Manchester’s Mercy System debuts on Of Paradise with Procedures, a unique, intricate, boundary-blurring excursion through the heart of UK bass, dubstep, and garage. Comprised of four thought-provoking and immersive compositions, Procedures feels almost monolithic in its sound, evoking vivid images of space, rugged landscapes, and dimly lit venues.

This is intelligent, forward-thinking dance music. A set of alien transmissions, reinterpreted and reconstructed for the club, and the perfect new addition to the label’s ever-evolving library.

London-based duo D3U5E & Gav shatter the mould and incinerate the pieces with Origin Unknown, an otherworldly collection of hydro-dipped bass music and heat-treated breaks that occasionally ventures into experimental techno territory. 

Fully loaded with four bassbin bothering cuts, Origin Unknown is arguably the duo’s most accomplished work. It’s a midnight tour through each of London’s 32 boroughs, a glistening and explorative journey through thought-provoking and disruptive dance music, and an extended player that cuts razor-sharp through the noise.

After a 6-year hiatus, we welcome back the man like Hedchef to the label, serving up a delightful 4-course meal of electro, breaks and bass, complete with a tasty desert from prolific producer, Homemade Weapons.

Introducing the expertly titled: “Infinite Deferral of a Promised Hidden Sincerity”.

We kick off with a bang(er) titled “Dyatlov Full Spec”, an electronic stomper which weaves in Middle Eastern strings and Arabic vocal tones. Next up is “Rhizomatic Heartbreak”, a melodic, thoughtful, drum-centered track with aggressive low end, flavoured with a generous dash of techno seasoning in a palate of electronica. We move into “Hanging In The Balance”, which raises the tension and the temperature another notch; a masterpiece in sound design and progression. This track should come with a *DANGER* warning. Finally, we have “Where Body Meets Air We Are All Cadavers”, settling the tension and with spacious textures, but tasting no less spicy than the preceding dishes.

We are blessed to have Homemade Weapons on the remix of “Dyatlov Full Spec”. The original is completely inverted with his take, centering on breakcore style drum patterns characteristic of a Machinedrum set.

KINETIC ENERGY BOUNCING IN WAVES

London by-way-of New Zealand producer SDS MAX arrives on excess, armed with 4 imposing leftfield cuts, including a razor sharp collaboration with Bristol MC Grove.

No time for pleasantries, ‘Tun Up’ opens with Grove’s hypnotic vocals layered over rippling drums and high-end synths. The energy builds to a stomping hook while Grove holds court over the swelling bass, conducting and guiding you through. Track 2 ‘Sleep Walker’ resets the levels with dreamy melodies before SDS Max forces you awake with dubby bass and the crack of a snare.

Combining clap shots, metallic sonics and oscillating stop-start bass, ‘Two Holes in Your Umbro Jumper’ gives off the eerie buzz of a rave on an abandoned space station. Imagine walking the endless corridors, with ravers rattling around in zero-g and strobes lighting up the airlock. We’ve not reached the outer solar system yet but SDS MAX knows how to bring the vibe back to Earth. Closing track and EP namesake ‘Murky Water’ features a total onslaught of percussion, bass, and laser gun synths likely to turn the dance on its head and leave the crowd reeling.

With previous releases for the likes of Vief and Hefty Bruises, SDS MAX continues to push forward on this solo EP for excess.

INTHEPLACE

“Silent Symphony” is a way to revisit my Friday nights in the mid-’90s, glued to MTV, soaking in the magic of underground electronica. I wanted to capture that raw, analog vibe — the warmth, the imperfections, even that cassette tape flakiness that made every track feel alive.

This time, though, I went deeper — literally underwater. I layered in real recordings of whales and dolphins, letting their natural calls weave through the breaks and textures. It’s less about energy and more about atmosphere — like floating beneath the surface, weightless, in a world where sound feels infinite.
