Yh yh - my tape for @cavempt with top boy @spmc is now live! It’s a really nice feeling to see this one out in the wild, including some of my photos in the design. If you’re double lively you can cop one via my bandcamp page 📼 but there might be some other places with copies to follow.

Big up all the CE crew and to SP for agreeing to jump on this with me! He’s one of the best in the game and unsurprisingly sounds so good over this BPM range.

Brought to you via the late 90’s in suburbia, failing my exams, bunking the train, Wax city, my silver 98 Ford Escort, Force FM, swag, Reebok workouts, Biggin Hill, snooker at the British legion, Purely Way cruises, tracky b’s, the Glades, endless draw missions, Hackett polos & Aquascutum caps.

If you ever wondered what goes into a Fold & cu.rve beat, here’s some studio scenes of splice drag and drop in action 😉 Thank you to everyone supporting the release so far. Love F&C x

OUT NOW!! - ‘Caramel’ by Fold & cu.rve

☀️ ‘Caramel’ Out this Friday ☀️

Caramel has had a long journey. We started this one over a year ago, forgot about it, then resurrected it into its final iteration. We kept persevering with it as we felt there was always a great core idea in there.
It’s ready just in time for summer, festival season and to enjoy on the balcony with your small plates & orange wine. Shouts to @ingramrecords for the support and getting this one out there. Available to pre-save via bio links. Love F&C x

@ffffoldddd steps up for the latest cassette tape mix from Japanese streetwear brand @cavempt. With @spmc on hosting duties, the tape is Fold’s love letter to “dark, dubby garage and proto grime from around 1999–2002. A really sick and niche sounding era.”

“I would’ve been around 14 years old, through to my GCSEs and up to college time, so I have great memories of growing up immersed in the culture and driving around in my silver Ford Escort, blaring this stuff in and out of South London to the edge of the sticks where we lived.

It was pre-internet, so you had to be very resourceful and dedicated to this thing to get anywhere near it. It wasn’t handed to us on a plate and it wasn’t that popular, we were just obsessive.

We used to stick coat hangers in the antennas of our stereo stacker systems to pick up the pirates clearly and make tapes to play in the car or hand out to mates at school. Weekends meant trips to Big Apple, Wax City and Swag Records in Croydon for records and tape packs, coming back with a stack of rave flyers. Most nights after school, we’d link up, mix, and record our own tapes.

I was already obsessed with drum & bass and going raving, nights like Trouble On Vinyl at Mass in Brixton, MC Convention at Stratford Rex and United Dance at Bagleys (before it shut), with older friends by the time I was 16 (don’t tell Mum). It all went hand in hand, dark music from the capital, the sound of the underground and my youth.

SP:MC should need no introduction, he’s writing some of the best modern interpretations of dark 2-step garage on his label @declassified.info. He recently collaborated with EL-B, and is one of the last generation of proper live MCs. He’s from the same era and slightly older than me, so understands all the reference points. A proper head that can bubble and toast over a set, but also bring serious bars. I really wanted to get Stu on something around 140, as he is usually known for drum and bass, but his flow lends itself to the slower BPM and we don’t often hear it.”

He recently collaborated with EL-B, and is one of the last generation of proper live MCs. He’s from the same era and slightly older than me, so understands all the reference points. A proper head that can bubble and toast over a set, but also bring serious bars. I really wanted to get Stu on something around 140, as he is usually known for drum and bass, but his flow lends itself to the slower BPM and we don’t often hear it.”

@ffffoldddd steps up for the latest cassette tape mix from Japanese streetwear brand @cavempt. With @spmc on hosting duties, the tape is Fold’s love letter to “dark, dubby garage and proto grime from around 1999–2002. A really sick and niche sounding era.”

“I would’ve been around 14 years old, through to my GCSEs and up to college time, so I have great memories of growing up immersed in the culture and driving around in my silver Ford Escort, blaring this stuff in and out of South London to the edge of the sticks where we lived.

It was pre-internet, so you had to be very resourceful and dedicated to this thing to get anywhere near it. It wasn’t handed to us on a plate and it wasn’t that popular, we were just obsessive.

We used to stick coat hangers in the antennas of our stereo stacker systems to pick up the pirates clearly and make tapes to play in the car or hand out to mates at school. Weekends meant trips to Big Apple, Wax City and Swag Records in Croydon for records and tape packs, coming back with a stack of rave flyers. Most nights after school, we’d link up, mix, and record our own tapes.

I was already obsessed with drum & bass and going raving, nights like Trouble On Vinyl at Mass in Brixton, MC Convention at Stratford Rex and United Dance at Bagleys (before it shut), with older friends by the time I was 16 (don’t tell Mum). It all went hand in hand, dark music from the capital, the sound of the underground and my youth.

SP:MC should need no introduction, he’s writing some of the best modern interpretations of dark 2-step garage on his label @declassified.info. He recently collaborated with EL-B, and is one of the last generation of proper live MCs. He’s from the same era and slightly older than me, so understands all the reference points. A proper head that can bubble and toast over a set, but also bring serious bars.
