rut x forma: Syz & Small Crab
We’re returning to the Island this May for our first collaboration with
@rut.rut.rut . A lethal meeting point of textural experimentation and soundsystem intent. We’re inviting Vitalizm head
@olisyz and Small Crab to the city’s favourite stripped-back room.
@olisyz thrills in the groove, an artist of UK club singularity who revels in twisted rhythms and sound-sculpted bass weight. A vast network of influences and intentions inform the Syz style. It’s a unique sound, respectful to house and techno past while moving modern with wry grime textures and sub-heavy dynamics; percussive grooves layered with sharp garage swing, found sounds and bass pressure.
Support comes from
@_smallcrab_ , who’s sound is characterised by a distinctive, percussion-driven style influenced by bass music. Her tracks blend deep club rhythms with atmospheric textures, creating dynamic and immersive soundscapes.
Setting the tone are rut (SSSLIP & Beton Brut) + forma (severine). Low ceilings, a heavy sound by AMBER AUDIO. Lighting by
@occyx_
