Two of the best to make that deep sound of dubbed out techno are back once again on TMC, celebrating the 10th release on our 10'' vinyl series with two tracks of the finest order.

A. Akcept - Obsessive 

This piece is a proper low end wobbler, summoning mediative head nodding to keep you riding the swung out drums and delayed chords. 

B. Versa - Ice 

One of our favourite tracks from Versa, we are very happy it's finding a home with us on TMC010! Deep down,  Ice blue techno sound.

TMC010 | Akcept - Obsessive / Versa - Ice | 10''

Few names shine as brightly in the cosmology of dubwise bass music as that of V.I.V.E.K. From releasing absolutely groundbreaking tracks for the better part of 20 years primarily on his own System and VIVEK imprints, to curating and hosting his legendary System nights, to bringing so much rising talent to light, it’s honestly difficult to imagine the last two decades of UK and global sound system music without him. 

For ZamZam 96 V.I.V.E.K went straight to the bedrock of sound system music and delivered a power-stepper of galactic proportions. 

“Illusions Dub” opens with starkly heavy valve bass and a punishing kick, leaving little doubt where this journey is headed . Richly adorned with neck-snapping percussion, industrial snares, post-punk atmospherics and a gorgeous melodic figure, the tune employs classic 90s digi-dub principles while feeling like a message from a gloriously human -or post-human- future. 

“Illusions (Raw Dub)” runs rugged through the desk in fine style, with barely restrained feedback, phasers, and deep space echo and reverb ripping open shimmering holes in space-time for a truly cosmic Part 2. 

Strictly limited to 850 7” vinyl copies for the world- no digital, no repress. Mastered by Precise. Two color screen print by Polygon Press. Releasing August 30th, 2024. Retail or wholesale inquiries: zamzamsounds@gmail.com

Dark Symphony is a dark yet elegantly unfolding cinematic composition that thrives on tension and emotional depth. Its sound design feels made for motion picture: slow-building dynamics, gradually layering textures, and subtle dramatic crescendos draw the listener into a vivid world of imagery.

The track evokes powerful visual emotions — it could easily underscore a post-apocalyptic landscape, a tragic hero’s journey, or a deep inner transformation. The mix provides a wide spatial dimension, allowing each element to breathe while maintaining a cohesive dramatic flow.

The composition reflects professional cinematic sensibility — reminiscent of Hans Zimmer or Jóhann Jóhannsson — yet with a distinctly modern, personal touch. Dark Symphony stands out as an atmospheric score that balances beauty and darkness in perfect harmony.
