For our next premiere, GAB is honoured to showcase 'Darkside' of Xander's debut EP, DIGI 001. Through a number of outrageous free downloads, Xander has rapidly ascended in the national UKG scene. DIGI 001 follows on from his dark and bass-heavy garage edits with monstrous basslines and playful sampling. Big up the hallway monitor everytime. 

Make sure you check out Xander's label Over and Out who have a series of quality releases lined up!

3. Saba (Axon Growth Factor Remix)
4. As Time Passes (Nora Drum Remix) 

Things are clearer now for Meanjin (Brisbane) producer and Pocketmoth co-founder Itrat Memon, who in the 3 years since his last EP release, worked tirelessly to reconfigure his creative practice. A first glimpse came in May 2021 when he relinquished former alias ‘Black Mannequin’ in favour of the name Meanjin’s dance music community fondly knows him by: Iti.

This signalled an intention to break free from former personal narratives, and instead view releases as extensions of the transient self from irretrievable moments in time. In other words, a firm self-commitment to finish music while at its most visceral peak, for as time passes, so too does one’s emotional connection to its birthing point. Acknowledging this impermanence, the ‘Curvework’ series houses tracks conceived and finished within ephemeral moments of creativity.

Vol. 1: As Time Passes A fast-paced 2-track, 2-remix EP, suited to a variety of dance floor contexts. The EP begins with Saba (Urdu; wind, breeze): a swift, airy groover, fusing the percussive textures of Iti’s Pakistani heritage with soft, breathing pads and his signature vocal sampling. This is followed by the EP’s title track, ‘As Time Passes’; a high-energy, broken-beat number. Here, more of Iti’s hypnotic vocal chops weave cleverly with thundering rhythm and tabla sections.

The EP’s remixes come from two of Meanjin’s most exciting and active producers; Axon Growth Factor and Nora Drum.

@axongrowthfactor
@noradrum

Off the back of his stunning release ‘Cytokenisis’ on Naarm (Melbourne) label The Space Between Us, Axon Growth Factor continues his excellent form with a stripped-back electro remix of ‘Saba’, injecting the intricate drum programming he is rapidly becoming known for.

Nora Drum, having released an equally stunning EP in collaboration with Lithe in September, continues his exploration of Drum and Bass with an immense take on ‘As Time Passes’, featuring a clinical rhythm section and textural atmosphere. Hats off.

A1 Tone Scientist - Discrepancy

C1 Tone Scientist - Pyramids On Mars
C2 Tone Scientist - Things Get Done
D1 Zion12 (aka Tone Scientist) - Esoteric Junglist
Far over on the west coast of the USA we find a room full of drum
machines, samplers and keyboards. Hard at work is Israel ‘Iz’ Gravning
aka Tone Scientist, who’s been using this Seattle studio to produce
genre-defying future music for more than 25 years.
An avid student of jazz fusion, hip hop, house, techno and others, he
was galvanised to build his own studio after hearing jungle and drum &
bass on a trip to London in 1995. His musical course thus intersected
with the collectives then pushing new dancefloor sonics rooted in the rich
tradition of Black music – like Nuyorican Soul over on the east coast,
and the new broken beats of IG Culture, Dego and Bugz In The Attic in
London. Then, in the early 2000s, Iz put out a handful of EPs under
different aliases, including ‘Lion Dub’ on the Guidance sublabel
Subtitled, but soon stepped back from the public stage. That’s not to say
he stopped making or playing music, though. Far from it.
Fast forward two decades and our very own Walrus, chilly but happy in
the depths of a Toronto winter, happened across ‘Lion Dub’ in the
legendary Play The Record store. Intrigued, he tracked Iz down and
discovered he had been active all this time. A short email exchange later
and this 2xLP of archive material was born.
These six tracks explain fully why Iz calls his studio the ‘Time Machine’:
vintage equipment and instruments converse with up-to-date software;
classic sounds and textures twist into fresh configurations; and Iz’s own
creativity and musicality sings to us from a location beyond the trappings
of time or genre.
All music written, produced and mixed by Israel Gravning aka Tone
Scientist in Seattle/Washington between 2005 - 2008 except for “Things
Get Done”, written and produced in 2003, and “Bossman”, originally
produced by Kris Moon and remixed by Tone Scientist. Zion12 was the
name used by Israel for releasing Jungle/DnB and when DJing
professionally around Seattle and elsewhere. Mastered & cut by Stefan
Betke at Scape Berlin. Brought to you by Crevette Distribution
Brussels/Belgium. All artwork by Camiflage. Printed by Bichel at
Chromodrome Brussels/Belgium. Liner notes by Joe Delon. Israel would
like to thank Mom, Dad, my brothers Gabriel & Jagger and their families,
Cord, Andy, Kiva, the Ninjas at DSF, the Grid crew & the Great Spirit.
Basic Moves would like to thank Jakob, Pim, Camiel, Boudewijn, Deg,
Ailsa, Mike, Jordan, Kimcom & Joe. Keep buying records/don’t stream
your life away. Underground club culture: one love/one circle

All we cannot face

We'll always wind a way
We're learning to accept what we can't change
The story of our lives
We read between the lines 

We read between the lines 

We read between the lines 

All we cannot face

We'll always wind away
We're learning to accept what we can't change
The story of our lives

We read between the lines 
We read between the lines 

We read between the lines
