Taken from the in-demand Shadow Child vaults and appearing on vinyl together for the first time, this two-track 12-inch reissue revisits a pivotal moment in early-2010s club music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFirst released in 2012, \u003cstrong\u003eString Thing\u003c\/strong\u003e marked Shadow Child's debut under the alias on Claude VonStroke's influential Dirtybird label. Driven by haunting string lines, tough low-end pressure and crisp, propulsive house percussion, the track quickly made an impression on the dancefloor, attracting support from Eats Everything and VonStroke. Its combination of raw club energy, UK bass influences and stripped-back house rhythms became a defining part of Shadow Child's early sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Only One\u003c\/strong\u003e followed in 2013 on Dirtybird's \u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e compilation, offering a darker, more atmospheric take on bass-driven club music. Brooding synths, hip-hop-inspired swagger and a weighty, club-focused groove give the track its own distinctive character. Together, these productions capture the moment when UK producers were pushing garage-influenced, bass-heavy sounds into the wider international house and tech house scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing two sought-after early productions in one vinyl release, \u003cstrong\u003eBeginnings Vol 1\u003c\/strong\u003e is a welcome return to the foundations of Shadow Child's sound. With DJ support from Eats Everything, Claude VonStroke, Zane Lowe, Jamie Jones, Richie Hawtin, Pete Tong and Danny Howard, this is a strong addition for fans of Dirtybird, UK house and underground dance music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA1 – String Thing\u003cbr\u003eB1 – The Only One\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Buy This Vinyl?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo early Shadow Child standouts brought together on a two-track 12-inch reissue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures the 2012 debut release “String Thing” and 2013 Dirtybird compilation cut “The Only One”.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst time on vinyl together, taken from the Shadow Child vaults.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEssential for fans of Dirtybird, bass-driven house, UK club music and early-2010s tech house.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupported by leading DJs including Eats Everything, Claude VonStroke, Jamie Jones and Richie Hawtin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Food Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59105679442294,"sku":"YUM75A","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/9042\/9781\/files\/Shadow_Child_-_Beginnings_Vol_1_12_Inch_Vinyl_Food_Music_Side_A.jpg?v=1792768928","url":"https:\/\/www.nothingventuredvinyl.co.uk\/products\/shadow-child-beginnings-vol-1","provider":"Nothing Ventured Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
