2019-2021 DJ Sets

London duo @sicariasound has reinvigorated dubstep by pulling from every side of the 140bpm spectrum. The pair of Ndeko and Imbratura are longtime friends who have an unspoken understanding when it comes to DJing together, as was frequently demonstrated at their residency for Mala's Deep Medi. They also run their own Cutcross label which can serve up sounds that reference anything from breakbeat to grime, rave to bass. Despite this success - and the news this week that they are to put out Binate, their first official EP - they have also announced that they will disband the project at the end of 2021.

Thankfully, we will always have the mix to come back to, because it is a perfect embodiment of their sound. Well informed but never too serious, it takes in ice-cold wobblers as well as industrial strength steppers and skeletal, minimal dubstep sounds that hark back to the golden era. The whole thing is stitched together in a way that shows up the contrasts of light and dark, spaciousness and intensity and ensures you remain fully locked in.

YESYES RADIO Episode 21 Feat SUBstance And Rich Nines

Originally from Toronto and San Francisco respectively, Pink-E & Brane (@richnines & @@b-lux-1) met at a rave on a ganja farm on Salt Spring Island, BC in 2015. 

Quickly bonding over our mutual love of classic breakbeat hardcore, jungle and dnb, we began sharing a studio in downtown Vancouver in 2019. 

Having fine-tuned our b2b DJing dynamic over many epic twitch streams during the pandemic,  we jumped at the opportunity to play IRL at  @donna-dada 's Jungle Bells birthday party hosted by @blondtron in West Vancouver, Dec 2021.  The vibes were merry and bright, and we just kept playing, and playing, and playing...

This session is our longest vinyl b2b recording to date, and very much represents our signature sound of classic hardcore jungle party vibes. We've been cherishing these favourite records for years, and hope you enjoy listening as much as we did dusting them off out of our crates for this epic mix.

Leftlow’s ‘Distractions’ is a thought-provoking Mini LP which is the London-based duo's largest body of work to date and sees them welcomed to dBridge's iconic label, Exit Records.

Dedicated to the late Bailey Churchill, these tracks are filled with prophetic sounds alluding to an apocalyptic destiny, evoking deep and complex thoughts about the world around us.



Designed to be experienced in a club setting with a focus on low end and intricate percussion, the fluidity of these tracks and underlying theme throughout make for an equally enjoyable and intimate "headphones on" experience.



From the industrial, dystopian hard-hitter "Piston's" to the dreamy, euphoric "Thoughtful," these tracks shine a light on a slightly different production style that Leftlow has not yet explored in previous releases. While staying true to their recognisable style, the drum-fueled "Green Eyes" and mind and body twisting "Queasy" push boundaries in the unexplored territories of their sound. This is a must-listen collection of tracks that will provoke the senses.
