"Club Glow are back with another instalment of our cassette series and this time we’ve enlisted some outside help

Please join us in giving a warm welcome to AK Sports & Kessler who both provide an amazing array of sonics for the label. We’ve been fans of theirs for ages and its been a great pleasure to work with them on this project. They've pushed themselves out of their comfort zones to deliver something we think is truly outstanding.

On the A side AK Sports kicks off with her signature infusion of 4x4 kicks, film & tv samples and aggy breakbeats. Earworms a plenty!

On the flip, Kessler charges ahead with true breakbeat wizardry, fluttering through the BPMs with such ease, his sides packed with Jungle, Electro and that 130 goodness.

If you’ve locked into our radio show or live streams over the last 12 months you will no doubt have heard some of these already.
All this packaged up in a Bright Orange cassette tape with an A5 Rave flyer, all tape orders come with the digital album free including mixes of both sides and the first 25 orders get an exclusive Club Glow lanyard"

West Coast mainstays @dannygoliger and @justin-jay bring a slamming, club-ready collaborative release to Scuffed Recordings on the ‘Sticky Rice’ EP.

Danny and Justin have been releasing music together since 2020, when the two teamed up for a track on their own Fantastic Voyage imprint. Since then, the Los Angeles based artists have collaborated on tracks on Dirtybird and Childsplay, marking them out as a team to be reckoned with.

Alongside their collabs, Danny has appeared as a solo artist on labels like clip.art, art|werk and Moving Castle, while Justin has had a storied career appearing on labels as varied as Time Is Now, Suara, and Pets Recordings along with being a longtime member of the Dirtybird camp.

Now the two join forces on Scuffed Recordings, with a release including two collabs and a solo track from each artist.

From the outset, the duo wears their UK influences on their sleeves, taking in breakbeat grooves, rolling bass, and upfront percussion. Over the course of the two collabs and two solo tracks, Danny and Justin gleefully tear through an array of genres and influences – whether that’s electro, techno, UK garage, breaks, or IDM, they bounce off each other effortlessly to form a concise and impactful club EP.

When Mani Festo isn’t designing the artwork for Club Glow - the collective he forms part of alongside Borai, Denham Audio and LMajor - or running his own imprint ‘Flightpath’, he uses his DJ sets and production to pay homage to the soundsystem-oriented music that made him. A real artist of the moment, the past couple of years have seen Mani Festo get the recognition he deserves, with many citing his prowess in capturing the darkly seductive essence of hardcore’s antecedents, creating something at once nostalgic and futuristic. 

Those searching for this fine balance will not be disappointed by Pathfinder EP, the next  instalment of Basement Trax: a series which focuses on club-fuelled Techno and Electro. ‘Powertriip’ is a full-bodied electro slammer, coloured by the metallic textures of an industrial soundscape. The title track continues with the same high-voltage pressure, this time with hi-hats that give it double-time energy. The B-side is about computer love: ‘Big Rooms’ is driven by a highly-processed acid melody whilst ‘Auto Sequence’ is a dizzying take on breaks with high-pitched arpeggios and deranged vocal chops that add to the track’s eeriness.

SNFBT012 // Mani Festo - Pathfinder EP

Compliments is a non-binary dance music producer from Huddersfield, based in London. Their work is heavily influenced by the percussive UK styles of jungle, garage and bassline, with a pinch of nü-metal’s distortion and adolescent energy thrown in for good measure.

Tomgirl, their newest release on Mantissa, showcases these stylistic influences across four tracks that move between wonky 4/4 techno, amen-heavy jungle, spacey 140 and swampy chugging house, playing with the idea of floating somewhere between masculinity and femininity, hard and soft.

After experimenting with samples of their own voice on their debut album ‘The place where my voice should be’ (self-released in March 2022), the EP builds on this technique to create eerie atmospherics and strange rhythms in a more club-focused and dance floor orientated zone.

Tomgirl is topped off with a remix by Bristol’s Bex, channeling a potent strain of bassy, stepping techno that her productions and DJ sets have become famous for.
