Gabber Eleganza launches his label Never Sleep with Multo Crudo by London via Brazil & Russia producer Lizzitksy. The label is “an organic step after seeing the original Gabber Eleganza archival project grow into a multi-platform endeavour”, with a remit to showcase new and old artists that symbolise not just rave and post-rave culture, but a wider DIY aesthetic. 

Lizzitksy’s debut release draws from a disorientating suite of tropes - blasts of harsh noise, hollowed out sub-loaded kick drum barrages, digitised 90’s Italian Trance melodies, sped up reggaeton snare rushes & post-hard core vocal manipulation. Despite the range of elements in play, there is still a clear aesthetic red thread present - the rhythmic building blocks of the various genres referenced are sliced, distorted and re-arranged but never to such an extent that their dance-floor rending capabilities are compromised, whilst occasional flashes of melody and feedback laden shrieks help unravel each track. 

“Dark Millennium DJ Tool” deploys slowed down noise-charged kicks and ear piercing synthwork before switching into an 8-bar grime breakdown, whilst “Untitled EX4” takes the 150 BPM+ broken hardcore rhythmic template currently being established by the likes of Slickback and E-Sagglia and perforates it with howling feedback and Shackleton inspired percussive work. “Beef6” and “Bad Vein” melt power electronics fuelled drums into a post Latin-Perreo mis-en-scene – with “UMS303”  and “Video Green” providing moments of melodic introspection.
