BEATRICE M. 'MIDNIGHT SWIM EP' 12"

For their debut EP on Tectonic, Beatrice M. drops four deep, dubby cuts bringing
weighted bass energy together with techno sensibilimes and advanced percussive
manoeuvres. Elegant but powerful tracks built for sound systems and curious ears!

Midnight Swim is an ode to the “sooer” club sounds, repemmve aquamc grooves that
remind Beatrice of their go-to sport: swimming. No phones, just back and forth in the
cold water, se]ling into a mechanical groove. The opening track, Oval, carries its mtle
from the appreciamon of soo edges, li]le distormon, minimal rhythmic pa]ern.
Upon hearing Pinch’s tune 136 Trek, (itself a nod to Zinc’s 138 Trek), Beatrice decided
to name a tune 132 Trek, to conmnue the lineage of their musical heritage. The tune
was already called Trek because it was made aoer moving from France and spending
their first months in London, and realising “everything is a bloody trek”!!

The EP’s mtle track is about warm-up music and enjoying the earlier hours of the
party - a quick immersion and then mme for bed, rather than banging club tracks all
night long. Beatrice likes to show up early at the club, watch it fill and then leave as it
packs out. Midnight Swim is a dip into a roller.
The last tune of the EP features Sub Basics, the first armst to have a vinyl release on
Beatrice’s own label, Bait, and one of their biggest musical inspiramons. Sub Basics’
immersive progressive sounds fit simultaneously in the deep techno world and the
dubstep world. A beaumful in-between.
