Eris Drew & Octo Octa helm new fabric presents mix
The T4T LUV NRG founders have mixed 21 tracks over 70 minutes spanning house, bassline, UK hardcore and trance and includes two new solo cuts from Eris Drew and Octo Octa, “Reactiv-8” (out today) and “River,” respectively. It’s out on vinyl (as an 11-track version), CD and digital on November 27th.
“This mix is about letting go and trusting that change is good during a time when the very idea of hope is under challenge,” Eris Drew and Octo Octa say. “We are collage artists so themes are woven throughout the mix, with narratives reappearing via our use of drops, scratches, doubles.”
Earlier this year, Eris Drew released the solo EP Fluids Of Emotion on Interdimensional Transmissions and Octo Octa put out the Love Hypnosis Vol. 1 mixtape on T4T LUV NRG.
Previous entries in the London institution’s revamped mix series are by Amelie Lens, Bonobo and most recently Chase & Status.
