BC#9, also known as Jason Bakes, is a DJ and producer from Denver, Colorado, USA. A touring musician since 1986, he has built a reputation for blending organic and digital elements to create fresh, innovative sounds. He’s also the founder and host of ‘The United State of Drum+Bass’ podcast.

His debut Drum & Bass album, ‘Aquasonica’, featured standout tracks like ‘Going On’ and ‘Liquid Blue’, earning both critical and commercial success. He followed up with releases like ‘Jungle Mind,’ ‘Massive,’ and ‘Sound Boy Killa,’ solidifying his place in the jungle scene. Most recently, BC#9 collaborated with Bristol-based outfit Paper Dragon on ‘Unity Gain’. Remixes of the track by Dope Ammo and Kravitz, and a version featuring Jasmine Knight’s vocals are set to drop soon.

Having spent time in the UK during the ’90s, BC#9 witnessed the rise of Jungle, Drum & Bass and Hardcore firsthand, falling in love with the sound and culture. This deep connection led him to establish DnB United Records, a platform dedicated to celebrating the art, culture, and evolution of Drum & Bass and Jungle worldwide.

Founded in 2013 as a hub for artist interviews, album reviews, and guest mixes, DnB United Records has grown into a team of industry professionals supporting releases across the scene. Now also a record label, it’s home to BC#9, Invalid, and Lina Hrams, helping to push the genre forward on a global scale.

Today BC#9 joins our Renegade Riddims series with a mix curated for the dance floor so it’s the perfect start to your weekend! Featuring music from artists such as A.M.C, Culture Shock, Sota, Sub Focus, Kings Of The Rollers, MUZZ, Andy C, Pendulum, June Miller, Junk Mail and more!

Vessel isn’t just a DJ—she’s a vibe architect, a selector who knows exactly how to ignite a dancefloor. Fusing dark, rolling beats with high-energy steppers, her sets are a masterclass in movement, effortlessly shifting between Drum & Bass, speed garage, breakbeat, dubstep/140, jungle, trance, and techno. No matter the genre, she flips it in a way that leaves you wishing you were there. Her style is all about energy—raw, relentless, and impossible to ignore.

Her journey started four years ago, locked away in her bedroom, learning the craft after getting hooked on the energy of house parties and raves. What began as a passion quickly turned into a mission. Vessel dedicated herself to the art of selection and mixing, refining her skills and developing a sound that cuts through the noise. It wasn’t long before she found herself behind the decks at proper raves, where she quickly made an impression with her ability to command a crowd.

Now, she’s shelling down stages alongside heavyweights like Bou, Serum, S.P.Y, Shy FX, Annix, and Hybrid Minds, lighting up events like Hidden Festival, Forbidden Forest, and beyond. Whether it’s a sweaty underground rave or a festival main stage, she brings the same relentless energy, reading the crowd and keeping the momentum rolling. Her reputation for high-octane sets and seamless blends has earned her a place among the rising forces in the scene.

But DJing is just the beginning. 2025 is all gas, no brakes. With production in the works and deeper roots in the underground, Vessel is ready to take things to the next level. Expect the unexpected—genre-fluid sets, new releases, and bigger shows that push boundaries. She’s not just following trends; she’s creating moments that stick with you long after the night ends.

Today Vessel joins us on Renegade Riddims for the second time. She’s now a resident DJ with On The Decks (OTD) based here in Milton Keynes, where you can regularly catch her on the stage and in the crowd at Unit Nine. This is also the second in a run of mixes from residents on the evergrowing brand, with the first from D-M last month. Vessel’s skills and sound have made great progress since the previous mix she did for us and we’re excited to see and hear more from her as she steps into production!

Vessel’s new mix features music from artists such as Black Yukon Sucker Punch, NC-17, Kasra, Noisia, The Sauce, Monty, Kidsonic, Universal Project and loads more!

D-M is a rising Drum & Bass DJ making waves with his fresh, distinctive style. Known for blending darker, minimal Drum & Bass with sub-genres like soulful liquid, Neurofunk, and Jump Up, his sets bring something for everyone. Whether you’re a hardcore Drum & Bass fan or just dipping your toes into the genre, D-M knows how to take you on a proper sonic journey.

