im from oakland but my ties to chicago run deep. Being signed to moveltraxx as well which is one of the most active and respected labels in baltimore club/jersey club/juke/footwork and putting out our own juke/160 EPs has helped establish us.

We have a EP from dj phil of teklife and a remix from DJ Manny dropping soon.
One of the brehs in the photography thread is always posting pics from that group on IG :ohhh: pretty sure he's in Chicago but I may be mistaken, he definitely runs with a footwork/juke music crowd though

What's juke and footowork music sound like?
Can you post any mixes or compilations I can get a feel from?

This is our radio show we run monthly where we sometimes start with some baltimore/jersey club/house and move into footwork as the mixes go on. every 3rd saturday of the month

What's the difference between juke and footwork? And why do I get ringtone vibes from this?

Have you heard of Afrodrill?
It's Drill rap over Jersey club beats but which uses samples from African-produced music.

not familiar with this until you showed me, thank you for putting me on.

Juke tends to be from 145-160bpm, its normally four to the floor like most classic house but the basslines vary in a way that is almost like raggae dub , juke sort of serves as a link between footwork and ghetto house.

some examples i fukk with are here





Footwork tends to be a bit more minimal in its production and also tends to be more battle oriented, its sort of hard to explain as im not from chicago so i try to get this is accurate as possible, but the way the clicks, hi hits etc are on the song dictates the speed and syncopation between feet and rhythm when its being played. here are a couple of video examples

I never thought I would be signed to a major dance label while running my own. And to be able to have my own quarterly night here to perform with my partner doing something I love. Appreciate the support homie

Baltimore is a very fun town for artists lowkey so I’m sure you’ll find some people that’ll appreciate what you’ve got going on. Break a leg out there breh :tu:
