After a brief lockdown-prompted hiatus - Duncan Forbes and his new 49North imprint, return for their 3rd outing... a 4-track EP, made up of 2 DF originals and a remix of each. One from the universally revered UK House & Techno don, Mr G; and the other courtesy of Pépe - without doubt one of the most in-demand artists on the underground right now.

The neon-lit, analogue House of 'Bluer Than Blue' kicks things off - it's liquid melodies and propulsive rhythm reeling you right in from the get-go.

'The Next Step' meanwhile, is a vast and sonoros, breakbeat-driven beast - chocked full of otherwordly atmosphere and an alluring sense of the mystical.

Close pal and DF collaborator - Mr G, then takes the shimmering, multi-color heart of 'Bluer Than Blue' and distills it down into one super-tight, bare-bones, swing-loaded roller; topped off with a seductive whispered vocal, skating rides and a perfectly-poised low-end lead.

That is before Pépe wraps things up with his unique spin on 'The Next Step'; for which he keeps the signature mood more or less intact - but brings a more euphoric, wide-eyed optimism to proceedings, as well as an inspired ethereal-meets-junglist central character.

To celebrate Grid 2nd anniversary, we gathered together thirteen earth-shattering tracks from the bass scene’s most promising creators, all aimed to move you in the most primordial way. Evoking images of vast landscapes and deep underground catacombs.

This compilation takes the listener deep into the earth with twisted percussion workouts from the likes of Jabes, Piezo, Ronan and Sister Zo… and back into the light with serene compositions from E-unity, Tammo Hesselink and A Psychic Yes, whilst Jay Duncan, Basile3 y Clara!, Jonny From Space, Flaty, Seekersinternational, and blu-e join the dots with their genre-defying creations.

As was the case with Grid’s previous compilations 'Improvisations' and 'Da Capo Al Coda', the label once again puts its stamp on a moment in the underground by collecting together productions of the highest quality that push the boundaries but undeniably make you want to move.

PREMIERE: Jonny From Space - Never The Right Time [GRID Records]

Super excited to drop the 1st track 'Actuator' off our forthcoming EP - 'Edge of Blue' on the mighty Hotflush today.

Hotflush has been a label that we've both grown up with and admired from our first introduction into the electronic world back in 2011... So it feels pretty special to have been invited into the family by Scuba 

We hope you dig this single as much as we enjoyed making it, and there will be plenty more where that came from when the whole EP drops on the 18th August.

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.

PREMIERE: D3U5E & Gav - Tokyo Drainpipe

Date: 19/04/2024

According to the situation, there are times when you must rely on a person for something or other. If this is done repeatedly, it becomes a matter of importuning that person and can be rather rude. If there is something that must be done, it is better not to rely on others. (Yamamoto Tsunetomo - Hagakure: Book Of The Samurai)
