Mutable Mercury - Lost In Chaos EP

New Delhi-based producer @mutablemercury brings his first EP, Lost In Chaos, to Scuffed Recordings.

Mutable Mercury is the solo project from Mukul Juneja, who first appeared on London-based label Scuffed in 2022 with his single Vexation.

Now returning with a three-track EP, ‘Lost in Chaos’ sees Mutable Mercury further building on the sound he has been developing on his past releases with labels like Reality Club and Shubzin - leaning heavily on electro, techno and dubstep influences with a heavy focus on percussion and bass weight.

Opening with the title track, Mutable Mercury establishes his sonic palette from the outset, with driving, high-energy drum work alongside staccato vocal chops.

8Bit Nasty dials back on the tempo, putting the spotlight on a glitchy, warping bassline.

The release culminates with Take Blue In, the skippiest track of the release which draws equally from breaks, electro, and 2-step UKG.

My debut EP, Lost In Chaos is out now on @scuffedrecs! These tracks were built on the foundations of a single percussive sample with heavy focus on warping basslines, high-energy drum work and staccato vocal chops.

Rising UK talent @dyslecta arrives on Scuffed Recordings with three new hybrid UK techno tracks, backed with a heavyweight remix from @henzotrax.

On his ‘Eating Woodlice’ EP, Dyslecta continues his artistic growth with three tracks exploring different BPM ranges and production techniques, fused by his love of techno and other UK dance music genres.

Describing the EP as being ‘testament to what you can do with the most limited amount of samples and kit’, the release sees Dyslecta unifying a broad range of production techniques while maintaining a recognisable sonic backbone throughout.

London-based producer Dufraine kicks off 2024 on Scuffed Recordings with three new stomping hybrid electro tracks on his Uber XL EP.

Continuing the sounds Dufraine has explored on previous solo efforts for labels like APE-X and Fantastic Voyage, and his Pleasure Corp project alongside Shawn Cartier, the Uber XL EP features three darker, harder-edged tracks taking in influences from artists like Miss Kittin and The Hacker alongside sounds inspired by UK bass, dubstep, and techno.

The EP kicks off with the four-to-the-floor aggression of ‘Wake’, driven along by a warping acid bassline. Up next is the title track, which features robotic vocal stabs and skittering synths. Closing out the EP is the most electro-influenced track of the release, ‘The Feeling’, centered around a powerful breakbeat backbone and eerie vocal sample.

INGI returns to Scuffed Recordings with four new intricately-crafted club tracks on his Shaker EP.

Icelandic-born, London-based INGI first appeared on Scuffed in 2022 with his Fade EP, an exploration of breaks, percussion and bass weight which saw support from the likes of object blue, Surgeon, Breaka, and Manami.

Since then, INGI has honed his skills as an artist and DJ, as a co-founder of London party and label Elastics, and resident at “your favourite festival’s favourite festival” Floorless. INGI’s sound is a love letter to the London and Manchester scenes that he came up in, flitting between UK club influences but impossible to pin down to one sound alone.

Returning with the Shaker EP, INGI traverses genres and tempos effortlessly - from the sub-heavy opener Hoggs, to syncopated roller PPI, percussive breaks on the title track and ending with the throbbing, high-paced Maurier.

@krotone brings his unmistakable brand of garage and breaks to Scuffed Recordings on his 16 Deck EP.

Leeds-based producer Krotone is one of the most unique producers working in garage and breaks in recent years, with releases on labels like DEXT, Of Paradise, and DPR, alongside appearances at Outlook Festival and some of his hometown’s most prominent venues.

Krotone’s sound flits between 2-step UKG and breakbeat with a healthy serving of groove, bass weight and dub influence. Produced on a hardware setup, Krotone’s sound is shot through with an upfront rawness that makes his tracks stand out in a crowded field.

His 16 Deck EP features three new tracks, from the the lurching swing of opener ‘Watch’, to the satisfyingly wobbly title track, and closing with the taut, stuttering 4x4 and spaced-out dub chords of ‘Original’.

Los Angeles-based @maudevos brings their eclectic, nature-inspired Unearthed EP to Scuffed Recordings, backed by remixes by Leese and Tryphème.

Produced following Maude’s move to the small mountain community of Topanga, California, the Unearthed EP fuses electronic production with organic textures, featuring recordings and samples from the sonic atmosphere of their new home - providing a distinct textural backdrop to the project.

The title track opens the release, featuring vocals from singer/songwriter SOLARPLEXXUS (@user-488803487), who bonded with Maude over their shared love of nature. Up next are ‘Nocturnal Catharsis’ and ‘Indigo Orb’, which juxtapose layers of tension-building instrumentation with moments of all-out club release.

@l-eese provides the first remix on the release, with her re-imagining of ‘Nocturnal Catharsis’ - a workout in intricate drum programming and layered bass fusion from the Brussels-based artist.

Closing out the EP is Parisian producer @trypheme, whose deep, contemplative remix of ‘Unearthed’ is the perfect ending to a varied, genre-defying release.
