Pineapple Records (UK) Bass / Club

In what could well be described as an 'all star' linkup, Sam Binga links with Machinedrum and Cesco for the 'Niche Flex'. Bringing together three producers with distinct but overlapping approaches to club music, Niche Flex explores the increasingly fluid relationship between UK Garage, Broken Beat and Soundsystem Bassweight from one side of the Atlantic, and the rhythmic language of US Club music on the other. Swing, sub pressure and a distinctly UK-flavoured dancefloor focus meets the rhythmic energy and percussion of contemporary American Club sounds, creating something that feels rooted in both traditions without sitting neatly inside either. That transatlantic connection runs naturally through the artists involved, whether that be Sam Binga's Bristol foundations and long-standing dialogue with US club music, Machinedrum's impeccable history of pulling UK and American rhythmic forms into the same orbit, or Cesco's forward-facing take on UK bass. Released on vinyl and digital, 'Niche Flex' continues Pineapple Records' focus on collaborative, genre-fluid club music built for cutting edge DJs and dances, without ever being confined to a single lane.

The threeway combo you never knew you needed. Sam Binga, Machinedrum and Cesco built the raw bones of these tunes across a single morning in LA, overlooking MacArthur Park, in an intense session that saw them throwing live Bingerian vocals, raw Brazilian shrimp-sellers and tweaked-out Acid lines into the melting pot. Further sessions between Highland Park and Stokes Croft saw these bare bones jams get fleshed out into the four genre-bending tracks that make up the Niche Flex EP, all of which have been tested out in clubs and festivals across the world, and which land this September via Binga's Pineapple Records imprint, on both vinyl and digital formats. While obviously handy in the studio, Team MACESGA (as nobody calls them) also can operate a DJ booth to a reasonably high standard, as witnessed at the raucous Pineapple Takeover at the Beatport HQ in LA, and are available to showcase their Trans-Atlantic Threesome at a Quality Music Venue or Devious Fetish Spot near you.

Pineapple Records (UK) Electro (Classic / Detroit / Modern)

BAGS INC is not just a studio collaboration, it is a real-time extension of Sam Binga and Addison Groove's long-running creative relationship. The album was built around live hardware jams, instinctive arrangement, and the energy of two producers reacting to each other in the room rather than constructing tracks in isolation. That process gives the project a distinct physicality: it feels raw, human, and performance-led, with the imperfections left in where they add character. The wider campaign will also connect the record to a developing live concept, using the album as the foundation for future BAGS INC performances that translate the analogue studio process into a club and festival environment. For DSPs, this is a project with a clear identity beyond individual tracks: Bristol-rooted, hardware-driven, culture-first club music from two artists with deep credibility across multiple generations of UK underground music. "FKN SRS felt like the obvious place to start with BAGS INC. It's got that raw machine funk energy that Tony and I were chasing when we went into Devon Analogue, but the vocal and the rhodes add a certain sexiness to it. The whole project comes from us jamming on hardware, pushing things until they started to swing, and trying to capture that feeling before it got too polished. It's serious gear, serious rhythm, but not taking ourselves too seriously." - Sam Binga Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com

Marking five years of Pineapple Records and a decade since his seminal debut Wasted Days, Sam Binga returns with Club Orthodontics—a mixtape that captures, in high definition, where he stands today as an artist, DJ, and label head. Entirely collaborative and sonically expansive, the project draws from a vibrant palette: Drill, Dancehall, Baile Funk, Breakbeat Garage—all unified by Bingas signature blend of percussive drive, weighty bass, and razor-sharp vocal features. With contributions from a revolving cast of Pineapple-affiliated producers and MCs, Club Orthodontics is both a celebration of community and a masterclass in cohesion. Its unmistakably UK in its attitude and approach, designed to hit just as hard in headphones as it does in the dance. Featuring key collaborators such as Bakey, Machinedrum, and Cesco, the mixtape is a snapshot of Pineapples creative ecosystem—a scene defined not by genre boundaries, but by shared intent and fearless collaboration. Club Orthodontics isnt just a mixtape; its a testament to the collective power of sound system culture reimagined for 2025. Distributed by Label Engine - www.label-engine.com