He’s already shared stages with some of the biggest names in the scene, including Friction, Bou, Alix Perez, and Andy C. Locally, he’s become a key player in the Milton Keynes Drum & Bass scene, thanks to his residency with On The Decks (OTD). These nights aren’t just gigs—they’re high-energy experiences where D-M’s connection with the crowd really shines.

But it’s not just about the music for D-M; he’s all about giving back too. As the founder of A41 Records, he’s helping to grow the Buckinghamshire electronic music scene by spotlighting local talent. Whether it’s through label releases or events, D-M is all about creating opportunities for up-and-coming DJs and producers to thrive.

With his love for Drum & Bass, a knack for delivering unforgettable sets, and a passion for supporting the scene, D-M is definitely one to watch. Whether he’s behind the decks or behind the scenes, he’s out there making a real impact. Stay tuned—this is only the beginning.

Each month this year we’ll be bringing you a fresh mix from On The Decks residents as part of our Renegade Riddims series which is designed to support up-and-coming artists. We did this a few years ago with OTD but they have grown exponentially since then and have some new artists on their roster so we thought it would be a good move to revisit them and see what they’ve all been up to and see how their artists have changed and grown.

D-M’s mix features music from the likes of Leks, Dunk, Alix Perez, Arkaik, Monty, Kyrist & InsideInfo, Kasra, NC-17, Speaker Louis, Enei and more!

Q&A:

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

Dark, deep, rolling and steppy vibes crafted into a journey.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

My favourite track in this mix, and my favourite track in general at the moment is the SMG remix of Take Me by Azotix & T-Man. I’m really rating anything by both Azotix & SMG at the moment so when I saw that SMG remixed one of Azotix’s tunes I knew I’d love it straight away!

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

The mix is 100% freestyle, no planning whatsoever. It’s just what I was feeling in the moment, put together from a playlist of tunes old and new that I’m rating.

Tell us about your next release…

I have a couple of bits in the works, a collab with fellow On The Decks residents Dain and Deegz a.k.a Order & Chaos and I’m also sat on a couple of tunes I’ve made with CaeDubs under our alias Cadium along with a remix of one of our tunes from Kumo so keep an eye out for these!

What have you got coming up?

I’ve got a few shows planned with my brand A41 Records and I’ve got a few more to announce soon so keep an eye out for these.

When was the last time you actually raved?

The last proper rave I attended was Critical at fabric last October! Great night, Critical being my favourite label and you can’t beat a rave at fabric, special shout out to VISLA who killed his set at the end of the night!

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

KRASIA is a Drum & Bass trio that’s been turning heads since they came together at Cardiff University. Made up of producers, DJs, and MCs Bengo, Daisley, and Niss, they bonded over their love of music production and raving. In just a year, they’ve dropped tracks on labels like Pull Up Recordings (home to artists like Y U QT and Diffrent) and played killer sets at BOG Bristol and the 1,800-capacity O2 Academy Bournemouth. With 20,000 monthly Spotify listeners and their 2023 hit ‘Addicted’ smashing 272,000 streams, it’s clear these guys are on a roll.

In December 2024, KRASIA raised the bar with their single, ‘Nothing To Lose’, released on Dutch label Wobbles & Waffles. This one’s a proper banger, kicking off with a driving 4×4 beat before diving into choppy 2-step Drum & Bass madness. Packed with growling synths and euphoric vocals, it’s pure energy from start to finish. It’s the second release from Wobbles & Waffles—following Loboski’s huge debut ‘Take A Break’—and the track really nails the label’s vibe of pushing bold, creative sounds and shaking up the scene.

Their track ‘Better Now’, featuring BSEARL, is another standout, racking up 10,000 streams in just two weeks and showing off their knack for blending emotion with dancefloor energy. Whether it’s through their tracks or their live sets, KRASIA has a way of connecting with fans that makes them one of the most exciting new acts in Drum & Bass. With 2025 just kicking off, expect even bigger things from these guys in the months ahead.

