DanceDiscoveries084 - Fried
@FriedUk
Genre: Chug
Release Date: 24 Apr 2021


UK-based DJ Fried brings us a mix of trippy primitive chug, crafted during his sets at some of Leeds’ best dancefloors and downtempo spots. The mix coincides with the launch of ‘Chug Club’, a new venture for Fried (& Ku:ro). 

The label is their COVID-19 brain child and strives to create an inclusive space dedicated to leftfield chug music. With sets across the city in the coming months keep your ears to the ground for more UK chug sounds. @ChugClubuk

DanceDiscoveries084 - Fried

Chug Club warmly welcomes friends old and new to the first instalment of our resident mix. Each featuring a curated selection from Chug Club founders, Ku:ro and Fried. Our first mix is a one and half hour trip through some of our favourite chug sounds, mixed live from our cosy basement studio in Hyde Park, Leeds (UK). Enjoy :)

Featuring tracks from from: Zillas on Acid, Sleep D, Logtoad, DJN4, Thomass Jackson, Tengri, Exquisite Corpse...

Chug Club 06.21

For our debut guest mix we welcome John Paynter - local chug legend and general nice dude. John’s library is testament to his wealth of experience as a DJ. He’s a regular face behind the dials at Beatherder festival and holds a residency down at the Outlaws Yacht Club, one of our favourite local venues (go check em out). 

Paisley Dark is John’s most recent excursion; this is the community/label behind ’Shelter Me’, a mind twisting 23 track remix album donating 100% of its proceeds to charity. With such a bounty of projects it's almost impossible for us to pick a favourite! However if you twisted our arm, we'd probably say John's long running radio show ‘A Space Age Freak Out’. This continues to inspire us 5 years on from its inception, sitting close to our hearts as a shining example of our favourite scene and music.

Kindness in Return

At Dawn & DJ Whipr Snipr - Kindness In Return [RER010]

Label Co-Founder 'Swales' offers up his first release on the imprint with’ The House Vibe EP’. A feel good mixture of genuine house vibes guaranteed to make you move.

A1 - ‘I Can’t Let You Go’ kicks off the EP on a high with infectious vocals, brass stabs and jackin’ drums all tied together by a formidable piano arrangement.

A2 - ‘The One’ takes a sleazy turn into a flawless late night house cut. Featuring gritty Rhodes stabs and hypnotising vocals it describes the story of a personal connection to the music on the dance floor.

B1 - ‘Feel The Energy’ on the flip side ups the tempo once again and delivers the ideal combination of house and garage. Expect lush instrument licks and rolling drums perfect for any occasion.

B2 - ’Thinkin’ closes the EP. Last but most definitely not least, the track takes a decisively more mellow approach than the rest of the EP utilising chopped vocals, xylophone melodies and filtered chords. Perfect to tide you over until sunrise.

The House Vibe EP will be available as a digital download via our Bandcamp page from the 20th May 2020. If you can’t wait until then track A1 - ‘I Can’t Let You Go’ will be available to those who pre-order the full EP from our Bandcamp page.

[RDR002] Swales - The House Vibe EP (Previews)

I know favouritism should be avoided but this next mix is one of the best we've had so far! Fast paced, high energy, gunfingers in full effect. It's impossible not to get pulled in throughout this infectious power hour provided by Abi Teixeira, aka code abi.  

Born in New Jersey, she now resides in NYC where she has an affiliation with Indigo Radio, as well as playing at a variety of venues throughout the city and performing out in Montreal.

Abi has been honing her production skills since 2014, but only took to the decks in 2019 where her sets are heavily influenced by her Caribbean ethnicity and her Jersey roots. You can check this out for yourself as well as her own wicked productions via the links below:

Red Rack'em w/ Kindimmer - 13th JAN 2021

Mix 12 comes from a familiar face on the Leeds scene. @friedunderground has been around the block. He’s held residencies at Distrikt, Belgrave and KMAH radio, and of course played alongside us for our LMF party with Skatebard. 

Fried’s contribution to the mix series is a sneak preview into a project which has been brewing in lockdown. His mix takes us on a much needed voyage, spanning the spiritual spectrum of down tempo acid and electronica chug.

Friends of the Forrest 012 - Fried

Welcome to the LS:MIX series, showcasing both local DJs & upcoming talent from across the country. and around the world! We ask each guest DJ to curate an hour long mix to demonstrate their technical ability & give us an insight to their music library. With no limits on genre expect a wide variety of tunes! 

From the success of the mix series we have moved on to hosting events at the likes of Wire, Beaverworks & The Old Red Bus Station. We have maintained our theme of showcasing upcoming talent whilst reaching out to more prestigious selectors to bring their sound to Leeds. We've got plenty more in store for the rest of 2019, with some of our most ambitious events to date in the pipeline. Keep ya eyes peeled for more info coming soon...
