Lacuna delves into deeper and darker territory with a split EP from two young producers carving out their own niche in the bass music landscape. Following 2023 releases on Left, Right & Centre and Nostro Hood System respectively, Small Crab and Elpac join forces on Lacuna to deliver four no-nonsense, club-ready, low-end tracks.

Ophélie, a French Berlin DJ and radio host for Refuge Worldwide, introduces their inaugural release on Hundert Records titled "Pipa Pipa". Drawing inspiration from the early days of Jungle and Drum and Bass labels like Moving Shadows, Ophélie offers their unique interpretation of the atmospheric aspect of this genre. By blending deep, soothing chords with a timeless drum arrangement, they craft an auditory journey that transcends the dance-floor.

Can you feel the Synergy? @blackartistdatabase (B.A.D.) is back with 'Synergy Vol. 2' – this time across an expanded repertoire of 12 tracks.

The release maintains the core vision of the B.A.D. label as one of, quite simply, celebrating the kaleidoscopic range of contemporary Black electronic producers. The likes of AGY3NA, Carista, and @ehuamusic grace a tracklist that dips and bends between heady dancefloor stompers and sunrise cool-downs, and crosses continents with offerings from Nairobi to Naarm. 

B.A.D. is throwing a party at fabric on Saturday, May 18. Tickets here: https://ra.co/events/1883481

Following 2023’s all-conquering ‘Malware Trance’ — a peak-time dose of exe.stascy played by all (all) your favourite DJs — Martyn Bootyspoon returns to Local Action with a new two-tracker of precision-tooled club heat.

One of North America’s finest and busiest DJs, we’ve made this point before but Bootyspoon is someone who just gets club music: the history, the dynamics, the key touchstones and the whole lineage. And crucially, when it comes to making it, he’s got the juice. No matter how wild or wonky, his tracks always move dancefloors, and ‘Doors at 11’ is a perfect example: hard drums and an even harder bassline that gets every bit of value out of some automated resonance and a salt shaker perc riff. Perfect heavy warm-up music, basically.

The B-side, meanwhile, feels like a sequel to ‘Malware Trance’, using a pair of interlocking synth riffs and waterdrop percussion to ride that same line between anxiety and euphoria — somewhere between a cold sweat and a hot flush.
