Sharing his name with jeans made for hip-hop hunees, Applebottom really knows how to make booties shake.

Aside from a couple of cuts on Night Tracks and MadTech, his silken deep house/garage moves have been made almost entirely online, rather than through a flood of established label releases.

Giving away free downloads like 'Sex Drugs Cash', 'Let You' via Eton Messy and 'T.M.P' through us, put this Bristolian on the map in a big way, scoring hundreds of thousands of listens and, (in the case of 'Let You') over two million views on YouTube. As a result his name started appearing on line-ups all over the shop throughout 2013 and today his name sits stronger than ever.

One of his line-ups that really stands out is Ceremony in Finsbury Park on Saturday 13th September. Presented by Found and featuring the likes of Inner City (live), Louis Vega, Nick Curly and Chez Damier on stages run by 51st State, Urban Nerds, Magna Carter and Egg LDN, the event looks destined to be a delightful cherry on top of a very excellent summer of clubbing in London.

Applebottom mixed this week's DJ Mag podcast. Throwing everything in the pot, it combines dark tech-y sounds with Y3K electro and fidgeting future bass, featuring tunes from Samu.I and Hideo Kobayshi alongside his own.

Ambient Babestation Meltdown & Borai ‘My Heart My Motherboard

Pre-order: https://fanlink.tv/Human_Material_EP

@ambient-babestation returns to @optimo-music with a second collaborative release, this time with Bristol's sound-obsessive @borai. Their three-track EP, titled 'Human Material', collides electro, UKG and techno with early ‘90s hardcore.

'Do Androids Dream of Key Lime Pie' is a nod to the unabashed glory days of ‘90s hardcore and frantic sampling. Dubbed-out low ends make way for dusty jungle breaks.

Premiere: Ambient Babestation Meltdown & Borai 'Do Androids Dream Of Key Lime Pie'

Pre-order: https://ffm.bio/rajirags

‘Congratulations’ is the debut EP from @rajirags on his OTIH Records label. A culmination of his influences merged together, the EP spans breakneck percussive rhythms across five tracks.

‘Bullet Train’ featuring @soniacalico is full of sharp corners and hi-hats that hiss, a breakdown that distorts bowed double bass beyond recognition, and stuttering note echos from Koto synths before returning back to the driving and shuffling Taiko and Darbuka drums.

Premiere: Raji Rags 'Bullet Train' (ft. Sonia Calico)
