Deceit. has been pushing his brand of moody atmospherics for some time now; through regular DJing, including a monthly show on Dusk FM, and increasingly through his productions. Verschollen translates from German to mean missing or lost which fits perfectly with the powerful sense of longing that emanates from this release. Each of the four tracks…
Having spent the last few years staring at the Bugged Out Weekender line up and yearning to go, this year I finally took the plunge and booked to spend my weekend in the seaside Butlins resort in Bognor Regis. Upon arrival, I have to say the rooms (and we were in the cheapest option) and…
The Listening Sessions takes a concept used by hip hop communities for probably decades and combines it with a recent surge in electronic music producers to provide a platform for new up and coming producers to display their sounds, through a huge sound system, to a room full of like-minded people. The concept is simple,…
Renowned for their staple supply of alternative music for Birmingham’s electronic scene Leftfoot are back at it again collaborating with ‘Under the Counter’ to bring back half of Digital Mystikz and forefather of dubstep ‘Mala’. It is an absolute treat to be able to see such an artist perform in a venue as small and…
Will Saul, co-head of Aus Music with Fink, played first out of the three headliners from 12 till 2. Aus Music have had some great releases in the past, like Void 23 by Ramadanman and Appleblim and Youandewan EP by Youandewan, so Will has clearly got an ear for a decent record. The set that…
Halloween is probably the holiday best suited to going clubbing. Easter and Christmas can be immediately ruled out as quaint family affairs not conducive hours of ear pounding bleeps and bloops. New Year’s eve is Halloween’s most obvious competitor, but as Mark Corrigan once said “all rational people agree it’s a truth self-evident that it’s…
Fans of the analogue side of house and techno will have come to expect great things from Hungarian producer Route 8. He set the bar high in 2013 with a couple of really great releases and has managed to maintain that high standard throughout 2014 with a single and an EP on Lobster Theremin. His…
Hope Works is a reasonably recent addition to Sheffield’s night life having opened its doors around two years ago. In that brief period of time it has played host to Theo Parrish, Motor City Drum Ensemble, Carl Craig and Ben UFO to name just a few. Run by Liam O’Shea, better known by his alias…
Constantly in the past year we have been mentioning Red Bull at the forefront of the underground music scene from all angles. Be it providing professional production spaces for a whole host of artists to filling the London Eye with 30 different brands for their brilliantly named ‘Revolutions of Sound’; they’re proving themselves to be a…
When J:Kenzo announced he was taking the helm of another dubstep label two years ago it would be hard to think of anyone who wasn’t excited. Focusing on the darker end of the 140 spectrum, Artikal Music has been a constant flow of gritty music. They have been really satisfying our thirst for dark beats…
When DMZ announced at the end of summer they were bringing their dance back to Brixton, it sent excited shock waves across the dubstep community. This was the second of such events bringing Dubkasm, Truth and the infamously bass heavy RC1 sound system to the Prince of Wales which is right off Brixton square, the…
SBTRKT’s early releases, such as LAIKA, and the surrounding post-dubstep aesthetic he was associated with came at the perfect time at the end of the 00’s. As the sounds of dubstep were progressively becoming heavier to the point where they were no longer listenable, a number of artists were pushing the sound in different directions;…
Despite having reviewed the last Infinite Machine release from Liar, we just can’t help but go back to the Montreal based label for more. This latest EP, the 26th for the label, sees Irish duo Effy take things in a slightly different direction. The tracks are effortlessly grooving techno which have rightfully seen the support…
Subp Yao is a name that has only just come to my attention but going through his back catalogue has been a true delight. His latest release, the City Of Dreams EP, comes on the fledgling Doggtown label and has seen support from the likes of Plastician. Based in Amsterdam, this producer specialises in stadium…
