There was a low end rumble as the music began to trickle downstairs and into the basement. Gathered in the cellar there was a small crowd, amidst the fog and dust they began to dance in time with the flurries of percussion and the twinge of electronics which echoed deep into the night. They would be here for a long time, a unit inspired by the deep, sophisticated roar of each element. Their feet would move in time, back and forth, again and again. 

Flippen Disks is a new record label to emerge from Amsterdam, the imprint is run by Monty who also appears on the debut EP. He delivers one solo track and one collaborative effort alongside PTDD for a release which is distinguished and intelligent. The EP features forward thinking percussion and danceable material whilst is also hugely listenable and unique. 

This one is special.

I would like to acknowledge that I dig, play and broadcast on stolen land. I'd like to give thanks to the Gadigal people of the Eora nation for allowing me to do so, and acknowledge all elders past, present and emerging across this beautiful country.

Sovereignty was never ceded. This always was and always will be, Aboriginal land.

Julius (PTDD) is a producer and DJ based in Utrecht, The Netherlands.  He has a background in music production and composition, studying Composition Electronic Music at the University of Arts in Utrecht (HKU). His distinctive sound can be described as psychedelic, rhythmic and melodic.

His carefully spaced compositions are distinctive and recognizable, taking inspiration from jazz, IDM, House, UK Bass & Techno.

As a DJ, his sound can be characterized as fluid: weaving together a wide range of rhythms, textures and pads and avoiding a standard 4 to the floor approach.

His sound is developing in a symbiotic relationship with his audio-engineering work and cooking projects. This cross pollination results in new sound-design techniques he incorporates in eating experiences.
