EM + STAV - 04 September 2025

CAIV deliver rigorous, syncopated machine rhythms on the Lives EP from U.S bi-coastal collaborators Israel Vines and Camile Altay, following on from their formidable debut EP Dwellers on Tresor last year.

Lives is four finely calibrated cuts riding a diverse tempo range, unified by rich harmonics and resonant percussive layering over veiled bass textures, where distortion becomes detail.

CAIV - Lives

Pugilist - 7 September 2025

Following releases from Lurka and Keplrr, GRACE has something more introspective in store. The label's fourth outing is a tasty collaboration between Bristol's @georg-i and Lisbon-based lyricist @olderbrotherolderbrother. Their 'Warm Skin' EP is a journey through slick, hi-tek bass and trip-hop injected with gritty vocal poetry.

Both artists are hitting their stride. Since 2021, georg-i has gone from strength to strength, his razor-sharp slappers appearing on YCO, FELT, and more recently, as the inaugural release on CCL's Subglow. Meanwhile, Older Brother's otherworldly vocals have featured on Timedance, Metrist's SOSOSO, and now a full release with the iconic imprint Numbers. 

On this EP, a soundworld emerges that recalls the dark intimacy of Massive Attack's Mezzanine and the beat science of Samurai Music. These two artists' combined talent makes for beautiful, moody listening - a third space between wonder and cynicism.

@pessimist

For this week’s episode of CENTER BOOTH we welcome Pessimist: a Bristol mainstay, Ilian Tape affiliate and drum & bass innovator whose shadowy take on the genre often blurs the line with techno and dark ambient. Known for stark atmospherics, rolling percussion, broken beat wizardry and an uncompromising ear for an ominous mood, Pessimist has been a star attraction at cutting-edge events and clubs around the world for close to a decade, from Draaimolen to Club Night Club to Tresor to M.O.T.

His CENTER BOOTH set sinks its teeth in stealthily. The opening rolls in like fog — bass-heavy and understated — before giving way to tougher, militant steppers and half-time passages that shift the ground beneath your feet, slowing the body down without ever breaking the flow. There are no cheap tricks here, no fireworks or easy drops — instead the intensity builds little by little, drawing you deeper into a tunnel of bass and rhythm.

By the final stretch, the momentum softens into foggy ambience, a release that feels earned after the hour’s relentless grip. Minimalist and crushing, haunted and propulsive, it’s a set for locked-in heads and late-night spaces, where subtlety hits harder than spectacle, and the sound of an artist who understands not just how to move a floor, but how to reshape the room around him.
