The Mighty and Dependable Digs and Whoosh do what they do best. Tune after tune after tune in an epic set at the DiY 25th birthday party. 

Digs & Woosh DiY 25th Bithday PT1

A pioneer of UK breakbeat culture, having cut his teeth as half of Evil Nine, EVL Tom brings a myriad of influences to bear on his debut album, ‘Absolute Melt’. It’s an opus where Moodymann-esque Detroit soul flavours meet the psychedelic rave stylings of early Future Sound Of London, the raw but incessantly funky loops of hip-hop producers Madlib and the RZA rub up against the bass aesthetic of early ‘90s jungle/drum & bass. 
 
“Absolute Melt’ was me endeavouring to make a truly autobiographical record that represents my diverse tastes and experiences but bringing them together to form a cohesive whole. It’s a hybrid opus, the fulfilment of a life-long ambition to make an album solely by myself — to resoundly kick back against the Imposter Syndrome on my shoulder whispering that it couldn’t be done.” - EVL Tom
 
The thunder of rainstorms and other organic tones abound in the album opener ‘Trees’, a track drenched in bass with a Vangelis-esque horn melody riding it. Then it’s into ‘A Prayer’ with its mantra on peace and love, Tom’s stab at pushing out some positive feelings into the world, sonically harking back to early DJ Shadow and those seminal Mo’Wax joints. Two breakbeat cuts follow; ‘Incendies’ is a low-slung, smoked out roller with hints of Burial and ‘90s jungle (albeit at a fraction of the tempo), and ‘Eternal Lids’ is a track crafted to evoke late-night drives around cityscapes aglow with orange light and neon.  Taking a breath in the middle of the album we have the beat-less ‘Norman’, which is melancholically melodic like a sci-fi movie scene-setter, which then moves into ‘Rebels Of The Neon God’ where we’re taking it back to the club. The title references a Taiwanese cult film favourite of Tom’s and also serves as a tribute to Taiwan, a place dear to Tom after numerous visits over the years. An electro / hardcore hybrid, ‘Rebels…’ buzzes with an undercurrent of pure rave euphoria. 

Next up is the first single off the album, ‘The Heathers’, a dream-like, psychedelic epic with a dark second half that’s a counterpoint to the more wistful beginning of the tune. This is closely followed up by second single ‘Give Up (Don’t)’, something that Ron Hardy would maybe play at Muzic Box in Chicago, a tough disco banger pinned with an organic break that oozes raw funk. It’s a heads-down belter where the mood is positive and euphoric. Album closer ‘Love In Fire & Blood’ is the embodiment of a meme where a dude drinks a big bottle of cranberry juice whilst skateboarding to Fleetwood Mac — musically dense, and with the album’s signature blending of organic and electronic flavours. This delicate balance was achieved in the collaborative mixdown of the album by Tom and top bro Alexander James Fox, who brought his talent and knowledge to the table to craft it into the deeply woven epic you have before you.
 
“The title ‘Absolute Melt’ started as an in-joke, just a dope phrase that made me and my crew crease up, but then as I started to think on it, many levels were revealed to me. There’s ‘melting’ everywhere, with its climate change connotations; the psychedelic slant; and also perhaps a self-deprecating angle where maybe I’m the absolute melt… or you are, ha ha!” - EVL Tom
 
The artist also records as one half of Evil Nine with Pat Pardy, originally signed to Adam Freeland’s label Marine Parade. Their award-winning ‘You Can Be Special Too’ and ‘They Live!’ albums received widespread acclaim and in the process they collaborated with such luminaries as El-P from Run The Jewels, Danny Brown, Aesop Rock and Emily Breeze. They were residents at Fabric London, did a Radio One Essential Mix and toured the world several times performing at Fuji Rock Festival, Space in Miami, Twilo in NYC, Coachella and Arcadia at Glastonbury.

BOARDERLINE

Unleashed is a high-energy, hypnotic techno track that drives forward with purpose yet remains fluid and steady. It draws you in slowly, then catapults you into a space where you're free to let everything go.

This track is about total release no worries, no judgment, no expectations. It's about being unapologetically yourself, not bound by the values or opinions of others. Just presence, freedom, and pure expression.

It captures that powerful moment on the dance floor when you're fully alive, moving without thought, just being.
