Sheffield's Hopeworks has become an essential melting pot for the cultural and musical future of a city whose electronic heritage has surpassed its industrial one. As creative director & resident DJ Lo Shea, returns to the vinyl arm of this warehouse institution with a blistering new EP Expertly programmed modern sonics possessed by the spirit of 90's rave & the UK's characteristic Bass influence abound here. From the syncopated and undulating 'A Way Through' to the straight up ravery of 'Mark X' on the A Side, to the hypnotic tribalism of 'Primitive Operations' we're looking at a crisply crafted modern Techno suite of the highest calibre. Bristol's Hodge handles a weighty remix of B1, amping the atmospherics and rounding off an EP of precision club tools par excellence.

Sheffield's Hopeworks has become an essential melting pot for the cultural and musical future of a city whose electronic heritage has surpassed its industrial one. As creative director & resident DJ Lo Shea, returns to the vinyl arm of this warehouse institution with a statement of intent & a lithe follow up to last year's Deep Draw EP Following his successful Seaghdha series, Lo Shea continues to flesh out a distinctive sound which is informed and inspired by all those late nights. Expertly programmed modern sonics possessed by the spirit of 90's rave & the UK's characteristic Bass influence. Northern Lights leads the charge - a mechanised, syncopated stepper that could easily be a lost SunkLo release Elsewhere soundscape interludes sit alongside atmospheric, precision club jams, with the B Side struggling to contain the two stout A Side cuts it has to hold in place. A recent Resident Advisor podcast, winning plaudits across the board as well as away games for Phonica & Dext are certainly cementing a assured future for Lo Shea & Hopeworks !

Hopeworks opened just under two years ago, in the heart of Sheffield's former industrial centre This empty warehouse has since become the hedonistic epicentre of the city's vibrant all night clubbing scene As chief resident and director of Hopeworks, Lo Shea has built the ethos of the space from the ground up. Having hosted an enviable list of international guest artists as well as showcasing the best of tomorrow's talent, Hopeworks has become an essential melting pot for the cultural and musical future of a city whose electronic heritage has surpassed its industrial one. A platform to release the music inspired by the space and its loyal crowd, not to mention the artists who have contributed to its success, makes perfect sense. Who better to take the helm of this debut voyage than Lo Shea himself... Following his successful Seaghdha series, Liam continues to flesh out a distinctive sound that doesn't easily fit into genre divides, but which is informed and inspired by all those late nights. Often functional, always perfectly weighted - his productions have - given the diverse & astonishing energy of the space that feeds them - gained support from DJ's and dancers the world over... This is 100% Mixed In Sheffield & believe us, Hope, works.