Now, KRASIA join our Renegade Riddims series with a fresh new, highly energetic mix. Featuring tracks from artists such as themselves, Sub Focus, Dimension, Reaper, S.P.Y, Latte, Circadian & System F, Benny L & Shimon, 1991, Hoax and more this is one that’ll really get you moving!

Check out the mix below and download it for free here!

Q&A:

KRASIA ARTWORK

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

Vibey drum and bass with catchy melodies and heavy dancefloor energy.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

This is a tough one as we love every song included in the mix, and if we had to give an answer we couldn’t pin it down to just one song! It would probably have to be between Sub Focus – Rock it (Wilkinson Remix) or Andromedik – Stone. They’re both absolute bangers! 

In terms of our own music though, our personal favourite track would be our latest release ‘Nothing To Lose.’ It’s just released on the label Wobbles and Waffles and we couldn’t be happier with the response to it. It also features a nice crossover of dance floor drum and bass and 4×4. Overall, we’re very pleased with how it’s come out! 

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

One of the main features of our sound is the crossover between 4×4 and melodic dance floor so it would probably have to be that. The mix is also filled with our own productions, so that also helps to make it unique! 

Tell us about your next release…

We’ve got lots of unreleased music that we plan to put out in the next couple of months, but our next release is a track with Denver called ‘Too Late.’ It’s a Camo & Krooked inspired melodic neuro track that we’re all buzzing with. Keep your eyes out for that one! 

What have you got coming up?

We’ve spent the last couple of months locked away in the studio making some of our personal favourite tunes yet. Expect to be seeing lots of releases from us this year! We’ve also got some exciting sets coming up supporting Andy C and Camo & Krooked at some of our favourite venues including the O2 academy in Bournemouth. 

When was the last time you actually raved?

We all go to raves pretty regularly, but the most recent one would probably be Warehouse Project in Manchester for Worried About Henry. The scale of that venue and the production there is seriously impressive! 

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

Thanks for checking us out, and stay tuned for lots of new music coming soon. We’ve got big plans, and if you’re dance floor drum and bass, there’s a lot to come that could be up your street! Lastly big ups to Data Transmission and Wobbles&Waffles for giving us the opportunity to showcase our sound!

Jen, better known as Flavours, is a talented DJ and producer based in Milton Keynes, UK. Her journey into music began back in 2005, when she started mixing on a pair of Technics 1210s. Drawing inspiration from legends like Bladerunner, Tim Reaper, Calibre, Kasra, Dillinja, Ricky Force, Geostatic, and Bailey, Flavours developed her unique style, blending Hardcore, Jungle, and Drum & Bass.

Initially a hobbyist, Flavours decided to fully dedicate herself to music, a decision that’s propelled her career forward. Today, she hosts her own monthly radio show on differentdrumz.co.uk, where she showcases her versatile mixing skills and deep love for the genre. Her sets often feature everything from soulful rollers to high-energy jungle breaks, capturing the essence of Drum & Bass while delivering something fresh every time.

Flavours regularly performs across London and occasionally graces the decks in Bristol, sharing her passion with audiences in two of the UK’s hottest Drum & Bass hubs. Having recently completed a degree in music production and sound engineering, she’s eager to expand her skills further, delving deeper into producing, DJing, and sound design.

In an exciting milestone, Flavours has joined us for our Renegade Riddims mix series. This collaboration reflects her growing recognition in the scene and her dedication to pushing creative boundaries. You can also look forward to her potential contributions to data transmission, as she continues to make waves in the Drum & Bass community.

As a DJ, producer, and sound designer, Flavours is a name to watch. With her technical expertise, infectious energy, and commitment to her craft, she’s set to carve out a prominent place in the ever-evolving world of Drum & Bass.

Flavours mix for us contains some amazing tracks, great mixing skills and energy. The mix features music from the likes of Tim Reaper, Conrad Subs, Remarc, Omni Trio, Amoss, Sully, Sl8r & Samurai Breaks and more!

Check out the mix below and download it for free here!

Q&A:

Flavours artwork

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

Bold and passionate with twists and turns; full of feeling!

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

Tim Reaper ‘On Sight’

What’s the special ingredient in the mix?

The special ingredient in the mix is my heart. Each and every track has been carefully selected by yours truly to convey what I am feeling inside during this time. I managed to squeeze more tunes in this hour than I ever have….unintentionally! This is definitely some of my finest work.

Tell us about your next release?

I have not released anything yet, however, my first EP will be drum and bass and jungle made using my own sounds that I created on my own synths I virtually built, and found sounds that I have recorded myself using different mediums. My music will consist of vocals that will be performed and recorded by myself, and I hope to find a way of creating something completely unique, whilst still fitting nicely into our wondrous genre.

What have you got coming up?

I have a DJ gig in Camden at the end of January with my friends Sarky Dubz, and another gig in Bristol, also at the end of January with the girls at The Mothership. I have recently (within the last 7 months) been collaborating with the lads down at the Buckle Bunker studio in Essex and am throwing a private party there for my birthday in March (RSVP for an invite!). I am also supporting Uncle Dugs in Southend in April with the guys at Jungle Tek, which I am very much looking forward to!

When was the last time you actually raved?

29th December 2024. Also the 28th, 27th, and 26th! That was one heavy weekend straight after Crimbo!! The only way I remain healthy is by raving at least once every 1-2 months at an event that I am not performing at. It is therapy. 

And finally, do you have a message for our readers?

Big ups to all the DNB and Jungle family! Without your support, none of this would be possible so massive shouts to you!! Keep it real and look after each other. Love to you all!

Leo Simonovski known in the Drum & Bass scene as LXS is a Macedonian-born, UK-based producer and DJ who’s all about mixing up his diverse musical background. From old school metalcore to progressive house, trance, and pretty much everything in between, his influences span a wide range. This variety shapes his unique approach to Drum & Bass, where he blends the emotional highs and lows of the genre while exploring its different subgenres.

Known for his high-energy sets, LXS brings the vibe that takes you on a journey, aiming to give listeners that sense of awe and euphoria. His mixes show off his ability to move through Drum & Bass in a way that keeps things fresh and exciting while still maintaining that deep, immersive experience.

With his growing reputation and a knack for blending his influences into something new, LXS is definitely someone to watch as he makes his mark on the Drum & Bass scene.

Today we welcome LXS to our Renegade Riddimgs series with a brand new mix exclusively curated for us. LXS hit me up a few months ago and after some back and forth emails I invited him to record a mix for us. He’s gone above and beyond and has created a 1hr30min mix, he also made it into a video of visuals for YouTube.

LXS’s mix features a huge tracklist with music from the likes of Noisia, Pendulum, Sub Focus, Metrk, Freaks & Geeks, Black Sun Empire, Pythius, Sota, Kasra, Andy C, A.M.C, Magnetude and loads more!

Q&A:

LXS artwork

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

A showcase of all heavy, dark, euphoric and beautiful DnB.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

Noisia ‘Stigma’ (Billain Remix)

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

This mix is made to induce that feeling of entering your first rave, then taking you on a journey of highs and lows across all of my favourite subgenres of DnB.

Tell us about your next release…

Currently working on another heavy neurofunk original by myself as well as remixing Zardonic ‘Bitter’ (Feat REEBZ), working with the original stems of my new favourite metal/dnb vocalist is a pleasure.

What have you got coming up?

Going into the new year, my main focus is going to be putting more original tracks out there as well as beginning to run my own collective/event in London, stay tuned on my social media for updates in the new year!

When was the last time you actually raved?

Last Friday (and I will also be the next Friday)

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

Thank you to anyone taking the time out of their day to listen to my work and letting me share my passion and love for music with you!

Mauoq (real name Mauro Campana) is a London-based DJ and producer originally from Rome, Italy.

He got his start in the early 90s spinning italo-house and techno at student parties in Italy. By the mid-90s, he’d fallen for the bass-heavy breakbeat sound emerging from the UK. Since then, he’s championed the deeper, groovier side of Drum & Bass, eventually moving to London in the early 2000s. A few years later, the dub-inspired tones of Dubstep caught his ear and further shaped his Drum & Bass style, leading to his trademark “less is more” approach.

