Q&A:
Sum up this mix in 10 words…
D&B Mix of all styles. Bangers, rollers, melodies & vibes!
What’s your personal favourite track on it?
Adam F – Music In My Mind (Dj Marky & Makoto Reboot)
The original is one of my favourite EVER songs. I used to have it as my ringtone at school for years. This reboot brings it back to 2024. I love it.
What’s the special ingredient in this mix?
The mix ebbs & flows. I let a fair few tracks breathe but there are also some crazy double drops. Let us know your favourite!
Tell us about your next EP…
I am currently working on my next wave of releases. I have been focussing on some 140 aside from D&B and i have a really cool track coming next month with an amazing vocalist called AfroditeTooLively. Can’t wait to share more on that.
Earlier this year, I dropped my Powerlines EP which is straight D&B. It has been very well received and is currently has over 500k streams on DSPs!
What have you got coming up?
I am currently taking some time of shows to focus on time in the studio. However me and my team are working on getting me back out to the USA. I have my VISA application in progress and I can’t wait to share my info on an upcoming North America tour!
Also aiming to get back to Australia by the end of the year!
When was the last time you actually raved?
Well, I don’t rave nearly as much as I used to, but I recently went to a show in Bristol with Grafix, AC13 & TC. Was super sick to catch up with the boys and hear a bunch of new D&B bangers. I’m also planning on attending Reading Festival this month! Can’t wait to catch Skrillex, Blink 182, Bou, Sota & many more sets!
And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?
I hope you love this mix & all of the different styles in it! Thanks for following my journey and thanks to Data Transmission for the support!
