New York-based producer and hardcore.disko.records founder stussyb delivers a hypnotic breakbeat groove with his latest single “Back Around”, scheduled for July 4th as part of his mission to merge pulse-pounding rhythms with striking visual artistry. The Manchester-born artist channels three decades of rave culture into this lower-tempo offering, trading his signature high-octane energy for a sultrier take on his breakbeat-house hybrid sound.
Built around mesmerizing vocal loops and synth textures that glisten like sweat on a basement club’s walls, “Back Around” reveals stussyb’s maturation as a producer while maintaining his foundational love for the raw energy of ’90s trailblazers like N-Joi and Armand Van Helden. The track’s DNA splices classic rave nostalgia with contemporary production polish, creating what might be the most sophisticated entry yet in his growing catalog.
Recorded solo in his NYC studio, the single exemplifies hardcore.disko.records’ ethos of audiovisual immersion, arriving alongside a vibrant music video. More than just a dance track, “Back Around” represents Stussyb’s ambitious vision to build a label that honors dance music’s history while pushing its boundaries – a mission informed by his unique journey from ’90s rave floors to media professional to label impresario. With this release, Stussyb doesn’t just look back around at dance music’s roots, but charges forward into its future.
With ‘Back Around,’ stussyb distills three decades of rave history into a seductive, breakbeat-laced groove that pulses with both nostalgia and forward-thinking finesse
