Great breaks, gated pads, string melodies, and chopped acoustic guitars bring us a very BT-esque track. This is from Zircon's original soundtrack to the upcoming XBLA Community Game, "Fittest."

What's up, folks? I just wanted to write a quick post letting those who use Twitter to follow people that Protagonist and most of the artists here do the twitter thing and you should follow us! Follow @sgxmusic for official updates on both updates here at Protagonist and my(sgx) music. @HyBound, @audixmusic, and @zirconst are all self-explanatory! Get on the Twitter bandwagon!

MASS MEDIA CONSTANT is a 21st century drum n' bass odyssey for the networked generation. By drawing influence from such sources as LTJ Bukem, Photek, BT, Pendulum, and The Sims, zircon ensures no two tracks sound alike. His signature electro-organic style, developed over the course of four previous breakbeat and trance albums, has morphed and evolved with the fast tempos and scintillating colors found throughout this album. As you listen, imagine a scene conceived by the artist during the album's creation - walking through a super-stylized version of Times Square at midnight on a Saturday, looking at all the billboards, bathing in neon light, hearing music coming from bars and restaurants, and watching cars and buses fly by.

Spooky, evil drum and bass from Mr. Zircon will invade your earholes.

I'm happy to announce that Zircon has joined us here at Protagonist and is bringing us his new EP, "Mass Media Constant." Ten tracks and 33 minutes long, Zircon jumps into a largely DnB style with panache and technical excellence. Mass Media Constant is coming February 10th, available as digital download only in FLAC, or high quality VBR mp3 formats, for $6.99. Check out below for streaming previews!

Also, we'll be releasing another free track from Zircon on Feb 10th, day of the release!

To be available on Zircon's upcoming EP, "Mass Media Constant", here is Fiberoptics! Frantic dnb breaks, distorted growling bass, and syncopated synths come together in a sparkling electronic composite.
