[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Blizzards album released early in 2020 went down as a great listen. Now we are treated to some great remixes by Nathan Fake and choice producers joining in the form of Irene Dresel and Afrodeutsche, who lends her vocals to stripped back version of Cry Me a Blizzard to create an ethereal listen. The live version of Torchsong is also a wonder to behold. Beauty from the outset, Fake incorporates remixes with meaning, including his own homage to Orbital who the Norfolk raised producer grew up listening to.

Imagine a new version of Beverly Hills Cop and the type of music that you would want to accompany the escapades. The Brazilian outfit delved back into the days of Baile funk when pirate radio was the only outlet for the music. Their aim to bring back the sounds in cleaner press was set out by label Selva Discos as they reminisce of past pioneers. Listen / Buy[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]

Blemish spent 2020 reviewing Bass music releases by picking a highlight each week. His video reviews carried much needed uplifting messages which was a precursor to him playing a Bass heavy guest mix during the Heartless Crew’s show on BBC 1Xtra as a feel good set during the first lockdown. In addition, Blemish hosted some well watched interviews with future thinking producers such as DJ Eggs Legs, Kamran and turntablist Kypski. Blemish is excited about joining the UKBM team and endeavours to highlight new Bass releases to watch out for in a new feature, The Bass Drop.
