'Maintaining My Peace' is a collaboration with UK rapper/producer Novelist and US soulful house legend Stephanie Cooke—two artists we’ve long admired. Novelist was first introduced to our music through his mum, and after we reached out, he sent us a voice note from LA saying he was keen to link up as soon as he got back to London. You’ll hear that exact message at the very start of the track—a nod to the moment this journey began.
Not long after, Nov came by our studio and spent hours with Beans, deep in conversation about production techniques, life, and everything in between. That genuine exchange of energy and ideas directly influenced and shaped the lyrics Nov wrote that day—raw, reflective and grounded.
The track’s production pays homage to classic West Coast rap—we wanted that raw, laid-back, soulful feel. Once again, we brought in the talents of Immanuel Simelane on bass and Alex Cosmo Blake on guitar to help us capture that authentic G-funk texture. From the jump, it was clear the instrumental needed a voice like Nov’s and he floated over it effortlessly.
There was something missing however—we needed a hook and we knew exactly who we had in mind. After a long search, we finally managed to get in touch with one of our all-time favourite soulful house vocalists, Stephanie Cooke. To our surprise and excitement, she was totally down to be part of it. Her vocals brought exactly the warmth and emotion the track needed—she was the cherry on top.
The result is Maintaining My Peace, a smooth, heads down, introspective track that blends soul, self-reflection and that unmistakable West Coast influence.

Bud Dub is a warm, vapor-soft chill-dub album built entirely on palindromes — in the titles, in the musical structures, and in the production design. Every track mirrors itself in some way: basslines that move outward then return inward, stereo patterns that flip left and right, chords that rise and fall in symmetrical arcs, and mid-track “hinge moments” where motifs reverse or fold back on themselves.
The result is a deeply relaxed, slow-burn dub experience that feels like drifting smoke loops in a quiet living room — warm sub-bass, soft skank guitars, spaced-out rimshots, vapor-lit pads, and analog haze. It’s immersive, hypnotic, and mathematically chilled, built for late-night unwind sessions and introspective creativity. The entire album loops seamlessly from the last track back to the first, completing the macro-palindrome.
