Savage riddims.
Endgame is a name you will have come across if you’ve been slinking around the gloomier parts of London in the small hours recently.
A co-founder of the Bala Club collective, along with Uli-k and Codes’ Kamixlo, and host of Precious Metals on NTS Radio, Endgame has become synonymous with a sound that’s been building in the capital for the last few years. With less of the pots ‘n’ pans stuff than your typical post-club workout, and with a steady eye on the dancefloor, Endgame’s heavy blend of industrial crunch and rap swagger has seen him picked up by NYC imprint Purple Tape Pedigree, which released his crushing Savage EP earlier this year.
His debut FACT mix is a sludgy, unpredictable collision of genres, fusing Nelly Furtado’s FM coos with overdriven hiccups swept up from the dimly lit basements of SoundCloud. With appearances from Kelela, NON’s Nkisi, Lotic, Imaabs, Elysia Crampton and more, it’s more than enough to slake your thirst for up-to-the-minute club sounds.
