Joe McBride AKA Synkro has built up a hugely impressive catalogue of releases over the last few years. Via albums and singles for Apollo, Exit Records and his own Synkro Music imprint, the Manchester based producer and sound architect has amassed a dazzling archive of elaborate, emotive and intellectual soundscapes drawing in influences across a spectrum of bass culture and electronica.

On the ‘Information’ EP, it’s business as usual, as Synkro deploys four fresh and forward thinking tracks that slither across the genres with ease. From the frantic percussion and dubwise tones of title track ‘Information’ to the absorbing textures and crackling ambience of the beatless opener ‘Cycles’, the attention to detail and the depth of layered sonics across all four tracks afford the listener a truly mesmerising experience. The dusty and dark skank of ‘Signal’ is a real mood piece, whilst ‘Last Breath’ closes the EP drenched in sanguine sentiments.

🇫🇷
Pour bien débuter cette année 2023, Egregore Collective revient avec un second vinyle sur le label principal. Cette fois, nous plongeons au plus profond d’un océan d’accords réverbérés, de spirales d’échos et de tonalités apaisantes. Pour cette nouvelle incursion dans le domaine du vinyle, au titre approprié de “Tones and Echoes”, nous avons fait appel à 5 spécialistes de la dub musique sous ses formes les plus profondes.

C’est l’allemand Another Channel qui ouvre le bal. Avec des apparitions régulières sur des labels très respectés dans le genre tels que Moonshine Recordings ou encore Modern Hypnosis, il entame les choses en douceur avec une ballade dub apaisante.

Vient ensuite le viennois Mantsche, accompagné de son partenaire Bishop, avec un riddim plus profond, impactant et mélancolique, qui culmine en un second drop stepper qui vous fera skanker pour sûr.

La clôture de la face A est assurée par Masis, collaborateur récent d’Another Channel sur Moonshine Recordings. Il nous amène dans un registre plus profond et minimaliste avec un dub lo-fi ponctué de vocaux qui nous rappellent la destination finale de cette sortie ainsi que le titre du morceau : “Mount Zion”.

Sur la seconde face nous avons un roster 100% Toulousain, avec en premier l’énigmatique Stefan Dubs. Pilier de la scène illégale et underground de la ville rose avec le collectif Folklore, il décline une fois de plus sa production méditative, saturée, et parfois hypnotique, une ode aux fêtes dans le maquis.

On termine avec notre Stacktrace, qui entre deux bangers dancehall nous livre un track progressif, étincelant de shakers cliquetants et roulements de percussions, et comme à son habitude culminant en un second drop singulier avec une mélodie de bassline qui vous restera en tête.

Kicking off 2023, Egregore Collective is back with a second vinyl release on the main label. This time, we’re diving deep, spiraling down in a sea of reverberated chords and soothing noises. For this new foray in the physical realm, appropriately titled “Tones and Echoes”, we called upon 5 specialists of the deepest forms of dub music. 

Opening the record is Germany’s very own Another Channel. With regular appearances on respected labels of the genre such as Moonshine Recordings or Modern Hypnosis, he delivers a laid back dub ballad to kick things off smoothly.

Following up is Vienna based Mantsche, tagging along his mate Bishop with a deeper, stomping and more melancholic sounding riddim, that slowly builds up to a powerful stepper second drop that’s guaranteed to make you skank.

Closing the A side of the record is Masis, a previous collaborator of Another Channel on Moonshine Recordings. He takes us on a deeper tip with a dusty, minimalistic and lo-fi sounding dub punctuated by vocals chanting the name of the track as well as the final destination of this journey : “Mount Zion”.

On the other side, we have an all-Toulouse roster, starting with the enigmatic Stefan Dubs. Essential component of the illegal and underground scene here in Toulouse with the collective Folklore, he once again showcases his trademark meditative, saturated, and sometimes hypnotic aesthetic with another ode to forest raves in the maquis.

Rounding off the record is our own Stacktrace, taking a break from his dancehall bangers to go back to his roots and sign off on a highly progressive tune, sparkled with clicking shakers and drum rolls, and as always building into a very different second drop with a bassline melody that will stick to your head.

"I’ve been a fan of Djrum for some time since hearing some of his early mixes and having seen him play out in his effortlessly interesting and bold style many times with the same philosophy applied in his tunes I had always hoped to collab with him. We managed to pull “Ruins” out of the hat and I’ve been waiting a while to reveal this mad mixture of hardcore and lo fi slow-mo energy  to the world. It’s a perfect fit for this amazing compilation of music, which I can’t wait to share with you all this coming September!"
- Om Unit

Fresh from a series of artist-led 12"s, Om Unit's Cosmic Bridge label returns with 'Dark Matter', its first compilation since 2017's 'Cosmology Selections'. Collected in a triple vinyl LP / digital formats, the release offers a fresh snapshot of the exciting possibilities and experiments happening at the intersection of hip-hop, jungle and bass music; a hybrid sound the label has pioneered since its first release eight years ago. 

Across 14 tracks, 'Dark Matter' showcases Cosmic Bridge's growing global roster of artists: Moresounds, Danny Scrilla, Proc Fiskal, Margari's Kid, Oliver Yorke, J:Kenzo, TMSV, vromm, alongside new faces Samba and Rude Operator, and perennial favorites Es.tereo, Synkro and Djrum, the latter two in collaboration with label head Om Unit. 

Stylistically the compilation covers a broad range, and gives listeners the space to digest it all with a running time of 75 minutes. There are stripped-down, meditative rollers such as TMSV's flute-led 'Ominous', the bass hypnosis of Danny Scrilla's 'Sacred Waters', and Samba's snappy, booming remix of Om Unit's 'The Lake'. The timeless energy of jungle is channeled in Proc Fiskal's 'Death', a percussive, bouncy number, while Moresounds plays with filters (and your mind) as he refines a less-is-more take of classic themes on 'Watating'. J:Kenzo highlights the music's Jamaican roots on 'Dub For Bashenga'; a tough, pounding cut that goes straight for the chest and which finds its counterpoint in Rude Operator's 'Broken Sky'. 

For those who like more expansive, cinematic approaches there are epic waves of drums, slick editing and euphoria in Es.tereo's 'Floating Point' and Vromm's 'Decentralized', while Oliver Yorke's 'Treasured' and Margari's Kid's 'Challenger' squeeze soul from colder sound palettes and tight breakbeats. 

Om Unit's two collaborations, 'Reflections' with Synkro and 'Ruins' with Djrum, reflect the compilation's ambitions and breadth. The former is a delicate, uplifting roller that sets you up for the dark rumblings, freeform stylings and frenetic rhythms of the latter. The compilation ends with a track that arguably stands tall on its own, Crypticz's 'Chrysalis' feat. Amy Kisnorbo; an 11-minute epic that plays out like a love letter to the magic of breakbeat science, dub technology and human creativity. 

Dark Matter is a finely crafted statement of intent from Cosmic Bridge and Om Unit, shunning easy self-congratulation for a dive into the musical potentials and connections of a sound that is now an established part of the global bass music vocabulary.

Artwork: Simon Fowler

"Drifter Dub & Perception draw from a deep inner feeling that connects the four elements — earth / water / air / fire.
Everything is connected and surrounded by these four elements in varying ratios and levels of interaction. With these tracks, I wanted to elicit a mood that gives the feeling of being in nature with all these elements, dancing around a fire in the forest, getting lost in the kind of hypnotic rhythm and percussion that can put you in an ecstatic higher frequency state. The Forest Drive West remix of "Perception“ captures that all and completes the release perfectly."
