The Escape To Nowhere

Description

Not many can match V.I.V.E.K when it comes to pushing sound system culture. With over two decades worth of releases, dances and low-end pressure, the Southall-born, System Music label owner announces the imminent arrival of his debut album, ‘The Escape To Nowhere’. Spanning eight deep and meditative tracks, ‘The Escape To Nowhere’ is a fully realised exploration of dubwise tradition, reimagined through V.I.V.E.K’s unmistakable expert approach and unbound from one specific genre Drawing from a lifetime immersed in bassweight heritage and club-ready experimentation, the record distils his musical journey into a fully formed and immersive statement, featuring the haunting vocals of Dandelion and Dego Ranking, experimental percussion and a meticulously sculpted low-end design. ‘The Escape To Nowhere’ will mark the 50th release on System Music, a landmark that underscores both the label and artist’s enduring commitment to forward-thinking bass music firmly rooted in culture and craft.
