This edition of Hot Picks features Rigby on the Run, a faceless force emerging from the Vienna-based Studio Bahöo crew.
With no name or backstory attached, the music speaks loudest. Rigby’s debut EP’ Rug Rally’ is a love letter to the UK underground, breaks, garage, jungle, dub and early rave influences all stitched together with proper depth. It’s part two of Studio Bahöo’s seven-part vinyl series, and it hits the sweet spot between nostalgia and now.
Tracks like ‘Shakul’, ‘Blossom Archives’ and ‘River Lea’ are heavy on low-end, rich in detail and full of soul. This is music that feels lived-in, made for dimly lit rooms and 3am connections.
And the picks? As deep as the music. Rigby pulls from the full spectrum: Ivy Lab’s emotional touch, Tour Maubourg’s warm house, Conducta’s slick garage, dub weight from Mala, Fernanda Porto’s golden era DnB and beyond. It’s not about hype; it’s about feeling.
Tour Maubourg – Ode to Love
Classic Tour Maubourg, just re-discovered that one and absolutely love the warm and calming vibe to it.
1tbsp · MC Pânico – Isso
Cannot not dance to this one, love those weird bouncing vocals. Is so.
Wretla – tH136reCT_qaDj
Imagine Tom VR and Binary Digit had a child – probably something as stunning as this one would come out. Genius.
Ivy Lab – Precious
Head full, heart soft. Such a clean yet vibrating interlude.
Conducta – Handle With Care
Proper garage, reminds me of sooo many good musical memories combined.
Headache – Business Opportunities
“The Head Hurts but the Heart Knows the Truth” is the perfect title for that absolutely wonderful album. This tune especially hits hard – pure poetry with fantastic instrumentals.
Fernanda Porto – Sambassim (DJ Patife Remix)
Pure summer vibes. Old-school drum and bass the way it used to be—simple and real. Total nostalgia but still hits fresh.
Mala · Spen G – Anti War Dub
Such a raw, dub‑rooted anthem! The bass is that old, proper, thick dub sound—zero nonsense.
Jesse Bru – Autumn Rain
Warm and dusty, with that feeling that the track’s about to fully open up, let you all the way in—but it doesn’t. It holds back, stays a little closed off and that’s what makes it special.
Ivy Lab - Innocence
It’s all about those lush pads and synths—they carry the whole track, yet the crisp vocals cut right through and give it the perfect contrast. Such a vibe.
There’s nothing forced about Rigby’s selections; they just feel right.
Music that moves, heals and reminds you of something you can’t quite name, just like their own productions.
Get into the playlist, grab the record, and keep an ear on Studio Bahöo; they’re quietly doing something special.
