🙅🏾‍♂️🙅🏾‍♂️🙅🏾‍♂️

post-apocalyptic gathering of efforts through mutual agreement and excitement about coming together as a way to heal and dream of sweeter futures, by sending and receiving vibrations.
after long periods of physical distancing and alienation, intimacy can feel so mythical, our places foreign, our selves unreal.
we find common comforting ground in hidden gems - xenoliths - unique sonic landscapes binded and wrapped together in hopes of radical embrace.

Bassbin 23 - I Found You (Hardhouse Mix)

Not a Pessimist

A very long year after the Six Rooms EP, Nico returns on his imprint Akita Club with Everyone Sees But Only A Few Know. A new exercise in density and space.

Drums that twist, dart, and lurch forward or sideways, but never backwards. Percussion that behaves like a once-living organism, its reanimated fossil unearthed from the future.

How articulate can you make the machine?

Everyone Sees But Only A Few Know

PREMIERE: Nico - Plana [Akita Club]

There was a strange feeling lingering in the air, an eerie sense of tension which hung thick and left a bitter taste in the mouth. Why would it be that there was so much stress? Where had this come from? Why now? What caused the pinch?

He sighed as he wandered through the quiet city, it was dead, the people of the week had left town to return to their families leaving nothing but empty streets and still puddles.

There were no sirens, no cars, ho beaming headlights. Yet still it was noisy where he was.

Preference releases a new EP on Ayeland – a futuristic extravaganza which lends a nod to the early days of Bass music alongside the deconstructed improvisations of the genre which later followed suit.

PREMIERE: Preference - Pinch [Ayeland]

All Centre kick off the new year with a two tracker from label mainstay Holloway. Following a busy 2023 for the London-based artist, holding down a residency on Rinse FM, tearing up parties around the world and launching his own label Waylo, Holloway starts the year as he means to go on with two incendiary club tracks.

Beans opens in atmospheric fashion with lush pads and dubbed-out sirens held together by enthrallingly syncopated percussion. The structure then strips down to allow a wistful, jazz-inflected theme to come to the fore, deftly complimented by a bouncing, descending bassline and a deep kick pattern. Lightly swung drums give an edge of UKG stylings to this deep, introspective cut.

On the flip Holloway ramps up the tempo with Trinco. Soulful chords fuse the sound of 90s DnB into precise, stepping percussion. The track launches into another dimension at the drop, driven by techy drums, growling basslines and warped vocal samples. The track breathes with the reintroduction of the atmospheric pads, before the bassweight emerges again with renewed force.

Beans is available across all digital platforms from the 12th January 2024.

You all remember 'Teachers' by Daft Punk, right? 

Sure you do, they paid homage to the acts that changed the game musically. A lot more music has been released since then and that's where Mumdance & Logos come in.

Source Direct, DJ Die, Fabio & Grooverider, Surgeon and James Ruskin are just a few of the artists that get a shout out in their homage to the original banger.

This version is a gnarly, electro excursion and appears as part of Mumdance's amazing, upcoming 'Shared Meanings' compilation which drops on November 23.

There's also a release party at Oval Space on the same day featuring Speedy J, Doc Scott b2b DJ Storm, Dopplereffekt (live), Lee Gamble and of course, Mumdance & Logos.
