Since first playing at the club almost a decade ago, Chris Davids and Liam Ivory of Maribou State have had two critically acclaimed albums, alongside recent sell-out tours across UK, USA and Europe on the back of -Kingdoms In Colour-. But they never forgot their roots. Since their teenage years they frequented fabric, taking the train down from their homes in Hertfordshire to attend DJ Hype-s legendary -True Playaz- night, experiences that would lay the musical foundations for years to follow.

"In this mix we wanted to create a world of music that in its entirety you wouldn-t expect to hear within the walls of fabric, but would reflect the hours spent before heading to the club; drinks at a friend-s house, the journey into London, travelling on the underground and the anticipation in the build-up beforehand. We captured and used a bunch of field recordings of us re-taking the journey to and from the club to help this narrative. The mix culminates in some original pieces of music that represent our interpretation of fabric-s sound within its walls, peppered with samples from old DJ sets from fabric-s -True Playaz- nights to give the mix a nostalgic feel and reconnect our roots to the club."
The finished work is vibrant, thoughtful and unforgettable. It traverses soul, disco, jazz and funk, before the duo up-the-tempo to bumpier house grooves, tinges of jungle, and their own sublimely crafted electronica. The highlight-heavy compilation includes two brand new Maribou State productions, -Mother- and -Strange Habits-, alongside a delicate and uplifting re-work of Radiohead-s -Reckoner-, all of which are exclusive to -fabric presents-.
