Much loved underground community organisation Parry Talks has announced the release of their sophomore, record label, charity compilation, Parry Talks Alumni Volume II. The 4 track compilation comes off the back of an extremely successful debut release which raised $1500 for NSW Aboriginal Legal Service. Now the tracklist has opened up to Sydney/Eora’s noisy neighbours in Melbourne/Naarm for a charity release with 100% of the revenue being dedicated to Smugglers of Light. This digital only, bandcamp exclusive release features a who's who of the incredible underground scenes, featuring Purient, DAWS, Posture and Glen S.

The charity which every cent of the compilation will contribute funds to is Smugglers of Light.
The Foundation was created to provide assistance to young indigenous musicians and youth at risk through programs of taking film-makers and musicians to their communities. The charity introduces songwriting and musicianship and performance skills for First Nations communities, assists n the provision of musical education and training to persons in the area of youth and indigenous music, in order to improve the outreach of musical education and storytelling in Australia, to facilitate musical development and innovation in Australian indigenous communities; and to encourage the performance of contemporary community music.

Infirmary

Kode9 - Infirmary [fabric Originals]

We are thrilled to release a new 10 track compilation, 'fabric SELECTS II'. The project is a curated release celebrating bass music past and and present, arriving today on our new imprint for new music, fabric Originals. 

In addition to two singles already out ahead of the full compilation release – Skream’s remarkable return to dubstep ‘Summoned’ and emerging UK producer LUXE’s tension-filled ‘Duality’ – the compilation features original music from Le Motel & Flowdan, dBridge, Al Wootton, Neil Landstrumm and more. After SELECTS I’s techno compilation, SELECTS II puts focus on bass, featuring a host of the scene’s most creative and forward-thinking producers and stakes claim as fabric’s vision on what the future of the genre could sound like. 

Iconic figures in the bass music scene such as dBridge have contributed tracks. With a long-standing relationship with both fabric and FABRICLIVE club nights dBridge is a perfect fit for the fabric Originals debut bass compilation. His track ‘Ecstatic Madness’ exhibits the artist’s linchpin status in the scene perfectly; an atmospheric drum and bass track with haunting and immersive tones taking the listener through a deep bassline, intricate drums, and an evolving sense of impeding – yet welcome – danger. 


Elsewhere, “Wild Guide” brings the formidable East London grime MC Flowdan together with Brussels-based DJ and producer Le Motel for a gritty and glitchy production that sees Flowdan’s lyrical prowess come back “like-a-bad-habit” full force in the centre of the compilation, underpinned by Le Motel’s pin-point and intricately layered production. 


Meanwhile emerging and new-scene producers and creators such as Ehua, with the almost-glacial and growing ‘Gaida’, Kessler who follows Ehua by kicking it up a notch on ‘Simma’, and Bluetoof, whose penultimate track on the project ‘Inverted’ upends our expectations through subtle layers in the bassline and a consistent driving intensity, all work to ground the narrative of the project. 

Harriet Bliss of fabric Records, explains the curation of fabric SELECTS II: “With this compilation fabric are aiming to take on the future of bass music through an amalgamation of sounds that live in different spheres but marry together cohesively. From the club’s heritage sound in drum and bass, to slower tempos in techno, all complimented by London's seminal dubstep influence. These tracks carry the main theme of bass, paying homage to London's sound-system culture."

About fabric Originals 

After being launched in September 2022, our new addition to the family of labels (Houndstooth / fabric Records) has already seen a steady output of EPs, a techno-focused compilation, and a full album release from emerging electronic talent TYGAPAW. Further releases from Eris Drew & Octo Octa, DJ Bone, Helena Hauff and LCY – to name a few – fabric SELECTS II is the second compilation out on fabric Originals after SELECTS I’s techno-focused iteration. 

For fabric Originals, fabric SELECTS II marks a compelling addition to its fresh and rapidly growing catalog. The project will make groundbreaking work, not just from the first two singles from LUXE and Skream, but in its overall platforming of bass and hybrid club sound pioneers front-and-centre on a major new compiled works.
