Need for Mirros new techstepper, Verve, is my phat ass tune of the day. It’s part of a new three track EP that NfM dropped today on Warm Communications and smashes it down with a straightforward “killa” groove.

Throwback – Freaky Flow Volume 7 – 1998
The mighty, mighty Freaky Flow uploaded his 1998 mixtape, Volume 7, earlier this week.

Since it’s a tape rip from 16 years ago the sound quality […]
RIP Kemistry – 15 Years
15 years ago today, the world of drum & bass lost DJ Kemistry. She, and long time partner Storm, were guiding lights in the sound and the first ladies of jungle. Kemistry was massively influential to the rise of the Metalheadz sound and Goldie considers her his muse. You can read all about her life […]
Seven Days of Free Tunes
I’m still trying to get my blogging mojo back and find the spark to post daily, but some days it’s pretty tough. Today, however, I’ve pulled myself out of the funk to post a few freebies that have popped up in the last week. It’s not all drum & bass either…you’ll find some UK hip-hop […]

Beats & Pieces Vol 24 – Warm Communications & Blu Mar Ten Music
Several big releases in the last few weeks that you should hear. Mutated Forms – Crowlin/Reach You In Your Sleep – Blu Mar Ten Music – OUT NOW You have probably heard Crowlin before in a number of mixes recently (like Anile’s Feb Studio Mix) and for good reason. It’s a big tune. Haunting, deep, […]
Metalheadz History Sessions
Listening to this makes me wish I could’ve been there, but for being broadcast live on RinseFM the audio is kinda rough. I found direct downloads from RinseFM that sound slightly better, but it’s not great.

February Free Tune Round-up
I haven’t written a free tune round-up post in awhile, so since it’s a little slow for me today I thought I’d knock one out. There’s a lot of drum & bass, some house, jungle, dubstep, a smattering of trap, and an ambient future garage all tucked away in the list. As always your mileage […]
