Dekmantel Festival 2022

Sully & Coco Bryce at Dekmantel Festival 2022

Sometimes there are moments and sets in London clubland where the stars align, certain artists are in the building and the energy is LOOSE.

Skee Mask at the HVYWGHT 4th Birthday back in February was one of those moments.

Following on from a South London Digital Mystikz homecoming at peak time to a fever pitch Brixton Electric. Playing a dubstep party for the first time, alongside legends of the scene - Skee Mask proceeded to play one of the hardest sets we’ve ever seen, effortlessly mixing classic grime into dubstep into techno into breaks and beyond.

A flurry of MC’s were in the wings, none of whom were booked to host the set but had no choice but to jump on. The energy was infectious - Flowdan B2B Trim B2B Chunky B2B SP:MC over Skee Mask on the Sinai Soundsystem. We can guarantee you will never get this combination of artists on a set EVER again.

Listen back as we jump into the set roughly 10 minutes in. Flowdan has just jumped on and Trim is lurking.

Explosive productions, ferocious basslines and frantic beats are on order for this week's mix from forward-thinking junglist Tim Reaper, a London DJ, producer and record label founder at the top of his game. His selections are futuristic, paying homage to the roots of jungle; equal measures soulful and serious, playful and mischievous.

Coco Bryce: 7" Special - January 2023

Tracklist: https://mixmag.net/feature/riz-la-teef-interview-dj-mix-in-session

@riz_la_teef goes In Session

"I recorded this mix at home on two old Mackie monitors, my DJM-600 which is like an antique and two XDJs. I wanted to play mostly new stuff and I felt like I wanted to represent my newer sound and what you’d expect from me in a club environment. It starts with the piano, and sort of progresses and ends with the four-by-four dubstep stuff, and then piano again with the half-time jungle bits."

As Printworks prepares to bring its tenure to an end, the beloved London venue is calling upon The Hydra for a last hurrah event series, the Teachers, paying homage to the clubs and spaces that have come before. FWD>> – the seminal club night that needs little to no introduction – is one such space being showcased.

The final mix in this week's FWD x The Hydra series comes courtesy of DJ Oneman, whose classics-filled set is designed to take you back to the dimly lit basement of Plastic People – and to a period "between 2004-2008ish" if we're being precise – with staple tracks from DMZ, Skream and D1. "FWD>> was the true essence of what a club night should be," says Oneman. "I’m thankful to have been a part of it."
