Konfront.Audio : Running Away (Fokuz Recordings)

Ryck is a DJ & producer from Berne who started DJing in 1997 after being bitten by the Drum&Bass bug at the United Tribes Raves. Playing bass & guitar in bands beforehand and continuously working in the studio on different projects he wanted to have a go at the music himself, fascinated by the sounds of Goldie and the Moving Shadow label and rave tapes of A.W.O.L., Telepathy and Helter Skelter.
In the last two decades Ryck regularly played at Swiss D&B events such as Darkside at Dachstock in Berne or Mute at Hive in Zürich. After being in involved in RaBass 95.6, a monthly Drum&Bass only show on Berne alternative radio RaBe, hosted by pionnering local DJ Lockee, he established the regular Bern Bass Podcast series in 2014 together with Konfront.Audio, Markee & Lockee and is co-promoting the Liquid Session event series at Dachstock in Berne. In 2020 he founded the Bandcamp-only Bern Bass Records label to feature Swiss producers exclusively.

Bern Bass Podcast 116 - Bern Bass Podcast Crew Tenth Anniversary Mix (November 2024)

Flowrian & Simstah - Reflections (Free Download)

1. Simstah - Fragmented 
Warm pads, subtle teases of piano and hearty vocals light up the sparse, but catchy intro from Berne homie Simstah, just to surprise on the drop when switching things to a a gritty bassline funk affair with irresistible groove. The classy track beautifully alternates between two poles, letting the dark contrast with the light and falling back from the leading heavyweight riff to its more emotional undertone again. 

2. OctaState - OMB
Our brother from St Gallen in the far East of Switzerland delivers his trademark simplistic, yet highly energetic style, starting off with vintage style synth samples and vocal chops, enough to build up great tension before unleashing a massive warping b-line sustained by an uberpowerful kick and snare rhythm - peak time tuneage guaranteed to shake the walls of any warehouse

3. OctaState - Trace Tech 
Upbeat minimalist Rave stomper laced with lovely dubbed-out bleeps and effects that is very much an updated hommage to the Tech Step sound dominating the international scene around the millennium years. Faceslapping snares, relentlessly driven forward by the poignant kickdrum and the chest-hitting Sub Bass with maximum impact on the drop, this is anthemic stuff made for the big sound rigs. 


4. Simstah - Memories
Laidback summertime flex for the sunlovers with fat slices of 90s headnod nostalgia to close off the EP with superpowered oldschool breakbeats, rumbling bass hits and musical swooshes of cut-up funk and soul bits, showing Simstahs deep roots in Hip Hop and its sampling culture. If you remember strolling home from La Cinta Beach in Sardinia, this would make the perfect soundtrack.
