A very special show this month, as we welcome EVM128 and Matica – two artists who have been a huge inspiration for Blue Soup from day one.

Ahead of their headline set at Blue Soup, we jumped into the radio studio for a chat and a mix. We spoke to them about broken beat and Dance Regular, the label run by EVM128 that has brought us so much amazing music. 

In hour two, hold tight as EVM128 and Matica go b2b, throwing down everything from bruk classics to fresh cuts to dubplates that have never seen the light of day!

Big up all the artists featured and a massive thank you to EVM128 and Matica for making the trip to Notts and blessing the dance with us.

London-based Oblig's (@djoblig) sound is closely intertwined with the rich DNA of UK club culture. Bass, garage, grime and techno all influence his robust rhythms, whether he's going dark at 140 bpm or hypnotising with sleek techno. His label Obligated Records and regular shows on Rinse FM are extensions of that, as are his razor-sharp DJ sets across the world.

Hot on the heels of Volume 2 of his label's latest compilation, he's put together an hour mix that smudges the lines between his go-to genres. The selections are punchy and uptempo while twisting through mysterious late-night grime, kinetic club cuts and pneumatic bass workouts, all with a constant low-end pressure that keeps lips curled and heads nodding. 

Dekmantel Mix 494 - Oblig

Part of the reason for the inception of this label was to platform not only my own productions, but also to have a vehicle for collaborators / friends and music I hold dear to my heart.

After the success of 001 I am very proud to present Ruff Kutz 002 - Pugilist & Tamen - Source.

Me & Luke immediately connected shortly after both moving to Melbourne around a similar time around 8 or 9 years ago. We immediately found a good working flow together and I can confidently say that we have both been massively influential to each other creatively. Source is our 5th collaborative EP and 10th record together as a production duo and I feel this EP is some of our best work yet!

The title track 'Source' is an ode to the more atmospheric Jungle anthems of innovators Source Direct - with a slightly dubbed out feel, retro aesthetics and nostalgic sampling. It culminates in a euphoric and hypnotic track, which whilst heavily referencing it's inspirations manages to be somewhat modern sounding.

In true Ruff Kutz fashion, the 2nd track on the A side 'Fuchsia' comes with an unexpected tempo drop - whilst continuing with the theme of the deep & melancholic tone of Source, but slightly more introspective and still within a jungle framework. The 2-step rhythm and...  more

⚖️ Dich-T
A sonic split. “Dich-T” is the sound of contradiction—where light fractures into shadow, and tradition collides with tech. It pulses with dual energies: sacred and synthetic, intimate and industrial. Balkan motifs flicker like ancestral code beneath glitchy textures and distorted rhythms, creating a landscape that’s both haunted and hypermodern.
This track is a meditation on duality—of identity, emotion, and perception. It doesn’t resolve; it resists. “Dich-T” invites listeners into the tension, the beauty of being both and neither, caught between myth and machine.
Perfect for conceptual sets, immersive installations, or moments when ambiguity becomes the message.
