Following Sharp Veins' spectacular ambient instalment, we're excited to bring you the latest edition of Functions Of The Now from an artist we've had in our sights for a mix since before the series even began. Hot on the heels of his Hydraulics EP - perhaps his most well-realised release to date - Bloom has provided us with a companion piece that contextualises his future-facing, mechanical take on grime. The mix is comprised of almost industrial re-imaginings of classic grime tropes and barely offers a moment's respite as it barrels through FOTN alumni Jacques Gaspard Biberkopf, Sharp Veins and Gage - in particular watch out for his highly sought-out dubplate with Kevin Jz Prodigy - as well as rising stars like Janus' club agitator Lotic and recent Truancy Volume mixers Victoria Kim. Needless to say, it's one of our favourites in the series to date and we think you'll agree.

Functions Of The Now X: Bloom

.Drumglistix!  Love all forms of drum and bass & jungle, though I lean more toward amen sounds.   my own pieces have ended up trappish and glitchy, but my heartbeat is a processed amen, for sure  
(for any interested, I have my mixes synced to my Mixcloud page, as well.
