Our June handpicked selection of artists to look out for is here; ready?
Kamī’s unique sound blends ambient psychedelia with Japanese mysticism and club energy under her alias ŌKAMI. Gemnital spins a kaleidoscopic mix of house, techno, and rave, turning dancefloors joyfully chaotic. 7ip7o3 delivers a wild fusion of breaks, jungle, and bass, and is now jetting off on her debut EU tour. Finally, GoodMostlyBad’s productions have regularly found their way to Mengzy Selects and she continues to impress with bold, experimental sounds and heavy bass pressure.

2 hours of @goodmostlybad__ on the buttons tonight for Field Data, a very special episode!!
GoodMostlyBad is a multi-genre shapeshifter with zero interest in neat little boxes. Cutting her teeth in hip hop production, she channels that rhythmic instinct straight into the club - fusing genres into bass-driven rollers that hit low, move deep, and refuse to sit still. Built on thick basslines and razor-sharp groove, her tracks feel as alive as the rooms they’re played in. With releases on Vief Records, Scuffed Recordings, Bad Tips, and Earful of Wax, she’s steadily carving out a lane that’s entirely her own.
GMB - “This might just be the best mix I’ve ever recorded — loud, chaotic, and a little bit unhinged (in the best way). We’re bouncing between genres like we’ve got something to prove, packed with some of my absolute favourite producers”.
This one’s a no brainer - 8pm Aaja Channel 2 tonight, get locked in🔒🔒

Happy financial year 26/27 everyone 😎🤨🤔
Some very exciting news is inbound today - VFD018 (don't ask why it's skipped from 16-18, that will become apparent soon) is now with us!
@goodmostlybad__ steps up to the VF plate with funny bich, a three tracker that's a product of years of obsession with 145 BPM.
1/3 of the release is available with the pre-order now, with the whole EP going on sale on 28.04.26.
To reward the early birds amongst us, you can use ‘gmb’ across the Vief site for 40% off anything. That code will work until 23:59 UTC, 11 April. Enjoy!

I met Mehar (aka @goodmostlybad__ ) a few years ago after connecting online. Our first meeting turned into a wild night out finishing at The Lexington with us holed up in the toilets cackling away, unaware that the pub had actually closed. Perfect way to begin a friendship IMO.
I love her productions and in 2024 she joined the label with a track on the Palestine comp I released. Now she’s back with an amazing wiggly acid remix of @redasaiarh ’s ‘Kiki’.
Thanks to @sarahtonin.dj@emily_dust and Sean Johnston for showing the track some love on radio and in the club.
More to come this year from this partnership so watch this space ❤️🤝
OUT TODAY! Dancefloor Designs remixes from @parris.dj and @goodmostlybad__ have landed 🛬
Mehar takes on the sassy new beat of ‘Kiki’ from @redasaiarh , twisting it into a leftfield acid meets NYC ballroom groove & Dwayne works his magic on @nandelemaguni_ ’s ‘Chapa 100’ which has been morphed into a skippy drum tool with plenty of bass weight.
It’s such a privilege to have friends come on board for these reworks - it makes it all the more sweeter 🫶
Go stream it, buy it, run it up - they deserve your ears 🔉
‘What’s that racket that’s coming from the @goodmostlybad__ kitchen?’, her neighbours have been asking on the neighbourhood group chat…
