has been creating movie content for us. All we asked was that he kept it 100% in-camera. This winter we'll be taking an Audio/Visual tour on the road... (1/2)
This week marks the 1st birthday of our ‘Infinite Falling Ground’ album… And in a deeply humbling turn of fate we’re honoured to announce the celebration of that anniversary with the news that the project is in consideration for a Grammy nomination (Best Dance/Electronic Album)
Shoutout to the prick on the

Can we swing your idea of what an Ivy Lab show is about to the left a little? Is it okay if we shift into more cinematic territory? What if we explore some dark, at times unsettling themes? We invite you to Infinite Falling Ground. Tix on-sale 22/10:
🔺TONIGHT 🔺We’re gonna do another secret old school DnB set in Los Angeles… Not liquid this time tho…. Thinking about digging out them circa-millennium era experimental/drumfunk/rufige/autonomic style joints …. That weird distopyian shit ⚗️🪐
We're dropping an E.P on the legendary
@Dirtybird
records this Friday featuring the silliest beat we've ever written + one of the most ominous beats we've written + a fresh Liquid DnB joint…. Basically its a whole mess, but its a joyous mess and comes stright from the heart 💚
yo.. we've written a new EP - it's called 'Everythingmustchange' and it's dropping this Friday. Got some pretty weird beats on there we've been looking forward to sharing with you lot for a minute 🦏

It’s taken 2 years but we’re nearly ready to start unveiling our next experiment. A sequel to IFG… the music wrote itself, the film has been shot... I think we might have made something that delves way deeper than before. We’re nervous but energised... Announcement on Monday...
This beat is called 'Suzuki' .... It's kind of a Joey Beltram x Harlem Spartans experiment, backed with the Boost-Tape-Born track 'Paradise pistol' 🔸 Name your price on Bandcamp + Stream now from the usual spots >> 🦏
Because that’s how we move, and our accountants hate us for it ... We back culture we believe in, and sometimes that takes heavy lifting and deep pockets.. more than happy to be a little more broke when the payoff is growing the ecosystem ✌🏾🦏❤️
We’re dropping 15 tracks before the end of the year. 5 this week / 5 in Nov / 5 in Dec. “Fidget E.P” up first THIS FRIDAY 🚩Sorry for the quiet summer, but the stillness is done now. We’re coming HARD this winter. PS. Covid has hurt pockets, so these are ‘name your price’

Doing these streams has provided us with purpose, in an otherwise chaotic time... its amongst the most artistically honest projects we've ever worked on. This weeks 5hr special broadcast is one of the most ambitious things we've ever attempted 😰
In January 2022 under the cloud of both of our own distinct crises, we both revealed some deeply held secrets to one another about our habits. By March this LP was written... Infinite Falling Ground out now:

This Friday we drop the 'Teacup E.P' - the 2nd instalment of our 3 part E.P series. Chapter 1 was the sunshine release, this one is way more angry, way more brooding. Oh and we've recruited witty south London rapper Rocks FOE to lace up one of the cuts too. ☠️☠️☠️☠️

This track is titled 'Ghost', aka The Bowsers Castle 303 experiment… we’re going through a bit of a phase shift at the moment and you can expect a ton of genre hopping over this coming winter.

We've been messing about making instrumental drill beats with an electronica twist to 'em ... The first of this batch, called 'Suzuki' drops this Friday backed up with 'Paradise Pistol' on the flip... plan is to drop a single a month till we run out of material/steam ✈️
Been thinking about how Florida couldn’t have an IFG A/V tour date (for boring reasons I won’t trouble y’all with) …. But now thinking maybe we throw something together quick…. Y’all down ? 🧐
Time for some contrast after the recent spell of more subdued music from us. This track is called 'Profit' , and it marks the beginning of a spring/summer of dancefloor orientated singles from the lab....
⚠️ WE'RE TAKING OVER FABRIC... And we're flying Mr.Carmack into London especially for the soiree.

for supporting our efforts on this one.
Feeling pretty unshackled atm - our new single drops this Fri feat. 'NOVV', a kinda emo lofi beats joint + 'NASDAQ' which picks up where 'Suzuki' left off w. some more instrumental drill experimentation. Gonna keep the releases rolling all thru summer 🦏

ticket presale: June 13th, 10am local.
general on-sale: June 14th, 10am local.
We’ve just released a new track, and it’s a bit of an about-turn from ‘Left With You’ which dropped last month … This new one is called ‘Blockhead’ ….. kinda inspired by turn of the millennium bouncy club-rap beats….
This is ‘Press Play’ the title track from our latest E.P that just dropped today on
@Dirtybird
Records 🥚 we also snuck a new DnB joint onto this release, go peep the lot at the usual spots
Fans of our more uptempo early catalogue will find a lot of familiarity in 'Melrose'. Birthed in the rotten-apple & dripping in Avirex; It's a cocky millennial rap beat upgraded to knock hard on festival bass-bins.
Out now on

@Devonanalogue
where we wrote the IFG album. Rise at 10am / hiked around the hills for a couple of hours / got lost in an endless haunted forest / Studio from lunchtime till 4am / Rise and repeat all over again. 3 days later we'd managed to complete 10 tracks.
Tonight in Chicago, we play for the first time in the US as our solo alter egos - Sabre & Stray. We're gonna go back to our roots and draw for our favourite D&B cuts from the last couple of decades - honestly this could get pretty emotional...
@LunarTideFest
who's ready?
LA once again u left us totally spellbound. There were points in that wildly sweaty haze where I fully tuned out & had no concept of being visible to yall at all..utterly selfish dreamstate moments of being consumed by the decibels & darkness alone.. nothing but love for yall ~ G
Whats good people... tickets for Infinite Falling Ground Part II, the audio visual cinematic live show that we do to accompany this recent series of albums are on sale now:
The themes are sombre and it's not gonna be an easy watch... Guess that's what happens when you build art whilst in a dark headspace.... We apologise in advance.... Much Love.

: 'Balaclava' drops this Wednesday // pre-save:
This is Dogma, it was one of the earliest tracks we wrote for IFG. It's an unusual piece of work for us and doesn't feel like an Ivy Lab track in its palette. It's kinda tender, but much like everything from this project; inescapably dripped in melancholy.
Think it’s time we came back to Miami nah ? Might just have to gang up with some young MVP UK talent and make it a co-headline kinda affair what u reckon ?…hmmmm, 😈
maaaan..
@IvyLab_
rockin one of my unreleased bits to this beaming crowd is giving me life rn 🥲 sooo much love and gratitude for everyone in this video ahhhhh!! 💛 more info on the release of this track shortly ✨✨✨

Balaclava is the calling card for the whole project. It's the centre ground amongst all the different cultural, emotional and sonic touchstones we’ve navigated between the LP. She sings ‘I offer you my sweet devotion’ but I don’t think she really means it.
