This October, the final reading of the Nationality and Borders Bill – known as the Anti-Refugee Bill – will be presented to parliament. If it goes through, this Bill will allow the UK to reject an estimated 9,000 asylum seekers who are currently eligible to claim settlement every year.

Electronic dance music culture is rich because of the people who make it up. Diversity is built into the UK’s roots: it is what enables our music to thrive. At Pollination, we refuse narratives that separate and dehumanise people. Instead, embracing the deep human values of unity, care and connection.

Join us in celebrating the blend of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives that form the fabric of our scene. As members of the UK’s creative community, we come together to stand against this cruel and inhumane Bill. We believe that the UK, our home, is a place that welcomes all people.

100% of the profit raised from the campaign and event will be sent to Kent Refugee Action Network (KRAN), a brilliant independent charity who work with young people to rebuild their lives after arriving unaccompanied in the UK to seek asylum.

PREMIERE - Pannotia - Maenad's Trance

They held one another tightly as they walked peacefully along the dimly lit boulevard. The wind howled and the rain battered the pier in the distance as they watched the waves crash in against the shore. It was dark, there was nobody else around. 

In the distance they could see the faint shadow of a boat moving against a milky backdrop of stars and murky clouds. She held his hand tighter now, it were as if no palm was too big to ease her nerves. Not even his...

Warming, the introspective division of Warning, was launched by resident Mars Leder as an “off the (Rave) track” mix series in 2019. Since then the aim has been to provide warm vibes in a cold world to help us unwind in hectic times. We’re now expanding the sub-project and present to you WARM01, the first Ambient music release on Warning. With seven mindfully selected tracks from Areliz Ramos, Yhdessa, Caldera, Premis, Lewi Boome, Vertical67, and Warning resident Philipp Otterbach with his new project KYN, a collaboration with Sebastian Eubel. The compilation aims to reflect the versatility of the genre, from mellow textures and floating voices to fractal patterns and rapturous basslines. Don’t expect any ordinary elevator music or beach cafe vibes - this one will be chill, but it’s still a Warning.

Acid house at its finest - SJ Tequilla style!

A fun, fresh and ~ freaky ~ record that will NOT leave your record bag... Originally hailing from Japan but currently living Berlin, SJT is known far and wide for his Teknobuskers project, a hardware DIY dance party hosted with friends and held regularly in 'Max-Koch-Passage’, Berlin. The energy from these dance parties can be felt and lived through his latest ep, ‘GG Allien’.

SJT’s skilful use of mind melting background tape textures and moody pads provide the encapsulating canvas for otherworldly acid lines, driving hardware percussion and enlightening melodies. An ep primed to transcend the listener to a place of communal acidic dance appreciation.

Art & design by Studio Vinciguerra.
Cut & mastered by Marco Pellegrino.

GG Allien

MD008 SJ Tequilla - GG Allien (Previews)

Sleep was all she could think about; she couldn’t get enough of it, no matter how long she dozed or napped she never felt satisfied. Her bed was her sanctuary, her best friend and confidant, the only place she felt truly safe… It wouldn’t be unusual for her to spend an entire day there, wrapped up in the warmth of her duvet and in the safety of her dreams. To her, there was no place better…

Last summer Sunju Hargun’s Siamese Twins imprint shared their second pan-Asian compilation which gave a spotlight to artists who are exploring ambient and psychedelic terrain. The cassette release, titled Kāthā - a Khmer and Thai name for sacred mantras that are chanted to bring protection and charm - featured music from Khun Fluff, Nic Ford, Mogambo, Temple Rat and more. The label have brought on board a new roster of artists who offer up their own takes on the original material; there’s a rhythmic low end excursion from Konduku; a double offering from Jonathan Kusuma; and a modulated IDM trip from Higher Intelligence Agency.

PREMIERE: Temple Rat - The Garden of Earthly Delights (Higher Intelligence Agency Mix)

Descend into the vast underwater world of Melbourne/Naarm producer LOIF(@loiflan).  LOIF's imagination of the mysterious world beneath the shores needs not words to describe it, but your ears to envision it.

The EP travels through the depths and rhythms of techno, electro, bass, breaks, psy, glued together by a bubbly warmth reminiscent of oceanic exploration and dance floor groove.

LOIF - Plunge (ANIMA7)

Everyone is an observer at some point in time. Everybody is watching, observing, researching something in own life.

Whether it is the old Hindu looking forward to the time when his body will be carried in a shroud to the last journey to the Ganges by the scent of flowers and then he has been liberated from the cycle of samsara, or when the cataphract is finally done with its struggle and freed from its armour somewhere in the midst of the steppes of Eurasia.

Whether it is the blind man who enters his inner garden of silence and explores there the images that none of the rest of us can see.

Whether it is the viewer who floats in a difficult to grasp triptych.

What is "there" behind that observation? Something modest, or something that changes our lives?

After more than two years Martin Kuška returns with his project Goodbye Mirage with a new EP "Turning Point Observer". A hypnotic dreamy-progressive five track and five remixes EP, in whose tracks you can constantly search for something new - the endless faith or doubt, the loneliness of days or the shining energy of social moments yet to come, body to body.

When you hear it on the dance floor, you can dance and smile, or dance and feel deep sentiment. It's up to you. The possibilities are endless as the vast ocean - let yourself go and become an observer of... who knows... perhaps a turning point in your life.

Goodbye Mirage - Turning Point Observer (snippets) // PRE-ORDER NOW

We are very pleased to share this track from the latest release on R.i.O. - def one of Berlin's most forward thinking labels. While regularly showcasing the works of their own creative community, build around label heads Menqui, Nadia D'Alo and of course Benedikt Frey, they also keep introducing new exciting talents via their platform. This time it's KXB!

A dynamic configuration of rhythms plus melodies, overlaid with musings on repetitive neverlands: R.i.O. welcomes KXB, aka Sam Gill and Wes Holland, a duo that, as they put it, “was born and baptised on the balcony at Robert Johnson in 2019, while Wes lived in London and Sam in Melbourne.” 

“Areas of Uncertainty” is their first musical outcome. It carries a rhythmic show bag, that circumnavigates streamlined track architecture. From Can-ish live drumming submitted by guest rhythmist Graeme Pogson to sequenced synth spheres, the three multilayered groove landscapes of the Australian duo punch severely arcane.
