Introducing Hizuo and AWZ, Japanese music producers hailing from Kyoto, Japan. Together they co-run the party and collective AFFECTION, where they showcase musical styles, from underground to overground, and aim for free expression that is not bound by genre or borders, presenting a wide range of club music.

Hizou, who crafts a unique sound rooted in bass music while incorporating elements of Jungle, UK garage, and Electronica. His meticulous sound design and emotionally impactful compositions have drawn significant attention in the music scene. ‘Penthouse’ draws influence from 90s dnb, labels such as Full Cycle and V Recordings.

AWZ, another young and upcoming music producer from Kyoto, Japan, specialises in playing across House to Bass Music, with UK Garage at the core. He has released tracks on labels such as SPRAYBOX and London's Dredcol. Also published mixes for Brussels-based UKG label Bumpy Ride and Tokyo's Grow The Culture. His track ‘Late Night Kyoto’ is a breakbeat infused stomper, with classic vocals and rave stabs throughout.

Following up their recent streak, 1TK and Operator P return with "Wiggly B Ice" a playful yet dangerous roller written under the influence of a Nic addiction and a need to move. Swerving low-end pressure, elastic grooves, and percussive flair make this one a dancefloor disruptor. It’s weird, it’s wobbly, and it slaps in all the right ways.
