Bristol's Dundundun to release their second EP Future Hope featuring poet, visual artist and filmmaker Nadeem Din-Gabisi. The six-piece band return on Worm Discs following their sold-out self-titled EP. Originally conceived as a four-to-the-floor banger in a pre-pandemic-world, Future Hope was written in a small studio in NE Bristol. From the outset, what was originally a jam was quickly molded into shape with the emphasis on leaving space for a vocal -- awaiting someone like-minded who could use the piece as a platform to share our views as a collective. London-based artist Nadeem Din-Gabisi was the perfect candidate. His flow, charisma, and delivery combined with his own experience as a new father made him the obvious choice to breathe life into his conscious and conscientious lyrics, reflecting a mood of optimism in what seems to be a precarious world. Future Hope is a message of positivity. Forget about all the bullshit and corruption, there's beauty and love in things to be held on to. Make the most out of every situation to bring about positive change. The single is accompanied by the ecstatic Afro-Brazilian fusion of "Can Do" and the percussion-heavy transcendence of "Midnight Manouvres". A remix from the now Bristol-based world-renowned DJ and producer Red Rack'em completes the EP -- keeping the earthy, hopeful feel of the OG but taking it up a notch into a more jazzy, swingy place.

Formed from a collective of Bristol's finest musicians, Dundundun combine thumping rhythms with jazz and electronics to create uplifting soundscapes and dirt infused dance music. Packed with a wealth of experience, Dundundun members have spent the past decadetouring the world and darkening studios with The Heavy, Alice Russell, Unforscene, DJ Die, Ben Westbeech, Pete Josef, Dele Sosimi, and Ishmael Ensemble to name but a few -- bringing a rich heritage of sound straight out of Bristol's thriving music scene. Electronic, arpeggiating multi-layered vibrations born from a mutual respect of past musical idioms and future musical legacy. Dundundun are: Justin Fellows (drums); Jackson Lapes (percussion); Benji Muscat (bass); Dorian Childs Prophet (keys, synths); Ben Plocki (baritone sax); and Brian Hargreaves (tenor sax).
