The night was young as they cruised through the backstreets of the downtown neighbourhood. This is where they felt safest and like they could be their utmost self. There were few prying eyes back here and those who dared to wander these alleyways were long beyond saving anyways.

They held hands together as they marched beneath the faint glow of streetlight, music blared from a small boombox perched upon the shoulder of her close friend. She smiled as she caught his eye and winked kindly.

Nothing could beat the echo of drums in the street, the feeling of his hand in hers, it was magical.

If only every night could be like this.

Kito Jempere has collaborated with Adam Evald and Antoha MC on a sleazy disco inspired cut reminiscent of the downtown New York era. This is then beautifully crafted into a further whirlwind by Lipelis, who relishes in the rise and fall of percussion and luxurious vocals.

«As a label, we are specialists in musical diversity. With our newest installment of the annual System 108 compilation we present you two parts of hand picked creative output by our friends, residents and dearest guests. Curated by the artist Ira Bespalova, the concept of both parts is simple and deep: the good, the calm, the kind is part 1 and all anti-heroes, filthy electro-armored jams is part 2. All together - another twist of the planet, another beat of our big heart, that became shelter and home home for a whole new tribe. It pumps, it creates, unites and warms up, kicks it real hard, no matter how tough it is.

Part 2 is enhanced with hard sounds from the all-stars of the main-floor rave crew via System 108. Kovyazin D meets Ace Blunsh, Errortica x Raw Takes (!), TRUST TRUE, DIRTY GLASSEZ w/ N95 - core residents are here! Extra by Locked Club (!!!) and super special by Any Act, RLGN and skrpump. The very real avant-garde of rave in Russia atm.» – System 108

System 108 - «Drama» Compilation

FULLJOY - Без оглядки

Jenasi is the project of Dima Kublashvili from Belarus. Everything started with a craving for rock, but where Dima came from, there was no context or audience for it. The real revelation was the acquaintance with Skrillex - at that time there was a real world boom of electronic music without borders, which could be made from a simple computer, and move the huge crowds from the stage, as at the most punk concert. Since then, Dima has mastered sound synthesis, mastering and mixing from scratch to confidently deliver his own signature blend of dubstep, techno and bass. Active search for like-minded people and releases on labels in Belarus and CIS countries (Gestalt, Svodka, MosoblElektro, DISCO TEQUA) led Jenasi to Moscow, where the producer finds even more friends and industry: System 108.

Jenasi lives for partying, and the project is inspired by nature, space, as well as the theme of the afterlife, hell and gothic. ‘Split’ EP came out as versatile as possible, each track not only has its own story but also its own audience. Featuring Maksimovna, Trust True, Local Code, Anonymous, Borbo, omut manit stitch the listener across the spectrum of expectations. From slow thrillers, to rave electro bangers. There will be something to put on the radio, something to drop on the main and something to just sing along to.

tracklist:

1. Jenasi - Poison
2. Jenasi, Local Code - Prove It (feat. Maksimovna)
3. Jenasi, Trust True - Damage
4. Jenasi, Anonymous - Jaga Jaga
5. Jenasi - Aura (feat. Borbo, omut manit)
