We are kicking of 2023 with a great selection from Birds from London. Actually if you were lucky you might have caught her this week with a killer set at Noh Radio. Birds was kind enough to share her comments with each track. Thank you Birds once again. And for the rest: Keep the dance floor safe, and the music weird. Love from Maze!

DIE! II - Heimat (Zohar Remix) (Teenage Menopause)
I’m a long time fan of this label as well as both Heist and Zohar. This one’s an early doors experimental dub one.

Officer - Deli Girls (Sweat Equity)
Angry punk music on a hip hop beat. I actually come from a background of fronting punk / post- punk bands so this one is very ‘me.’

The Seed - Maelstrom and Louisahhh (Raar)
Where dark wave / EBM and electro collide.

K1 - Aloka (Punksmusic)
Naughty bass lines and Amen breaks.

X-tended Reality - Cardopusher (Ever Records)
This one is heavy AF. Cardopusher is on fire ATM. I also love his Safety Trance project.

Minefields - The Prodigy (Re:drum Remix) (Self release) 
Another banging peak time bass track from the Ukrainian electro powerhouse.

Temporary Iteration - Sha Ru (Woozy)
Nice and wonky dub track with a sick vocal.

The Devil is Blue - Identified Patient (Nerve Collective)
If you like your breaks experimental, intense and heavy, be sure you pre-order this record. Out next week on Job and Gamma’s new label Nerve Collect.

Fly Me In - Interstellar Funk & Loradeniz (Artificial Dance)
This one’s gone straight into the folder on Rekordbox where I keep all of my emotional bangers for the end of the might. Beautiful track / EP.

Rain Dance - Birds (Feed The Void) 
My favourite track from my new release, out next week on my own label Feed The Void.
