While I'll admit it's certainly not my favorite Ivy release, I do hopelessly have the 3rd track Left With You stuck in my head for like 5 days in a row. Olo and Blockhead aren't doing it for me as much, but I have no doubt Ivy would find an icy way to incorporate them into a mix.

Interesting release, thanks for posting. I'm probably digging Blockhead most out of the three. Definitely think Olo is the weakest though.

Left with you is nice and flowy!

Oh yeah! Trying, least a wee bit, to get more active here. Good to have a thriving DJ community.

Blockhead I could at least see in a mix potentially, but yeah not sure what I'd do with Olo unless we was getting way way off the rails and a bit surreal.

Left With You is such a vibe though.

Always been big on Ivy. They feel like their own genre -- truly pioneers in the post-dubstep / future beats scene. Very excited to catch em in a couple months. Been on the list for a hot minute!

I've always seen Ivy Lab more as DnB to be honest but I also haven't really delved into their catalogue much, maybe I should have more of a dig around see what is up.

Nothing wrong with getting off the rails a bit for a while. I quite like branching out into some weird esoteric shit for a few tracks before suddenly pulling the rug and slapping back into something else :D

Got any other communities to recommend? I haven't actually searched for DJ specific ones yet, I've mainly been posting dubstep xD
