We’re joined by our friend Grace, an excellent selector with dope taste who was going to play our party on March 28th. We’ve had to postpone that for obvious reasons but consider this a condensed version of what would have been a sick night :)

Bside Incoming: Contours

We’re touching back down in the UK for our 65th episode! After our recent adventure to Seoul and Amsterdam this weeks episode is brought to you by Manchester based DJ, producer, and drummer: Contours.

“Contours’ sound explores the spaces, rhythms and textures that sit between House, Jazz, Afro-Beat, Electronica and Hip-Hop”. When he’s not laying down irrisistable grooves for the North-West and London alike, he’s tucked away in his studio producing nuggets of electronic gold. Releasing his music on past guests Rhythm Section, Shall Not Fade, and this little gem of afro ambiance, the B2 of his ‘Cosmic Echoes’ EP on ANMA records:

His stature as an accomplished percussionist and selector really bursting through in his colourful Bside mixtape:
The first half an hour packed full of global jazz that is clearly a major influence of his, before diving into the more electronic elements replicated in his own productions, a little dip into dub, and a thorough focus on rolling percussive grooves throughout.

Magie Noire - Our Music #114

Bside podcasts

DJ's showcase and speak a little about their favourite tracks from the B-side of their records.

We endeavour to broadcast the best of the B-side:
a bi-weekly invitation into the impressive record collections of some of our favourite selectors.
An exploration into the the back-catalogues, the deepest depths, the darkest crevices of their collections. Returning with the spoils of this venture: their most cherished records and hidden gems, from the go-to club weapons to the rarely heard home-listening records, and everything in between.

Music is for sharing.

'By the early sixties, the song on the A-side was the 'hit' song that the record company wanted radio stations to play. The B-side would contain less radio friendly and less popular tracks. In our eyes the B-side is a true reflection of the producers taste in music, there is more personality on that side of the record'.
