Atlanta resident Nikki Nair invites you to join his new 4 track EP on Astrophonica - 'Renormalization Support Group'. It's a place where we can share our experiences via the help of Nikki's special 'not quite sure what you call it' bass lead Electro Breakbeat programme.

Track one is 'Plug' - An uptempo low slung booty shaker which will have sound engineers scrambling at cables and faders trying to work out wtf is going on. We've all been there so let's talk about it. 

Track two is 'Where Are U' and encourages us to ask ourselves that question through the exploration of full speed Breakbeat Electro. If we know where we are, we can begin to look into where we are going. Probably the dance floor.

Track three is 'it's NP-Complicated' which sets out an uncomplicated blend of bubbling bass and simple sympathetic drums, providing us with a network to feel more empowered and to build a sense of community. 

Track four is 'Donut Time' - Well done for finishing the course! You can congratulate yourself with a donut full of squelchy acid jam, glazed with frosted pads and hi hat sprinkles.

“Together we can help ourselves be alone together.” - Nikki Nair

Nikki Nair - Plug

What began at the start of 2022 as an excuse to throw parties, book the DJs we believed in and curate memorable, intimate dance spaces for all has since evolved into much more than just that. Each of our residents brings something unique to the table and TUSSLE has become the means to which we can promote these qualities further.

@sinic_t has been producing for a number of years and in that time has explored a plethora of musical avenues. We are proud to present one such venture - a stripped back, breaksy edit of Beyonce's 'Naughty Girl'. This is absolute club tool and peak-time SINIC set staple is free for your own enjoyment via the link below!

We asked Om Unit for some more info.. here's what we know.

"Phil called me up in the early Spring telling me a load of tall tales about apparently having been abducted by aliens. I didn't really know what to believe because the stories were all pretty weird tbh and I can't really go into it here but I'll just say he's soundtracked some of what happened in the form of a set of DJ tools for Astrophonica' This is going to be the third and final Philip D Kick release for Astrophonica to complete a trilogy. What the future holds who knows!"

STEREO 45 // 006 - MELBA & E-KITTY

A.Fruit

We close out this roster with an audiophile, an explorer of the universe of sound, and an eager researcher of the relationships between music and people. A.Fruit’s music reflects her inner world and emotional interactions with the outer world.

Anna Fruit was born in 1989 in Moscow, which was still USSR at the time. Her passion for music began in childhood at school, she played the guitar and sang her songs to friends. In 2008, while studying sociology at Moscow State University, she discovered Ableton Live, and it changed her life. She started making music and decided to get a second education as a sound engineer to improve her craft. In 2012 Anna graduated from the University and simultaneously completed her certificate in audio engineering. Then, for some years she worked as a sound technician on TV channels, in parallel continuing to produce electronic music. 

A.Fruit found her 160 bpm-focused sound somewhere between her longtime love of DnB, jungle, hip-hop, and especially footwork. Her professional music career began in 2015, fast forward to 2023 and she has built an impressive discography with 8 EPs and a multitude of original tracks and remixes on compilations worldwide. Her music has appeared on labels including YUKU, Cosmic Bridge, Med School, Teklife, Rua Sound, Sequel One Records, Black Marble Collective, and plenty more. On tours, Anna delivers a blend of 160-170 bpm from footwork and jungle to future beats and halftime.
Outside of her music, A.Fruit creates sound effects and music of other genres for PC games (Gremlins, Inc., Spire of Sorcery, Pathfinder) and provides digital mastering in her home studio.

The Hamburg - Berlin connection is strong at DARK REAL DARK. Not only because many of our members are living in these two cities, but there's also constant interaction and conversations between crews and artists from the German capital and the northern bass hub. 

One of the interesting new faces of Bassmusic there is Sarah Q, who blessed us with a stunning mix for our podcast series.

Music has always fascinated Sarah endlessly - ever since her brain started forming thoughts and maybe even before that. Her first rave experiences were key moments and she immediately knew that she wanted to DJ, but it took some years to move from the dancefloor behind the decks. It all started with her and DJ Babyblade (fka Claud) playing a back-to-back set for the capsule livestream. Shortly after, Freddy Kuno gathered Usus, Selsela, and Sarah Q to form the crew KINETIK SESSIONS. They started throwing small parties at Astrastube and also had slots at Waagenbau and Fusion Festival. In recent months, Sarah represented the crew at renowned clubs like Uebel & Gefährlich, Golden Pudel, and Südpol among others.

Her podcast for DARK REAL DARK features a mixture of deep and dubby afrobeat tunes with a dark tone running through the whole mixtape. Get ready for some future shit from Hamburg!

Cicely w/ Melba - Subtle Radio - 21/04/2023

Music Producer, DJ and Samsara Beats (https://soundcloud.com/samsarab) label manager. HNGVR, or simply Rob when he isn't on stage, has spent several years developing his own sound and playing his sets in festivals, clubs and renegades from his native island, Sardinia, to cities like London, San Francisco & Oakland. HNGVR’s music is difficult to classify in a specific genre but Halftime, Footwork-Jungle & Turbo-Breaks are his main influences and inspirations. He finds himself comfortable on that thin line in between energetic dancefloor music and introspective beats. His passion and dedication to music and all the connections that music creates, pushed him to create in 2017 his own label Samsara Beats largely supported by the underground bass music community.
