My new EP ••• Blips 3000 ••• is out now on Microfunk! Four 130-140 bpm tunes, including collabs with Chime and y/siR + two bandcamp bonuses, available digitally and on cassette.
At the core of this release is a question: can digital artifacts carry emotion like analogue ones do? From low-bitrate MP3 artefacts to spectral glitches & FFT-mangled breakbeats, this mini-album explores audio textures that might feel nostalgic tomorrow, or already do today.
Many thanks to @018athome for the cover art, @sashabersym for the cassette layout, and @vera_ae for the motion animation.
Swipe for previews, comment for support 🌝

Made a funky ukg remix for my good friend from the Netherlands - Mav. You might know him from his atmospheric dnb releases on Scientific Records. He’s now stepping into new territory beyond dnb and I’m happy to be part of it with this flip of his latest single “DRIFT”. Out now everywhere 🍨
Yes yes! 🙌 The Bop Vocal Remix of Mav - “Drift” (Deep Science Recordings) is now out on all streaming platforms 🥳 Check it out
A super unique remix blending deep atmospheric vibes with glitchy UK Garage-inspired grooves, the way only Bop can do it 😎🤙 Really loving this one ❤️
Link in bio for all streaming links 🙏

Head First Remixed sees Akuratyde’s 2024 album reimagined by a carefully selected cast of collaborators. Each track is reinterpreted through a distinct lens, spanning several genres while retaining the emotional core of the original material. Contributions from Bop, Syglit, Tellus, Human Synthetics, Alpha Rhythm, Monika, Biorhythm, Sorse, Alegria, Stillhead, and Akuratyde transform the tracks, from glitch-heavy IDM and microfunk, to atmospheric jungle, to stripped-back minimalism and rave-inspired breakbeat, the album constantly shifts shape while remaining anchored in the melodic identity of Head First. The result is a deeply varied but cohesive body of work that reframes the original album and gives it a new identity. #drumandbass #dnbmusic #electronicmusıc
Sileni (US) is playing in Stockport! An artist whose music has been a key influence on the whole microfunk movement finally joins us for an exclusive dj set at BRUK on Sunday 10th May.
With releases on some of the most iconic leftfield dnb & electronica labels, including Planet Mu, Offshore and Subtle Audio, Chris Sileni has been known since the early 2000s for his skittering percussion, fractured breaks and experimental sound design, alongside a distinct minimalism that later evolved into his Xen Chron alias.
Joining him: Enuui, carrying the Exegene Records lineage, and Synkro & Bop with a special b2b set. Don’t miss this - it’s a rare one!
Sunday 10 May
6–11pm
