Oppidan has been on my radar for a while now. She would’ve been one of the natural candidates for the next Focus Five article, but after this new EP came out on Night Bass the past week I just couldn’t postpone her debut on FUXWITHIT anymore. Based in Bristol, part of the Steppers Club collective, Oppidan is one of the…

Pholo and Kareful are back! Three and a half years after their first iconic, monumental, evergreen debut effort ‘Atlantis‘, the Wave powerhouse duo has finally unveiled the third chapter of their collaborative series.

If you ever played Unreal Tournament, you’ve surely spent countless hours inside the iconic Facing Worlds map, probably one of the most insane and at the same time genius arenas ever designed in a videogame. If you’re not familiar, it’s not difficult to keep up. The location consists of just an asteroid and two towers, each belonging to a different…
