Rinse FM Podcast

Metalheadz on Kool FM with Sonar's Ghost, Outrage, Acid_Lab & Scale - 27 July 2023

With releases on labels including Critical, Deadbeats and Noisia’s VISION, to name but a few, @gyrofieldmusic has fast become one of drum & bass’ most sought-after artists, though her sound stretches in numerous directions. Her detailed, gnarly yet emotionally vivid productions are a breath of fresh air in the scene, and continue to evolve sonically alongside their own personal growth. 

Here, alongside a bass-charged and genre-jumping 90-minute Recognise mix, she shares her story with Becca Inglis

Tracklist & interviw

Recognise: gyrofield

Last month, with Goldie's guest curatorship of Resident Advisor, we focused on the history of one of the most important music genres and scenes to come out of the UK: drum & bass. With this RA Podcast from Kasra, we switch over to the style's cutting edge. He's probably best known for his long-running Critical Music label, whose name is instructive. You'll find some of the most essential, crucial drum & bass of the last two decades through its 20-plus year-old back catalogue.

As a DJ and producer, Kasra embodies everything great about Critical and its approach: drum & bass with flair and personality, forward-thinking while staying true to the roots of the sound. The kind of music he plays is wide-ranging, but it usually leans towards the tight and minimalist. The basslines stop and start like stuck engines, drums hit with the mechanical precision of a Swiss-made watch, the MCs move with a tactical flow. Kasra's RA Podcast is a blend of new and old cuts from the likes of Skeptical, Halogenix, Break and the boundary-breaking Ivy Lab, plus a few cuts from the man himself.

Though initially formed around much of the classic Moving Shadow crew, its focus is set firmly on the future, releasing cutting-edge music from artists old and new alike, and aiming to create a sustainable model for all.
