Established in 2007, 3024 is an electronic music label run by producer and DJ, Martyn, and graphic designer, Erosie. The numbers ‘3024’ refer to a postcode in Rotterdam where the label came to light.

Review: The crew over at 3024 have done a spectacular job of arranging this vibrant new collection as the 'Undercurrents' series moves into its second volume, exploring a vast range of bass music themes and styles. From the mesmeric drone sweeps of Dr Mystery's 'When I Did Do Enough' to A7k8's more intense drumwork on 'Groov? 01' and the distant breaks-inspired rhythmic tip toes of Young Muscle's 'Ice', we see a glorious showcase on display from start to finish. The whole LP works as an extensive sonic journey, but our favourite areas have to include R. Mohr's haunting roller on 'Where U Gotta B', alongside the warbling drum & bass influence across Lady Tracy's 'Cheeky'. Awesome work!
Review: Undercurrents Vol. 1 from the enigmatic 3024 imprint is a fabulously vibrant collection of bass-driven creations, showcasing a mix of deep, experimental tunes. Each track brings a unique energy, with Monibi's 'Gnawa Wa Wa' blending hypnotic rhythms and earthy textures, and Alberta Balsam's 'Modulator' delivering a punchy, melodic progression over a driving bassline, both showcasing a solid sense of depth to the overall release. 'Our highlights would include the skippy drum taps and acidic squelches of Annebel's 'Lanceolate', next to the breaks-infused pulses of Toph's 'Lattice' original. A truly vibrant collection that leaves no sonic stone unturned.
