. Mikal’s inclusion in 2011 on the prestigious Headz ‘Genesis EP’ series and his first single ‘Lifts Me Up’ for Goldie; has earned him the title as ‘one of the hottest producers around.’ Starting this year off with DnB star Break, ‘Just A Game’ is, as you would expect, of an impossibly high standard. With ‘Nervous.’ simultaneously making a solid statement across the pond for US label Force Recordings.

Mikal is currently working on a couple of releases before finalising his hotly anticipated album for Metalheadz. With continued support from the drum and bass, dubstep and radio elite Mikal’s talent is going to be hard to ignore.

Many thanks to MIKAL for taking time out and showing us the sound he represents!

More info about MIKAL:

With an impressive back catalogue on labels such as Metalheadz, SGN:LTD, Utopia Music and Horizons to name a few. Mikal’s inclusion in 2011 on the prestigious Headz ‘Genesis EP’ series and his first single ‘Lifts Me Up’ for Goldie; has earned him the title as ‘one of the hottest producers around.’ Starting this year off with DnB star Break, ‘Just A Game’ is, as you would expect, of an impossibly high standard. With ‘Nervous.’ simultaneously making a solid statement across the pond for US label Force Recordings.

The prolific producer cannot be defined by one genre or style. Whether it’s liquid, deeper, darker DnB or even dubstep, he has cemented his position across the board. Mikal’s 140bpm debut came when Goldie unexpectedly dropped ‘Higher Forces’ in his FabricLive 58 CD, catching the attention of Skream. Signing this and his next three tracks, ‘What You Know’, ‘Lost’ & ‘Sound Gonna Die‘ to his own imprint Disfigured Dubz.

Mikal is currently working on a couple of releases before finalising his hotly anticipated album for Metalheadz. No doubt there will be more, with the ‘What You Know EP’ further establishing his position as a versatile and incredibly capable producer. With 6 tracks released in the first 6 months of 2012 alone; several more penciled in for the latter half of the year and championed by the respective forefathers of DnB and dubstep, it seems Mikal can do no wrong. With continued support from the drum and bass, dubstep and radio elite Mikal’s talent is going to be hard to ignore.

New Drum & Bass mix: Kongkast # 188 – feat. ANADONIC (Perth / Australia / Hong Kong)

This week on KONGKAST, we head back East to our home town of Hong Kong, to check out who we think is one of the local up and coming deejays to watch – ANADONIC (Perth / Australia / Hong Kong).

Originally from Perth, Australia, Anadonic have been based in Hong Kong since 2010. With his love for all things music, he quickly fell in love with what Hong Kong had to offer in terms of underground electronic music scene, particularly the bass heavy nights put on by the likes of Kongkrete Bass and Heavy HongKong.

Not long after his endeavors into the Hong Kong deejay scene, Anadonic’s knowledge and passion for bass music was quickly noticed by the founder of HEAVY Hong Kong. Since middle of 2012, Anadonic found him self performing at different spectrum of Bass music, including Dubstep, Juke, Footwork and of course, Drum & Bass. In the short period of time, he is seen supporting the HEAVY Hong Kong local events as well as support for regional crew such as Bay Beats Club (India), as well as the likes of  Tes La Rok, Dub Phizix and Sabre.

Many thanks to ANADONIC for this rolling bit of Drum & Bass for Kongkast!
