Bass stage

UNMUTE has originated in London UK, in a recent search for a new name to start getting new ideas out. Being a DJ since the mid-90’s and collecting vinyl ever since, spanning across broken beat genres of electronic music and drum&bass in particular, he used to play it a lot for the Latvian scene and neighbour Baltic states occasionally. He’s been also taking active part in Latvian hip- hop culture festivals and breakdance jams, learning turntablism for years and even running his own pirate FM radio for a short period of time. It took a few years to grow into “production mood” and move to London where he started experimenting with his own sound which in turn drew the attention away from dance floor music to dub, psychedelic and ambient sound. At some point he joined Parastate.net ambient music community label, which existed few years and invested in ambient scene of Latvia, as well as received good feedback and support from the end recipients, also often representing themselves at chill-out festival stages in Latvia and abroad. It’s been a while now since his first downtempo tunes saw the light and it was time spent getting confidence in the sound and polishing the production skills, while keeping the Viberations Rec. running just as an outlet for various genre mix sets, some of which contained his own tracks every now and then, represented under a different alias. It is time to return to the scene and UNMUTE is currently involved in running a studio in Riga in collaboration with his fellow friends as part of MIRROR NETWORK, as well as producing in his own bedroom studio in London. There are a few performances planned ahead for 2016 and those range between DJ sets, hardware live sets and anything in between, spanning few genres as well.

Devine started in childhood like for most of djs and musicians. Since primary school he started to play music for people. Dev was searching, searching for sounds and music all the time. In 2003 he and hi close friends from the Testone crew started to collect drum and bass records and regularly perform in clubs and various venues with famous artists and djs from abroad and locals. Afterwords in short period of time his own music appeared and he likes to perform it live. Nowadays Devine is into his own projects (mostly techno and ambient) and the new audiovisual project called Mirror Network (drum and bass + various experiments).
