Mix for Reprezent Radio March '21

GAB wants to say a huge thank you to all the lovely people supporting the label since we kicked things off in August last year. Starting a new project over lockdown may have been slightly rogue but the support we’ve received on social media has been a massive driving force for ur boys Van Roy and Saucebag. 

Having received some unreal original demos over the last few months we decided the best way to say thank you to our followers was through a various artists, free download EP, ‘From GAB With Love Vol. 1.'

@gibbinuk , @leonfortgang , @shaunastapleton and @donsurf  have brought the heat on this release with a range of UK underground sounds including laidback broken beat steppers, rave-ready industrial heaters and of course some outrageously large breakbeats. 

Big up the absolute g Will Weaver for coming through with this beautiful design.

Please enjoy the tunes and grab the mp3s through SoundCloud or the wavs over on our Bandcamp. And make sure you share the looooooove 🥰

Everything Merged Vol 1

‘Everything Merged’ is 3024’s second series of compilations featuring artists from the 3024 Mentoring Program. At the beginning of the pandemic, label owner Martyn started forming a lively online community of artists, providing them with ideas and inspiration. This community grew larger and larger, and musicians started to connect both online and offline, across continents and genres. It resulted in the “It Was Always There” series of compilations from 2021, and countless independent releases, radio appearances and gigs, putting a host of artists on the map.

Working on the program made Martyn and partner Jeroen Erosie reconsider the purpose of running a record label in 2022. ‘Are we still interested in putting out records via the usual channels?’ Or should a label become more of an umbrella for various activities by a larger community, both online and IRL, with digital and physical products, in other words merge everything into one.

“Everything Merged vol. 1” features the awesome music of a group of 3024 alumni from across the globe, interpreting the post-pandemic phase of electronic music each in their individual ways. There are the contemporary percussive meditations of Adam 2, Solair, Klont and Brooklynite No Sir, the 90s garage and rave inspired music of Karis, Agôn, Slovenia’s Hatterri and Noise Casino from Colombia. The exuberant technicolorist bangers of Guava, Blu-e and Cress and the deep hypnotic explorations of India’s Chhabb, MarceauxMarceaux and The Exhausted.

Squidbrain - What I Want / CattivaRagazza out June 28
Squidbrain's latest release is a forthright and bass-fevered club jaunt with catchy vocal chop-ups, adventurous sound design and maximum floor crushability.

"What I Want" is a slamming bmore track with bass that'll make you dumber, crisp drum breaks that'll make you smarter again, and funky synths and vocals that will wiggle your mom's wig right off.  The track's strengths are in the beefed up kick, highly recognizable 90s vocal interpolations and fast-paced energy changes.

"Cattivaragazza" shows the indelible influence of Chicago footwork and rings with 90s staples like ravey pads, G-funk leads, and a foreigner that sounds like Fran Drescher.  All of these conspire in a torrent of frenetic percussion to blow the club up like the giant blue laser that blew up the stripper on top of the skyscraper in Independence Day.

About the Artist
Channeling the grit and power of east coast club music to Berlin, Philadelphia native Squidbrain is a restless and unpredictable producer.  Squidbrain’s resume of DJ appearances and dance music productions spans many aliases and incarnations that date back to 2011.  In recent years his work coalesced into hard-hitting club releases that vary in style but are resolute in delivering off-kilter dance tracks that are dark, gritty, and fun.  Squidbrain draws inspiration from disparate sources ranging from Container, Kate Bush, DJ Rashad, to the depths of the internet and non-music media, giving his tracks an unconventional edge.  With the strong Späti Creatures EP released on UKG heavyweight Stone Taro’s label NC4K, and garnering support on FJAAK’s Spandau20 podcast series, Rinse FM, Munich’s Radio 80000, and Beatport’s Link series among others, Squidbrain’s music has thrived in the underground for years.  Having honed his style behind the turntables in clubs as far reaching as Kanazawa Japan, Havana Cuba, and his adopted home of Berlin, Squidbrain’s fiercely independent and music-first approach continues to surprise and impress with raw and engaging moments in the club.

What I Want / Cattivaragazza

PREMIERE: Squidbrain - What I Want [Pet's Choice]

Field Data - with Field Motion & Plus One

Our Homie and Leipzig based producer Pens revisioned two tracks of the amazing Yaya Bey LP „Remember Your North Star“ with a little help by some friends.
The warm and sparkling remash of „Pour Up“ bridges neo soul to bass and broken beat vibes, whilst the slightly slowed down footwork refix of the „Intro“ takes a more chopped path.
Get down and bubbly with Pens' Yaya Edits

Pour Up (Pens Bubbly Edit)

"The EP is called Aureolas, un presente sin ti (Halos, a present without you). The title plays with the image of halos – the way they shine, their circular form, and the idea of cycles closing and beginning again. The record is very personal, about a breakup, and it carries both the heaviness of that moment and the angelic, luminous side of what remains."
