DJ Polo returns to Livity Sound with an EP that moves beyond the UK funky styles he established alongside Tribal Brothers on The Link Up EP in 2021. Through his productions and steady online radio presence, the Bristol-based producer has been flying the flag for lean, punchy rhythms with a low-end focus, but on If The Glove Fits Polo has branched out to explore different tempos and sounds taking influence from gqom, techno and Afrobeats. 

Much like his approach to funky, this isn’t a set of genre exercises but more a celebration of the shared qualities which bind together dance music from different parts of the world. The result is four sharply-defined club workouts unique to DJ Polo that balance tension and release, flair and subtlety and a consistent physical weight true to Livity’s emphasis on soundsystem suitability.

*PREMIERE* R Cole - Silphion

On ACEN 058, label boss DJ Pitch teams up with Berlin-based artist MLE to gether an EP of energetic, stripped-down dance floor cuts. MLE, Rhythm Section affiliate and Refuge Worldwide resident, presents her first released productions; DJ Pitch puts out his first offerings on the label since 2022's Scared. 

Wicked Cool Mega Safe ramps things up into a high-intensity groove. Whilst stripping things down to percussive basics, the track remains endlessly compelling, with forceful four-to-the-floor clap patterns surrounded by ecstatic snare rolls, percussive grunts and syncopated tom hits.

Los Angeles-based @maudevos brings their eclectic, nature-inspired Unearthed EP to Scuffed Recordings, backed by remixes by Leese and Tryphème.

Produced following Maude’s move to the small mountain community of Topanga, California, the Unearthed EP fuses electronic production with organic textures, featuring recordings and samples from the sonic atmosphere of their new home - providing a distinct textural backdrop to the project.

The title track opens the release, featuring vocals from singer/songwriter SOLARPLEXXUS (@user-488803487), who bonded with Maude over their shared love of nature. Up next are ‘Nocturnal Catharsis’ and ‘Indigo Orb’, which juxtapose layers of tension-building instrumentation with moments of all-out club release.

@l-eese provides the first remix on the release, with her re-imagining of ‘Nocturnal Catharsis’ - a workout in intricate drum programming and layered bass fusion from the Brussels-based artist.

Closing out the EP is Parisian producer @trypheme, whose deep, contemplative remix of ‘Unearthed’ is the perfect ending to a varied, genre-defying release.

Keeping things fresh, we celebrate the Medellín - Bristol connection with none other than Verraco. Sonic pipelines have been running with full force between our two cities for some time, and Breathe… Godspeed embodies a shared obsession for shaping futures and dancefloors through evocative club acrobatics.

Exploring the intersection between the sacred and the erotic, this four-track EP is propelled by visceral sound design, dipping into a variety of styles and paces.

Verraco constructs groove like no other: while covering mind-altering Techno to gut-punch bass music, he takes sheer dancefloor euphoria up to dizzying heights with a unique radiance.

DJ Plead, Phillip Jondo and Xzavier Stone join forces in a collaborative EP that not only signifies the birth of a profound friendship and creative alliance but also traces the roots of their interconnected musical journey.

Amity’s next outing is keeping it a family affair, with co-honcho Mulholland entering the fray. This follows a breathtaking EP from Elpac & Bristol royalty, Grove. Not to mention ‘that’ V/A last year, containing some of the best about (Cassius Select, Saskia & Pluralist, to name a few), the label is quickly establishing itself at the heart of a burgeoning underground scene.

Mulholland’s catalogue has flourished too, with stand out releases on imprints like Martyn’s 3024, CloudCore, Banoffee Pies & Woozy. This record however, feels like a significant landmark and perhaps his best work to date, all whilst being on home turf just makes it feel even more right. There’s a definite theme with serious sub-pressure laced through unique bass lines, shifting each track into a certified dance floor weapon. The EP doesn’t shy away from interesting perc work & clever sampling either, making it an extremely well-rounded release and another big step for Mulholland and Amity.

Grid is happy to release a summer anthem, the undeniable dancefloor filler ‘Dance Hall Again’, which sees lauded UK bass veterans DJ Polo & Breaka teaming up with the man, the legend Swordman Kitala !

DJ Polo and Breaka link up on production duties, crafting a perfectly executed Amapiano and Dancehall infused riddim. This bass-bin rattling production creates the ideal balance of dancefloor potency and an open canvas for Swordman Kitala’s killer vocal stylings to float on top with ease. Kitala delivers a fiendishly infectious hook on ‘Dance Hall Again’ with a relaxed swagger that ducks and weaves around gut-punching rhythms to devastating effect.

This original track comes with two remixes, by UK Funky legend Bakongo (aka Roska) and French producers Kaval & Stacktrace. Bakongo flips the already dancefloor-ready track into an irresistible and undeniably UK percussion workout destined for day-party hysteria, proving once again that this veteran of the scene has and always been the master of his genre. If Bakongo’s remix is the day, Kaval & Stacktrace’s epic re-imagining is the night… with the Toulouse based producers flipping ‘Dance Hall Again’ into a hot-blooded and atmospheric late-night mover that is guaranteed to bewitch crowds.
