DOWNLOAD // TRI ANGLE RECORDS PRESENTS.. "LET ME...
Download
Not content with just being part of a rad outpost for all manner of scuffed up, lo fi jams, Robin from 20JazzFunkGreats recently birthed Tri Angle Records; and I bet a lot of internet dudes are kicking themselves for not getting to that name first. I think the combination of W**** H****, “triangle” and being on a tumblr might be the incantation that drags you into the...

12"S YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED
3. Kowton - Basic Music Knowledge/Hunger
Idle Hands
Buy MP3 / Buy 12”
From its HQ in Rooted Records (quite possibly the best bass music repository in the country) Idle Hands is slowly but surely bringing attention to the diverse outskirts of Bristol’s incredibly fertile music scene. Launching with an excellent Peverelist white label, and following that up with a showcase of...

MIX // GEIOM // PLANET MU MIX
Geiom Planet Mu Mix by Planetmu on Mixcloud
Excellent mix from Berkane Sol boss and undefinable Nottingham man Geiom taking in all the excellent kinds of UK bass musics he exists at the nexus point of . The fact he’s doing a mix for Planet Mu says to me a big release is coming through for them, but we shall have to see. One to add to their insanely good slew of future releases if so!

12"S YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED
2. MR DIBIASE - CAKEOLOGY
Fat City
Buy/Stream
“Half man, half SP404 beatmaker” Dibiase first came to my attention launching the All City LA 10” series on top form with occasional partner in crime P.U.D.G.E (who coincidentally drops his head melting debut full length “Idiot Box” on Ramp Records next Monday, cop that here). Five releases in, and numero uno still...

NEW RELEASE // NITE JEWEL // AM I REAL?
Now streaming from the Nite Jewel site, the follow up to last year’s beyond brilliant one-two punch of Good Evening and Want You Back EP (featuring also excellent The Samps) is available to download from today. Evoking warped and faded memories of codeine disco never made, both releases inhabited unique sonic worlds. Utilising the texture of four track recordings, clipped vocals and...

12"s YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED
So there’s been quite a long time between me stopping writing regularly and picking up again. In that interim a hell of a lot of records have been released, and an overwhelming amount of good ones at that. Whilst waxing lyrical over some of the ones that have switched up the UK bass matrix, totally blown my mind and burnt up dancefloors might be fun, does the internet echo chamber really...

ALWAYS EVERYTHING 1.0
So I don’t really update this blog very often. A couple of people have asked me to update it more over the last couple of months, although I imagine they comprise around 75% of the readership. There’s been a couple of reasons I haven’t; partly because a whole heap of time has been taken up by exams, but mostly because future plans made it seem pointless updating a tumblr with...
