Hyperobject Serving Suggestion Mix

Hailing from Joburg, South Africa, and now based in Bristol, UK, @lo_chi is DJ and producer carving out a unique space in the realms of bass music and techno. His sound, defined by deep sub-bass, sharp textures and dark atmospheres, showcases a mastery of syncopation and hypnotic rhythms. With contemporaries like Henry Greenleaf, Sub Basics and Javano, along with support from influential figures such as Lamont or Yak, Lo Chi is an artist deserving greater recognition in the current electronic music landscape.

“Dead Man’s Switch” marks Lo Chi’s sophomore EP and his debut solo release on Dead Trax, following contributions to the label’s various artists compilations. Featuring 5 original cuts that range from 120 to 130 BPM, DDTX005 is a testament to his creativity and versatility, reflecting the innovative spirit of Bristol’s underground sound.

In Lo Chi’s words, “this EP concludes some moments within my continued practice in production; Some inspired by trips to Berlin’s club scene, some galvanised by mid winter days inside with cyclical rhythm. Each track feels to be a principal example of its palette, extended over 6 years. Love to Henry, Ed, Dean, Benji and Tony for their continued faith.”

Pre-order DDTX005

Lo Chi "Dead Man's Switch EP" (DDTX005) *clips*

https://shawcuts.bandcamp.com/album/raw-courage
Title: Raw Courage
Artist: Kakeru
Label: Shaw Cuts
Cat.: SC022
Date: November the 7th of 2025

Tracklisting:
A1: Quagmire
A2: Mirror Forest
B1: Swaying
B2: Broken Bubbles

Infotext:
There is a new artist from Japan followed by the name Kakeru who is giving his Shaw Cuts debut with „Raw Courage“, telling the story of an emperor besieged by an army who then entrusts his child to the Black Dragon Clan heading off to a dangerous journey.
An attempt to usurp the Ming Emperor's throne by the sinister martial artist simply known as „old monster" and his armies results in most of the palace being massacred. „Quagmire“ and its vibrant percussive pattern carried by a heavy broken kick and a driving bassline help the emperor’s infant son to escape and put in care of the Black Dragon Clan.
En route they are attacked by government forces but rescued by two knights. They prove to be a valuable addition to the party in subsequent encounters with their pursuers. „Mirror Forest“ and its laid-back atmosphere, mysterious vocal snatches and shining pads carried by an expressive drum pattern help the travellers parrying every sneaky attack on their journey.
Trying to head to the White Dragon Clan in order to seek for help, the squad has to masquerade and take several battles, always protecting the baby in tow. The razor-sharp percussions, corrosive bass and thrashing kick of „Swaying“ tremendously supports the warriors in each fight.
Finally they make it to the temple of the White Dragons where they show their Black Dragon seal as a sign of solidarity. But all of a sudden the mood changes. „Broken Bubbles“ and its menacing atmosphere built up by a monstrous sub bass, reduced but impactful drums and subtle synth elements underline the potential threat. Did they walk into a trap? Is there enough energy left for one big fight? Raw courage is vital now.

[SC022] A2: KAKERU - MIRROR FOREST

For OUEMS Mix #019, we have Oxford-based Wotunaz and Sines of Change as part of their newly-formed collective Port of Call, providing us with a lush 60-minute mix that glides through syncopated, atmospheric percussion and immersive reverb-soaked ambience. 

The mix reflects the duo’s move to deep psychedelic dance music - shifting away from their previous focus on high-energy 90s UK dance and Global South genres, and the banality of the many mainstream contemporary electronic spaces. Sines of Change, founder of the Oxford club night ‘Gro-FM’, infuses into the mix his passion for soundsystem music and leftfield electronica, while Wotunaz aims to emulate the campfire drum-circle sound of underground, journey-focused European hubs like Scandinavia and Spain. The result is a firmly club-ready piece which maintains an intricacy and textural hypnoticism equally suitable for thoroughly enjoyable headphone listening too. 

We are eased into the set with the seamlessly interwoven soft synth flourishes of Etch’s ‘Liz’s Track’ and Synkro’s ‘King’s Chamber’. The off-beat drum textures of DJ Ojo slice through the ambience, before Olorun’s ‘Unexpected Pearls’ steadies the beat and guides us softly but surely into club territory. Picking up the tempo with Beatrice Dillon and Call Super’s seminal Hessle Audio release ‘Fluo’, the set settles into an ambient techno groove, peppered with dub-inspired, heavily processed vocal interjections and asymmetric percussion hits.

As we hit half-way, the soaring, delay-riddled arpeggios of Cameo Blush introduce a new movement, defined by more melody, intense percussion, and timbral variety. Tension builds big-time with the rolling snares and fizzing synth design of ‘Cave Walk’ by Soreab, before a 303 acid bassline from contemporary electro legend James Shinra creeps in, subtly hammering away, a nod to the duo’s 90s-inspired dance music background. In the set’s last quarter, the dub influence persists while the ambience returns to the fore, skipping through the minimalist, haunting tones of Sub Basics’ ‘Basement’ before the fluttering melodies of Yushh guide us out. Port of Call bend and warp its pitch, ending the set on that haunting, ambient note so central to the duo’s refined sound. 

The pair, among others, are launching a new project out of Oxford/London focusing on this more long-form, subtle and hypnotic dance music. Tired of increasingly commercial EDM, their aim is to build a passionate and like-minded dance floor, and their OUEMS mix is a perfect showcase. Producers and DJs - message to get involved!

Hedchef - There Did Emerge An Unreality [YUKU]

All Centre welcomes Helsinki-based producer Rizio to the roster for his debut on the label. After a breakout 2024 with his first EP on No Snakes and a recent standout appearance on YUKU’s Fresh Faces compilation, Rizio continues to refine his intricate, bass-heavy sound on the Hyperobject EP. Rizio merges geometric rhythms, warped textures and sub-aquatic bass with vaporous tonal movements.

Digital Spell sets the tone with discordant drones and pounding kicks, quickly locking into a mechanical yet hypnotic groove. Metallic accents and glitched textures scatter across the surface. Dubbed-out bass hits enter the mix as the track strikes a perfect balance between a heady atmosphere and a physical dancefloor cut.

The title track Hyperobject lurches forward with a mangled vocal loop and surging bassline, rising to feverish intensity before collapsing into a skeletal, broken-beat rhythm. Rizio’s dynamic sound design creates constant pressure and release, making this a devastating peak-time tool.

Closing track Channel Code emerges with a sub-heavy, atmospheric intro before launching into a high-tempo electro-inspired groove with dubby snares ricocheting through the mix. As the track morphs and grows, an elusive vocal hook slowly surfaces, anchoring the track as it evolves into a shadowy, late-night driver.

Hyperobject is available across all digital platforms from October 17th.

Upbeat dancehall feel. Track 4 from the recent 6-track EP "Snaggage".

Crossfire  [ XII.25 mix - short version ]

Un nuevo podcast construido desde las texturas crudas del minimal, el techno hipnótico y los grooves rotos que laten en profundidad.
Un viaje controlado que avanza por la tensión, los microdetalles y los patrones que se sienten más de lo que se ven.

Groove firme, melodías que giran en bucle, atmósferas que se expanden y se repliegan.
Influencias de Bryz, Origin of Time, Pattern Tusk, Minube, Zeken y Etzu 

Intención, foco y un rumbo claro.
Una sesión donde cada transición respira y cada capa encuentra su lugar para empujar la energía hacia adelante.

Un descenso más profundo, preciso e hipnótico.

Bravu is the project of Uruguayan DJ and producer Nikko Hofmann, active since 2009 and rooted deeply in the underground scene. His artistic vision has evolved over the years around a sound aesthetic intimately connected to the dancefloor.
His style is a constant exploration of the edges of minimal, hypnotic techno, microtextured house, and melodic landscapes—each set unfolding as a sensory journey through precise rhythms and immersive atmospheres. Bravu doesn’t just mix music; he creates a unique sonic language where futuristic sounds meet the purest essence of underground clubbing.
Influenced by visionaries like Ricardo Villalobos, Zip, Onur Özer, Thomas Melchior, [a:rpia:r], Rhadoo, and Sonja Moonear, he has shaped a sound universe that is subtle, organic, and deeply cerebral. His selection flows between minimalist elegance and the hypnotic energy of refined techno—always with one ear tuned to what’s next: new textures, synthetic grooves, razor-sharp basslines, and an experimental spirit that never loses touch with the pulse of the dancefloor.
Bravu is a rising name in the Latin American electronic music circuit, known for sets that stand out through narrative coherence, technical sensitivity, and a direct connection with the crowd. His approach avoids easy formulas—it's about invoking mental states, driving movement, and holding the floor in a continuous loop of tension and release.
