The 21st installment of 808 is here.
This month bringing you two of the most exciting artists in the undergorund UK House and Techno movement right now.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
MY NU LENG
Since releasing their debut EP FIREFLYS on MINDSTEP MUSIC last year, MY NU LENG have been gaining more and more accolades.
The Bristol based duo has a hard-to-categorise sound which draws on many different influences but kowtows to none in particular. Anything from pitched shifted vocals to bass heavy rumbles feature in their sounds.
The duo also spans the genres and tempos on their own radio show and at gigs around the country. Their recent release ‘TIME GOES BY’ on MINDSTEP MUSIC and new DAMP EP on LO-NOTE UK both exhibit a penchant for dark and moody music that re-imagines garage influences in fresh and exciting ways. Others include “THE GRID” b/w “HIPS & THIGHS” on 877 RECORDS deals in more heavyweight rhythms, scuttling textures and solid 4/4 beats. Finished with a subtle vocal it’s been raved about by press and punters alike, ensuring the pair’s rise will continue apace in 2013.
BOBBY CHAMPS
In a market as saturated as that of underground house and techno, it’s often an uphill battle when it comes to getting your music into the right hands.
Not so, it would seem, for London based producer BOBBY CHAMPS, who can already count the likes of TIGA, CLAUDE VONSTROKE, JACKMASTER & BEN UFO amongst his fans.
Champs’ raw, club ready compositions – that pay homage at once to both cutting edge New York House and strains of European Techno, have also seen support from BLAWAN, JOY ORBISON & MAYA JANE COLES – no mean feat for an artist still fine tuning his sound.
It comes as no surprise then, that over the past 12 months releases have surfaced via tastemaker labels such as HYPERCOLOUR and PICTURES MUSIC – whose combined stables can lay claim to some of the very biggest stars in underground dance music, including GEORGE FITZGERALD, DARK SKY and LAPALUX – not to mention Coles herself.
