Hospital’s Bristol via Cambridge recruit @Hugh-Hardie steps up for SUNANDBASS Podcast #73. Already building a strong following for his upfront soul music, the young talent has in the last couple of years become a firm pillar in the soulful Drum & Bass scene. His name stands for beautiful compositions that tick all the boxes for home listening whilst still retaining a certain dancefloor je na sais quoi. Currently busy in the studio (when not on busting moves on his board), Hugh has kindly taken the time to put together our latest Podcast, and has chocked it full of exclusives from both his peers and himself. Dig in!

New month, new podcast. SUNANDBASS Podcast #71 comes from @DJNeptune. Known for releases on labels such as Astrophonica, Droppin' Science, Inperspective, Bassbin and Hospital to name a few, Neptune’s music combines funky rhythms and emotive strings with traditional sampling techniques and technological basslines. Neptune is one half of the dynamic duo Fracture & Neptune, who set up Astrophonica in the early 2000s to showcase their visions of what the music was and what they thought it could become. It is now home to daring artists who share that same flair for rhythm and space, enjoy risk-taking and a have thirst for the new. Last summer, Neptune played his maiden set at SUNANDBASS and tore down the dancefloor with his neurofunk sounds of the late ‘90s. This mix continues in that vein, showcasing some of the deeper aspects of said genre while dropping a few bangers from the time too, of course. Much like fine wine, these vintage records need to breathe; the mixes are long and the tunes are given space to do justice to the time that Drum and Bass was arguably at its peak. So please enjoy!

BCee brings something a bit special to this month’s SUNANDBASS Podcast, with a mix of only his music – whether his originals, remixes of his tracks or tracks that he has remixed.

Known as one of the key tastemakers within the scene since the early 90s, he built up his standing and craft with residencies at some of the finest events in the land, namely Fabio and Bukem’s ‘Speed’ and the infamous Metalheadz Blue Note Sessions. He’s also no stranger to the world of production, having released tunes on labels such as Metalheadz, Metro, 31 and Advanced in the Drum & Bass world, and also for the legendary Watergate, the Berlin based house and techno label. Although never stepping away from the music, or losing his love for it, he held back on the DJing for some time, but luckily 2017 saw him return to the fray, and the future now promises plenty more of DJ Lee, something music should definitely be grateful for! And here he is with nearly 90 minutes of goodness for the SUNANDBASS Podcast. A fine blend of old and new, light and smooth, it’s a perfect start to 2018.

September’s 2017 SUNANDBASS Podcast comes from a scene stalwart. He’s a producer, DJ and promoter who has put in some serious miles to help shape the musical Drum & Bass scene into what it is today – this is Ben Soundscape. Initially making his names as part of Bristol based duo ‘The Insiders’ in the early 2000s, Ben and production partner Joe signed tracks with almost every single heavy hitting label in the scene to great fanfare. Alongside producing tracks, he runs his label ‘Intrigue Music’ that he set up in 2009 – an imprint that has become known for showcasing some of the biggest names in the scene, alongside numerous fresh up and coming talents.

SUNANDBASS Podcast edition 61 comes from DJ de la Haye, one of the leading ladies in drum and bass down under.

Her sets are a diverse mix sure to set any dance floor alight, from rolling liquid, to tech step to dub & ragga beats, there is something to please all tastes. Before discovering jungle in 1996, her musical influences ranged from punk to soul to reggae & hip hop, which surely have had a hand in the wide array of music she covers in her sets. De la Haye frequently plays around NZ and Australia, as well as running various club nights over the last 9 years such as the monthly Junkard sessions, her contribution to the Brisbane club scene has been an incredible asset.

Kazakhstan born Alexey Fuifanov has been releasing music under his Command Strange moniker for over ten years, consistently honing and developing his craft. With his first release on V Recordings back in 2013, he has since signed with the legendary label, dropping a selection of cuts in 2015 and 2016 to dramatic effect with his trademark combination of jungle, jump-up and soul vibes woven throughout the tracks. With plenty more just about to drop, including a killer track with Alibi on a soon drop to SUNANDBASS x V collaboration, it was the perfect time to bring him in for a SUNANDBASS Podcast to show us just what he’s up to right now.

Blocks & Escher have become names synonymous with quality, depth, musicianship – but perhaps most importantly, art. Possibly a dying attribute in dance music today, yet one that could be argued is more important than ever, whether stepping into the studio individually, or as a duo, Blocks & Escher have become known as artists who truly craft their own sound and path within the confines and frameworks of both music, and Drum & Bass. With a string of releases on quality labels, it was truly after the formation of their own Narratives label, that Drum & Bass was forced to take stock of what the duo were doing and finally get the props they had so long deserved. With an album now wrapped up and ready to drop on Metalheadz, everybody will soon be singing their praises and lifting their stock worldwide. We’re extremely privileged they have recorded the new Podcast for us – it’s time to drop in deep with Blocks & Escher.

