Kode9 presents Hyperdub

Emerging from the 1990s underground of pirate radio, smoke-thick basements and renegade academia, Kode9 has become one of the UK's most singular forces. Author of the formative book Sonic Warfare (2010), which analyses the politics of frequency, he has, as producer, theorist and founder of Hyperdub, shaped the trajectory of contemporary bass music, championing innovations that bridge jungle, footwork, UK garage, gqom, dubstep and sounds yet to be named. Hyperdub's catalogue, launching Burial and nurturing artists like Jessy Lanza, DJ Rashad and Laurel Halo, remains a lodestar for the experimental and the club-ready alike. In his Hyperdub takeover sets, Kode9 showcases the label's legacy of more than twenty years, from its best known records to deep-cut gems, with a restless, future-facing energy.
