Bulgarian producer Lyubomir Lakovski (Lew to his friends) came to us by that time worn method, the MySpace Friend Request: who’s this geezer? Okay, add. Lets just check him out. Oh, this stuff’s pretty good. At that point he was producing bouncy Ninja Tune influenced jams, but when we decided to pass through his page again about 8 months later here was a playlist full of fat wonky joys.

Lew’s tracks have been getting some of the biggest responses of any of our material, and what’s more interesting is they’re all basically improvised, as we discovered when we asked him if he wanted to make any tweaks before release. “No es posible” was the reply. Lew doesn’t deny the influence of 1000names on his sound, and to be fair those guys were our introduction to the beats scene as well, along with many others. But this is how scenes are built and it’s the relative isolation of Bulgaria out on the edge of the EU (at the opposite end to Glasgow, where other interesting shit is going on) that has allowed it to develop a beats scene with real popularity.
