[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A treat of four epic tracks which instantly feel festival ready, ensuring that Fiesta Soundsystem lives up to his name. The EP has an unusual ability of capturing a defining sound of an era and making a new version which will stand with the music of today. Pulse Fiesta captures the transition of dark UK garage morphing into the birth of Grime and Acid Tool captures the tones of Hardcore at the birth of Jungle. Completely adept at producing multiple genres, the EP goes on to offer more breaks at a rapid speed, each track befitting of smashing up its respective festival.

A label that has been very effective in providing a platform for new producers and artists to shine. Understandably they were keen to work with J.Kong again who has presented a varied release kicking off with a piece featuring Charlie Dax and ending with a sunshine dream remix of Delight by Dunman. No doubt that there will be more collaborations within this unit to come. Listen / Buy[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Deep, moody and experimental creations in this 4 track release that incorporates vocal samples with excellent effect. Aagentah has shown ability to incorporate different styles and influences into his music over previous releases, but clearly chose to stay with hard hitting and heavy for this one. Dunehorn feels like a special piece filled with inventiveness and skill whilst still hitting hard. Out on Intrinzic MusicListen / Buy[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
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.
