Two London artists that have recently offered up bizarre, forward-thinking takes on grime — Mumdance and Logos — are now breaking into the label game with Different Circles. These lads have a history of collaboration, both as regular performers at London’s grime-focused party Boxed and via a series of 12-inches.
With the newly christened Different Circles imprint, they hope to achieve a specific “Weightless” sound across all of their releases, starting with the Weightless Vol. 1 compilation. Weightless, as in floating, or the opposite of heavy. As Logos describes the sound in a recent FACT feature, Weightless equates to “spatially untethered club trax [sic].” Featuring the likes of Inkke, Dark0, Strict Face, Rabit, Murlo, and the label co-founders, Weightless Vol. 1 will see a limited vinyl pressing on November 17. Until then, clips from the comp’s six songs can be streamed below.
Weightless Vol. 1 tracklist:
01. Mumdance, Logos & Rabit - Inside the Catacomb
02. Inkke - Love Song
03. Strict Face - Python Crossing
04. Dark0 - Sweet Boy Tears
05. Rabit - More Memories
06. Murlo - Geist
