or maybe its just too much caffeine in me talking rn

We close 2021 with our annual Scuffed Presents compilation, presenting four new artists to look ahead to in 2022.

The release kicks off with Moscow producer @rnbwssound, who has been building a name for himself with recent appearances on labels like Nehza, Kouncil Cuts, and Cyberjit. ‘Till I Get Enough’ is a pounding, breaks-led track based around an addictive vocal, acting as a statement of intent for the rest of the compilation.

Rnbws - Till I Get Enough

Leeds-based producer Bertie debuts on Noire State with a two-track release exploring weighty bass and rolling breakbeats.

Manchester collective Noire State was founded in early 2020 primarily as a party series, but with the COVID pandemic putting the brakes on events across the world, they quickly pivoted to starting a label and mix series, showcasing the cutting edge of UK underground club music.
Having so far put out releases from Oldboy and Indent, Noire State’s third release comes from newcomer Bertie, who has been picking up momentum with radio plays on BBC Music Introducing, Rinse, Balamii and SWU FM.

Title track ‘Tinyard’ shows the versatility of Bertie’s productions with a harder-edged approach aimed squarely at the dancefloor.

Tinyard

PREMIERE: Bertie - Tinyard [Noire State]

Two aspects of Maison Fauna’s world collide on this one, as Bristol’s K-65 energetically remixes Durham-based Chainletter’s “Lyric St.” Originally a techno exploration, K-65’s take is an urgent, pressing electro banger, complete with unexpected timbral rides, whirling sound effects, and teasing builds fit for any dance-floor. As a prolific producer delving into a wide variety of genres, including breaks, drum and bass, and electro, K-65 has begun to make waves as an eclectic, well-rounded producer in the UK underground. With prior releases on Top Drawer Digital, Slippery Sounds, CORE ltd., Belters mag, Seagrave, Taipan Trax, Maison Fauna, and Over and Out, K-65’s accolades are skyrocketing almost as quickly as his discography. We couldn’t be more stoked to have a track of his back on the buffet line. Eat your heart out!

Brighton-via-London duo Heritage return to Scuffed Recordings with brand new garage track ‘Chrome’, out 11th February 2022 on the Scuffed Bits singles series.

Heritage last appeared on Scuffed in 2020 with their ‘Revelation’ EP, and the title track has since become one of the defining tracks from the UK label. The EP saw wide-reaching support from the likes of Oneman, SHERELLE, Anz, and Moxie, and showed Heritage’s diverse production chops from upbeat breaks to moody, heads-down UK bass.

Now making their return to Scuffed, Heritage present ‘Chrome’, which leans heavily on the duo’s UK garage influences with a swung groove, pulsing bass, and undulating synths.

Scuffed Bits started in January 2022 as an outlet for digital-only singles, launching with ‘Purple Hilt’ from 95Bones and Scuffed co-founder Wager. Scuffed Bits will run alongside the main Scuffed Recordings schedule with new releases each month from artists on the Scuffed roster as well as friends of the label.

‘Chrome’ will be released on Scuffed on all digital platforms on 11th February 2022.

Matteo Ciccarone, better known as Sickarone, is a producer from Turin with a sound shaped by Jungle, Garage, Footwork, and everything in between. His works are entirely made on his hardware setup: an old MPC sequencing various drum machines and synths, allowing him to express his musical ideas in the most direct way possible. His productions are full of nostalgic, properly chopped breaks, tons of pitched and hypnotic vocals and deep subs.

In a blizzard of breakbeats, b-lines and acid hooks, Denham Audio have brought new urgency and vitality to the modern rave scene. The sound they’re pushing is rooted in the legacy of UK Hardcore, but those foundational sounds and styles are given a thorough spruce up, feeding into the buoyant areas of exploration happening between 140 and 160 BPM. Releases have been coming thick and fast, from early outings on Nineteen Ninety Four and Artifice through to a blistering run on WNCL, Frendzone! (alongside Violet), Lobster Theremin, Sneaker Social Club and more. Across these 12”s you can hear every shred of influence spilling out – from the upfront Hardcore and Jungle through to Hip-Hop and Reggae, and beyond the confines of music into Sci-fi and Anime.

EGG TART EDITS Volume II

15th May 2022 - “Timeless Art, Touching The Heart”

The monthly hike with Virgil always concludes with a visit to 點心餅家 - Touch Of The Heart Bakery. A morning connecting with nature and reminiscing about Hong Kong always leads us to this legendary institution. Established in 1922, by a family of immigrants from Hong Kong. This place never fails to fascinate me on multiple fronts every single time I go. Whether it is the sizzling tray of egg tarts coming straight out of the oven, seeing the bakers zoned in, creating magic or its ability to transport me spiritually to Hong Kong. Something I don’t think I can comprehend myself.

So to celebrate 100 Years of Touch Of The Heart Bakery. We have curated this special project with some mega talented people. Hopefully this reflecting 4 Generations, dedication to the craft. The craft of literally touching hearts and creating smiles. Also was super to see Florence, a long time friend and next in line to take over at the bakery. Both being in the same year class at Chinese School decades ago, sharing a love for Marvin Gaye, Ryo Fukui and of course edits. She left me with some wonderful words by her late grandfather (Heard this from Jimmy Iovine too!) - “Give yourself time, to make something that will last forever. Egg Tart. A Timeless Art”

Yours, DiMarco.

San Francisco based DJ and bass extraordinaire Farsight knows how to make an entrance, first bursting onto the scene with his adventurous and daring EP ‘Wisdom’ back in 2016. At the time Farsight's music sounded like it had been beamed from another planet and has played an important role in the cross-pollination of genres we’ve seen in recent years. Farsight has gone on to release on Scuffed Recordings, Maloca and Noire State, remaining firmly fixed on the future of club music. Now his blend of trap, jersey club, reggaeton and dancehall makes its way across the Atlantic with six mind-sizzling cuts for Brakes ‘N’ Pieces vol. 23.

Opening track ‘Triangulation’ combines rolling drums with party-starting vocal samples and steady whistles, letting listeners know we’re really off! ‘Mr Right’ then enters the fray with throbbing subs, ravey stabs and a vocal that sits halfway between fun and outright menacing. The A side comes to a close with ‘Leaving Las Vegas’ a dubstep infused cut of choppy breaks and wide-eyed melodies. A masterclass in raising tension, this track will shut down any club, please use wisely.

‘Lesser Light’ shows Farsight’s love for bass exploration; it’s looming shadow pressing amongst some of the darkest corners of electronic. A unique brand of grime infused techno. ‘Water Margin’ delves even further, adopting a more measured pace for those heads down moments. The record comes to a close with ‘Fulminous Edge’ and is a reflection of the artist’s darkest material. The drums still have a familiar spring in their step but the track’s melodic bassline is mesmerizing; resulting in a melancholy trance that deserves a second play.
