Offering a bold combination of straight-ahead dancefloor steppers, and challenging breakbeat smashers, Machinist Music has been established to navigate the realm between the techstep & hardstep of dnb’s '95-'02 platinum era and the dnb of tomorrow.
Machinist Music 001 offers a wide array of music supported by and even wider range of Djs including Goldie, Bailey, Pendulum, Teebee, Nicky Blackmarket, Vapour, Raiden, Outrage, Mutt, Gremlinz & Bizzy B to name a few.

John Rolodex – ‘Connector'
Catchy steppin' business with classic a reese bassline and punchy minimal breaks. ‘Connector’ is rounded out with a repetitive vocal snip and peppered with twisted bass bits. Set to damage all dancefloors it touches and stand out in any set.
John Rolodex – ‘Box of Snakes’
Heavyweight warehouse hardstep with deep brooding atmospherics on this classic no-u-turn influenced monster. Dropping with rolling 808 subs, ‘Box of Snakes’ launches a sneak-attack with a grimy reese appearing suddenly. The second drop takes you further with classic break fills and a hoover fill to round out the vibe.
John Rolodex – ‘Keep on Truckin’’
Conga-infused breakbeats roll through the night on this reesey tearout affair from Canada’s master of darkness. This lashing roll-out is punctuated with a kick you feel in your chest and one of the dirtiest reese basslines around. A nasty piece of business to be sure. One for the soldiers.
Amenizm – ‘Behind The Mirror’
Classic breakbeats chopped together masterfully, reminiscent of Source Direct and Photek’s darker material. Each section of the tune tells its own story with a different set of breaks and fills. True to the moniker, the last section is a challenging amen affair. This deep breakbeat showcase begs the question ‘what’s behind the mirror?’
Amenizm feat. John Rolodex – ‘Amenizm pt. 2’
This classic breakbeat workout will be available as a bonus for people who purchase all four tracks of the digital release. ‘Amenizm Pt. 1’ is now legendary among the choppage crew. This version continues where pt. 1 one left off. Supported by many of the top figures in dnb from Bailey to Pendulum.
Watch for Machinist 002 featuring John Rolodex and Rene LaVice dropping very soon!
