Manchester’s New Underground: BUFFEE Mix

Pop Bass

In Manchester’s underground, a disparate group of artists – Another Country $$$$, BUFFEE, Crimewave, Mogan and SILVERWINGKILLER – are blurring the lines between bands, DJs and performance art. Bound by a shared ethos and fed up with the predictable, they’re building a DIY communal culture driven by friendship, shared purpose and a desire to upend convention.

Read our profile on the rising scene, and press play on BUFFEE‘s freewheeling 45-minute ride through Janet Jackson, Grimes, Dylan Brady, Basement Jaxx and more.

Who: BUFFEE.

Where: From Bristol, based in Manchester.

What: I work most with electro pop and dubstep.

When: An in-the-car with friends on a beautiful evening kind of mix. It might be a bit of a room-clearer.

Why: Making music inspires me because it’s the most beautiful, fun thing in the world to do with your friends or by yourself.
