Hi guys! Gotta mention this. It is super good material for deep dnb & breakbeat headz, as always…
The new Fanu album, “Polar“, is out now. It’s largely a return to the D&B roots with a little bit of modern spice thrown into the mix.
Deep, dark, heavy, melancholic – just like the Scandinavian winter climate.
Heard some cool news yesterday. The Finnish dnb-legend Fanu has started a new alias FatGyver to express his hiphop-styled feelings with lots of 90’s attitude. Really looking forward to hearing his stuff. Check in more detail at his blog. The first mixtape is available at soundcloud, listen below or download the mix.

Breaks, unique sounds, atmospheric percussions and melodies that give you goosebumps? If this sounds perfect, this weeks Free Track of The Week is for you. Proudly presenting:
Shogun (remix) by Fanu Fanu is, without doubts, one of the most successful Finnish drum’n’bass & downtempo artists with a large scale of fans around the world. Fanu is a busy producer & DJ who spins vinyls around the world, and he has releases on quite a few labels: Subtitles, Commercial Suicide, Offshore, Ohm Resistance / Columbia, Breakin’, Warm Communications, Subtle Audio, Subvert Central, Thermal, Forestry Service , LoCuts, Soothsayer, 13 Music, Pauze, Darkestral, Pinecone Moonshine, Bonafide, Cyberset, and now he’s concentrating on his own label, Lightless Recordings.
Personally, what I’ve always enjoyed most in Fanu’s production, is his unique style to chop the breaks, and his skills with the drums in general. Also, the atmospheres in both his downtempo and drum’n’bass production are very much worth mentioning. Check out the cool reverbs on the percussions of this Shogun remix, and you’ll know what I’m talking about! Amazing stuff, for real.
FANU REMIXES MINERAL, FORTHCOMING ON LIGHTLESS DIGITAL
Fanu has been working on a remix of my track “Jupiter” during the last weeks, and the remix is about to get finished. I’ve heard previews, and I gotta tell it is a DOPE remix! Also, I’m more than happy to announce that the it will be released later on Lightless Digital with another track by myself, Twisted Dream. Expect some serious amen rudeboy business in this release!
Prepare your coffees and adjust the bass to the max, as this week’s Free Track is about to lift you into some serious Drum’n’bass heaven. The free track of the week, “Sight of Vision“, is done by Defence, a really talented producer/DJ/promoter duo from Finland. The rolling dancefloorbeats accompanied with a twisted deep bassline make this track very much worth downloading. Check out this amazing track by Defence!
I’m also proud to present the fresh Defence remix of my track “Mineral – One Still Remains“. I’m really loving the vibes in this remix, thanks a lot Defence crew! 🙂 Check the clip of the remix:
