OurKid
Guangzhou | ANTH Takeover
Guangzhou's ANTH Takeover is serving grime, UK rap, and bass music, because nothing says global underground like a Chinese warehouse rocking to Stormzy at 149 BPM. OurKid's DJ set is that beautiful chaos where genres blur and we're all trying to keep up with the rapid-fire bars and sub drops. The atmosphere is electric, with crowd energy high and a sound system that does justice to those gritty beats. With an average BPM of 149.8 and a wide range from 128 to 176, this set spans grime and UK bass, using keys like 5A and 12A to navigate between bangers.
The energy is low-heavy at 0.6018, mids at 0.3065, highs at 0.0907, emphasizing bass weight and vocal presence over melodic complexity. Mixing is dynamic, with tempo shifts and blends that keep it fresh, while harmonic touches add cohesion. Standout tracks include Dave & Stormzy's 'Clash' as the opening, a grime anthem that sets the tone, and Justin Timberlake's 'SexyBack (Pokerface Remix)' for its playful edit. Jme's 'P' is a pure grime weapon, while 4am Kru & McDonald & Jannetta's 'Pianos Rising From The Grave' offers a 12-minute, piano-driven journey.
Meek Mill's 'On Me' as the closing track brings hip-hop energy, and 1011's 'Who's on What' adds drill influences. The journey kicks off with 'Clash', peaks with the extended 'Pianos Rising', and closes on the bold 'On Me', a full tracklist that captures grime's raw spirit.
