VARIATIONS: DJ MAG ESSENTIAL MIX

Key figures in Dub Police's next-generation talent movement, Thom Clarke and Nick Bartlett, the duo known as Variations, have been unavoidable since launching last year. Their debut EP 'Thanks For Coming' scored an impressive 25 in the iTunes electronic chart. Picking up support from across the board – B-Traits to Drumsound & Bassline Smith – it showcased their creative ability with raw sonic clout and led to key appearances representing Caspa’s label on Kiss FM, GetDarker and more recently at Dub Police’s very own warehouse event. Naturally this follow up develops on the justified hype, taking them to an entirely new level with three cuts that sound like nothing else around right now. 

As the pair gears up for new echelons in bass-rooted music on their forthcoming 'Be Seeing You' EP, a three-tracker ("Endlessly Empty," "Subbington" and "Ermahgerd") of staggeringly diverse proportions, Variations has put together a 40-minute mix for DJ Mag.

Get your toes wet for the new EP, out on Dub Police, May 26. (Pre-Order here).
