20 shows. Yes 20. We're really racking them up. Following on from the jaw droppingly gorgeous showcase from Ion Driver last time (if you ain't already download that) we present the Nymate Association.

SHOWCASE
Nymate Association consists of 2 Hungarian gentleman living in the countryside. Nymus (Tamas Jacso) and dr.Telsa (Adam Reiner), classmates who became friends. Nymus's influences come from early electronica, Trance, Progressive House and Techno until around 98 when he discovered Drum & Bass. dr.Tesla got his fix from abstract Hip-Hop, classic Nu-Skool Breaks and Drum & Bass. The two of them approach music from different points of view, with Nymus being the live performer and dr.Telsa the DJ. Their favourite artists include the almighty Aphex Twin, Tipper (particularly his Surrounded and Holding Pattern albums), Radioactive Man and pretty much anything Si Begg has ever touched. (And who's to blame them).

As far as releases go for these guys, they had their first out on Audio Aubergine, a remix of Greg Scrase's Koko. They followed that up with 2 original productions (and you can really hear the Tipper influences in them) on Audio Aubergine: Postholocen and Vagzeg. Since then (and when MANTIS noticed them I might add) they released the wicked Stractic EP (along with the Stractic Remixed EP) and a remix of label mate DST's Csillag.

With forthcoming releases on Subgrade (with a stomping remix of Kodek's Make A Score) and another EP (the Magnet EP) on Digital Distortions these guys just command space in your record box. You've heard tracks from them in the show before and it's with great pleasure that for our 20th show we showcase Nymate Association. Expect bass, glitch, electro, techno and whob.

Lock on from 6PM UK Time this Saturday live on www.brap.fm

REST OF DA SHOW
Bleeps, drones, beats, clicks, bass and the usual hour presented by DVNT. Fresh and forthcoming bits from Maschinen Musik, Byetone, Pathic, Paul Blackford, Posthuman, and the new single from Primal Scream. And who knows what else...
