On September 19th, 2025, NBC9 delivers his most ambitious project to date: State of Control. Ten tracks deep, the album captures a dark, cinematic journey through modern drum and bass with precision and intent. Known for progressive arrangements laced with neurofunk edges, NBC9 pushes his sound further here, balancing raw power with detailed production.

The tracklist sets a clear arc:

 

  1. Won’t Fall

  2. Paper Promises

  3. Divide & Conquer

  4. Control State

  5. Glass Bones

  6. Algorithmic Rage

  7. Levitate

  8. Blacksite

  9. Bankers Ghost

  10. Wire & Chain

 

Each piece builds into the next. From the unrelenting drive of “Won’t Fall,” through the heavy paranoia of “Paper Promises,” the record pulls listeners into a tension-filled narrative. “Algorithmic Rage” leans into jagged machine precision while “Levitate” offers contrast with weightless atmospherics. By the closing track “Wire & Chain,” NBC9 locks the energy down tight, ending the record in brutal finality.

State of Control is more than a collection of tracks. It is structured like a single uninterrupted story, reflecting themes of manipulation, surveillance, and systemic pressure. Yet inside its heaviness, moments of clarity shine, showing NBC9’s ability to create both impact and depth.

This release marks a milestone for Embassy 9 Recordings, reinforcing its place as a platform for uncompromising underground music. State of Control is a statement of intent from NBC9—dark, sharp, and unflinching.

Available worldwide on September 19th, 2025.
