FatKidOnFire

One of the UK’s finest, leading digital culture publications, FatKidOnFire (aka FKOF) have been incorporating a laser-focus on original, unique content since their early formations in March 2020. Never once resting on their laurels, the multi-faceted, popular platform covers a plethora of artistic mediums including music, fashion, design, media and more, growing into one of the most well-regarded institutions in underground dance music, and the wider inter-connected sectors of the industry. As well as this, FKOF’s label ventures continue to go from strength to strength, reaching new, dizzying heights for the brand by achieving top chart spots on numerous releases in the 140bpm bracket. Over the last decade, they’ve welcomed Kodama, Phossa, Teffa, Pugilist, Chokez, Causa, Argo and more to the collective, dishing out a metric tonne of free downloads and exclusive premieres, also hammering down on the vinyl aspect of their output, unleashing exclusive wax drops that feature a stellar squad of producers - Chad Dubz, Biome, Eddy Seven, DJ Madd, Dark Harmonics, Otz, J:Kenzo, WZ and Ishan Sound. As they continue to move into the 2020’s, FKOF look like they’ll only keep getting stronger, wiser and more musically-militant.

Hallelu-jah - (4:08) 105 BPM
Review: We spent pretty much the entirety of 2020 praising the FKOF movement, who seem to have no limits to what they can achieve within a four-track project. This brand new drop from Mondaigai is right up the same alley as he unleashes some killer original creations, kicking off with lethal reesey bass expressions of 'Sledgehammer', followed quickly by the much quickened metallic drum smashes of 'Element'. Next, the jittering synthesizer action of 'Shockwave' gives us a sound that would cause pandemonium in any dancefloor situation, before rounding off with 'Hallelu-jah', a super syncopated stomper, smashing together pulsating percussion and hypnotic arpeggios for a magnificent finale.

Saar - (5:22) 105 BPM Hot
Meru - (5:29) 105 BPM
Review: FatKidOnFire seem to be able to do very little wrong at the moment, with their output seeming to improve in quality every single time. This latest four track experience from Kami-O is a corker to say the least, kicking off with the flutey melodic pressure and moody subs of 'Saar', alongside the grizzly, swampy underbelly of 'Seven'. From here we then move into a beautifully emotive 140BPM-based soundscape, closely followed up by 'Meru', which provides us with more spicy bass work and a heavily syncopated rhythmic format to round off this new EP in style!

Binary & Ceiva - "Skeleton Dance" - (4:38) 105 BPM Hot
Played by: NAZA
Review: The guys at FatKidOnFire make a major step here in tightening their grip around the top plinth of a now crowded dubstep landscape. They do this by bringing a phenomenal four track expanse to the table from the likes of Binary, who certainly doesn't disappoint. We begin with the shifty, unearthly tones and dubstyle delays of 'Cataclysm' and the hellish tripletted rhythmic plays of 'Decoding', before hitting the stuttered drum work and chilling half time percussive stabs on 'Kill You'. The EP rounds off perfectly with a top draw collaboration alongside Ceiva, which goes by the name 'Skeleton Dance', another unpredictable arrangement stuffed full of haunted sub pressure.

Inflekshuhn - (4:02) 102 BPM
Played by: Mentha, Konsida
Review: Bona fide dungeon master from New Zealand, Headland makes his FKOF debut with four cosmic chasm explorations: "Break Out" rides on an alluring industrial texture most likely sampled from an oil rig in the furthest reaches of the known universe. "VHS Weather" takes us even further into the unknown with a woozy, seasick dynamic that's both paranoid and uplifting. "Trade Off" plays with the concept of space as the beats build with a roomier view, allowing the piped tones and waft through like thick green smoke. Finally we hit "Inflekshun". The swampiest side of the square, be prepared as deep washes of tones and textures coat you indelibly. Unique.

Invasion Dub - (6:05) 105 BPM
Review: FKOF continue to fire full-pelt into the creative unknown. This time rising German artist Causa is in the driving seat. And he's taking us to the darkest possible destinations. "Dismaying" belies its title in every way as the thunderclap snares shatter and tightly-clipped, reversed-tone percussive elements clatter. "Mighty Dub" plays on similar sounds with a heavier, stampier approach where shiny aluminium designs wobble and falter with trippy effect. Deeper again, "Invasion" boasts an array of trippy moaning processes while "Blaster" swaggers on a woozy skank. Unique and forward-thinking... Just as you'd expect from FatKidOnFire.

Bezerk - (5:30) 105 BPM Hot
Played by: Mentha, GAZE ILL
Review: With previous releases on Altered, Indigo Movement, MWM, Underslung and Dubstep Rotterdam, Dubbacle's been bubbling for more than a minute. Now, with this FKOF document, he has potential to boil over into the wider scene consciousness; "Jah Fire" is a haunted affair. All minor chords and strange spatial atmospheres, it wouldn't go amiss on techno imprints such as Monkey Town or bPitch. "Bezerk" is equally unique thanks to its alarming time signature and drum dynamic. "Control" nods neatly at fellow native 2562 with its future garage chords and smooth, deep finish while "Restless" is a condensed slice of smoky jazz futurism thanks to a well processed trumpet and some deft looping in the rhythm department. Genuinely unique, those firebrand fatties sure know how to pick them.
