SubVersion Stop 314: 2025 End Of Year Charts
Another year, a cultural kaleidoscope. Email me your charts for inclusion in the blog post. Massive thank yous to those supporting me and fellow subverts this year, I couldn't have got this far without you. Whatever you do, have a safe holiday, and don't work too hard. Cheers ~ MuttleySV. [] Netlabel of my year: Spheredelic. This internet Mp3 320kbps file download 'netlabel' publishes ambient, avant garde and experimental sound design - looking in the space between, it can 'take you away to compositionally new ways in auditory soundscapes and aesthetic compositions'. The website offers previews through its built in playback device, combined with easily found download links in the pages for each individual release. The newest release is Rikardvs with the EP 'Pluie'.

[]'Every time I wake I've got a war in my mind. I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride. I never truly thought that I would have to decide, to play someone's game, or live my own life, but now I do. I live things with you. Out of the black. And into the blue'. []
~ Lana Del Rey 'Get Free', Transmission Impossible 3CD
[] Recipe of my year: difficult to choose, but Nepalese Rezala, Homemade Tzatziki, and Fried Egg Meen Moilee with spices and herbs and sea salt were some of my less dreadful creations.[] Favourite gig: I only went to one gig this year, cheers to family and friends for the tip off 'Inside Number 9' was a great production, featuring Reece Shearsmith from The League Of Gentlemen. [] Favourite random moment: separating reality from the alien automata concept. [] ...to be continued

The High And Mighty
Spotify Premium Stream Releases
[]
Went to Truck Witney on a Sunday afternoon just outside of Christmas, picking up a double vinyl copy of The High And Mighty on wax. According to the track credits of some of these digital streams, which merge techno with instrumental hiphop effortlessly, the group have managed to rein in big hiphop names like Mad Skillz, The Alchemist, and the infamous Eminem. Their newest LP on Spotify is 'Sound Of Market', released 6th June 2025, their newest EP being 'The Rose Bowl', a 28th March 2025 collaboration between The High And Mighty, The Alchemist, and Your Old Droog. 'Home Field Advantage Instrumentals' is a 2x12' of a 1999 record, raps removed, showcasing straightfoward sonics.

SubVersion Stop 311: Dom And Roland Spotlight Mix
To coincide with the February 2026 'Dom And Friends' EP [Bandcamp DL and Void Vinyl Artwork Vinyl], featuring Mando, Kemal, Gridlok, Presha, continuing the Dom And Roland Spotlight Mix trend by www.dogsonacid member BassCast095 - with no tracks from that August 8th, 2024 mix, in this mix - and after the success of the 2003 to 2025 Vector Burn [Warm Communications, Covert Operations, Beta, Bio-Shield et al labels] Spotlight Mix, DJ Muttley is currently putting together a Dom And Roland Spotlight Mix for 2025 to 2026. Get your track requests in! Most of the tracks featured are rarities and primarily released 1997 and after. These tracks by Dom [and his Roland sampler] take a detour from the Nasty Habits 'Shadow Boxing' techstep track, that established a dance floor dnb sound from the year 1997 onwards. Current selections: 'Seed' by Dom & Kemal, 'Thunder' [from the 1990s LP 'Industry'], 'Soundwall VIP' mix [Artwork vinyl], 'Paradrenasite' [featuring Hive], 'Moulin Rouge [Karl K, Kaos & Dieselboy Mix]', 'Rhino [featuring Skynet]' [three tracks from the Dom & Roland LP 'Chronology'], 'Moodswings [featuring Gridlok]', 'Chaos Theory [featuring Hive], 'Ritual' [with Sketch], '45 Special' [three tracks on Dom & Roland Productions, Dom's own vinyl label, released 2005 and after] 'Killa Bullet' ['the bullet in the sugar killed him' vocal], [Hive Remaster], Dom & DJ Crystl [onomateopeaic [it sounds like what it is] mix samples also with those featured on the 'Can't Punish Me and 'Sky Spirits' Promo CD on the Moving Shadow label, and there may be some Outlook [Dom 1990s tech step alias, see 'New York', in The Dastardly Diaries Chapter 2], sounds as well. 'Reimagination EP' and 'Dedication', new records on Individual Recordings label, on Bandcamp in 2025, including the legendary 'Imagination VIP Mix', may also feature. From 'Code Of The Streets DVD' drum n bass from 2003 to 2025, Dom And Roland talks through some of his production techniques on 'Moodswings [featuring Gridlok]', featured in a www.dogsonacid Promotional Mix, mixed by DBridge, in 2005, where he says 'You have to f**k with a sound to make it yours', with many dnb heads gaining interest in dnb after the millenium, DJ Muttley hopes to put the amazing sounds of Dom [and his Roland] into a 2025 to 2026 Spotlight Mix for the heads, and the heads new to the drum n bass scene in the future. When the mix set is complete, I edit the post with the track list. Cheers ~ MuttleySV
