UK dance music has always been defined by its eclecticism. And few artists capture that better than @yazzus-1. Both her sets and her productions are turbocharged tornados that collide rave, breakbeat, techno, jungle and footwork. They are playful and knowingly over-the-top, take in plenty of bootlegged edits and have landed her on labels like Diplo's Mad Decent, Mall Grab's Steel City Dance Discs and the legendary Hospital. She co-runs her own Rave Litany party and has DJed as part of the 6 Figure Gang so basically never takes her foot off the gas, whatever she is doing. 

It is no surprise then that this week's mix is one of the most hard-hitting we have had in a while. Everything is turned up to 11, from the fast mixing style to the faster beats. It explores all kinds of techno from bass heavy to twitchy, raved-up to old-school nose-bleed. Later on, there are warp-speed explorations of juke, footwork and club that leave you gasping for breath but desperate for more. Strap in!

Next up in our mix series is our very good friend and collaborator from Copenhagen, @mamasnake - co-founder of the notorious Amniote Editions. In this mix they're showing their peerless and sublime palette, full of sleek techno, slithering psychdelia and full blooded grooves. Thrilling and primal soundscapes transffering into a kinetic energy bomb. Get ready for this 72 minutes seamless journey of soaring vitality.

Here are some important words from Mama Snake, to reflect on, when listening to this mix:
"Hi world,
As you are listening to this, the people in Gaza are listening to the sound of genocide as the terror state of Israel carpet bombs hospitals, mosques, schools, refugee camps and other clear cut civilian targets while the elected leaders of the western world watch in silence.

Let it be known that in November 2023 when this mix came out more than 11.000 Palestinians including more than 4500 children were slaughtered by the fascist Israeli regime in the live streamed attacks on Gaza. At this point in time, it’s been more than a month of full-scale intentional genocide and documented war crimes and the western world has yet to condemn it and take action to push for ceasefire and negotiations to end the cycle of bloodshed due to the decade long violent occupation of Palestine.

To everyone following and listening to this, please speak up, read about and share what is happening, write your government representatives, attend protests, make noise and choose humanity and call for an end to this. Ceasefire is only the beginning; the violent occupation and apartheid must end. Enough is enough.

This mix is intended as some sort of despair release - at least this is what that sounded like on the day of recording for me. It’s giving “angry, but hopeful”. Use it to fuel the outrage you should be feeling and channel that into action.

No one is free until we are all free. Viva Falastin."

FOLDs co-creator and technical wiz, have respectively become the driving force for UNFOLD; a haven made for their fiercely loyal and diverse crowd. With over six years of playing together, their high-energy styles compliment each other and produce a uniquely signature sound that is impossible not to move to. 

Ahead of their second all night long tomorrow night at FOLD - For Tapes #128 they bring us a recorded mix from live from UNFOLD LXXI.

A drive to better the experience of all they lay their hands on bleeds into their playing style with the booth often sharing more in common with a boxing ring; the pair sparring back and forth, introducing their own styles whilst moving in a mutual direction that can only be learnt with time. 

Voicedrone’s bass-heavy sound lays the groundwork to their sets and then shatters it, effortlessly moving between breaks, techno and jungle, whilst James Newmarch counterbalances him with his playful, yet unforgiving, fast tracks that leap between breaks and techno, being as infectious in their energy as they are with their positivity.
