More alternative dispatches from the land of song! 

Cwm Dancing is back in your ear holes this April with another sublime two hour showcase of incredible Welsh music. 

Mining deep from the nation’s rich underground and leftfield worlds of electronic music, hip-hop and all the exciting experimental pastures in between, Dave Columbo Jenkins joins disparate dancefloor dots as he shines the light on just how much unique, innovative and authentic music is coming out of Wales right now. 

Weaving between cult Celt classics and upfront unreleased exclusives, this show includes a crucial guestmix from Martyn Kinnear and two interview features about unique Welsh events happening this summer: Focus Wales and Love Trails. 

All this and so much more… Buckle up and get ready for another breath-taking Welsh road trip as we navigate the nation’s dramatic musical landscape once again.

OCTOSHED! ----->>>>>> ☀ weird Beats / DnB / Ambient / Breakbeats / Samples / > Noise / Field Recordings ☀ >>> ☀ Amiga / Linux Audio ☀ >>>>>>>> releasing new tracks [2023] along with tracks from the past few years [2016 ->], but maybe the odd nugget from a good few years ago [1996 -ish onwards].

To be honest, I'd given up on Soundcloud for a long while, but I've returned to it in 2022 and it seems to be much improved. Also, maybe I never quite appreciated it in the first place. It's one of those things that is too hard to comprehend the scale/size/quality of, so you need to spend time with it to get the most out of it. It's certainly great when you connect with someone new etc, or discover their music etc.

"Beāuteoüs Läñdsçäpe Sñïffers are we!"

Speaking, spitting truths
Forcing and forging, fearlessly forming phrases
Blood like lava
Bones like steel
A soul that feels
Translating and transforming nebulous notions into narrative
Surging and purging my gut, 
strut my motherfucking stuff

Nothing but the freshest in bass and beats. Mixes, interviews, releases, events, videos and anything else we choose to make. Cheese-free guarantee, we are here for the underground, the under-represented, the independents, the DIY and all the merry misfits in between.

"By collating angelic atmospheres, placid piano chords, and invigorating drum hits that elegantly encapsulate the beauty of the Liquid Drum & Bass sub-genre, clÜ has undeniably cemented his reputation as Cardiff’s master of the Liquid sound.

Hailing from the capital city of Wales, he first began to make waves in the scene through a string of bootlegs and original productions that have gone on to accumulate 100,000s of streams. This led clÜ to self-releasing his debut EP, ‘Liminal’, which featured fellow South Wales artists HANA2K and Wiz.

Now a member of Penarth-based record label Incurzion Audio’s collective, 2020 saw clÜ release three tracks on the label, with each finely crafted production amalgamating the serene qualities that have shaped his reputation in the south of Wales." - Charlie Cummings (Breakbeats & Basslines, UKF, Data Transmission & For The Producer)
