Eris Drew and Octo Octa will release a Fabric Presents mix next month.

Partners in life and music, Drew and Octo Octa, real name Maya Bouldry-Morrison, used the mix to dig deep into their vinyl collection before recording it in their cabin in the forest of New Hampshire, United States.

Over the course of nearly 70 minutes, they span house, bass, UK hardcore, and trance, selecting 21 tracks, some of which have been in their collections for decades. Records by D’Menace, Marascia, Thursday Club, and white labels like Global Method will be available digitally for the first time.

Also included are two new original productions from the artists respectively. Bouldry-Morrison’s contribution, “River,” is first to appear in the mix and draws from religious connotations, with repetitive angelic vocals echoing over her signature breakbeat style. Drew’s “Reactiv-8,” available now as a single, appears towards the end.

“This mix is about letting go and trusting that change is good during a time when the very idea of hope is under challenge,” Drew and Bouldry-Morrison explain. “We are collage artists, so themes are woven throughout the mix, with narratives reappearing via our use of drops, scratches, doubles.”

Rising through the queer American DJ circuit, Drew and Bouldry-Morrison share multiple decades between them actively participating within the dance music community. They’re known for connecting their music on both a mental and physical level, drawing on themes of rituals, witchcraft, and shamanism. The transformative experience is reflected within their motto, “Your body is powerful. Be who you wanna be. Let your body be free,” which can be found on the vinyl and CD artwork.
