POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
since our party began, the booth has mostly belonged to one artist at a time. we have long been wary of back-to-backs feeling forced, and believe that chemistry behind the decks relies on more than musical compatibility alone.

for our upcoming anniversary, we take a step in a new direction, inviting a selection of pairings, some longstanding, others newer, to share the booth. in each case these back-to-back offerings carry a natural through line, connections founded within friendships, romantic partnerships or shared participation in local scenes.

partners in life, Bunney and Dockett Eddy have naturally developed a musical language of their own.

eerie atmospheres, intricate minimalism and stranger psychedelic tendencies run throughout, carrying them from london and leeds into some of the european scenes thumbprint follows closely.

there’s already plenty of history between the records here.

DJ Rino and Kuba’97 go back a long way.

friendship came first, followed by countless hours listening, dancing and playing alongside one another. both bring deep record bags and an appetite for music that can twist, loosen and change course without warning.

their understanding behind the decks has already travelled far. this is another chapter.

somewhere between into the burrows, abstract grooves and the close circle surrounding both sits the world Ella Fayden and Picasso have grown through.

jazz, dub and psychedelia are recurring reference points, increasingly pulled towards the more curious reaches of electronic music.

different ears and collections, fed by many of the same inspirations.

Mia Cecille and ZTO have crossed paths behind the decks before, but arrive there from slightly different directions.

hypnotism, euphoria and rhythmic oddities colour Mia’s selections, while ZTO reaches back through forgotten ’90s obscurities and heads-down grooves informed by his central place within one eye witness.

they’ve shared the controls before. we’re curious to hear where they take them this time.

behind thumbprint sit two distinct musical perspectives in not so genius and tom thumb. these have been shaped by over five years of travelling, listening and building alongsid
