There are few names as widely loved in clubland as Bristol-based producer Omar McCutcheon, AKA Batu.

His label Timedance, currently celebrating its ten-year anniversary, has been instrumental in shaping a certain corner of contemporary electronic music. It champions a mutant, rhythmic, UK-flavoured sound that escapes any obvious genre touchstones, as well as spotlighting the careers of artists like Verraco, Ploy and Hodge who push musical and cultural boundaries.

In this Exchange, McCutcheon sat down with Resident Advisor's editor, Gabriel Szatan, in London to reflect on the label's Afrofuturist philosophy, its journey over the past decade and the sense of purpose and direction that have developed over time. He spoke about the impact that scenes beyond the UK—such as China, South Africa, Brazil and Mexico—have had on his productions and label curation, and how they offer fresh perspectives that contrast with Europe's sometimes overly nostalgic take on dance music. He also discussed finding positivity in a dark time, and music's enduring potential to inspire and connect.

Milkman Radio #61 is out now with an electrifying mix from Dual Monitor - the dynamic duo of Fliss Mayo & Zebb Dempster, hailing from Liverpool and Bristol. Known for their fearless “play it all” approach, their sound weaves through twisted basslines, psychedelic UK funky, breaks, speed dembow, and mind-bending house. With releases on CloudCore, ec2a, and N-Face, and support from heavyweights like Ben UFO, Bicep, Interplanetary Criminal, salute, Or:la, Pangaea, DJ Seinfeld, and HAAi, Dual Monitor are fast becoming one of the UK’s most compelling new names. Their fusion of techno, electro, and bass is pure kinetic energy - unpredictable, playful, and impossible to stand still to.
