Press Info:
WIDE Records is pleased to announce Debasser’s second release of 2025, titled “Home.”

This three-track EP fuses UK Bass, techno, electro, dub, and a touch of downtempo post-club electronica.

The EP commences with “What Is The Time?”, a Debasser classic that showcases his signature wobbles, rumbles, bleeps, and beats, drawing inspiration from the Detroit and Chicago music scenes. The track is a nod to those times when you just don’t want the music to stop and simply want to keep on dancing.

The second track, “N47 To Canada Water,” is a dub electro glitchy affair that pays homage to Debasser’s early London clubbing days. It evokes the memory of waiting at the same bus stop in Shoreditch, patiently counting down the minutes until the bus would finally arrive and begin the slow journey home.

Finally, the EP concludes with the enigmatic “Ucklay,” a beautifully lush, down tempo, post-club track that invites the listener to just kick back, relax and float away.

Debasser has been crafting dance music since the early 2000s. His debut track was released on GTI Recordings in Detroit by Disco D. The track gained widespread recognition, leading to its release on NovaMute, followed by tracks on Seed, Balkan Vinyl, Input Output Inc., and his own WIDE Records. He was a member of Andrew Weatherall’s Haywire agency, playing their parties and numerous other clubs and festivals across the UK and Europe, as well as DJing on Radio 1.

With an eclectic sound and genre-defying approach, Debasser seamlessly blends jungle/drum and bass, techno, UKG, electro, house, and any other musical elements that capture his attention. His unique sound consistently revolves around parties and bass.

Press Info:
Token presents the 6th chapter of the Fuga series. Challenging new faces to complete the label’s sound, Fuga VI is another focused compilation that balances spatial detail and rhythmic bite.

Skipping any introduction to dive straight into the essence of the compilation, Skjöld portrays ‘Forbidden City’ as a tense aquatic exploration. With pressure in the low end, he keeps the record alive by conjuring obscure pads to give dimension and intrigue to an already nervous track. This persistence is quickly met with weight; Tapefeed’s ‘Residual Memory’ follows up to tap into the label’s more aggressive side. Riddled with mechanical sound design bordering on the industrial, the Tapefeed duo creates dancefloor dominating energy that sets them apart with an all-out approach. The density of this second track feeds smoothly into Stephen Disario’s ‘Out Of Tune’ – a drum-forward record with dispersed texture. The LA based producer puts his hi hats brutally forward to cut through the space, finding a remarkable balance between its two sides and exploiting its confrontation.

Returning to the label’s recognizable resonance, Merino steps in with ‘Memoria’ – a manic 5 minute synth loop with minimal percussion. Dealing in restraint and dissonance, Merino naturally finds a home in Fuga VI with this track before heading back into the peak time paranoia of JSPRV35 in ‘Question’. Pushing up the intensity and flicking through vintage percussion lines, ‘Question’ is an extraverted homage to the origins of techno that embodies flair.

The track drives through the middle of Fuga with ease, bouncing rhythm off a sharp bassline with thundering claps and snares. ‘Catch 22’ by Terminus restores balance with minimalism but pace. A hypnotic break in the second half is sure to mesmerize dancers and home listeners alike. Stuttering hats shake throughout ‘Catch 22’ to push the track along, keeping the harmony low and maintaining focus on the movement. With a similar tempo, Sanna Mun follows up with ‘Binary Systems’. A speedrun through an acid-like bassline, the track’s rhythm is obsessive and persistent as we reach the conclusion of the compilation. Fuga VI comes full circle with a ghostly track by Mode_1 called ‘Lifespan’, stretching time and tunneling through with booming toms and shuffled hats. Keeping the pressure high and maintaining that never ending energy is the only way to wrap up such a high energy release and Mode_1 does just that.
