Last Rinse show was dedicated to @systemmusicuk ! A tribute to one of my favorites labels that influenced me the most musically. The show features only tracks released on the label curated by @viveksystem , from dub to dubstep. I recorded it just after the System 14th Birthday Party with all the powerful vibrations from the Sound System still resonating in my body. Wanted to do a focus on some of my favorites I played for the first time for that set + share some pictures of the night! Full tracklist available on Soundcloud! Big up to all the producers 🔊 Bukkha - Revolution Dub (SYSTM036 / 2020) @bukkhagram Sleeper - Oram Mode (SYSTM022 / 2018) Mantra - Reshma (SYSTM049 / 2024) @dj.mantra LAS - Reclight (SYSTM016 / 2017) Cimm - Silva (SYSTM039 / 2021) @cimmmusic VersA - Amanita (SYSTM040 / 2021) @michael_versa Visual by @ninii.adamia 💋

Started my @rinsefrance residency a few weeks ago with a series of visuals created by @ninii.adamia ! Nini is an artist with Georgian roots, born and raised in South Africa! She graphically reveals the sounds of music collectives & artists. We met in Nantes (FR) and we bounded over our love for Soundsystem culture 🔊❤️ so happy to present our collaboration! First episode with this first visual already available! And second episode airs tomorrow on Rinse France ;) xx

Last Rinse residency show was once again dedicated to a record label and this time, I invited the artist @tinatornade to present the London-based label founded by Kode9, @hyperdubrecords ! Hyperdub played a pivotal role in shaping Tina’s music and profoundly influenced her musical language, resonating with her own approach to crafting emotionally charged soundscapes that explore identity. Tina’s work has always been driven by an exploration of the impact of post-memory in music, and this fitted perfectly with Hyperdub’s legacy and Kode9´s concept of Sonic Warfare. 2 & 3 : Introduction & Kode9 - Samurai (2015) @kode9 4 & 5 : The concept of post-memory & Burial - Ashtray Wasp (2012) @burial 6 & 7 : Militaristic sound design & Nazar - UN Sanctions (2020) @noallies 8 & 9 : Music as an acoustic weapon & Fatima Al Qadiri - Endzone (2016) @fatimaalqadiri_ 10 & 11 : Post-dictatorial melancholy & Lila Tirando a Violeta and Sin Maldita - Outro (2023) @lilatirandoavioleta Visual by @ninii.adamia 📢

Soa420’s first soundsystem was her family. A Franco-Malagasy household in the Paris suburbs, raised on her siblings’ reggae and dancehall and her mother’s Malagasy singing. Music as something spiritual before it was ever a dancefloor question. The clubs came later, in Berlin, where she figured out what she was actually chasing: a body, a soundsystem, the physical thing. She brought it back to Nantes in 2018, embedded at Macadam, and co-founded Zone Rouge a year later. Her debut EP No Nerve landed on Beatrice M.’s Bait in September 2024. Red Island, a nod to Madagascar, drops in a few weeks. This Friday she opens WORMS at Badaboum, alongside Sam Binga, Samurai Breaks, and Vitaline. Full interview at the link in bio. 📸 @olga____b__

DEEPER UNDERGROUND 🪱 STUDIO est de retour avec la deuxième édition de WORMS. Une plongée radicale dans le meilleur de la bass culture façon UK. Des caves de Londres aux clubs underground de Paris, on continue d’explorer les racines de la bass music : des rythmiques cassées, des basses profondes et une énergie brute. Pour ce second volet, WORMS pousse l’exploration encore plus loin avec une traversée entre mutations halftime, jungle frénétique et deep dubstep ténébreux. 🪱 SAM BINGA - Pilier de la scène bass music, Sam Binga a signé sur les légendaires Critical Music et Exit Records. Désormais à la tête de Pineapple Records, il redéfinit la jungle en fusionnant les rythmiques 160 BPM avec l’énergie du dancehall et du grime, pour des sets au groove percussif redoutable. 🪱 SAMURAI BREAKS - Sacré révélation de l’année par DJ Mag et habitué des labels Hooversound ou Born On Road, l’architecte de Super Sonic Booty Bangers secoue les raves européennes. À des vitesses vertigineuses, il télescope jungle, footwork et UK hardcore pour une expérience physique, furieuse et terriblement fun. 🪱 VITALINE - Régulière de Rinse France et rodée aux clubs les plus pointus (du mythique FOLD à Londres jusqu’à ses tournées en Asie), Vitaline décloisonne les genres avec une précision chirurgicale. Ses sélections affûtées naviguent avec une aisance insolente entre UK garage acéré, bass music abyssale et mutations techno. 🪱 SOA420 - Ancienne résidente du Macadam et co-fondatrice du collectif Zone Rouge, Soa420 livre une vision de la bass music aussi incarnée que ravageuse. Forte de son EP sur le label de Béatrice M., Bait, et de sa résidence sur Rinse, elle tisse des paysages sonores sombres, au carrefour d’un deep dubstep caverneux et de breakbeats incisifs. 🎟️ Billets en vente via le lien dans notre bio.

