testsets sonic fingerprint foregrounds intertwined micro-rhythmic clutter, honed, chiselled, stirred and distilled until they reveal a uniquely independent, tessellating brew – both of its time, and outside currently prescribed dance music practice – drawing magpie-like pop-cultural tropes from all and sundry. the testset sound is euphoric sonic pattern-making at its most exquisite – multi-layered, playful and immersive.

ikonika & optimum are proud to introduce their highly anticipated new venture: hum + buzz records. this double a side debut release is right at the centre of the current uk crossover, post-genre sound. first up, >aqueous cream< explores a different sound to the one ikonika delivered on her recent hyperdub debut album. a dancefloor ready track with smooth sub bass, staccato piano chords, trademark emotive synth-leads, underpinned by tough kicks, sizzling hi-hats and ricochet snares. on side aa, >ampersand< marks ikonika & optimums first official collaboration. layers of synth melodies float above a steady four/four pulse and unpredictable claps. an angular, broken, melodic march at a house tempo.

d1 has once again come up with the goods, and delivered two brilliant old skool-influenced dancefloor tracks. >flood of emotions< featuring renowned vocalist jenna g, showcases d1s trademark melodic sensibility, while maintaining the tough drums and purebass pressure that makes uk bass music so exciting and impactful. driven by a classic hardcore break, the track penetrates right through you while the uplifting melody, complimented by jennas vocals, washes over you beautifully.

misty conditions is a project that started off when henry collins and richard wilson met up in henrys studio a couple of years ago and jammed for a few days non-stop, enjoying the process thoroughly. the connection became so good in this period that the duo developed a fluent understanding of how each other worked, ending up as a project made across the internet, while henry was living in france and richard in la. they cross pollinated by developing what each did best, henry making and creating banks of samples and richard creating software and effects to cut up and re-sample, passing the tracks back and forth, essentially until they felt finished.