SUNANDBASS Podcast #58 comes from man of the moment Serum! Already loved and revered in the more ravey corners of the scene, 2016 was destroyed by Serum, with killer tracks on 31 Records, V, Philly Blunt and many others. With a vast discography stretching all the way back to 2004, in recent times he has really stamped his mark on Drum & Bass, and become known to produce devastating tracks for all corners of the music. His first appearance at SUNANDBASS in 2016 was no different, and his new Podcast here gives us another taste once again!

Podcast #57 comes from one of the founders of SUNANDBASS, DJ Delicat. It was in 2003 that he and the other founders made their first forays into San Teodoro for what has now become, as we fast-forward into 2017, one of the most well-known and respected Drum & Bass festivals in the world. His love for Drum & Bass was forged in the mid 90’s thanks to being passed tape packs from his English school exchange, none other than Utah Jazz. This burgeoning passion was soon cemented in infamous venues around South Germany, such as the legendary underground club Vibration in Forst, and the huge rave Mecca, MS Connexion in Mannheim. In 2017 his hunger for the music is as great as ever. He continues to enjoy the full spectrum of Drum & Bass, always seeking out new and diverse sounds with a completely open ear to whatever style or sub genre it may be. As he currently crosses Australia and New Zealand for the SUNANDBASS Tour, this mix gives a snapshot into the music he’s currently enjoying and playing, and illustrates the SUNANDBASS ethos and vibe perfectly in a one hour mix – check it, DJ Delicat on the ones and twos!

Releasing since 1997, with two LPs and countless 12“s and EPs on labels such as Good Looking, Metalheadz, Soul:R, Bassbin and his own Secret Operations label, Seba has been a tour de force in Drum & Bass for some time. Initially known for his early, more atmospheric work with Good Looking amongst others, he’s also regularly shown other sides to his pallete, with deep, dark and heavy tracks also sitting comfortably next to his initial work. One factor often tends to remain constant though, and that is the effortless style he shows when working with breaks, a skill often seemingly lost in modern Drum & Bass. Also a varied selector when playing live, he steps in for SUNANDBASS Podcast #49 and shows us what he’s currently up to and enjoying musically. Dive in and enjoy the sounds of Seba!

SUNANDBASS Podcast #48 comes from 'All Crews'. Here's what they had to say about the mix: The ethos behind All Crews is to celebrate everyone’s talents. The crew's members include: JB Raw of London From The Rooftops, DJ Chef of Kool FM, DJ Staunch from Rude FM and All Crew's author Brian Belle-Fortune. Our sun-kissed logo was designed by Nadine Minagawa and The Voice himself Mr singing Fats accompanies us on this journey through SUNANDBASS, the special festival where we all bonded. And each Crew member plays a different SUNANDBASS venue. JB Raw ushers in warm liquid La Cinta's beach vibes. Chef entertains Bal Harbour's bikini & bass, pool and palm trees. Staunch militantly marches us straight into Ripping's Darkroom. And Brian 'No Prisnors' Belle-Fortune devastates Ambra Night. Although we all live in London, all the mixes were recorded separately by each DJ, without knowing which tracks the others were playing. So it says much that no one selected the same tune. It's down to the talents of DJ Chef, engineering the mix, ensuring all the levels were correct, arranging Fats' words punctuating the music in exactly the right places. This is All Crew's Bad Company collective. As DJ Staunch explains, "Expect to hear the mix and with each chapter think, 'Actually it's all about this style, that's what makes this culture so special. Each soul has their own take on it and we get to tell the same story a million different ways. I know when I hear you lot spin I'm like fuck me.' " It's an honour to be called upon to play this SUNANDBASS podcast. And it's a delight to contribute to the SUNANDBASS Family. See you in September. And remember, All Crew Muss Big Up!

Bryan Gee has been involved in music since his youth, starting off as a reggae soundsystem selector and pirate radio DJ. After already starting a prolific DJ career, he and long time friend Jumping Jack Frost started the infamous V Recordings in around 1993. V Recordings soon became one of the most important labels in Drum & Bass, releasing some of the first tunes from new artists like Roni Size, Dillinja, Die & Krust and many others. He was also responsible for one of the most important weekly nights in London in the late 90’s and early 2000’s called Movement. Known as a home of brand new, quality music, this was the place to go to check out what was fresh. This just serves to highlight what a love and ear Bryan Gee has for Drum & Bass – and this is still the case today, highlighted in his new mix for the SUNANDBASS Podcast!

Matt’s music has been of a consistent quality since he first made his debut back in 2010. Since then he has continued to grace a plethora of quality labels such as Soul:R, CIA Deep Kut, Commercial Suicide and Cylon to name but a few.

And with tracks such as Leave and The View to his name, the demand just seems to be growing. With another stellar EP set to drop on Spearhead shortly and plenty of other music in the pipeline, LSB looks set to keep gracing our ears with musical gems.

