Live Set Recordings

I recorded my NYE performance at a house party full of some of my closest friends. It was a wonderful night :D

I turned a few instances of weird mic interference way down, because just killing it felt odd. I also reduced the midnight countdown volume to match the rest of the waveform so it doesn't hurt to listen to, although it is still certainly clipping lol.

Recording of my 1:10-2:00 AM live set from Rhizome Presents Patchwork on May 25th, 2024 at The Faculty in Edmonton

Fantastic night full of fantastic people. Cool lights, great sound, great venue, great performers and a great crowd. If you want to relive 50 minutes of your life, missed it, or are looking for a track ID, here you go!

Track List:
Black Cloud feat. Victoria (Original Mix) - Royalston, Victoria
Lean Time (Original Mix) - Trex
Spooked (Original Mix) - Emperor
Anomaly (Original Mix) - Skellytn
Sacrifice - Noise Parfumerie
Snakes + Villains ft. T-Man - Sustance, T-Man
Thud & Blunder (Original Mix) - Emperor
System Overload (Original Mix) - Skellytn
Shadowban feat. T Man (Original Mix) - QZB, T-Man
You Choose (Original Mix) - ACI TONA
Armour Piercing (Original Mix) - Current Value

Life Is Lost - Burr Oak, Nick Bee
Voidwalker (Original Mix) - Ed Rush
Resonance (Audio Remix) (Original Mix) - Omneum, FinalFix, Audio
Human Research (Original Mix) - Lockjaw
Lapse (Original Mix) - Sleepnet

If it sounds a little different for the first 8 or so songs, it's because I had to re-record it after, as I forgot to press the button at the start O.o

Also, I feel pretty good about this set, but during the "Shadowban" -> "You Choose" transition, I got distracted by a redlining audio channel and was fiddling with a trim knob when I should have been mixing, so that's why the track stays in too long and gets pulled out abruptly xD

Rhizome Patchwork May 25th

This was a set I recorded on January 4th, 2025 for a friend's new years house party. I played the 11:00 pm to 12:30 am time slot. It was a lovely time, full of lots of close friends as well as plenty of cool people I had never met before. The sound setup was in his living room (and provided for by Opening Move), with speakers way too big for the space (the ideal setup). I think this set showcases my music taste, and it's evolution over the last year very well, as well as a tonne of fantastic artists including some super underrated ones. I am proud of how this came together in the end. There were no glaring mistakes, and the small ones I did make, it feels like I managed well and are hard for me to pick out unless I am listening very carefully at the exact moment they occur. If you want to relive 90 minutes of your evening, catch a piece of the set you missed, or glimpse a small sliver of an amazing night: here you go :D

Shout out to Opening Move, a Duo who played their first set (https://on.soundcloud.com/Tue7A6ZSfZsm5fTW7) in front of a crowd (and did a fantastic job) before me, as well as bonzai (https://on.soundcloud.com/aVBu6NwFvqLC8w727), a badass local artist who played a fantastic set after me.

The picture here is from the art window at the end of the night, which was open for anyone to add to all night.

The next instalment from the Yamatai 2025 Catalogue is finally here and it is a special one....

We are over the moon to finally announce DKN's debut release on Yamatai 'Distorted Reality / Ritual' featuring legend in the game Stanza. Not only is this a debut from the Brighton based producer but it us also an official announcement of Deen becoming a core artist within the label.

This perfect debut brings 2 heavy club anthems already causing chaos across Europe and beyond, supported by some of the genres biggest names.

We first met Deen back in December 2020 when he featured on the Subtitles takeover at Studio 808, already fans we kicked it off and he spoke about his forthcoming album / projects and he showed them to us and we were blown away by the sheer quality this man possessed in the DAW. Roll on 4 years and that same album has been released and what a piece of work it is. It's funny how the world works, someone we used to look up to and only dream of getting tracks from is now releasing his debut single on the label.

If you enjoy gritty and heavyweight drums paired with unholy in you face basslines then DKN is your man. Tracks that have a style similar to the classic RAM Records days, we are honoured to be releasing a single that highlights this forgotten style that we love so dearly.

