Flobama - Apocalypse (feat. Fracture)

Single from the forthcoming Orion Sound EP by Flobama on Astrophonica

Lo-Fi stoner Jungle infused with Texan bass and boom bap Hip-Hop. A hazy UK-US fusion—blissed-out yet gritty. Imagine Photek and Madlib crafting a beat on a ‘90s Amiga, with Metro Boomin’ on the 808s in 2025. Collaborated with Roland on an official SP-404 live performance tutorial and the SP-404MKII launch. Created a finger-drumming performance for Red Bull Music’s 60 Seconds Challenge on instagram. Strong Instagram presence, with a recent reel hitting 3.6M views

Spires - Spires (Dub Version)

Artist: Cause4Concern
Release: Bedhead (Quadrant & Iris Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK089
Support: https://cygnusmusic.link/m47yqwy

From the opening seconds, the Quadrant & Iris remix of Bedhead strikes a careful balance between reverence and reinvention. The original’s ominous sub-bass growl and the skeletal drum patterns that made Bedhead a C4C classic are still present.

For longtime fans, this version is a respectful tribute; for newer ears, it stands on its own as a high-caliber, heavy-hitting drum & bass track. Quadrant & Iris manage to refresh a classic without betraying its spirit—a mark of what a good remix should aim for.

Basic Channel is a production duo consisting of Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus. They are considered to be pioneers of the dub techno genre, which combines the repetitive beats and basslines of techno with the atmospheric and textural elements of dub music.

Basic Channel's music is characterized by its deep, hypnotic grooves, expansive soundscapes, and emphasis on sonic textures and spatial effects. They are known for their extensive use of delay, reverb, and other processing techniques to create a rich and immersive sonic environment.

One of Basic Channel's most significant contributions to electronic music is the creation of the Chain Reaction record label, which became a key platform for the development of the dub techno sound. They also developed a unique production style that emphasized the use of analog equipment and live performance techniques, which influenced many other electronic music producers.

Their productions are highly regarded for their technical and sonic excellence, and their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary electronic music producers. Basic Channel's legacy has been further cemented through their work as mastering engineers, where they have helped shape the sound of countless electronic music records over the past few decades.
