This is my first ever EP 'Highly Rogue'
Four tracks that tell the story of the past two years. From the moment I went all in as an artist, to the chaos, freedom, and euphoria that came with it.

It starts with Time To Move, a 138 BPM rave driven statement. Then Take Me, emotional and euphoric with that classic 90s piano and vocal energy. Kick It brings the darker and more rollin side. And the All Day Long Mix of All Night closes it all off, a tribute to those endless nights that never seem to end.

Erax D.T - World (Original Mix)

We are delighted to welcome none other than Q-BRA (@qbra) to our DETECT mix series.
They have recorded an exclusive one hour mix for us, available to listen to now on our FOLD SoundCloud.

Music, just like any of culture’s facets, has a key thing at its heart: storytelling. Whether they come in the form of a song, a book, a speech, a dance or an opera, the greatest stories have long transcended languages and borders. They impart information, excite our imagination and spur on our creative thoughts. They challenge the status quo as well as ourselves.

Which is why for an artist like Q-BRA, curation is of the utmost importance; every track from the XSM Records co-founder is a necessary character, all playing a particular role in the effortlessly multi-layered narrative. 

The 90s are revisited in this delightful one hour mix from Q-BRA, with old-school Chicago house threading together more contemporary acid, electro and house. It’s this genre-fluid approach that has become Q-BRA’s trademark; for the moment a dance-floor’s storyline begins to wane, so does its audience’s attention and lasting power. And knowing how and when to change before this happens is the mark of a true storyteller. Short storylines connect their four different groups of genres, all wound together with gradual transitions and several surprises along the way. 

After nearly-25 years of performing throughout Istanbul's queer underground, they have deservedly become one of the most recognisable activists in the city. More recently they made the move to London, following it up with performances in the Barbican as well as appearing as a panellist on FOLD Talks.
