In advance of Mainger’s May 22nd release of the Breate EP, here’s a great mix of much of Mainger’s new music including several unreleased bits.
 |
Simon/Off – Exit Space – HAR130a |
| Simon/Off – Eight Times Up – HAR130b |
|
| Simon/Off – Puppy Dub – HAR130c |
Veteran Austrian producer Simon/Off’s Exit Space EP is Haunted Audio’s 30th release. Exit Space’s more euphoric vibe contrasts with Puppy Dub’s darker halfstep; breakbeats give the nod to breaks and jungle influences. Eight Time Up’s funky/broken beat interpretation charts a new course with its high-speed juke influences and glitchy sounds in a concentrated beat/rhythm joint.
Juno Downloads exclusive 3/5/12, Wide release 3/19/12
Digging the minimalistic stylings! [Exit Space (Original Mix)] – Stereo Stormtrooper (SST)
Solid Ep all around, rolling tracks with some lovely sounds. – Mirror State
Top quality unique Simon/Off beats !!! 8/10 – Luthor
Eight Times Up is a very good tune! 8/10 – MetalBox Products
Another wicked one from the Simon/Off as each’n'every!!! When it comes to the most abstract and out-of-this-space-beatz, he’s the man! Defo supporting this!
8/10 – CixxxJ/Bassponmi
Eight Times Up is the one! Whole EP is great, will be playing these. 8/10 – Gary P/Elevater Action/Kursed Recordings
Loving the bounciness of Exit Space! The delicate instrumentals balance out the funky breaks nicely and doesn’t overpower the overall feel of the tune.
8/10 – DJ Winter
Very good release – will definitely be supporting.- Blind Prophet
Really diggin Exit Space and Eight Times up!10/10 – Akrophobia
Really into Puppy Dub ! Nice and sparse. – Distal
Great feel good vibes! – Christian Hoffman/Toronto Is Broken
Eight times up is my pick of the bunch. Nice bounce and groove to it. Add some variation to a set. Nice.- Adam/Breakonomics
Three very original tracks, hard to pick a favourite but think it has to be Eight Times Up. Will be supporting. 8/10 – Mike Hindle/Immersed Audio Blog
Simon/Off always delivers and the Exit Space EP keeps with his high standard of original music production! All of the tracks in the EP are full of unique glitchy stabs under a big bass umbrella. This vibe will be in rotation for sure!
8/10 – DGGZ/Vibes Refresh Session/Sub.fm
Groovy ! – BunZer0
Out now in wide release including Beatport and Itunes.

| Toronto Is Broken – Dance of the Night – HAR129a |
| Toronto Is Broken – I Can’t Be Real – HAR129b |
Nice to hear some deeper stuff doing well here – enjoyed both tracks. – DFRNT
Dance of the night is just magic. Wow. 8/10 – Adam/Breakonomics
Excellent work on both of these. Thanks! 8/10 – DJ Dylan Kennedy
Great stuff from Toronto Is Broken, Dance of The Night is a wonderfully deep tune, a mellow relaxing vibe. I Can’t Be Real keeps it very real with a sweet tune that stays honest to the depth of the release. 9/10 – GDM/Vibes Refresh Session
Great tracks as usual from one of the most consistent up and coming producers. 9/10 – Tony Parker, DTSFNEYMCCT
Both tunes are lovely! Dance of the Night is the perfect balance of moody & deep while I Can’t Be Real brings the tempo up a bit while maintaining the depth with great effects on the vocal refrain…nice one! 9/10 – DJ Winter/Testpress Digital/NYC
“I Can’t Be Real” is a nice driving progressive sounding tune, very ethereal. 9/10 – Rasputan
Dance of the Night – the atmosphere hits deep! one of my favorite releases by Haunted Audio to date. I Can’t Be Real – love the beat, the rhythm really gets me – 10/10~ Poor Ragged Rascal/Black Market Funk

here at his blog BunZer0.blogspot.com
Estonia’s z6z and Mr. V bring some fresh sounds with “Stay On The Clouds”, a tribal roller boarding on progressive house; and z6z’s “Exhale The Signals” is a haunting minimal bassmusic affair.. Beatport exclusive 11/7/11, Wide release 11/21/11
| z6z – Stay On The Clouds (with Mr. V)-HAR128a |
