Ivy Lab, also known as Sabre and Stray, willfully break down genre boundaries with the ‘Demon Dust’ EP. It is born from a love of UK bass but plays with tempo, collides hip-hop with jungle, LA humidity with London grit, and so much more. Following releases on the likes of Dirtybird and their own TWTW London imprint, they now land on the Australian Future Classic label, with the first single ‘Backshifting’ dropping in November and the entire EP following suit in December.

“We’ve built a hunger to unleash a solid season of dance floor material and to do so in spaces we’ve either neglected in recent years or yet to have turned our hand to. We’re still always gonna carry our baggage as bass heads with a love of hip-hop with us, but the genre pool where we can explore those themes is deeper than ever, and we have so much to say in that conversation” - Ivy Lab

Successfully test-driven by dBridge and Ehua at Draaimolen, opener 'Backshifting' is a joyous blend of dusty breakbeats and pitched-up vocal hooks that make the heart flutter. The sound design is next level as the fractured loops and bursts of synth all soar and bring the good times. 'Fool' is a deeper excursion with gentle amen breaks worked into a sinewy house groove that bubbles and souls with mystic hooks and warm chords. The title track ‘Demon Dust’ highlights another angle, blending screwy acid with beautiful piano chords, bursts of breaks, gospel chorals and slamming hits. US scene mainstay Nikki Nair then remixes ‘Backshifting’ with his signature blend of percussive club music, closing out a hugely original EP that combines many different moods and genres, all to energising and emotional effect.

'Teleporter’ is the new joint EP from Deft & Lewis James; a natural pairing of minds for a project that has been long in the making. Both have indirectly crossed paths via separate releases and collabs on Exit Records and 1985 Music, and now come together on Deft’s own B4 Music.

Both artists are well versed in creating a balanced combination of atmospheric soundscapes, heavy sound design and emotively driven electronic music (evident in their last releases for 20/20 LDN / Hooversound and Exit / Astrophonica respectively), which ’Teleporter’ does not fall short on.

With varying tempos and paces, the EP dips into new territories that both have adapted and developed to make their own. Taking influence from their already familiar backgrounds in Bass, Footwork, DnB, Hip Hop / Beats, the result is four ominously threatening, sub heavy dance floor cuts, uncompromising in mood, tone and aggression.

Title track ‘Teleporter’ comes in at 128bpm with echos of the 140 sound, and demonstrates the impact of a single note sub-bass line, drums and a frantic melodic hook; distorted, dirty and fierce.

Carrying through the fraught melodic hook energy is ‘Peepo’; a playfully chaotic half-time/beats stomper, driven with booming 808’s layered with precise and outlandish sound design.

‘Octo’ is the 170bpm roller of the release, a slight breather from the previous tracks that progressively builds tension and apprehension via its infectious percussion loop, haunting & hypnotic melodics and driving sub drones.

‘Wolf 504 b’; dystopian melodics and soundscapes drift and crescendo over slamming drums and a scowling, distorted bassline, bringing this collaborative effort to an enigmatic close.

’Teleporter’ is released 26th March 2021
