Few people have explored UK dance music from as many angles as Om Unit. This was writ large across his set, as the Bristol-based DJ, producer and educator treated the Siren stage to bags of excellent house, jungle, dubstep and more.

Om Unit B2B Simon Scott @ Club Cosmos, Leeds (19/03/23)

Once upon a time, V.I.V.E.K Sharda was unhappy with the sound at UK nightclubs and parties—sound that he felt couldn't capture the deepest, truest vibrations of the music he wanted to play and hear—so he just made his own sound system. (Naturally, he called it System.) That should give you an idea of how seriously Sharda takes his wubs and his sub-bass, and if you have even a passing interest in UK sound system culture or dub's crossover with dance music—including, yes, dubstep—then you've probably heard of V.I.V.E.K, or at least heard one of his chest-rattling records.

Along with producers like Om Unit and Kryptic Minds—both of whom feature in the mix below—Sharda has never been one for following trends or concerned about scenes. Instead, he's fully devoted to the pulse of dub and the luxury of bassweight. He's put out slow but steady stream of ultra-heavy releases on his own labels System Music and VIVEK, and now he's on a mission to change perceptions of what 140 BPM music can sound like. That's what you'll hear on his RA Podcast, a meditative and occasionally tectonically-shifting mix that highlights dubstep, dub and its many offshoots—not just staggered drums and subterranean low-end but smooth swing and soulful melodies, too.

Wreaking havoc on dance floors across Europe (in all of the best ways), we're gassed to share this mix from Nala Brown ahead of her appearance at Outlook Origins this summer; Colossal sounds throughout with hefty sub-heavy selections, mangled breaks and all that good stuff in-between.

"As I was preparing for my guest mix for Outlook Festival, I couldn't help but imagine myself dancing under the warm sun in beautiful Croatia. With that vision in mind, I curated a selection of my best breaks and added some fun edits in between to create a mix that will hopefully trigger some nostalgic feels for everyone listening - Nala Brown"

Nala joins us as part of the Keep Hush takeover on the beach and if this mix is anything to go by, it's guaranteed to be a lively affair!
