Usual set up this month, me for the first hour skirting across all things bass and UK techno, little bit of ambient/atmospheric stuff too. Had a lot of fun with this one, covering quite a lot of ground in terms of what was on my USB and playing tunes at all the wrong tempos. Sorry Dual Monitor for playing Level Up about a third as fast as you're meant to.

And then taking over for the second hour, delighted to be able to share with you an hour long mix from Berlin based, 4 person collective: Poems. Formed in 2022, they’ve recently picked up a head of steam curating their first party at Berlin’s OHM night club with Phil in the maze and Cassius Select on the billing. I was first introduced to poems via Derive – an incredible DJ in her own right, someone who can (and does!) literally play anything, all with relative ease. As a collective they're really challenging the norms of Berlin, flirting with weird UK Bass, techno and breaks all on the more experimental side of the spectrum.

Made up of German quartet derive … genus Aix … pesadj ... and dypere, they’ve come together to create a beautifully intense wormhole of a mix.