The art of the warm up set. Listen back to SOA420 setting the pace with an hour of warm, bouncy pressure as she opened Outernet back in February. London - we are back three weeks from now as we return to KOKO for Night 2 of Mala: In Session. Welcoming a cross generational lineup of pioneers and selectors in one of the cities most iconic venues. Remaining tickets on sale via link bio. @soa42o__

Focus on the latest episode of my Rinse France Residency: Reggae & Dub Cover Songs! 2 & 3 : Great Dub in the Sky, Easy Star All-Stars, 2003. Dub bonus track of the original track The Great Gig in the Sky, released in the album Dub Side of The Moon. A majestic tribute to Pink Floyd’s album The Dark Side of The Moon (1973). Easy Star All-Stars is famously known for their reggae covers of pop & rock classics. 3 & 4 : I’m Still in Love, Marcia Aitken, 1977. The original song I’m Still in Love With You (1967) by Alton Ellis is already a rocksteady tune. Jamaican singer Marcia Aitken covered the song and firstly changed the lyrics to adopt a female perspective becoming the infamous “I’m Still in love with you Boy”. 5 & 6: The Tamlins, Baltimore, 1980. Originally a cover of the folk-rock track Baltimore (1977) by Randy Newman, the interpretation of The Tamlins is actually inspired by the Baltimore cover of Nina Simone. She proposed the first interpretation with reggae influences, mixed with soul & jazz. 7 & 8 : Dub Be Good to Me, Beats International, 1990. A tune full of surprising samples that became a number One Hit in the UK. The British band Beats International covered the whole vocal of the song Just Be Good To Me of The S.O.S Band (1983). The bassline actually comes from The Clash’s Guns of Brixton. 9 & 10 : And the Beat goes On, Prince Fatty & Hollie Cook, 2012. Reggae Disco was a popular Reggae subgenre in the early 80’s. And so naturally the UK producer Prince Fatty & singer Hollie Cook covered the Disco classic And the Beat Goes On by The Whispers (1979). 11 & 12 : You will know, Samory I, 2024. Jamaican singer Samory I covered the Stevie Wonder’s song I will know in the reissue of his album Strength Deluxe. 13 : Sly & Robbie. Sly and Robbie are a Jamaican duo composed of Sly Dunbar, drummer, and Robbie Shakespeare, bassist. They composed and played two tracks I played in this mix “Baltimore” and “Nightclubbing” by Grace Jones. They played a major part in the reggae scene and produced many hits that crossed genres and time. RIP Sly & Robbie. Full tracklist on Soundcloud!

@soa42o__ 's work consistently nods to rap’s raw functionalism as much as to dubstep’s darker architectures, threading introspective dub weight through a framework that remains confrontational and restless. Recent releases crystallise a singular voice: hybrid by design, grounded in Afro-descendant aesthetics, and firmly rooted in the margins where bass music mutates fastest. pic: @olga____b__

Beginning 2026 with a late throwback (as usual) of my @reprezentradio set in London. Wanted to highlight some tracks I love for this one! 2/ One of my favorite tracks from the label System Music. A classic by Karma released in 2013! I never missed a chance to play it on Soundsystems in 2025 hihi. I get goosebumps listening to the vocals sampled from the Jamaican artist Buju Banton ✨ @systemmusicuk @karma_se20 3/ My mate Stacktrace released his EP Incantation on the late label Strike a Posse (runned by Tarba in Lyon, FR). I played this remix way too much in 2025 haha. The steppa part of the remix by Curtis Campbell is so powerful, so well brought by the female vocals. I’m left with strong memories of it especially while playing it at Essaim in Paris or NLDC in London 💥 @stacktraced @russellkrew 4/ There is a spontaneity to this unconventional track that is very short, yet mesmerizing in its sensuality and spirituality. There are so many soul and dub influences that inspired me to include this tune in this music selecta. Big big respect for Greentea Peng!!! 💐 @greenteapeng Thanks to @lisam0re and to @_daviaa___ for having me 😘 set available on Youtube! Visuals: @ninii.adamia xx 💋
