Rival Consoles performs live at Le Guess Who? 2022 as part of the program curated by clipping.

About
Throughout his critically acclaimed fifteen-year career, London-based producer Ryan Lee West has reinvented himself with each lauded release. His work is bound, however, by his increasing drive to humanize sound. His music has evolved from his challenging early electronic output to more conceptual and metamorphic sonic theses, such as 2020’s ‘Articulation’ and last year’s ‘Overflow’- an emotional exploration of technological advance’s consequences to human nature. 2022 saw his much-awaited return with his eighth release via Erased Tapes, titled ‘Now Is’.

Recorded at TivoliVredenburg’s Ronda on Friday, 11 November 2022.

Rival Consoles - Live at Le Guess Who? 2022

Chemistry

Drone#03 Wake Up

A full four hours of the main man Caribou, recorded live at The Cause last summer. What more could you want to chase the blues away?

Dan Snaith is one of the most enduring figures in 21st century electronic music. From early records as Manitoba, to 2010's Swim (which RA called Album of the Year in a runaway vote), to Grammy-winning 2014 hit album Our Love, as well as ongoing collaborations with Four Tet and dance floor excursions under his Daphni alias, the Canadian DJ-producer is a fixture for a reason.

Ahead of a Caribou (Full Band) tour across the UK and Europe starting in February, we can now let loose the full four hour recording of his RA Live from 2024. 

In it, Snaith goes in hard, rolling out bassy, wobbly and fidgety heaters, running through everything from speed garage and UK funky to Afro house and anthemic deep house—and even a sprinkle of Stevie Wonder for good measure. It's what he truly does best: bangers on bangers (and more bangers).

RA Live: Caribou – The Cause, 2024

Guys, we need to talk - since vinyl wizard Dahmar's flawless mix is still orbiting the Olganitz clouds! 

What felt like a mix-up was actually a perfect match: he played right before Prosumer - their resemblance had people guessing and confused the WWW but you should know by now and follow Leipzig's precious treasure!

With the second edition of our Various Artists series, we’re making a clear statement: this is where uncompromising energy meets pure artistic individuality. For this compilation, we’ve brought together a selection of producers whose sonic identity reflects the essence of our label – raw, distinctive, and full of expressive power.

Various Artists 2.0 unfolds like a journey through experimental acoustic worlds. Fast, driving beats provide relentless momentum, while dark, detailed atmospheres build a dense, almost cinematic tension. Punchy, precisely crafted kicks cut through the soundscape, giving every track an immediate physical intensity. Subtle dystopian undertones weave together, forming a universe of sound that captivates, challenges, and lingers long after the final note.

Every track on this compilation stands as a unique piece of art – an individual statement bearing the unmistakable signature of its creator. That’s the heart of our label: highlighting character, celebrating diversity, and embracing true uniqueness.
UNIKAT Various Artists 2.0 is more than just a release. It’s a manifestation of vision, creativity, and a sound that refuses to compromise.

I was honored when I was asked to play Garbicz Festival 2019. I had never been but heard many great things about it.

Arrived basically straight from the DJ booth in Frankfurt on the site with no sleep and while probably more than half of the people were still doing what I needed, sleeping, I could sense the love and passion that was put into this festival and what had possibly happened over the past 3 days in this beautiful space while walking around exploring most of the corners quickly and grabbing several excellent coffees along the way.

Donna Leake opened the floor at 1pm and possibly doesn't play what a lot of people would expect on this stage , but I absolutely understood why she was booked for this spot. Her musical knowledge is stunning. The vibe she set was brilliant.

Easy to say that I was nervous as f*&$ to continue after her but I think I managed to set the pace for the artists to continue after I had finnished. And hell yeah, that stage was going mental a few hours later. Top!

Since it was recorded, I decided to upload the first hour  (some things should be experienced live) and I hope you enjoy!

Peace :*
