The Winter solstice is here. Things are cold and long since motionless in Mother's Nature's frigid north, but between the frost in the air and crunch of the snow beneath our feet, magical things are always happening. Harrop, BC's very own Howl is acutely aware of that magic flowing through all things, even in the coldest of seasons - she works with it, every day, both within the world of music and beyond it. Arriving at Sub Chakra HQ's inbox at the year's 11th hour, her 79-minute mix of pure bliss is rife with future garage moods that both elevate the soul and contemplate on the nature of our being. It all starts at the heart, and radiates outward like pure light, reaching every sense and garnering a wondrous state of unity and cohesion. Truly, if these frostbitten weeks have got you feeling cold inside, cozy on up with our last mix of the year and have a read about Howl's thoughts on music, the magic needed to host an impromptu festival, and her work as a facilitator of constructive plant medicine work and consciousness expansion

Dillard brings a surreal LP to Gravitas Recordings April 14th 2023.  Full of organic textures, trippy sound design and a calming but upbeat feel, this release speaks for itself and brings out something special for anyone.  Dillon always puts so much effort into his releases and the listener’s journey, this time speeding up the tempo and diving into new territory in a flawless way.  With massive support on all his recent releases, he has gained a strong following of listeners patiently awaiting his next masterpiece.  Each release has so much intention and breaks barriers in the electronic and bass music community.  Dillard stated “It was a very cathartic experience being able to pour so much experience & emotion into this album, but then again I try to put just as much effort into all of my releases :)”

Cubic Nest opens up with beautiful strings and an organic soundscape that continues over heavy bass for a perfect downtempo start to this journey.  Botany Agent continues this sound with added ethereal vocals and a driving kick and drum pattern to build the energy, creating an epic build that teases something big coming and perfectly setting up the title track.  Garden Mother takes this energy and quickly drops into a catchy beat that is impossible not to move to with perfect guitar plucks and foley, this track is captivating and continues to build into a heavier second drop with added bass and scratching.  Way She Goes brings the energy back down with an epic intro of beautiful strings and Dillard’s signature sound, with a more glitchy feel that is somehow heavy and light at the same time.  Blue Flame dives into the calming side of the LP and continues the downtempo journey from the previous tracks, with flawless sound design and an enchanting soundscape.  Far Focus continues more glitchy organic sounds while creating more energy and tension with perfect breaks in the drums, he uses quick silent moments to peak the listener’s ear and give an upbeat feel to a trippy and laid back track.  Flight Plan opens with trippy old school samples of an LSD research experience, and builds into the heaviest drop of the release.  The track before perfectly sets up this and feels like the peak of the LP, while still maintaining the overall style and showcasing a heavier side of his bass sound design.  Technicolor further elaborates on this style with nostalgic vocal samples and a heavy but light drop that is more stripped back to focus on the groove, creating a perfect closing to this journey through Dillard’s sound.

Liquid drum and bass is a subgenre of drum and bass that originated in the mid-1990s. It is characterized by its atmospheric and melodic soundscapes, often featuring lush synths, jazzy instrumentation, and intricate drum patterns.

Liquid drum and bass became popular in the USA due to several factors. The underground rave and club scenes in major US cities like New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco provided a home for the genre. These scenes allowed artists to showcase their music and build a following. Liquid drum and bass combines elements from various genres, including jazz, funk, and hip-hop, appealing to a wide range of listeners in the USA. The innovation of liquid artists, who continually push the boundaries of the genre, keeps it fresh and exciting for fans.

Adam Hester is a resident for Upfront Range and hosts Konkrete Jungle Mile High alongside the original Konkrete Jungle New York resident Cassien, in the Lounge at the Black Box. It’s a night showcasing the best in proper jungle, from the classic anthems of the mid 90s on up to the new sounds of the 2020s. 
Adam has been DJing and collecting records since 1996 and specializes in music rooted in the Sound System cultures of Jamaica and the UK, spinning everything from reggae and dancehall to dubstep, Jungle, and Liquid.

Lyrics:
"We all come from the Goddess,
and to her we shall return
Like a drop of rain flowing to the ocean
Hoof and horn, hoof and horn
all that dies shall be reborn
Horn and vein, horn and vein
all that falls shall rise again
Sage and crone, sage and crone
Wisdom's gift shall be our own
Crone and sage, crone and sage
Wisdom is the gift of age"
