Neurodiversity is a condition that 1 in 7 of us live with. It is a mostly hidden disability that ranges from being a slight hindrance to a debilitating condition. We have it here at INSIDE DNB and in this article we speak to a number of neurodiverse people in DNB from around the world to get a glimpse into what it means to be on the neurodiverse spectrum.

Australian producer and DJ Handsprime really made us sit up and listen with his latest EP on ZOMBIE. We loved it so much we reached out for a chat! He talks candidly about having autism and asperger’s syndrome, how this affects the way he makes music and his DJ journey in Australia, and drum and bass generally. We made a great connection with this awesome producer and you can read the results here.
Zombie Cats have a brand new LP ‘Tech Dreams’ out on Dispatch next week (Beatport – 28/4/23 general release). It’s a lush blend of golden era techstep, cutting edge modern drum and bass and swirling, metallic beauty. We caught up with the pair to discuss their musical heritage prior to Zombie Cats, how they operate on different continents and time zones and what they do in their spare time.

Subrix is not one for the limelight, so we were really pleased that he agreed to connect with us and share a little bit of information about himself and his music, which is full of feeling, thought and integrity.
Break The Code are one of the most exciting collectives in drum and bass right now. Combining conscious lyrics and festival vibes with protest sentiment and DNB, they have played Boomtown & Shindig festivals to name but a few and now have three full releases on their own imprint under their belt. We caught up with front woman LouDSpekA to hear more about their political stance and place within the ever expanding drum and bass scene.
Bristol based Burt Cope is absolutely smashing the dance right now. We caught up with him to have a little natter! He has a killer EP out now on DJ Hybrid’s Audio Addict and trust us, it’s wrong on every level. Read on to hear this wikked producers story.

There is no set agenda to his musical style and he is completely unafraid to throw almost anything into the sonic quagmire. Read on to find out more about this intriguing artist!
