OBR002 - Rhyval - Footcell (PREVIEWS)

The thin winding streets were adorned with all manner of trinkets, gadgets and souvenirs; you could get everything you needed from these stalls, if you were willing to look hard enough. Without a plan of action, you're guaranteed to get lost, to come away with things you never needed, to spend money you didn't intend to. Haggling was the name of the game, and once mastered, this place could become your oyster.

After the success of their inaugural release from Breaka, Manchester-based platform Off Beat follow up with their sophomore release from one third of the brains behind the label, Rhyval. With nods to early Hessle Audio and Swap 81-backed Ramadanman records, percussion and bass play a central role across the three tracks, which is translated through warped subs, crisp snares and rumbling bass.

OBR002

PREMIERE: Rhyval - Hassle [Off Beat]

Fun, percussive, bass laden heat, reminiscent of early Ramadanman with those vocal chops!

Off Beat return with their third release - a mind-bending three-tracker from label-head Ryvahl.

Kicking things off is title track ‘Protopattern' - an off-the-wall sub-bass nose and chest tickler with heavy, scattered drums that are modulated to destruction.

'Send Signal' continues in the same vein with more of the classic sound design of Ryvahl’s previous work. Swift, choppy, UK sounds combine with juke hits, drum machines and dingy reverbs to expand the stereo field into a 4D landscape.

Closing out the release is the playful 'Blacklight'. A drum tool that would appeal to fans of Pearson Sound and early Night Slugs records. Big tip!

OBRMIX002 - INGI

The start of our re-booted mix series comes from a very close friend of ours: INGI. Having made several appearances across Limbo Radio & Reform Radio, INGI has certainly proven his worth throughout the city in recent years. 

For his next party however he will be returning back to London for the launch of his label "Anti-Pattern", bringing some of our favourite Manchester based selectors down to Grow Tottenham. 

Full steam ahead for a 2 hour swirl of electro, techno, jungle and UK heaters.

OBRMIX003 - KNOHTS

We are delighted to have local hero, KNOHTS, taking us through for our third instalment in the mix series. This time round we are greeted with an hour of techno, electro and darker UK cuts.

Having just passed the one year mark with his imprint ‘Lunar’, it’s fair to say that there is plenty more to expect from the young selector over the coming months. 

Rumour has it that a few early demos have been slipping through the nets as of late… make sure to keep an ear to the ground…

OBRMIX004 - NAPOLEON

OBRMIX005 - BENCA

We are delighted to have Benca join us for our fifth edition of the mix series. As one of the brains behind record label 'Jerk It' and Manchester's beloved party 'CULT', Benca is no stranger when it comes to wielding a pair of 1210's. 

The next hour guides us through the full spectrum, with a strong club focus in mind. Expect twisted electro, punchy breaks and a sprinkle of no-nonsense club hitters.

OBRMIX007 - ACRUX

As someone who has been a firm favourite of ours over the past 6 months, we are delighted to welcome Acrux to the mix series, with a carefully curated hour for our 7th instalment. With his current home in Manchester, and his roots in London, Acrux is part of a new wave of Manchester artists, responsible for throwing parties under the platform Raigeki, alongside Porter Brook and Hector. These guys sure are ones to look out for.

Plenty of fresh and exciting sounds on this. Strap in, listen for yourselves and come up with a genre later.

The Startup

OBR001 - Breaka - The Startup (PREVIEWS)

First a party, now a record label, Off Beat (@offbeatsound) tap into a rich vein of British sonic history. Their inaugural release is an embodiment of their love of UK Bass culture and promises a productive future.

London-based Breaka (@breakaleeds) has been making waves since 2018 and shows no sign of slowing down. From his releases on Desert Sound Colony's Holding Hands imprint and the impressive work of his own label, to his contributions to the rambunctious Leeds party Stretchy Dance Supply.

'The Ambush' is full of jungle-inspired sound design. With its 130 bpm think-break drums, drifting birdsong samples and snarling 808s, the track is reminiscent of early Good Looking Records 12"s.

Out October 2nd:

PREMIERE: Breaka - The Ambush [Off Beat]

The phone had been ringing off the hook all morning, each time he chose to ignore it. He'd debated unplugging it at the mains but the repercussions would be even worse than they already were. He knew that not answering wouldn't help him in the long run, but right now he couldn't face it. He would continue to live by the notion that what he didn't know couldn't hurt him.

Manchester party Off Beat make their first steps into the label world, launching a new platform to share their love of UK bass culture. For the inaugural outing, they've enlisted the talents of Breaka who's previous releases for Desert Sound Colony's Holding Hands, his own Breaka Recordings and Leeds' Stretchy Dance Supply have caused quite a stir since 2018. Titled The Startup, the two-tracker moves from UK bass grooves and warm subs on the A Side to jungle-inspired breaks on the flip; a perfect indicator of what we can expect from the newly-founded imprint in future.

PREMIERE: Breaka - The Startup [Off Beat]

OBRMIX008 - HAMMO

After a short break away from the mix series, HAMMO has put together a broad spectrum of sounds to get us back in gear.

OBRMIX009 - ANOMALIES

The ninth instalment in our mix series comes from Anomalies, who has been making moves across Sheffield and Manchester with the likes of the Raigeki crew. Tune in for an hour of warped drum and bass, alien mode dancehall and half time pressure.
