Slippery Sounds 001 w/ SSSLIP + Osc Kins

Scuffed Recordings co-owner Wager (@wagerdj) debuts his new alias on the label with a four-track EP exploring his breaks, electro and bass influences. 

London-based Wager (formerly known as High Class Filter) has spent the past few years building momentum as a DJ, with festival appearances at Glastonbury and Parklife, gigs across London and the rest of the UK, and a long-running residency on Reprezent Radio. 

At the same time, he has built an in-the-know following with his productions, which have appeared on labels like Moveltraxx, Futurebounce, and Four40, and seen support on BBC Radio 1, 6Music, Rinse and NTS.

As one-half of the Scuffed Recordings team alongside Ian DPM, Wager has built the label into one of the most respected UK underground electronic labels of recent years.

The ‘Vector’ EP marks the first release under the Wager alias, and marks his first return to Scuffed since the Elemental EP in 2018.

Across four tracks, Wager explores a blend of club-focussed influences – from the acid-tinged electro slammers ‘Bump’ and ‘Vector’, to the sludgy ‘Acetic’, and rave-meets-grime workout ‘Prismatic’.

Out April 30th.

Liam Doc, a staple in the Scottish scene and resident at the Glaswegian institution Sub Club, brings a record of throbbing techno minimalism to Shall Not Fade. Having rubbed shoulders with some of the biggest names in Scottish dance music from Denis Sulta to Big Miz, Doc’s sound is cool, collected and distinctively UK.

Energetic A1 ‘Jamie Said It Was Wicked’ combines earworm distorted bass triplets with atmospheric steel drums, its strong rhythm dragging you into ‘Icarus’ which puts on the breaks in a silky laidback house roller. Doc turns up the nostalgia for A-side closer ‘2008’; the wide bassline giving a classic noughties feel but with touches of chillout room memories in the smooth piano stabs. On the other side, percussion dominates. ‘Looks Like a Mad Place’ is proper eyes down business, a drum-heavy uk techno number with dubwise bite. More playful percussion on the hard drum hybrid power of ‘Thyme Bridge (Part II)’, but the crowning jewel of the record is the closing track, ‘A.S.M.R (I’m Trying)’. Delving further into pivotal forward club sounds, Doc creates a darker spin on uk funky elements with an ominous, vibrating bassline and ear tickling percs. The EP builds from a ravey sound palette into dark and raw british techno at its finest, proving Liam Doc is a master of his craft.

K-Toi Trax EP drops Friday 14th May.

GAB MIX 032 welcomes one of our favourite UK crews, @kulturacollective . Through a consistent stream of high-quality releases, compilations and an enormously varied mix series, launched more recently, the Manchester-based imprint have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the UK’s electronic community. Pushing a more experimental take on breakbeat, electro and UKG styles we can’t wait to see what Kultura have got in store for the rest of 2021. 

For their GAB guest mix Kultura have stuffed an incredible range of music into 70 mins. Featuring UK funky, big juicy breaks, electro and even closing with some juke and footwork, this isn’t one to miss. 

Big love to the legend that is Ian Munro for this tasty collage representing the Kultura crew.

Her Dub Techno Tool h/m (Vief Records)

For GAB MIX 035 we’re absolutely delighted to present the one-and-only Mixtress! Pushing for the hardcore agenda down in London, Mixtress has been absolutely killing it this year with stunning mixes on FOLD, Threads, Netil, 1020, Aaja, Subtle, Mode, foundation fm, Reprezent, Rinse and a recently-launched residency on Balamii. As well as this, Mixtress continues to inspire and support a range of female and non-binary DJs and producers through her highly admirable work as Sisu’s creative lead. 

In her guest mix for GAB, Mixtress showcases her eclectic collection with an outstanding mix dominated by electro but featuring drill, grime, breaks, bashment, jungle and hardcore - pretty much everything under the sun! 

We’re extremely gassed that Mixtress herself considers her GAB mix as one of her all-time favourites. Booked in at a range of mad events this summer, including Das Booty’s takeover at Venue MOT Unit 18, promoters best be hitting up Liquid Paradise to secure bookings with one of London’s freshest DJs! Word on the street is that Mixtress may even be making an appearance in Leeds sometime soon!

Big up to the absolute hero Ian Munro for coming through with the tastiest artwork once again!
