Joy Orbison
Still Slipping Vol. 1 LP Mixtape vinyl

With Still Slipping Vol. 1, Joy Orbison moves away from the dancefloor as a sole point of reference, weaving UK garage, house, jungle and drum & bass into a personal, free-flowing mixtape. Rather than treating these sounds as separate genres, Peter O’Grady draws on them as parts of a shared musical vocabulary.

Phone conversations, voice notes and recordings of friends and family sit alongside fractured rhythms and weighty basslines, giving the mix an intimate quality that balances humour with melancholy. From the garage swing of “swag w/ kav” to the restless textures of “layer 6”, O’Grady favours subtle shifts and unexpected turns over straightforward club formulas. A snapshot of UK electronic music that feels as connected to everyday life as it does to the dancefloor.
