Put three drum and bass heavyweights in the same collaborative space and (unless they fall out over who’s turn it is to make a cup of tea), you know you’re going to get some serious vibes at the end of the process. We’re premiering their brand new summer slammer today. Here’s what we’re saying!
Jane Doe drops an evil 4 track EP on VTO Records on today, and we got the scoop! The southern Australian powerhouse comes in hard on this one, make no mistake. We’ve been supporters of the VTO sound for a while now, and there’s a SoundCloud Premiere thrown in for good measure!
Frenchish is one of the new breed of DJs working his way through the system and his sets bring a vibrance and energy to the floor, especially when combined with the lyrical flow of MC Elkay, his partner in crime. We caught up with the Bristol based DJ to see what’s going down.
Amorius is a Ukrainian liquid DNB producer who has been pushing the genre to its limits in terms of creativity and musical beauty. We first made contact at the tail end of 2024 when his beautiful EP Ethno Code came out on DNBB Records, and we’ve been communicating via translation ever since. Now we finally have a full blown interview with this highly intuitive producer. Enjoy!
What better way to ring in the New Year, than with some fresh Neurofunk? We sat down with the one and only TRCD to get to know what goes into making his cutting edge DNB. His latest EP “The Breaking Point” is out now on VTO Records, and is sure to heat up your local dancefloor!
Here’s issue two of our ‘Global Interpretations’ Guest Mix series courtesy of Jon The Dentist, and boy, is it a stinker. Best known as a trance DJ and producer, he is also a huge fan of 90s DNB and this mix proves it. Enjoy!
Stevie Hyper D was one of the best MCs the international drum and bass scene has ever known, possibly THE best. His life was tragically cut short in 1998 after years and years of hard graft. He was on the cusp of international stardom and a bright future as an MC at the very top of his game. Ten years ago a discussion between his nephew Darrell Austin and film director and producer Jamie Ross-Hulme gave birth to an idea for a full length feature film about Stevie’s life story. Fast forward to 2024 and Hyper – The Stevie Hyper D Story has seen its first airing in Odeon cinemas across the UK, with a second showing scheduled for the 27th November. We have seen the film and also managed to catch up with Jamie to get some insight into the journey from initial idea to big screen. BIG UP to EVERYONE involved in this epic and NOT TO BE MISSED film that has just become the most important production regarding DNB history so far.
We look at 6 of the best drum and bass albums of 1995, the year jungle was at it’s creative peak. If you haven’t heard of any of these, or even some of them, now is the perfect opportunity to take a listen to a selection from each of these scene defining and bona fide classics.
You’re welcome.

Even the snowy Swedish weather can’t stop our latest featured artist from setting the dancefloor ablaze! If you like a healthy dose of metal and punk in your DNB, we’ve got the artist for you! We caught up with Levia to talk about her latest EP release out now on Imagine audio, “Game Changers.”
