Konflict

Their most notable releases on this label include Roadblock, The Beckoning, the Maelstrom EP and their hit, Messiah, which in 2010 was named the number one most essential Drum and Bass track of that decade by the influential Knowledge Magazine.

[5] After a struggle over the release of Messiah,[6] when Kemal and Rob left Renegade Hardware in 2000, they abandoned the Konflict name as it was owned by and exclusively signed to the label.

Rob Data decided to quit in 2002 to return to his studies for reasons unknown, though it has been rumoured that it had to do with his brother passing away at a Rave party .

[citation needed] After the closing of Negative Recordings, Kemal started his own Cryptic Audio label, through which he released music until 2004.

Kemal produced much music alone as well as with his companion Rob, and he also co-operated with other artists such as Dom & Roland, Technical Itch, Paul Reset, Black Sun Empire, Sinthetix|Rob F and Impulse, and Dresden Codex.

In 2004 Kemal also decided to quit, having been quoted to be, "fed up with the current state of the Drum and Bass scene"[citation needed] and returned to his studies.