Back with a bang, back with a bump – however it is for you, welcome home after SUNANDBASS 2015, we hope you’re feeling A OK! Hopefully you’re not on your last legs, but if you are, we have the perfect remedy for you: Last Life. Not much is known about Last Life, but we’re very lucky to have him grace us for SUNANDBASS Podcast #41. His debut EP for Cylon is coming soon, test presses are already approved – so keep your eyes peeled for that, and meanwhile, enjoy the sounds of Last Life – it’s the first you’ll have heard from him, but surely not the last…

SUNANDBASS Podcast #40, and it’s the sound of sunshine with @djpatife! Just a few days until SUNANDBASS 2015, and what a perfect way to bring you to the Island for your yearly dose of beats, beach and bass. DJ Patife is a name synonymous with drum and bass and Brazil. Involved in the scene there since the 90’s, his unique take on the sound began to reach further afield after he and fellow countrymen bought us the ‘The Brasil EP’ on V Recordings in 2001. An exciting, fresh release coming from a new angle at the time, the EP opened the door for the Brazilian take on drum and bass to reach that little bit further, and to help spread their vibe to the world. And now as he steps up for our Podcast, he’s delivered a brand new mix full of exclusives to once again show us how he does it! Dive in, we’ll be seeing you soon!

Just over one month to go until SUNANDBASS 2015, and our new Podcast comes from none other than @marcusintalex. His closing set of SUNANDBASS 2014 showed us exactly what the festival is all about – but not content with just blowing the roof off with that one, he’s back once again to show us how it’s done. This one is chock full of freshness – good luck to the tracklist spotters! Best thing to do is stick this on and get yourself thoroughly in the mood for the fun that awaits us in one months time! Enjoy!

SUNANDBASS Podcast #37 is upon us, and joining us for this months instalment is none other than Metalheadz’ @Jubei-1. Known for rolling it out, whether on the ones and twos or in his productions, he has spliced together some of his favourite tracks, new and old for this mix. Expertly blending smooth, tough, musical and hard, he shows why he is often thought of as one of the best DJs on the scene, able to put together a wide variety of tracks whilst still maintaining a common theme throughout. With a new EP for Headz just over the horizon, we thought now would be a good time for him to show us what he’s about, and he’s done that in spades here once again. Tune in, zone out and check Jubei.

Spring is in the air – and it feels like the countdown to SUNANDBASS 2015 is truly underway! What better way to celebrate this than to have a brand new SUNANDBASS Podcast from some of the biggest legends in the drum and bass scene – Total Science! Releasing records together since 1996 (and individually since 1991!), the guys have since graced the scene with 3 LP’s and hundreds of singles and EP’s, their contribution to the drum and bass landscape both essential and highly influential. Their SUNANDBASS Podcast is typical of their style when behind the 1’s and 2’s. It’s absolutely chock full of fresh and unheard tracks – and ranges from the more melodic side of the spectrum, through to the harder and more rolling style too. Total Science just like good music and you can hear it here - if you want to get to know some of the tracks that are sure to be new drum and bass essentials in the coming months, check this!

Long time friends of the SUNANDBASS family, Kred & Handy (aka Matt Elms and Andy Easton) have rolled out this month’s Podcast. They’re an extended part of the family, having first attended SUNANDBASS in 2006. In 2008 they got to show people their cards musically, playing the now highly coveted opening night slot at La Posta – and it was a night to remember, with people dancing on the pool tables and slapping the walls! Since then, they’ve been back in the mix at SUNANDBASS every year. Back in London, they help to run one of London’s finest independent Drum & Bass nights, Launch, whilst also finding time to host a weekly radio show on Origin FM. This Podcast showcases the classic Handy & Kred style, a blend of old and new, smooth and abrassive - mixing classics with new favourites, and with the odd dub thrown in for good measure. Recorded live, they suggest you serve with a chilled Ichnusa and enjoy! Tracklist: 1. Vicious Circle – Emma’s Dilemma 2. Anile & Dakosa – Replicant 3. T>I – Hydra 4. Skeptical – Instant Reflex 5.

His set at SUNANDBASS 2014 literally took the roof off of Ambra Night – a killer selection expertly put together – Spirit’s set was red hot and so it was a no brainer to get him back for the Podcast. An important pillar of the Drum and Bass scene, Duncan Busto aka Spirit has been putting out essential tracks since 1996 on a whole host of labels including Metalheadz, CIA, Renegade Hardware and his own Inneractive imprint amongst many others. His SUNANDBASS Podcast showcases yet more strings to his bow – the first half made up of some of his favourite new deeper cuts, expertly woven together and illustrating his interest in a whole range of music and a style people might not expect. In the second half it’s time for an education, ‘Spirit’ style, as he takes us back to the early doors of Jungle and Drum and Bass – this one’s going to be on rotation for a while to come for sure!

Blindside steps up for Podcast #33. Dan has been integral to the UK scene for a hot minute now – schooled on Ratty, Pilgrim, Scotty, Fabio and Bukem at Quest from ‘92, he helped run Pro-Session and Autumn before starting his own event in 2006, Break Thru, and has since joined the SUNANDBASS crew in 2014. He is also the founder of Blindside Recordings, a label that has been responsible for releasing music from some of drum and bass’ most important producers from the early 2000’s onwards - including the incredible DBridge remix of Dreamworld by Physics, Konspiracy by Marcus Intalex and Noisia’s first release. Blindside Recordings will be making a come back later this year beginning with a release from Calibre, so stay tuned for that!
