* kowton makes an emphatic return to livity sound this autumn with his first solo 12” for the label since 2012. * a foundation block of the label, kowton has also released on hessle audio, all caps and idle hands and most recently scored a hit with his ubiquitous -glock & roll- on young turks offshoot whities. his music s been remixed by karenn, kassem mosse and surgeon and in turn he s remixed work by paul woolford, tessela and untold. * now a regular some of the finest clubs around, kowton has played across europe both live with livity sound (alongside peverelist and asusu) and as a solo dj. in the past 12 months he s toured japan, america, australia and is set for repeat visits this autumn. * this new livity sound 12- see s kowton in a typically reductive mode: on repeat layers pulsing subs with weighty percussion and enveloping synths, holding patterns flips things into a streamlined modulating techno workout of abrasive drums and rotating rim shots.

after an inaugural, top-rated release by kouslin and his friends, the le chatroom familia remain on top of their release schedule with this successive record, featuring some familiar faces from the uk music scene. the team have compiled another hefty va, containing three bass-heavy tracks close to the 130bpm mark that definitely resonate at le chatroom’s signature frequency. with their first release having received support from a wide range of artists, from marcus nasty to huxley to bristol s livity sound gang, and with glowing write-ups in djmag, when we dip and cone mag, this second excursion is destined to be a highly successful follow-up.
dj support: lee gamble, peverelist, kowton, moxie, marcus nasty, jus now, simo cell, murder he wrote, lurka, silas and snare.
it s no secret that idle hands is a label built on a foundation of dub. from the earliest releases by pev, kowton and szare through to more recent output from o$vmv$m and christian jay, the influence of bristol s soundsystem heritage looms large in the myriad electronic music threads the label encompasses. sometimes this influence is explicit, other times implied, but the principles of sub heavy, spacious music for both body and mind guide the stylistic arc of the label as a direct result of the label s long time immersion in roots and dub culture.
asusu made his debut in 2009 for the inaugural release on project squared, combining his passion for garage with a newly discovered love of techno. since then, his sound has explored new recesses of uk dance music, re-appropriating house and techno within uk sound system culture, all the while retaining his early ties with the dubstep/techno axis. his latest venture has been the creation of a new label called impasse. he also works with peverelist and kowton as part of the livity sound label and live show, where his blend of influences contribute to the trios shared ethos of creating uncompromising, raw music to dance to.
livity sound is the label and live project combining the talents of the bristol trio of peverelist, kowton & asusu with a mandate to explore the edges of techno through the prism of the bristol echo chamber. the velez / rendering 12 inch is the second, highly anticipated solo release for asusu on the label.
