“With their Wisdom Teeth label, British artists Facta and K-LONE are at the vanguard of a sound that mixes New Age-inspired ambient music with loopy tech house and the staggered swing of Bristol techno. Now split between the West Country hotspot and Brighton, the duo have perfected a balance of carefully considered long-players and wicked club EPs, making Wisdom Teeth one of the most essential labels anywhere in the UK right now. As DJs, their sound leans more towards the clubbier end of Wisdom Teeth—and don’t sleep on K-LONE’s lovely other labels, Sweet ‘n’ Tasty (for garage) and Wych (dubstep-ish)—but they’ve got a slightly softer, slow-and-steady approach than many of their peers from their spiritual home of Bristol. It’s clubby, but it’s more hypnotic and loopy than loud and banging. The duo jump through a fair amount of sounds—and you’ll still get some bass wobbles—touching on tracks from Genius Of Time, Martinez Brothers, Jan Driver, Polygonia and more, bridging not only genres but local scenes and continents. There’s a measured and steady touch to the way they DJ, like musicians who know the instruments like the back of their hand, and as always, it’s a pure pleasure to hear them put tracks together like only they can.”
