CHRIS LIBERATOR & D.A.V.E. THE DRUMMER - Main Room

Recorded live at Observe Los Angeles, November 25, 2023

Live @ Observe: Los Angeles

Dustin Zahn x Truncate Live @ Observe Los Angeles (11/25/23)

Next up in our mix series, we're stopping by Love Dancin' for an extended 4 hour Friday night journey.

Join us as Mr Scruff & Charlie Dark land in charge of selections alongside the legendary MC Kwasi & Vanessa Freeman jump in on vocal duties.

While these four need no introduction, we couldn't help but give you a little whistle stop tour of these incredible artists:

>> Mr Scruff
DJ, Producer & Cartoonist As a DJ, Andy Carthy aka Mr. Scruff plays across the board, flitting between soul, funk, hip hop, jazz, reggae, latin, african, ska, disco, house, funk, breaks, soundtracks and loads more. As a producer he makes music that draws on these influences, with a large dose of cheek and good humour.

>> Charlie Dark
Raised in South London on a diet of pirate radio and warehouse parties, Charlie Dark has been spinning records and igniting dance floors since the early eighties. If you ever caught his Blacktronica Parties at the legendary Plastic People then you’ll know that 'All forms of music in one room the way it used to be’ has always been his motto and his record crates run deep to live by that mantra.

>> MC Kwasi
Black Swan Lane and The Chameleons member MC Kwasi has worked with more artists and DJs than you could imagine. Possibly most famous as Mr Scruff's right wing man, the loveable MC was the host of the seminal Friends & Family events and has been featured on tracks with the likes of Suns Of Arqa, The Messengers, Mark Rae, DJ Vadim and Beatphreak.

>> Vanessa Freeman
Last but not least Singer, songwriter and performer Vanessa Freeman. Vanessa's voice is an experience to behold, immediately distinctive, unadulterated quality and sheer joy. Her live performances are spiritual, recordings timeless and her songs sublime. Vanessa's musical career started early when she joined the local church chorus at the age of twelve and her impact has been felt by many notably for the huge contribution to the acid jazz revival in the nineties.

Together they bring one of our most outstanding collective performances this year. Sit back and relax or get up and dance.

A set that works in every way possible - this one's perfect for winding up or winding down.

Marking his first release on the London imprint, Inverse sees Pugilist expanding further into the shadowy, percussive terrain he has become known for, merging future-focused techno, lo-fi industrial, and the energy of early hardcore breaks through his own atmospheric lens. The EP captures both the toughness of the dancefloor and the subtle experimentation that runs through his catalogue.

A Scottish/Kiwi artist now based in Melbourne, Pugilist has built a reputation for stylistic range and rhythmic depth. His releases on Modern Hypnosis, Samurai Records, and 3024, along with the recent launch of his own imprint Ruff Kutz, demonstrate his ability to move across tempos and moods while maintaining a distinctive sonic identity. On the decks, he is celebrated for tightly curated sets, deep crates, and an array of unreleased dubs.

Speaking on joining the Best Intentions roster and the inspiration behind the project, Pugilist shares:
“Stoked to be joining the Best Intentions fam with 4 x retro rave rollas across the hardcore continuum, from minimalist Techno, to smoked out Electro, to krusty Hardcore and Breaks. This EP is a mix of styles which have informed my production style over the years. It is great to be putting out music with a shared vision for giving back for a greater cause. I have been a fan of the label since its inception so jumped at the chance to do a 12". I will be donating my share of profits to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre — a wonderful Melbourne-based charity for asylum seekers here in Naarm. They do wonderful work.” https://asrc.org.au/

The EP’s closing track, FKRY, a collaboration with POD, brings warped leads, stepping drum work, and old-school jungle tension into a modern, heavyweight techno frame.

Inverse will be released 12 December on digital download and white-label 12" vinyl via Best Intentions https://bestintentionsldn.bandcamp.com/

Proceeds of the EP will go to Asylum Seeker Resource Centre - a non profit organisation that provide a wide range of support services to people seeking asylum based in Australia.

Pugilist - Metaphysics

Doctor Jeep - 03 December 2025

Five years deep. A lot has shifted around us, but our drive to carve out space in the scene has stayed solid. When we kicked off FERMA, none of us imagined it would grow the way it did.

But here we are - 22 releases in, 5 of them physical, 10+ label nights, and collaborations with 40+ artists who share the same ethics, grit and aesthetics. It's been a roller-coaster of emotions and somehow it feels like the best parts are still ahead of us.

To mark our 5 years, we’re dropping a special anniversary compilation: 21 tracks from friends, allies, and artists who’ve been part of the journey. Expect a diverse, genre-blending release with tracks to cover various dancefloor occasions.

Celebrations peak on Saturday 27 December, where we take over our beloved Astron, together with two of our most respected artists: STENNY & NVST. A proper ceremony for the heads who’ve been with us – don’t sleep on this one.

As we shape the next chapter of FERMA, we want to salute everyone who has supported us, pushed us, challenged us, or simply believed in what we’re trying to build. You know who you are.

Special shoutouts:
•	ANFS - for mastering our sound since day 1
•	Emarty, Greta Haga & Dimitris Evagelou - for bringing our visuals to life and surviving our occasional nonsense asks
•	Giannis Kranas - for the constant support in everything we do
Here’s to the next 5 years - See you on December 27.
