Club focused bass ridden electro from SUCHI coming out on Jamz Supernova's Future Bounce imprint.

2. Otik - Insomnia

A standout track from what has been an incredible year of releases from Otik. Seemingly a constant releaser, we're all for that.

3. Swoose – Breathe

Swoose – Breathe

Belfast native Swoose is given the honour of featuring on the esteemed Feel My Bicep series. 'Breathe' is a real emotive atmospheric driver, typical of both Swoose and the sound we have come to expect on the Bicep imprint.

Sonic 2 step from the Australian-Lebanese artist. Again, this is a really atmospheric number.

7. Hugo Massien - Dynamic Symmetry

Hugo Massien - Dynamic Symmetry

More deep driven bass. We've seen a big surge in this kind of sound of late with acts like Two Shell championing the sound. This goes that way too.

8. Y2K, JPEGMAFIA – DIRT (feat. JPEGMAFIA)

Y2K, JPEGMAFIA – DIRT (feat. JPEGMAFIA)

Heady breaks from Y2K that are complemented by man of the hour JPEGMAFIA and his energetic lyrics.

CASISDEAD – Traction Control

Vapourwave backgrounds meet the grimey rhymes of CASISDEAD and it's a treat.

10. Glimji – A Gem so Precious

Glimji – A Gem so Precious

Sonic pop-house from Glimji. A really fun track that chucks in neat break patterns and weighted bass lines.
