Welcoming Eora based DJ, producer and ridiculously good skateboarder Charles Fester aka @commandd to Passing Notes, who joined me in the studio for episode 168. Another talent emerging from the golden lockdown era of producers, Command D is an up and comer deserving of a direct line to everyone’s watch list. Drawing creative inspiration from the space between the digital realm and the natural world, Command D’s deft productions showcase a sophisticated balance between driving deep tech, rhythmic complexity and hypnotic atmospherics. His immediately captivating debut EP ‘Clone Dialogue’ recently graced the catalogue of bass-leaning label @bodypromise. A four track journey which introduces listeners to Command D’s already established sound - expect contemporary takes on the classic sounds of dub techno, tech house, bass and electro.

Black Seven Music welcomes REIN.  for a slick and rhythm driven two track EP, Sunrisin’, delivering a deep yet energetic sound perfectly crafted for late night sessions and peak time floors alike.

Opening with the title track ‘Sunrisin’, REIN. blends punchy percussion with hypnotic grooves and rolling low end warmth. Layers of intricate rhythms and atmospheric textures glide throughout, giving the track a sophisticated yet undeniably driving edge.

On the flip, ‘Soul’ takes things deeper, leaning on moody basslines and shimmering percussion while weaving in soulful vocal elements for a raw and emotive finish. It’s a cut built on tension and release, showcasing REIN.’s knack for blending underground grit with subtle musicality.
