Following releases for Woozy and Accidental Meetings, as well as a string of transfixing EPs on his Hectare Discs imprint, the Manchester-based DJ and producer returns with his inaugural full-length: an ambient-tinged ode to the places and faces that shaped him.
Across seven cuts, WDDS traces his journey from the serene coast of Brighton to Manchester’s sprawling urban jungle via intricately woven threads of ambient, drone and beyond. What emerges are a series of expansive, lowercase jams.
Elsewhere across the project, the label head taps into the more percussion-forward modes of previous releases. Title track ‘Migration’ collides Burial-esque drum patterns with granular piano melodies for a post-dubstep-inspired portrait, ahead of the breaks and jungle hybrid ‘Mushy Impossible’, which features wistful keys from pianist Richie Taylor Holme.

This jam was recorded while walking my dog (the golden Cocker spaniel) and my partner's dog over the weekend. Something I'm going to start doing more is jamming outside. Much more of a vibe! Links to everything else linktr.ee/wddsmusic

Big thanks once again for supporting my music in 2020. I'm releasing a single with an accompanying video 6th November. It has been put together using footage sent to me by friends of them at festivals and club nights last year. By no means is it supposed to be an avant-garde/artistic creation, more of a nostalgic memory highlighting how live music plays such a big part in our lives and I hope t...
Can we get a wiring explanation?? Audio, midi etc?? Thanks 🙏🏻
@@TW-hf5ti blackbox audio + s1 audio into the Bluebox, master midi clock sent to 3 devices via a midi thru splitter
man knows 🤌
Dude this is inspiring im about this 90s vibe 😍
love it 🫀
Big ups 🔥🔥
👊
Dope set 👍
🙏
Thankful for the algorithm gods sending me here. Killer set! 🙌
Thanks for watching!
Dope
I vibe with this style🔥
Thanks 👊👊
Do you put your Microfreak in some sort of protective case when hiking into these locations? I just purchased one and am wondering if my big ass laptop bag is sufficient to protect it on bike rides and hikes.
bubble wrap and a laptop bag. No issues so far
Location and track are pure vibes bro!
Thanks a lot. Can’t beat the Lake District on a sunny day 🌞
Lovely sounds!
Nice 🔥& look at the beautiful baby girl ☺️
Really cool! Loved this jam. You got some great textures with the MS-70.
What a tune. When’s it getting released?
Still unreleased atm.
Sounds amazing - great track WDDS
thanks a lot!
Hey! Awesome track! May I ask why the Roland mixer what is it for?
It's sending the signal from the BB to my phone
Nice
Sounds so goooud
Thank you!
Great atmosphere with this minimal setup. Would love to see this jam evolve into a full track available on Bandcamp 😊
Thanks a lot. Maybe one day I'll do some of these tracks on cassette!
can the microfreak to lush dub chords?... with the help of some of that ZOOM stompbox reverb and delay of course.
Not really imo. Need at least 5 voices for that. The Minifreak on the other hand definitely can as it has 6 (twelve in paraphonic mode)
this is so good. Love it. Reminds me of the good old jungle days
Thank you!
Yes! Bless! Reminds me of 95! Respect! 180bpm ?
Thanks man. 164bpm (I think!)
Yes🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🖤
Yeah man
Sick!
❤️
I use this exact same setup. The microfreak and the blackbox into the go mixer. Occasionally I'll use the sp404 as an effects processor. Love it.
Yeah that sampler looks great. When I have a bit more disposable income its on the list!
Dope
Thanks
the BB has one of the brightest screens for outdoor use, love it. Can't be said for quite a few other devices (looking at you op-1/op-z!).
Yeah the screen is really good. Interface just makes sense to me
Wow this is awesome! What a proper jungle session mate! How do you like the Roland go mixer? Thanks for sharing
Thanks mate! The build quality is sub-par however it sounds good and can run off your phone's battery which is incredibly handy. Worth the trade off in my opinion.
All jungle is massive👍👍
Amen 😉
Nice beat! Is this only the blackbox?
Pads were made using Arturia Pigments, rees is a sample
Cool 👍
Nice. Did you compose on the 1010 or just using it for live playback/tweaking? I'm thinking of getting back into making jungle after many years and looking at all the hardware samplers out there. Used to have a 2000xl and 6400 Ultra back in the day.
Thanks man. No the Blackbox is purely a performance tool. A bit too fiddly to edit breaks on unfortunately. Personally I’d recommend the Polyend tracker for composing jungle. A few pals have them and absolutely swear by the workflow. pretty easy to move projects to a daw environment as well.
@@wddsmusic Cheers man. I've actually been looking into the tracker the past few days. I've dabbled with Sunvox before so I'm not completely new to the tracker workflow.
Quality - this is creative freedom.
Thanks!
Good video! How’s the audio quality from Go mixer??
Thanks, yeah I think it's very good. The only downside is the build quality means it's a little bit fragile, but worth the trade off in my opinion
🤩👏👏👍
Love this mate ...my blackbox arrived a few days ago and I am looking forward to jamming with it as well 👌👌😁 Keep up the good work 👏👏👏
Thanks 🙂
very nice. keep up good work!
Thanks for the support!
Nice bass from 1010 BB ;-)
Thanks, can never go wrong with a trusty 808 sample!
ALL JUNGLE IS MASSIVE This is great! Subscribed
Big up! Much love
Sounds awesome! What is the controller on the left? Are you using it to control the Octatrack or Blackbox or both? Subbed
Thanks a lot 🙏. Its a presonus Atom hooked up to the Blackbox. In my opinion the layout is near perfect for using the BB
@@wddsmusic Yeah, that looks great, i just got a Blackbox, are you just using the Atom to Launch clips/samples or can you map more parameters?
@@stevecautious Pads for launching clips/sequences and the top 4 knobs are mapped to the the fx and filter. Its super easy to map as well which is nice. Especially after mapping things to the octatrack which requires the manual 😅
@@wddsmusic I have an Octatrack mk1 too but i haven't tried using a controller for it. Mate, i'm listening to this again on headphones and it sounds lovely!
@@stevecautious thanks a lot. Glad you are a fan 😊
🔥
wow..I see it in this way too!!!
