Batu - Eraser / Stairwells [Cold Recordings]

Thought I'd upload my Essential Mix from earlier this year for your listening pleasure now it's not available on the BBC. 

This is my original recording with no stings and no Pete Tong talking(sadly). 

It was such an honour to contribute to this mix series, i'd rate it up there as one of the biggest achievements i've had as a DJ. Thanks to everyone who listened and wrote me nice messages about it <3

BBC Radio One - Essential Mix

Batu returns to his very own Timedance imprint with the long awaited follow-up to 2019’s False Reeds, this time with some of his hardest tracks to date.

Here he expands his aptitude for bass-heavy grooves, harmoniously bringing it together with FWD drum-craze and deep techno kinetics.

Meticulously crafted for rave efficiency, the EP shines with a dazzling sense of nuance, enriched by frisky and intoxicating sound design.

Batu - Spooked / Clarity [Dismantled] [DnuoS YtiviL]

Batu - Solace

Building on the promise of nearly 10 years testing limits within club music, Batu presents his debut album Opal. Experimentation is a well-established facet of Omar McCutcheon’s identity within the leftfield techno zeitgeist, but more than ever on Opal he seizes the opportunity to incorporate ideas beyond dancefloor impetus into his animated, forward-leaning sound. 

Out on Timedance on the 29th of April 2022

here's a recording of my set from The White Hotel in Manchester, Feb 2018 - i was closing from 5-7am after a bumpy Lena Willikens set. it was my 2nd gig of the night and my 4th in 3 days, there's a few sketchy transitions but the vibe was great so who cares.

it's definitely pretty peak time, with a few twists and turns in there too - also loads of fresh music which you might hear more of later in the year...!
