Brighton
Big up DA-10, who are just about to drop this. Some info below. Here’s a video of them at Sheffield’s Signals festival that I took last summer, when the sound on my phone used to work.

Press release: 10 releases ago, an unknown label released an unknown band into the ether and on April 29th WotNot will again look to DA-10, releasing ‘The Shape of Space’. While the label has steadily grown, so has DA-10’s reputation as one of the most original electronic acts around, leading to play on BBC 6Music and an appearance on Electronic Exploration’s much-touted compilation.
While the music they make is electronic by definition, DA-10 don’t let that hold them back. Across the EP they channel house, dubstep, head-nod beats, epic song structures, a unique sound paletteand 80s-Michael-Jackson synth-solos.
Some Pitchfork words.
