Facta and K-LONE's Wisdom Teeth imprint kicks off a busy year of 10 year celebrations with the release of a new LP: 'Club Moss' - a collaborative project that draws on the label's existing roster and beyond to build out a uniquely lush and psychedelic take on uptempo club music. The record follows loosely on from the label's 2022 release 'To Illustrate' - another collaborative project that brought together a collection of producers writing forward-thinking, genre-fluid music at 100bpm. Here, on 'Club Moss', the focus is shifted up towards higher tempos - this time looking to join the dots between a global spread of producers exploring exciting new territories within the 150-170 bpm bracket. Drum and bass, footwork and techno are key points of inspiration across the record, but rarely are they presented in their traditional forms. Rather than recreating or imitating these sounds, they are refracted, reduced or repurposed into exciting new sonic shapes, drawing in added influence from dub, ambient, downtempo, pop, experimental electronics, hip-hop and more along the way. As is always the case with Wisdom Teeth's output, the results fit somewhere between the club and a more contemplative, home-listening headspace, with texture, melody and emotion afforded as much significance as rhythm and functionality. The collaboration calls on a number of Wisdom Teeth alumni (Yushh, Sputnik One and label heads Facta & K-LONE) while also introducing a number of exciting new names to the roster. NYC trio Purelink and Sydney resident Cousin contribute the record's opening tracks - each contributing deep, contemplative cuts that join the dots between jungle, ambient and dubby downtempo. Maya Q and LUXE also make their debut appearances on the label, representing a vital new school of London producers - between them contributing two of the record's most upbeat and jaw-locked moments. Meanwhile, club favourites Tammo Hesselink, Ehua and Jay Carder jointly provide the record's heavier moments, coming closest to the label's roots in broken techno and bass music. Amongst the new faces, the record proudly welcomes a selection of verified legends to the label: Leif - whose stunning ambient 170bpm techno cut 'Kallt' marks his first new music in over two years; Airhead, who continues to hone the razor-sharp, atmospheric take on drum and bass first presented on his 2023 EP 'Lightness' (Hemlock Recordings); and, to close, RAMZi - who breaks the mould and bends the tempo down to a slo-mo 110bpm stomp, reframing the record's tripped out, sub-low sonics into a stoned hip-hop framework.
