Native to Sweden, the Manchester-based artist Bobo has set out to free himself from the terrestrial bonds of earth and explore the ephemeral sounds of the outer atmosphere.  
Leaning into this stylistic predisposition, Contact takes characteristic elements from the worlds of dubstep, ambient, breaks, electro and techno to create bold, cinematic textures and otherworldly imagery.
With previous releases on Gestalt Records, Gunfinger Food, Eluize’s Night Tide and Further Electronix - alongside his own Bars of Beats and PSU projects - we’re super delighted to now officially welcome him to the Erbium family! @erbium-records @bobo-102

Another one from Tread Records’ upcoming 4-track VA - ‘Sonar Searching’ by Manchester-based producer and DJ, Reynes.  
This high-energy, UKG-inspired groover was born out of the depths of lockdown in 2020, at a time when many of us were yearning for the dance floor.

You can catch Reynes’ mix series, Park Watch, on Melodic Distraction Radio, where he showcases music from emerging DJs and producers from the UK and further afield.

'Sonar Searching' is now available to download via Tread’s Bandcamp and to stream in all the usual places.

Skins continues forging his own path with a new label celebrating the uplifting and futuristic sounds of jungle, with a four-tracker featuring tracks with early support from Katiusha, Tañ and Frazer Ray.

Whilst some will know Skins from his days DJing regularly around Oxford, his run of self-released white label techno EPs or last year’s underground hit 24 Hour Dub, more recently he has turned his attention back to the music which made him fall in love with it all in the first place:

“I vividly remember the effect that the futuristic sounds of 90s jungle and drum ‘n’ bass had on me as a kid, hearing snippets of tracks in video games and later stumbling across artists like Alaska, Future Engineers, Seba, Peshay and LTJ Bukem. After years engrossing myself in the cavernous spaces of dub techno, this record feels like a return to my roots, bringing my style into a new arena which still feels like home. The label will serve as an outlet for this and future collaborations with like-minded producers.” - Skins

Skins continues forging his own path with a new label celebrating the uplifting and futuristic sounds of jungle, with a four-tracker featuring tracks with early support from DJs at the leading edge of the new wave of jungle such as Tañ, Mixtress and Frazer Ray through to revered names like Paul Rhodes of 2 Bad Mice.

Whilst some will know Skins from his run of self-released white label techno EPs or 2021’s underground hit 24 Hour Dub, more recently he has turned his attention back to the music which made him fall in love with it all in the first place:

“I vividly remember the effect that the futuristic sounds of 90s jungle and drum ‘n’ bass had on me as a kid, hearing snippets of tracks in video games and later stumbling across artists like Alaska, Future Engineers, Seba, Peshay and LTJ Bukem.

The label will serve as an outlet for this and future collaborations with like-minded producers.”

Route R is the second track from the forthcoming inaugural release on Skins’ new project Sauce Direct Records. The label is set to draw from the sounds and energy of classic jungle, with an emphasis on colour, excitement and most importantly, fun.

The track opens with a pulsing, sparse and echo-laden drum pattern, which slowly fills out and is joined by an arpeggiated synth line pulling us along to the breakbeat section. From here we travel deeper, driven forwards by a powerful undulating bassline, until we are greeted by uplifting pads and layers of rich, emotionally charged harmonies.

After a brief moment lost in space, we are plunged back into the bass and breakbeat groove for a few more minutes of heads-down action, before a familiar synthesiser line brings us back home, from which we set off, but somehow different…

Next up on Expressions is one of our all time favourite people, and a marvellous DJ. Gibbin has been with us since the beginning, and impresses us each and every time we hear him play. He has leant his avant-garde production techniques to 199's release catalogue, and he has provided flawless sets at parties back in Leeds. We're very happy to welcome him to the series.

Size 13 is back with their second label release, a 4 track of dub infused electro from Just Blakey. Channeling influence from Detroit to Jupiter, this young producer has carefully crafted and sculpted his sound to communicate through interstellar frequencies. The result is a crisp, spacey EP that will no doubt ripple through club systems.

Building suspense through robotic voices (created on the speak and spell featured in E.T!), squelchy synths and punchy drum beats, the EP shows off the maturity of Just Blakey's sound. Expect to hear more from this producer in the future!
