Pendulum Recordings is a Drum and Bass collective based in Perth, Western Australia made up of Perth Dj/Producers Elhornet, Anscenic and Speed. Pendulum formed in early 2002 with a vision of pooling their production skills together to produce intelligent, yet hard and energetic dancefloor based music.

Leaning more towards the tech/neurofunk side of things, Pendulum soon captured attention with their tune 'Vault', which was quickly snapped up by Doc Scott for his 31 Records imprint. This track was the standout of the Winter Music Conference this year in Miami, getting heavy rotation from all major player such as Trace, Bailey, Andy C, Bad Company and Dieselboy. It has gone on to cause waves within the global drum and bass community and is still causing havok on dancefloors worldwide.

Pendulum have also signed several tunes to New Zealand label, Low Profile. June will see the release of 'Spiral' backed with 'Alterior Motive'. The track Spiral is also set to feature on the next AK1200 mix cd entitled 'At Close Range'.

Other releases forthcoming for Pendulum include a track on the 50th Anniversary release of UK label Renegade Hardware. 'Trail Of Sevens' is currently on high rotation throughout the world and is a regular feature on BBC's 1 Xtra. This release will feature 6 producers to commemorate the 50th release of Renegade Hardware. Following that, Pendulum will release their debut 12" with Renegade Hardware.

Other releases scheduled include a 12" for Timeless Recordings, Critical, Cyanide, Breakbeat Punk and a remix for Incite Records.