In 2010, he launched the Mauoq DNB Podcast, a bi-monthly series showcasing fresh and innovative bass-driven sounds at 170 bpm. He’s played extensively across the UK and Europe, with a standout 10-year residency at the legendary Sun & Bass Festival in Italy (2009–2019).

Mauoq began dabbling with music production in the late 90s but took it seriously from the mid-2000s, releasing his first tracks in 2011. By 2015, he had established his own label, Mauoq Music, as a platform for his solo work, collaborations, and remixes.

Over the years, he’s released music on respected labels like CX Digital, Diffrent Music, Dispatch Recordings, Flexout Audio, Rebel Music, and Squares Music, to name a few. His tracks have earned support from top-tier names in Drum & Bass, including Dexta, Gremlinz, Loxy, Mark System, Noisia, Skeptical, Stunna, Tokyo Prose, and more.

Today Mauoq joins our Renegade Riddims series with a brand new exclusive mix just for us! The mix includes music from himself, including some unreleased bits and other tracks from artists such as Loxy, Brusten, Creatures, R3IDY, Kublai, Wreckless and more!

Check out the mix below and download it for free here!

Q&A:

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

A crafty blend of quality tunes that loosely fit around some random old and new Mauoq Music catalogue

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

It’s a fight between ’Stuck on You’ by Bursten & Dyl for the depth and ‘Seventeen Heads’ by Wreckless for the madness.

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

I guess my own productions, some exclusive dubs and my mixing style will make the mix special, at least I hope!

Tell us about your next release…

It’s a single two-tracker with tunes made in the early post-pandemic times. ‘Gift Shop’ is almost entirely made of samples found on a well respected label’s Discord channel during lockdown whereas ‘Racture’ is inspired by my first visit to a specific infamous London clubnight.

What have you got coming up?

Nothing set in stone at the minute but I have a few solo and collaboration tracks ready to find their right home plus I’m working on an EP for my label which will likely be ready at some point early next year

When was the last time you actually raved?

Not sure I’d call it “actual raving” but a couple of months ago I attended ‘Exit Records at Planet Wax’ and ‘Dubclub at Loki’ in the same night, which alone accounts for extreme raving by my standards nowadays! Also, the vibe at the latter was definitely ravey. Else I’d have to go back to early summer when I went to see Laurent Garnier in Rome

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

Thanks for reading and listening, hope you dig the choones!

MZCL (pronounced Mezcal), from Coachella Valley, Southern California, started his Drum & Bass journey nearly 20 years ago, like many of us, thanks to the influence of an older brother. Sharing a room as a kid, he had no idea how much those moments would shape his life. Watching his brother spin vinyl and build a collection, it wasn’t long before MZCL stepped up to the decks himself. He started by scratching over hip-hop instrumentals and recording cassette mixes from the likes of Dom & Roland, R.A.W, AK1200, and Metalheadz—early sounds that sparked his love for Drum & Bass.

Things really clicked when his brother took him to his first rave, Project Love Groove, held in an abandoned warehouse in downtown LA. After spending time at the trance-heavy main stage, Mzcl was pulled into a small, dark room with black walls and a static red light. Here, the heavy sounds of Bad Company, paired with a rapid-fire MC, completely shifted his world. “From that moment, I just knew—I wanted to be a DnB MC,” he remembers.

His brother influenced him again by bringing home a burned rap CD. The emotional depth of the lyrics hit hard, inspiring MZCL to start writing. This kicked off a decade-long journey in hip-hop, with album releases and performances across California, Arizona, and Nevada.

In August 2019, while wrapping up his final rap album, he felt a shift happening. That pull led him to the Mojave Desert for a full moon gathering called Moon Tribe. “For where I was at in my life I could’ve never planned what was about to happen to me” says MZCL. “Deep, dark, dirty 3am Drum & Bass my life changed in all aspects forever.” 

