SKUDGE PT011 by DJ October

Bristol’s DJ October is one of the city’s best kept secrets, opting for quality over quantity in his releases over the last few years on both his own label, TANSTAAFL, and Skudge. On the A side of his latest 12”, Jaffa, repeating piano chords are overlaid by a pitch shifting, sidewinding synthline. On the B side, Gate 2 Yesterday, DJ October’s percussion fires off and ricochets in unpredictable trajectories over a pulsating bass.

Machines do speak a language understood and appreciated by humans. Measured by the success of Skudge, an artistic duo that has delivered a lot in a very short time. Combining their inspiration and talent through wires and analogue equipment, they seem to always present something new - in a very faithful style.
