Pain Management welcomes London cult favourite DJ ojo, who arrives on the label with a hazy three tracker of trademark nether zone system music. On his most dubbed out full length to date, ojo span’s the full emotive spectrum of dub sonics with a range of both the eerie and more tender expansions of low end atmospherics, the resulting 12” equally suited for the club and the journey home alike.

‘Tongue Tied’ opens the record, a lysergic offering from the darker edges of dub music. A slippery fugue-state hit of narco-ambience built around a crooning, intelligible vocal refrain and chest shot sub weight. A real nightfall system pusher built to simmer in the early hours. It kicks off the EP on an amorphous, hypnotic note that sustains throughout.‘Oil Dub’ sinks deeper into the fog, melodic kinesis and expansive delays upholding an underworld of feedbacked percussion and tongue in cheek sub motion; a seven minute sound bath of ambiguous dub ASMR.

The B-side balances out the darker strains found on its counterpart with an overtly tender digidub closer. Clocking in at almost ten minutes long ‘Cloud Suck’ is a nebulous bliss of perpetually ascending late-summer warmth. The kind of liminal dream-state embrace that you wish would never end. True to the name, it evokes tender, dusk and dawn hued moments, a quiet ride-home flash of introspection on the way to or from some pursuit of meaning. Pain Management essential right here.

Limited run of 200 hand-stamped 12” records available now.

DJ Ojo - Cloud Suck

Poorly Lit with @sleek-fata  invited by @notmass

Sleekfata, head of comicsansrecords and LYL Radio resident, moves fluidly across genres. Through his Cremation of Care show, he blends psychedelic electronics, jazz, punk, and trip-hop with a refined aesthetic. On the dancefloor, his sets dive into deep dubstep, sci-fi DnB, and psychedelic tribe, delivering hypnotic, dub-heavy energy."

EXA-TERRA with Subsism - 18 Avril 2025

The 42nd podcast in our collection is another birthday tribute — this time celebrating @taannatalia’s milestone 30th trip around the Sun. It opens softly, unhurried, gently pulling you in deeper with every passing minute.
An intimate, emotional journey — unabashedly tender. Ambient textures drift in shyly, gradually building tension until they finally unfold in full force, releasing all that built-up energy.

Rap glides in quietly, bedroom pop peeks through the curtains, while dub and experimental sounds leave a lasting imprint. Nature’s sounds flirt with guitars and percussion — sometimes in a whisper, sometimes with a stomp. It’s Natalia in a form we don’t often hear — but one that, as she says herself, resonates most truthfully with what’s playing inside her right now.

@taanat, thank you for this story!

Radio Mumdance - S04 - E09 - B2B mi-el - 30 April 2025

CCL launches their subglow label with Rebuild, an EP from Bristol club provocateur @georg-i, featuring remixes from Metrist and the elusive B. McQueen.

After years of lighting up the dance floor at subglow and serving as a cornerstone in club sets, Rebuild is finally getting an official release to the public. georg-i’s previous releases on Perko’s FELT and aya & BFTT’s YCO imprints have established him as an incendiary club constructor probing the fringes of contemporary dance music. The release will be accompanied by poetry from subglow co-conspirator and artist Nadia Marcus, co-founder of Berlin experimental publishing platform TABLOID Press.

Informed by the restlessness of living in an apocalyptic present and the desire to rebuild the broken systems surrounding us, Rebuild is influenced by math rock's feverish and cataclysmic energy, eschewing conventional club BPMs in favour of dizzying tempo trickery and polymetric wizardry. “Torn In Two” gets off to a slow, chugging start, with raucous synths riffing over emphatic drums, but soon swirls into a juddering, pointillistic frenzy. “Bridging The Gap” is a cathartic shout, an acidic crescendo whose triplet meter offers tempo-transitioning opportunities for adventurous DJs who don’t mind a bit of maths. “Communication” gallops along cathartically through ricocheting synths and drums, unfolding into a thrilling breakdown. On remix duties, B. McQueen re-imagines “Torn In Two” as a sultry, dubbed-out roller, charting groove across a heady plain, while Metrist’s ambitious rework of “Communication” amps up the tension and primes it for a peak-time dancefloor sometime in the next millennium.

music that makes subs glow. 

🔊 𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔮𝔲𝔢𝔢𝔯 𝔣𝔯𝔢𝔞𝔨𝔶 𝔰𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔡 𝔰𝔶𝔰𝔱𝔢𝔪 🔊



𝔰𝔲𝔟𝔤𝔩𝔬𝔴 personifies our desires for meaning outside a singular form, angles outside regimented pulses, breaking apart to put back together. 

Crashing through the ceiling into the sky, nestled between softness and roughness, where you start and where the world ends, flickered beyond the hegemonic download... a resistance against incessant categorization, beyond genres, finding meaning in the inbetweens. 

Bliss-textual paradigms bring us closer, unique velocities taking us deeper, tapping into our unfiltered potential in a fresh reality; objects at rest waiting for a chemical reaction, coming to life for an infinite moment.