Soon after, MZCL started experimenting with beats. By late 2020, he’d fully dived in, buying Ableton Live and producing deep liquid Drum & Bass. Not long after, he grabbed a DJ controller and began dropping mixes, blending his emotive sound with heartfelt lectures from authors he admires—a unique touch that got people talking.

Since then, he’s released music with respected labels like Interstellar Audio, Grand Theft Audio, Lizplay Records, Mathematica Records, Totally Liquid, and Brazil’s renowned DNBB. He’s also featured on guest mixes for Kush Sessions, DNB France, Soulful Liquid, Alpha Rhythm, Pure Liquid, and Liquid Central.

MZCL’s music speaks from the heart—deep, soulful, and layered with a hint of spirituality and philosophy. For anyone who’s tuned in, it’s more than just Drum & Bass—it’s a whole experience.

Now, he joins the ranks of our Renegade Riddims series with a mix solely curated using his own creations. There are also some collaborations with artists such as Wes Walker, Subrix and Tilal.

Q&A:

MZCL artwork

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

Deep meditative frequencies crafted to reach your solar plexus.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

All of them. They are all originals ❤

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

I’ve verbally sprinkled my all time favourite philosophy throughout the mix, which is the ancient Chinese text the Tao Te Ching.

Tell us about your next EP…

I have a two tracker that will be seen in 2025 with the prestigious Brazilian DNBB Records. They are two very special pieces to me because of the samples I pulled from. To implement music from two different vital times in my life and join them into one cohesive piece of art is truly rewarding.

What have you got coming up?

At the time of this mix, we will have just seen the release of the highly anticipated ‘Frontiers Vol. 2’ by Interstellar Audio. It is a project aimed to help the Doctors Without
Borders Foundation
. It consists of 30+ tunes hand-picked by Cellar himself. I am very honored to have received the opportunity for such an impactful cause. Look out for my
track ‘Not of this World’!

When was the last time you actually raved?

Last night! I had the pleasure of seeing GLXY and Halogenix in an abandoned warehouse in Downtown Los Angeles. Need I say more?

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

The more you do, the more you become ❤

Pierre aka Dezpot is a French-American artist based near Paris, has been immersed in music for as long as he can remember. His musical journey began with the violin at a young age, soon followed by guitar and drums, as he experimented with various instruments before discovering the powerful software, Reason. At the time, he was studying in Bath and Bristol, UK—during an era when artists like Caspa and Rusko were reshaping the EDM landscape.

Since then, Pierre has never stopped producing electronic music. A few years into his career, he left his role as a software engineer to fully commit to music and sound engineering. Today, he crafts commercial soundscapes for TV, radio, and events, and also contributes as a composer, sound designer, and mixing engineer on small film productions. He has found a unique niche in creating music for live escape games, a project that continues to thrive and inspire.

Yet, his passion for Drum & Bass and intricate, experimental beats remains his driving force. Through the Dezpot project, Pierre strives to take his creative vision even further. For him, Dezpot is an outlet that embodies both calm and chaos, sanity and madness—a balance of opposites where he finds freedom, allowing his music to bridge worlds and invite listeners into a unique sonic experience.

Today Dezpot joins us on our Renegade Riddims series with a brand new mix. The mix features music from artists such as himself, Screamarts, Gyrda, CrucifyMe, Teej, Yatuza, Thread, Annix, Debice, RMS and more. He’s also thrown in a few dubs for good measure!

Q&A:

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

{ In | World } , { Out – Power } ; ) kNot   Form ( <-> [ all threes ]² 

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

I love every track in this mix and have infinite respect for all these producers. But if I really had to choose one track, I would go with Myselor’s Full Force, it’s all in the name – one of the most energetic bangers I’ve ever heard, throws me out of this world every time.

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

That would be the bunch of tracks I’ve been restlessly trying to bring up to date in the past few months since I started setting up a track list for this project. Some were originally drafted over 8 years ago, and most have never been heard outside of my close circle. I’m happy they now sound in a way that I feel comfortable sharing them with the world (evenly hearing room for improvement) and to have a first full set sprinkled and guided by my own story. 

Tell us about your next release, what have you got coming up?

