Async Figure is the ultimate alliance of UK based artists MM & Suda. The project was first unveiled with a live show at 2018’s Unsound Festival, inside a gutted industrial kitchen in Krakow. Their debut release Figure I features three high-intensity, melody-first club statements and marks the first in a trifecta of releases for Sea Cucumber.

Figure I

Async Figure - Panic FM

@perkopair's musical practice, similar to sound design, is built around and inspired by the natural and urban sounds that surround him. Navigating through the influence of his favorite genres, he offers sets that mix dancefloor rhythmics, UK soundsystem, UK garage, and ambient.

Felt with Fergus Jones & CCL - 24 Octobre 2021

Batu returns to his very own Timedance imprint with the long awaited follow-up to 2019’s False Reeds, this time with some of his hardest tracks to date.

Here he expands his aptitude for bass-heavy grooves, harmoniously bringing it together with FWD drum-craze and deep techno kinetics.

Meticulously crafted for rave efficiency, the EP shines with a dazzling sense of nuance, enriched by frisky and intoxicating sound design.

Unkey Ft Dread MC & Illaman - Dead & Bury (Keysound Rinse FM rip)

Hessle Audio mark the first release of their 10th year with a label debut from one of Bristol's finest. Head of the Timedance label and events series, Batu steps up with 4 tracks of driving percussion and oddball atmospherics.

Fresh from the success of his previous Durkle release 'Karate Club' on Definitions Volume 2 in April, label stalwart Unkey returns to the imprint with the 'Dead & Bury EP'.

The EP’s four tracks resonate with Unkey's signature dark, charged atmospherics, characterized by warping basslines combined with sparse echoing melodies. Title track 'Dead & Bury' recruits Dread MC and Illaman, to complement the murky vibes of the instrumental by firing warning shots at studio gangsters, declaring they don't want “any badman talk”. Rising Mancunian production star Hypho steps up on remix duties, ramping up the darkness of the original even further. The marriage of rolling varied breakbeats and deep sub bass showcased in both 'Waiting in the Wings' (featuring label boss Koast with a spooky cameo) and 'Epic East' illustrate how Unkey has carved a niche as a unique and forward-thinking artist, blending Bristol's sonic traditions of warped dubstep and sparse grime with a mis-spent youth listening to classic Metalheadz cuts.

With radio support from DJs as varied as Toddla T (BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra), Nemone (BBC Radio 6 Music), Dusk & Blackdown (Keysound/Rinse FM), Murder He Wrote (Radar Radio) and grime duplate king Spooky (Mode FM), 'Dead & Bury' is essential listening, both in the clubs or for those zoned out head-nodding headphone moments.

It's with real joy that we're able to press play on another epic journey from our favourite Aarhus collective, with Milán Zaks aka @s-p-o-r-t-s from the Regelbau crew stepping up this time for two-hours of mind massaging atmospheres, mixing sci-fi ambience with his signature floaty house, deep jungle and bass heavy UKG.

An incredible producer with an ever growing swarm of aliases, labels (No Hands, Help Recs, Regelbau) and collaborative projects to his name – often featuring alongside his brother Natal aka @central8000 – Sports is a music lover to his absolute core and a keen student of electronic music history with a brilliant ear for everything from ambient, dub, downtempo, pop and kraut to house, techno and the faster bass heavy sounds of dubstep, UKG, jungle and DnB.

We're lucky enough to get tastes across the entire spectrum in this mix, and checked in with Milán for an extended chin wag about everything from discovering jungle and UK bass music to the beauty of DIY recordings, the underground scene in Aarhus and the Regelbau approach to programming a night from beginning to end.
