'Mandelbrot / Supreme Array' is a psychedelic, bass-heavy ode to the ineffable - an encounter with the divine, translated through sound. Following Jaz Imsky's debut EP 'Ego Death', a sonic journey of destruction for creation, this latest release moves into what comes next: the revelation. Drawing from the Buddhist scripture, 'Supreme Array' describes the universe as an infinite, intricately adorned field - a boundless vision through which enlightenment is realised. 'Mandelbrot' expands this concept through the language of fractals; an ever-unfolding pattern where the micro reflects the macro, and infinity reveals itself through recursion; a mathematical expression of the same cosmic truth. Sonically embodied in dark, piercing dubstep, this project is designed not just to be heard but to be experienced; a full-spectrum manipulation of frequency, aimed at tuning perception and shifting consciousness. At its core, Jaz Imsky's work - and the ethos of Secret Sonic Shaman Society - is rooted in using sound as a medium for transformation: to raise vibration, to heal, and to reconnect. Jaz Imsky is a Bosnian-Sri Lankan, Singapore-born, London-raised artist merging dark bass with underground innovation. Drawing from visual art and ineffable experiences to alter states of consciousness, she has performed at festivals including Boomtown and Outlook, and at venues such as Fabric London and Warehouse Project, with international appearances across Poland, Hungary, and Croatia. Her work has featured on BBC 1Xtra and Rinse FM.
Oddkut - Bantha (DDD185) Coming at you like the 4,000 KG mythical beast itself - Bantha is the latest weighty, wonky and trippy system heater from Oddkut. With its synth punctuated shuffling groove, exquisite organic percussion and sub pressure, it's the sound track to DDD's favourite matriarchal Star Wars creature, as it travails the desert planet of Tatooine. Strap on your horns, lace yourself with fur and let's get weird to Bantha. Oddkut comes in peace, but he's flexing subs.
TMSV delivers a stripped-back, system-focused take on Hydro, emphasising swing, negative space, and low-end control. His remix sharpens the rhythmic framework, letting percussive elements and bass modulation breathe, resulting in a tightly engineered, groove-led cut built for precise sound system playback.
Bowling out of the Italian underground with a proven track record in bass-wielding system bruisers, DPRTNDRP land on Sector 7 with a slippery set of uptempo club joints built different. Since starting out in 2010 as D-Operation Drop, this pair of beat freaks have more than earned their stripes on the international dub circuit through their releases on the likes of Dub-Stuy, ZamZam and Green King Cuts. The Shook Hands EP marks a shift in their sound as they offer up a mutant, wide-angled twist on 140. The reference points are splattered across the high-impact sound board, with shards of wonky techno, dirty south trap, jungle, garage, dancehall and more audible in the mix. It's everything and none of those things all at once - hyphy rave gear to bring out maximal dance floor response. DPRTNDRP's deep rooted instincts for the rhythm section glue the record together, providing a throbbing pulse under the explosive 'Cortado' or carrying the percussion-focused 'Sun' with urgency. With a high-definition sheen and crafty accents to the sound design bringing the tunes into a vital, upfront now, this is a potent demonstration of where 140 can reach with a bit of vision and the skills to back it up.
'EGO DEATH' is a bass-heavy, psychedelic descent through identity, dissolution, and rebirth. Documenting a process of inner alchemy, each track marks a stage in this transformation. In a world where ego fuels conflict, division, and disconnection, 'EGO DEATH' is a call to turn inward. Where inner change creates outer change, the project reframes destruction as a necessary phase of creation, beyond the self, for collective renewal. Jaz Imsky is an artist using bass to shift states of consciousness. Through her label 'Secret Sonic Shaman Society', she explores music as a tool for vibrational healing. She has performed at festivals such as Boomtown and Outlook, venues including Fabric and Warehouse Project, and across Europe. Her work has been featured on BBC 1Xtra and Rinse FM.
