NA

The first Fade To Mind drop of 2016 comes from NA, who you'll know as one half of Nguzunguzu and a member of Future Brown.

Given his busy schedule with other projects, it's no surprise that this is only NA's second solo release for the label, coming three years after 'Xtreme Treble', which FTM heads will remember well.

That EP was a brilliant exercise in underground club music (well, what else) and so too is this latest venture, a five-tracker called 'Cellar Theme'. The record is thick with low-end, throwing all sorts into the blender (grime, DJ Nasty-esque techno, jungle, for instance) to come up with new, machinated results. "The tracks on 'Cellar Theme' are distinct chambers of a larger dungeon complex," NA told Fader. And, with the sleeve depicting a darkened tunnel in a state of serious disrepair, you know you're in for a full-throttle ride.

NA's already unveiled the title track and 'Definite Sentence' and now we have the premiere of 'Brass Claim', the EP's outright, do-backflips-in-the-club, banger. Trust.

'Cellar Theme' is out March 2 on Fade To Mind
