Inspected

John Hislop, better known as Culprate, is among electronic music’s most influential yet underrated artists. For years, the Bristol-based creative has been delivering cutting-edge material that broadly falls under the umbrella of bass music, but contains, and is often driven by, soul-stirring musicality that few in the scene can mimic. From the legendary Nightmares in Reality EP, to his foray…

In August of 2022, we featured NUEQ in our Focus Five segment, not knowing much about the artist, but surprised by the combination of his sheer talent and minimal SoundCloud following. Since then, the artist has shared a handful of impressive tracks, while simultaneously growing a more substantial audience, earning performances and praise in Israel, the United States, and the…

Since mid-September, Vorso has been unveiling weekly singles from his upcoming album titled Holonomy. Through these ten singles, which cover only half of the length of the album, the multi-talented artist has showcased his masterful ability to weave through various genres with ease, sometimes staying true to his trusted drum and bass sound while also demonstrating a knack for all…

It’s wild to think that it has been more than two years since we linked up with COPYCATT for a guest mix and interview. Since then, the skilled beatmaker went on a release spree with a Madlib bootleg, the wicked Trash EP, and a few more incredible cuts, before dropping into relative silence once more. While 2022 was quiet on…

In an era when labels often pump out too many releases to follow or compromise the foundation on which their platform was built, it is important, as a music fan, to keep supporting the platforms that remain true to themselves. That being said, few can say that their sound, their aesthetic, and their quality have remained as consistent as Inspected…

Inspected have never let genres define their releases. Instead, they focus on sharing a variety of styles that broadly fall under bass music, highlighting talented artists that deserve to be part of the conversation, no matter the size of their following. From Ankou’s diverse Cosmogony EP to Powered by Inspected – Series 3, the UK-based collective have been on the…

The team at Inspected have been at the cusp of ground-breaking bass music for over a decade, and one does not need to go deep into their discography to come to this realization. Just this year, the collective has released incredible projects from Ankou, Gyrofield and voljum, singles from Vorso and RefraQ, and a genre-defying compilation. Always falling within the…

Inspected have been on a tear of showcasing ground-breaking music from insanely talented artists throughout 2021, consistently outdoing themselves despite most thinking that was impossible. From a handful of musical projects to expertly crafted merchandise, the team behind the collective are doing nothing but good for the community. The first and only single to drop on the label this year…

A ton of artists in the electronic music scene come from some kind of formal musical training, which is often, but not always, an advantage when it comes to various aspects of being a creative. Few, however, incorporate this training directly into their music, pairing two seemingly distinctly worlds of music into one cohesive ensemble. Enter voljum, a conservatory-educated pianist…

From exploding onto the scene with the electrifying ‘Out Of My Mind‘ to consistently putting out some of the most enthralling and mesmerizing bass concoctions, few have risen the ranks of greatness as masterfully as gyrofield. Hong Kong-born, Bristol-based Kiana Li is attacking electronic music from a different point of view than most, and many are taking note of her…
