Cape Town-based talent Mew Zu continues his rise with this new offering on standout South African imprint Rubricate Records, helmed by now-national talent Dopplershift. Following tasteful, well-received drops across the likes of Subplate Recordings and Saturate Records, 'Provence' represents Mew Zu's return to Rubricate after the standout 'Microdose' EP. Here, he again cements his self as a vital aspect of the thriving South African scene, which just keeps delivering on every level, be it musical, cultural or societal - it's a special place to be, and to witness. As a track, 'Provence' takes the form of an eerie, methodically-paced roller which excels in each of its perfectly curated facets, namely its instrumentation, intro, bassline and atmospheric potential, all fusing together to create a techy, minimal cut that hits explosively hard in the subs. This one is sure to rattle the cabinets.

emplate - Cleveland, Ohio

justtodd@gmail.com

emplate first heard the sounds of Jungle/Drum & Bass in the summer of '96 and was instantly enchanted. A drummer, and heavily influenced by hip hop, metal, industrial, classical and jazz; emplate believes drum and bass embodies everything he had been listening to and loved before it.

In '99 he knew that listening was not enough. He needed more than mixtapes and parties to get his fix. Inspired by the DJs around him and his love for DnB, he dedicated himself to seeking knowledge, selection and skill. emplate soon became respected both technically and for his sets that interweave neurofunk and darker, minimal DNB tunes that are often peppered with liquid dancefloor tracks if the mood is right.

In 2006, emplate became a resident DJ at the former weekly and nationally recognized DnB event "in:verse". Always interested in moving the scene forward, emplate helped develop The Cleveland Drum n Bass Coalition and (216)BASS, both local platforms that Northeast Ohio DnB heads used as a vehicle to further their careers. In August of 2014, emplate joined up with Rockers Music. Excited about having a DnB label out of Cleveland, emplate spearheaded the local launch of the Rockers 175 label with the “Step Inside” & "Kismet" monthly events held at the Beachland Ballroom, bringing in names such as: Lenzman, Doc Scott, Total Science, Zero T, The Prototypes, Crissy Criss, DJ SS, Aphrodite, Dara, AK1200, Dieselboy & more. After stepping away from the label & the turbulent life of event promotions, he focused on being the best DJ he could be...taking his mixing to new levels & determined to prove that he's underrated, not only in his hometown & state, but the U.S. as a whole.

For two decades, emplate has been known for his diverse selection of up to date releases, promos & unreleased tracks & plays accordingly to timeslot, crowd & vibe.
