Bside Incoming: Rubi

Now based in Berlin, Rubi was recently running her own 'Out of Sight' event series in Yangon while teaching tech as a professor in Myanmar. As well as co-founding the Kommuna Tapes record label, founded in 2016 under the same name as the successful Barcelona event series, she is also a resident with RA+RE and Rings of Neptune.

Her YouTube channel is an absolute gold mine for the deep, dubby, and beautifully bizarre:

Each one of her mixes is as cool and clinical as it is richly warm, packed full of new musical discoveries and much cherished records. Her episode of Bside Incoming is no exception; a downtempo masterclass of vibrant ambient layers, electro grooves and irresistible breaks, with lots of bleeps and bloops.

Bside Incoming: Rubi

Curated by Lazy Susan (2StepBec, oliver.r and Zeus) the Truffle101 project sees the light of day this Spring with their inaugural release from co-founder oliver.r (@oliverrf5) under his Raynerfromfinance moniker. The first on the label explores a multitude of textures, gliding between sleek jazz, hazy dub, ethereal ambience and everything in between. Music from the soul, for the soul, as the man on the numbers, Raynerfromfinance shares his debut offering in the realms of downtempo productions. 

A loungey quest paying testament to the versatile direction of the Truffle101 label, a project from three aficionados of the slower end of the spectrum, looking to share idyllic sounds from friends and artists they meet along the way, presenting them to a new and appreciative audience. 

“Please make yourself comfortable, sit back and relax, whilst we take you on this journey of the sounds of Truffle101”

T. Jacques - Live From Dimensions 24'

This mixtape features only Sonn Ten's music wrapped in a 84 minutes journey that takes you all the way through the sound of Evoke EP.

It includes both finished and unfinished tracks, some loose takes/jams as well as just random samples he created these past few years, covering a chapter that shaped not only his sound but also how he approaches making music today.

Lock in for 2.5+ hours of deep & summery house gems from across the map. Anyone that was there will know how much of a sweet day this was, so it's our pleasure to re-live this moment.
