Alternate

27/03/2025

We’ve been attending and DJing at since 2011, as well as hosting numerous ‘launch’ parties in Bristol, Reading and Bath over the years with artists such as Shy FX, Calibre, Goldie, Oneman, Flava D, Zinc, Chloe Robinson (fka Barely Legal), Strategy and Plastician to name a few.

Outlook Festival has always been a bit of ‘Mecca’ to us - It was always THE festival to attend every year. It inspired us so much, that we’ve now even started our own festival ().

It’s a genuine honour to be invited to host a Saturday prime-time boat party with some real musical dons on the Adriatic Sea!

Tickets for the Alternate boat party sold out in under 24 hours, but it’s not too late to attend the main party- Tickets go up to the next tier next week.

See you there! ☀️

We are excited to announce that ‘Lowaska’ is out now in all major platforms!

Here’s a bit of context into how it came to fruition and a few words from friends of the label

A big thank you to everyone who’s been supporting the track, and of course to Circumference for entrusting us with the music!

Buy it, stream it on whichever platform you use for your music.

Circumference’s single, “Lowaska,” is out now exclusively on Spotify and Beatport.

A soulful contrast to their usual is a stripped-back emotive roller. Perfectly reflecting the creative diversity we aim to champion at Alternate Recordings.

Premiered via:

Global release: 29th November

For the sixth Alternate Recordings release, we are thrilled to welcome Circumference to the label, who deliver their stunning new single, “Lowaska.”

Having always recognised the Bristol based duo for their techy, minimal D&B sound, we were taken aback when they sent us this track, revealing a deeply soulful side to their productions. It’s a sonic fit for our ethos, as we aim to showcase the creative diversity of the artists we work with.

We’re proud to present “Lowaska,” available exclusively on Spotify and Bandcamp from November 15th.

Swipe for a preview.

We are excited to announce our fifth release; ALTR005, featuring the talented and multi-faceted producer Soul Method on the buttons, alongside one of the South West’s most versatile lyricists, Griz-O.

‘Constellations’ was one of the first tracks that prompted us to start a label to provide a platform for artists to have the freedom to be creative! Constellations captures the essence of that perfectly in this vibrant and uplifting slice of soulful, summery hip-hop.

Pre-save on Spotify now! Usual place for the 🔗 or comment/DM and we’ll sort you out!

“If your chest ain’t rattling, it ain’t happening.

I can’t believe 20yrs has passed since I was standing outside clubs in Bristol with Blazey till the early hours handing out flyers for the first Subloaded, trying my best to explain to people what dubstep was! To celebrate 20yrs later with Subloaded family from past present and future is like a dream I never thought would happen. Come join us for a day of chest rattlin’ sub bass and heavy weight selections to celebrate in style!” - Pinch

The legendary Bristol bass-weight institution Subloaded is coming back for it’s 20th anniversary party at Central Warehouse on Saturday 6th July.

Over the Central Warehouse main room (powered by the mighty - Slide 2 for an early system-set-up photo!), Courtyard and The Silo, Pinch and Alternate present 20 Years of Subloaded for all bass and sound system-enthusiasts.
