Wild City #262: Pia Collada B2B Stain (Future Funk: The One Year Dance)

With just over a year of existence, the party-throwers Future Funk have begun to dominate the nightlife of New Delhi – hosting parties that go beyond the usual fare of house and techno to dedicate nights to footwork, breaks and hip-hop. Even their next, on June 19, sees Taru Dalmia aka Delhi Sultanate jump in with Sanil Sudan aka Tyrell Dub Corp, and joined by the likes of Akashi and DARN, to celebrate the sounds of dub.

The event comes at the heels of Future Funk's first anniversary, which they celebrated with 'The One Year Dance', from which they are sharing a soundsystem-celebrating mix between Pia Collada and Stain as their Wild City mix.

The mix is a great instance of a B2B set managing to be cohesive, as it's connected with low-pressure basslines running under snappy electronic drums, while showcasing two distinct yet complementary styles. Pia Collada takes attention to percussive interplays and celluloid samples to interject Stain's bass-heavy drops that move through eras and styles within dub music – creating an overall colourful mix without abandoning the dedicated style.

"This mix is a balance between chaotic basslines and dub heavy grooves to keep the crowd locked, engaged and educated with soundsystem music." – Stain
