After moving from Hong Kong to Melbourne I became acquainted with the label Efficient Space. I found one great discovery after another as I collected their releases, including the music of Andy Rantzen. I was intrigued by his sonic landscapes and the depth and texture of his music, so I got in touch with him about doing a Friendly Mixtape. 

Andy's not a DJ, so instead of doing a mixtape himself he sent me some of his tracks for me to put together. My mix of his work spans the period 1991-2021 and features selections from his solo material and collaborations with Sudmalis and Rantzen, Itch-E & Scratch-e, fc europa, Boo Boo & Mace and Trancendental Anarchists.

Another RUBBER TIJD, and this time with sonic explorer, producer and live performer Marco Segato. Operating under various monikers (La Serpiente, MS and Narvalo), we had the pleasure of him opening our first event at Garage Noord under his original name. This recording is a section of what you missed out on a stormy Thursday in November.

RUBBER TIJD with Marco Segato

Enjoy this recording of New York City's GROOVY GROOVY party head honcho "Akanbi" and his unique style of DJing recorded at Weird Science during one of the coldest days during winter 2024. Intentional blend of freak-out boogie music, sensual rollers, whip-crack bangers, insistent percussion, afro-beat goodness, deep thumping low frequencies & slow-burning experimental descents.

Clips of Holy Tongue's "Ambulance" 7"  available to buy at https://dubwisevinyl.com

The mighty Holy Tongue return with their first ever 7" release and I'm pleased to report it's an absolute corker! Atmospheric and brooding A-sider "Ambulance Dub" feels like the mystical union of a deadly under the radar 80's digi-dub with a long lost sci-fi synth soundtrack. Sleng Teng meets Bladerunner Uptown...Flip it over for "The Bigger Tutti" which is classic Holy Tongue at their very best capturing the stripped back DIY energy of post-punk delivered alongside a heavy as lead dub bassline which combines with the characteristically incredible percussion to create a mesmerisingly deep and funky groove. Two complimentary yet contrasting sounds from one of the most exciting purveyors of experimental dub around.

Next Wave disregards the cold weather and embraces the warmth of dub as the fat basslines envelop your ears. Hiss, echo, and record crackle disperse into the atmosphere as hardcore and punk slide in to finish off the show in angry style.
