Ross From Friends – DJ Mag On Cue
In the latest in DJ Mag’s On Cue flagship mix series the Brainfeeder affiliate, Ross From Friends, stepped up to deliver a selection of rave ready tracks. The mix was recorded live during his residency at Phonox and features some classic jungle, dubstep and house tracks. In addition to his mix, the producer and DJ spoke to DJ Mag about his early productions, finding his place as a DJ and working on his album. Check that out here.
Arca – @@@@@
Arca has returned with over 60 minutes of brand new music. The new project, titled @@@@@ arrived in a cross broadcast with NTS Radio and features an array of disjointed experimental tracks which, as is tradition with Arca, push the boundaries of what’s expected from the club. @@@@@ features its own stellar posthuman-style visuals which accompany the rich tapestry of sounds.
SVBKVLT #1: Swimful
The Shanghai-based SVBKVLT label recently joined CRACK Magazine’s lineup of resident DJs. Their first mix sets the standard of what’s to come with Swimful stepping up to deliver an hour of moody club cuts and grinding metal anthems glued together with some grime and UK drill.