| z6z – Exhale the Signals – HAR128b |
More great releases from Haunted! 10/10 – MetalBox Products/Sub.FM
Exhale the signals is a beautifully dark excursion into atmosphere and bass. Brilliant. 8/10 – Adam/Breakonomics Radio
Huge release, full support, love the deep atmospheric vibes. 9/10 – Mike Hindle/Immersed Audio Blog
Tight sounds and deep vibe ! Feelin’ this! 8/10 – BunZer0
Exhale the Signals is beautifully crafted dubstep with a nod to the genre’s heyday. dark, sparse, spacious and brooding. 8/10. – Janner
Both tunes are really good, loving the dark/deep vibes. Great meditative music – supporting! Blind Prophet
z6z’s release of Exhale The Signals reminds us why we first enjoyed dubstep before its commercialization. Such a heavy vibe with it’s perfectly spaced out elements… this is a banger! 8/10. DGGZ/Vibes Refresh Session/Sub.fm
Stay On The Clouds is very progressive and cerebral, love the airy textures. 8/10 – Rasputan
The bright, hopeful ambient “Stay On The Clouds” is a stark contrast to the dark and sparse “Exhale The Signals.” “Stay On The Clouds” is my pick for best mix, with its emotional ambient layering of sound and soft chanting. 8/10 – SomeJerk/PatternAwareness/Digital Felon
..lovely vibes on this one! both tracks are great! 8/10. – DFRNT
Mutoid Crabs with Rocket Launchers features Janner’s signature garage beats coupled with wonky melodies and big bassline and BunZer0′s darker dubstep remix. Janner’s Arrakis wand BunZer0′s Rebellion with epic melody and bass on the deeper end of the dubstep spectrum round out this 4-track EP. Beatport exclusive 10/5/11, Wide release 10/19/11
Janner – Mutant Crabs with Rocket Launchers – HAR 126a
Janner – Mutant Crabs with Rocket Launchers (BunZer0 Remix) – HAR 126b
Janner – Arrakis – HAR 126c
BunZer0 – Rebellion – HAR 126d
“A masterpiece, BunZer0′s Rebellion is an engrossing track from start to finish, the man produces yet another top class tune. In addition to this a BunZer0 remix of Janner’s wonderfully named “Mutoid Crabs with Rocket Launchers” plus the original, PLUS Janner’s Arrakis completes a release of music that you can feel flowing through your veins! Wonderful stuff.
9/10″ – GDM, Vibes Refresh Session/Sub.fm
“Love the oldschool vibes on the janner tunes !!” – Simon/Off
“sick. super sick (release)” – Ryan Twoway Morejon, WWU02
“No denying the amazing sound from combining two bass heavy weights like Janner and BunZer0. Ace aggressive bass work here!! 9/10.” – DGGZ/Vibes Refresh Session/Sub.fm
“Janner kills it again, BunZer0 tight work on the remix. 8/10 ” – Rasputan
“Querky Sounds!” – Joe/Hush House blog
“BunZer0′s “Rebellion” stands out to me, really great track.” – Blind Prophet
“Loving the orig of Mutoid Crabs, but Arrakis original mix is my pick of the bunch. Melodic old skool flavour with some lovely low end and nice drum programming. Janner and haunted audio continue to go from strength to strength.” – Adam/Breakonomics
“‘Mutoid’ is a bit of a video game influence rave smasher with the infamous hiphop/jungle/rave Apache break lacing the 8bit funk, backed by the straight ahead breaks roller ‘Arrakis.’ BunZer0′s remix of ‘Mutoid’” beckons to the days of dubstep gone by, with dubby bassline and sparse landscape. ‘Rebellion’ from BunZer0 also seems to call to the past, with its rave stabs and steppy tribal rhythm. 8/10″ – SomeJerk
“I like the [Janner] garage mixes a great deal!” – MetalBox Products/Sub.fm
“Very distinctive beats from Bunzer0 & Janner, Arrakis is the one for me 
8/10 ” – Luthor
“Great release here. Very diverse and tons of vibes. Great work!! 9/10″ – Methodus
“Really feeling ‘Mutant Crabs With Rocket launchers’ and Arrakis, will be supporting both. 8/10″ – Mike Hindle/Immersed Audio Blog
“Both are great tracks, weighty, but not too “silly” with the wobble or synths.” – DFRNT