My next EP and upcoming releases are dispatched all over the mix. I can’t say much more atm, but I’m excited about what is to come, also very much about my collaborations with Swiss artist Modefunk, who has become a dear friend over the years, and whose work you should definitely check out if you haven’t already!

Oh, but did I mention I have a remix coming up soon on Data Transmission Dnb? 

When was the last time you actually raved?

‘Get In Step’, Paris, France, towards the end of September. It was a great return of Koan Sound, with tasty sauce and epic spices from Notequal, Nitepunk, SLWDWN, Eluun and Gabzh. Also, I couldn’t miss Darkshire and Let It Roll festivals in the Czech Republic this summer, which were both incredible mind-boggling experiences.

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

I haven’t yet had the chance to get on stage, and lately, I’ve been pushing towards that. I am currently working with Traktor – 4 decks, but plan to get cracking with XDJs as soon as possible. In a few months, I will be all set and actively looking for gigs. Feel free to get in touch through Facebook or Soundcloud if you would be interested in hosting me.

Also, you will hear a bunch of unreleased remixes in this set, which I would love to give away for free, each on a different label ideally. If one of those caught your ear and you would like to put it out there for me, please let me know.

I’ll add a special shout out here to my old friend Prophekt, from whom I haven’t heard in a while – our last two collabs, which we started so many years ago, are now pretty much ready for release bro ❤

And finally, HELLOoOoO to all of you listening/reading this, and massive thanks to the Data Transmission team and all those who have supported my work over the years.

Q&A:

Sum up this mix in 10 words…

A mix featuring a wide range of the styles of D&B from Interstellar Audio

What’s your personal favourite track on it?

Chris Avantgarde X Kevin de Vries – Mind Control (Jinbu Bootleg)

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?

IA is made up of a community of people with such diverse styles and tastes which makes a 100% IA mix a real melting pot of flavours but that is the essence of our brand which gives us the breadth we have.

Tell us about your next release…

Personally, as Cellar, my next release is a track included on Frontiers Vol.2, “Only One” its a track I really enjoyed making, I am not an accomplished producer by any means and this style was something I had wanted to experiment with and learn about so the sessions I spent in the studio on this one were really fun and challenging, I often say we should focus on the joy that comes from the act of creation rather than be too hung up on how music performs and this tune was all about that creative session enjoyment, I learnt a lot and I had good fun, input from people in our community helped me develop the track into the flavour I was aiming for and for me that is the thing I enjoy most about producing.

What have you got coming up? 

November 15th will see the release of our second instalment of Frontiers, an annual charity project that aims to try and contribute in some small way to the amazing work being done by humanitarian organisations around the world, this year the Frontiers project is helping Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) specifically their Emergency Surgery response that aims to provide emergency theatre operations in areas acutely affected by conflict and crisis such as Gaza and Sudan.

November 15th will also see IA host Lenzman at Hidden in Nottingham, a huge moment in the development of the brands event’s. We are trying to make space for the IA flavours of Liquid and Minimal DnB in a scene that is increasingly dominated by more trendy styles. https://www.fatsoma.com/r/5bf95dd4-c636-4001-81de-109b4eac4748/e/kompvu95

Then in December, we continue our annual Christmas social events, this time we are invited to Phatsoundz event with Kyrist & Spectral, IA will be having a fun brand takeover slot on the lineup and a bunch of our family will be letting our hair down for a bit of Christmas fun, would love to see everyone there https://www.skiddle.com/whats-on/Shrewsbury/Carriages%2C-Oswestry/Phatsoundz-Presents-Kyrist-Spectral–MC-XL/40070527/

And then as we move into 2025 there is a real drive to focus on the products we put out and develop our brand identity and flavour, some really incredible releases and events are in the works. Blessed to be working on these opportunities.

When was the last time you actually raved?

We threw our rooftop party in Nottingham a few weeks back and it was such a joy to get to celebrate the end of summer with the IA family and there was such a sense of community and optimism for everything everyone has going on, such an awesome day. 

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?

Huge thanks to everyone that supports the IA project and believes in the corner of the scene we are involved in, we try and make our community welcoming to all and we would love to get to know other people that love this sound.
