For the inaugural night, we are proud to present Throwing Snow, PhtOtOmachine, Drop/Dead, Brey, the crew behind the Get Some blog and Resident Elsewhere.
Throwing Snow is in high-demand at the moment, having gone from strength to strength with a string of successful releases on revered labels like Alexander Nut's Ho Tep imprint, Super Recordings and Black Acre, as one half of the Snow Ghosts project.
A musician in the truest sense, he has drawn together a vast array of disparate influences into his inimitable bass mutations. His tracks glow with the embers of elements as diverse as folk and post-rock, as well as the contemporary bass music touchstones of 2-step, dubstep, house and all the glorious grey areas in between.
PhtOtOmachine's recent 'Technicolour' EP on Raffertie's Super Recordings imprint immediately marked him out as one to watch for us. Amalgamating the rhythmic grooves of house and techno with an infectious 2-step swing, his tracks are a heady cocktail of tight dancefloor constructions and hazy late night emotions. This is bass music with soul and spirit.
Drop/Dead is a name that has been garnering increasing amounts of attention of late. His intricately constructed and evocative take on the indefinable sounds of UK bass music are quickly winning over fans everywhere. Tracks like the hyped 'Always Love You' display his ability to merge intricate shuffling rhythms with a deft melodic touch and underlying sense of soul and feeling. With a number of releases on the way over the coming months, this young man is undoubtedly destined for big things.
20-year-old producer Brey is a rare find - so individualistic are the results of his time spent in the studio, that his music immediately dissipates any concepts of scene or genre. His brilliantly idiosyncratic take on rhythms, bold arrangements and unique grasp of melody all contribute to making him one of the most exciting producers around.
The crew behind the brilliant Get Some blog will also be taking to the decks, delving into their record collections to spin everything from house to 2-step to grime, and Resident Elsewhere will be warming up.
