Xample & Lomax – Link 2 The Past
With huge debut albums from Sub Focus and Chase & Status under their belt in the past year or so, it’s time for Ram to move onto their next star (or stars) in the making. Xample and Lomax have both built up impressive back catalogues individually and as a team, they present a force greater [...]
DJ Fresh – Acid Rain
Dj Fresh’s second album “Kryptonite” lands on August 9th and while it’s packed wall-to-wall with anthemic numbers – ranging from vocal fuelled drum n bass to dubstep smashers – it’s “Acid Rain” that jumped out for me as the album’s highlight. Taking a step back from radio-friendly beats and hooks, Fresh returns to his roots [...]
Alex Reece – Basic Principles (Commix rmx) – free download
A Metalheadz classic…remixed by the mighty Commix….for free download…oh yes! With the long-awaited “Recall to Mind” remix album set to land (kinda) soon, Cambridge’s finest have decided to give away this remix for free.

Kabuki – Warrior Soul
I’ve been a fan of Kabuki’s since way back in the Makai days (I was lucky enough to even have him grace my Nerve imprint) and his debut album “Signal To Noise” was a constant on the headphones for a good coupla years. Monday 5th July sees his second album “Warrior Soul” finally land – [...]
Utah Jazz – Skyward Bound
While most of the drum n bass world is setting about stripping back their material, focusing on the whole minimal thing, Utah Jazz has decided to buck the trend – and with this newie, he’s piled on the funk and slowed the BPMs right back to 150ish. The track has a very late 90′s liquid [...]
8 Bits – On Your Mind (Feat Riya)
8 Bits is a new collaborative project between Spinback (one half of the mighty Total Science) and relative newcomer S.P.Y. Total Science are without question, one of the finest production teams to ever exist in the realm of drum n bass and S.P.Y is one of the most interesting drum n bass producers to materialise [...]
Calibre & DRS – Judgement Day
In the realm of drum n bass – there’s no producer quite like Calibre for unleashing top quality rollers – whether they be dark rumblin numbers or big summery vibes like this one, he’s the most consistent producer in the scene by a long shot. Teaming up with regular cohort DRS on this lovely wee [...]

Originally hailing from Glasgow and now based in Brighton, the Future Engineers have been producing some top quality drum n bass on the deeper side of the spectrum since 1997. Past releases on labels such as Good Looking, 720 and Partisan established them as one of the top production units in the scene and after [...]
Guest Mix: Simon D – DnB – May 2010
Simon D is without doubt one of my favourite DJs, we shared a residency at the Art School in Glasgow from 2000-2005 at LiveVEvil and I heard countless amazing sets from him over the years – covering the whole spectrum of drum n bass. He’s still putting together top quality mixes though and we’re proud [...]
