Scuffed Recordings co-owner Wager (@wagerdj) debuts his new alias on the label with a four-track EP exploring his breaks, electro and bass influences.

London-based Wager (formerly known as High Class Filter) has spent the past few years building momentum as a DJ, with festival appearances at Glastonbury and Parklife, gigs across London and the rest of the UK, and a long-running residency on Reprezent Radio.

At the same time, he has built an in-the-know following with his productions, which have appeared on labels like Moveltraxx, Futurebounce, and Four40, and seen support on BBC Radio 1, 6Music, Rinse and NTS.

As one-half of the Scuffed Recordings team alongside Ian DPM, Wager has built the label into one of the most respected UK underground electronic labels of recent years.

The ‘Vector’ EP marks the first release under the Wager alias, and marks his first return to Scuffed since the Elemental EP in 2018.

Across four tracks, Wager explores a blend of club-focussed influences – from the acid-tinged electro slammers ‘Bump’ and ‘Vector’, to the sludgy ‘Acetic’, and rave-meets-grime workout ‘Prismatic’.

Out April 30th.

Wager - Prismatic

The mix series and music platform Mantissa takes its first steps into the label space with Mantissa 001. Written and produced by a close friend to the Mantissa family, this unnamed and elusive artist has begun the label with a bang, three club focused, space inspired tracks designed to decimate a dancefloor or atone a night's shenanigans at an after's.
Space Cadet opens the extra-terrestrial affair, weaving from acoustic elements to electronic and eclectic synth lines. Frozen Bounce finalising the A side with a wobbly number, woven together with quick cuts and jerky elements. U10A, the most structured of a complex affair, is a warming club tool perfect for both beginning and finishing an evening. It's remix similarly suitable for any party specific scenario, produced by the infamously talented artist Ciel.

Stepping up for MANT004 is the one and only Ian DPM. This EP continues an impressive string of releases for him, including on his own imprints Scuffed Recordings and Definite Party Material, all exploring the edges of club music with tunes belonging slap bang in the middle of the dancefloor.

Compliments gives Acid Dance quite the beating on the remix by putting it through a paper shredder, grabbing some of the shreds of paper and sticking them back together with a highly flammable glue before lighting the whole thing into a chaotic frenzy.

Fast becoming a staple name in Mexico City's underground scene, Rodman delivers a solid UK bass and techno driven debut EP with 'La Fragua' via the Discos Sentimiento imprint this coming March. 

'Marejada' embodies a shuffle of weighted bass and off-kilter breaks with club seducing backgrounds & provocative hand drums. This is a must for fans of intelligent bass in liking to Al Wootton, Nicola Cruz, etc.

Recovery

Out in the countryside there was a sense of ethereal peace and quiet which was hard to find amidst the towering buildings and the densely populated city from which he came. He watched as the trees blew sofftly in the breeze as the rain began to fall from the ominous grey clouds which hung low overhead. Some might be bothered by the sombre weather and the bleak lay of the land but he was not - it reflected the tone of voice which ran through his head. He let out a scream which echoed in the valley and set him free. 

Liam Robertson is set to release an EP on Redstone Press, a record label from Scotland which originated in the Highlands and is now based in Glasgow. The EP is forward thinking and channels elements of city soundscapes and the wild which lies beyond. One to watch.