Ben's Den

By Carl Butterfingers, ESEF News

BREAKING NEWS: In a scandal that has rocked the music industry, or at least the three people who still care about credits, a man was apprehended last night clutching a Best Producer award that, shockingly, did not belong to him. The suspect, known only as "Dava," was allegedly the ghost producer for Doctor Printer, the drum and bass superstar renowned for his iconic releases of stylized Instagram photographs with his hands in the air and pre-recorded sets that move crowds to tears.

Our investigative team revealed how Dava the Ghost Producer slipped through the industry’s so-called "security measures", all thanks to Bobbi "The Gatekeeper" McAllister, the self-proclaimed "arbiter of real music" (who, it turns out, couldn’t spot a ghost producer if they haunted his own playlist).

When pressed, he added, "Also, I was at a rooftop party when I listened to it. The bass sounded great over the speakers, so I figured, ‘Why overthink it?’"

Sources reveal that the award was mistakenly given to Dava after the jury, comprising of two Spotify algorithm engineers and a man who once DJ'd at a wedding, believed that the people who actually create the music should receive the credit.

"This is an outrage!" declared an anonymous industry insider (who may or may not be Doctor Printer's publicist). "In today's music landscape, producing a track is the least important part of being a producer. What matters is owning a UK passport, a small family loan of £1 million, and a farm of Eastern European ghost producers working in shifts to launch your album on mainstages while you post gym selfies."

Doctor Printer released a statement: "I am shocked—SHOCKED—that anyone would think I don’t make my music. Next, you’ll tell me my Instagram poses aren’t spontaneous. I stand by my artistic vision, which is mostly pointing at the crowd and occasionally tweaking a filter knob."

Award Jury Spokesperson: "Look, we just assumed the guy with the laptop was the intern. Our bad. We just work here." Or we were just doing our jobs?

Dava: "I just wanted my mum to be proud of me for once." (He was last seen applying for a UK visa.)

When the jury mistakenly gave Dava the award, Bobbi the self-appointed guardian of "real music" was shocked, not because the wrong person won, but because he didn’t even know Dava existed.

Wait, there’s a real producer behind Doctor Printer?" Bobbi reportedly asked. "I thought he just, like, vibed in the studio while his team did the work?"

When reached for comment, Bobbi simply said: "Look, if Dava had have just tagged me in an Instagram story with 🚀🔥💯, maybe I would’ve noticed. But no, he had to take the hard road. Amateur mistake. The award needs to be revoked."

After the scandal broke out, Bobbi tried to spin the narrative: "Look, ghost production is just collaboration with extra steps… and money… and no credit's Dava should be grateful for the exposure!" He then allegedly offered Dava a consolation prize: a repost on his "Underrated Gems" playlist (which has 47 followers, 12 of whom are bots).

The Bigger Problem: Why Was Bobbi in Charge?
Sources reveal Bobbi’s qualifications for being a gatekeeper included:

- Owning a pair of "studio-grade" headphones (that he mostly uses for podcasts)
- Once getting a co-sign from a DJ who later turned out to be a literal ghost (long story)
- Using co-working spaces, paid for by his trust-fund
- An unwavering belief that "if it charts, it’s art"
- An unwavering belief that all his friends will chart

Meanwhile, the scandal has ignited a firestorm in YouTube comment sections, where armchair critics are doing what they do best: comparing everything to something else.

This is Carl from ESEF News reporting, reminding you: if you’re not cheating, you’re not trying.

"A-Tech" are back with a 13 track LP titled "The Edge of Silence". A-Tech is a duo of two childhood friends from the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, whose musical journey began with a common desire for depth, darkness and honest sound. Always on the same wavelength, they created atmospheric music filled with inner tension and shadow. After more than a decade of silence, A-Tech came back - matured, meaningful, with a new outlook and experience. They worked on the album "The Edge of Silence" for more than a year, putting into it every emotion, every shadow of their life. This is dark, mature drum and bass that sounds like a revelation. It contains the hum of loneliness, the tension of internal struggle, and light through the cracks. On "The Edge of Silence", a voice is born that cannot be missed.

Edmonton based DJ and Producer focusing on darker Drum and Bass genres such as neurofunk, darkstep, crossbreed and technoid. That being said, I do not shy away from minimal, deep, liquid, halftime or even more broad bass music genres to round out a set and make it fit a night better.
