Incredible sound, I am dancing like a mad man

Very excited to reveal the first in a series of compilations we'll be releasing over the coming months. Club ready heaters from label family and other artists we hold in high regard. Strictly for DJ use only.

GCA013 Circuit 900 - Midori

Pre-order: https://eventhestrong.bandcamp.com/album/yeyeyeye

Both based in Bristol, @djpolo-uk and @nkc have held down a joint show on the city’s newly inaugurated station SWU FM since November 2020. The show found the sweet spot between their sounds, with NKC’s penchant for gritty, mechanoid percussion meshing with DJ Polo’s love for the more soulful, technicolour side of drum-focused club music.

With venues finally reopening in the summer, Polo and NKC launched their clubnight SteamRooms at the Crofters Rights in Bristol in September. The party spotlights both established and upcoming artists pushing the syncopated bounce forwards in UK dance music, featuring Scratchclart and AYAYA for the first instalment.

ETS-YEYEYEYE came about through this ongoing collaboration. The tracks take hybrid influence from the genres and subgenres that DJ Polo and NKC spin on their radio show and at SteamRooms – UK funky, hard drum, tribal house, gqom, amapiano – without slotting straightforwardly into any of them. Both are focused on maximum dancefloor impact: concrete percussion linked up with dramatic builds and wild sound design. ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah’ became the collab mantra, progressively abbreviated and sped up to ‘yeyeyeye’ as they hit on more unruly ideas.

More exclusive music

Premiere: DJ Polo X NKC 'Yeyeyeye'

Calm and airy synths, dreamy vocals, West African elements - and all of that embedded in the electronic music. In the past two years such mixture has become an intriguingly characteristic sound for Mansa (@mansa-music), a rising producer of Gambian descent who was born in Sweden but now resides in Brussels, and his brand new single 'Sonte Saramala' presents the signature style in its full glory once again revolving around the rhythm played on djembe drums.

Cherry on top comes in a form of a lively remix produced by SHE Spells Doom (@shespellsdoom). The sought-after Zambian artist has been living through quite a breakthrough moment of his career in the recent months with his track making it to the compilation released by the legendary Berlin club Tresor as well as being invited to the Crack Magazine mix series and being selected among the ones to watch in 2022 by Mixmag.
