London duo @sicariasound has reinvigorated dubstep by pulling from every side of the 140bpm spectrum. The pair of Ndeko and Imbratura are longtime friends who have an unspoken understanding when it comes to DJing together, as was frequently demonstrated at their residency for Mala's Deep Medi. They also run their own Cutcross label which can serve up sounds that reference anything from breakbeat to grime, rave to bass. Despite this success - and the news this week that they are to put out Binate, their first official EP - they have also announced that they will disband the project at the end of 2021.

Thankfully, we will always have the mix to come back to, because it is a perfect embodiment of their sound. Well informed but never too serious, it takes in ice-cold wobblers as well as industrial strength steppers and skeletal, minimal dubstep sounds that hark back to the golden era. The whole thing is stitched together in a way that shows up the contrasts of light and dark, spaciousness and intensity and ensures you remain fully locked in.

Deviate Guest Mix 018 - Yin Yang Audio

hailing from the sunny shores of southern france and co-founder of the noise workers collective, 9dwa pushes the boundaries between experimental and dancy materials, taking us  through this breaky podcast into a rising journey from downtempo to faster grooves. Dub-laced frequencies and dnb-tinged rhythms converse with deep and unpredictable basslines to create a bubbling and enveloping atmosphere, like a sunny tale of sound…

It’s been quite some time since my last mix, but I’m excited to share a new one I’ve been working on. This mix features a variety of unreleased and upcoming tracks from both myself and my recent collaborator, Exm, showcasing our unique styles and creative synergy.
In addition to our original work, I’ve woven in some exceptional IDM tracks that reflect what I’ve been listening to lately, including artists like Vaag, Marric, Djrum, Sdem, and many more. Each selection has been carefully chosen to complement the overall flow of the mix and create an immersive listening experience.
