💿 CDLC018 – D-TOX | FINAL WEEK OF PRE-ORDER

It's been just over a week since the latest Compound Dubz release landed, and we're now entering the final week of the pre-order for the physical edition.

The Clear Limited Edition sold out almost immediately, a huge thank you to everyone who supported the release. ❤️

We now have just 9 Black 10" Lathe Cut copies remaining.

Each record is individually mastered and cut in-house on our VR T560 lathes, continuing our focus on producing small-run, handcrafted vinyl releases for artists, DJs and collectors.
Musically, D-Tox – CDLC018 delivers two heavyweight Amen rollers with classic pitched edits, sound clash flavours and deep rolling basslines, drawing clear inspiration from the unmistakable sound of 1995 jungle.

The digital release will remain available, but once the physical pre-order closes, there will be no more copies of the 10" available.

⬤ 9 Black 10" copies remaining

If you've been thinking about adding CDLC018 to your collection, this is the final week.

It’s so nice to receive feedback like this. ❤️

When you put so much time, care and attention into someone’s music, knowing they’ve genuinely enjoyed both the work and the experience means a lot.

A huge thank you to Joe and the Brides crew for the kind words, for trusting Compound Audio with another release, and for continuing to come back to us.

Really appreciated. 🙏

The flip side of CDLC018 from D-Tox is just as dangerous...

Built for those who like their beats deep, rolling and packed with energy, this one's ready to do the damage.

Today reminded me why I became a mastering engineer.

People often ask...

"What gear do you use?"

The truth is...
That's usually the least interesting part of mastering.

Today I finished mastering an album that reminded me of something I'd forgotten.

We don't master songs.
We master stories.

Every EQ move...
Every compressor adjustment...
Every decision is there for one reason.

Not to impress another engineer.
Not to chase a loudness target.
But to ask one question...

Does this make me feel more connected to the music?

If the answer is no...
We don't do it.

Not going to lie... this one made me smile. 😊Every 5⭐ review means the world, but receiving one from the team at Viper R...
