I apologize for my lengthy delay in posting on the beloved SB. Much has happened in my life that has been major and have finally found some ground to get myself back into the mode to provide great links and information for you all. I write this while listening to the Blocks & Escher full […]

TOTD – Detboi – Secret Venom
Sometimes a producer nails the sound of the past in a single tune and Detboi did that, in spades, with Secret Venom. It perfectly captures *that* Metalheadz sound so perfectly that it could be dropped into the Platinum Breakz compilation from 1996 and it wouldn’t be out of place. I love that sound and this […]
OneMind & Rider Shafique on Radio 1 Friction show #DNB60 mix
I haven’t written in a while and I finally found some time to catch up on life today, so I put on my headphones and queued up this set to get some things done and it’s been perfect. OneMind’s mixing is on point, the selection is wicked and Rider’s MCing fits right in. We covered OneMind’s […]

TOTD – Commix – Freefall
Commix has a brand new EP, Generation 2, on Metalheadz available on November 4th and it’s spectacular. If you’ve read this blog for any length of time, you might know that I am in love with atmospheric drum & bass, especially from it’s heyday in the 90s. When Good Looking Records and their peers ruled […]
Dom & Roland – Last Refuge of a Scoundrel – Metalheadz
Dom Angus aka Dom and Roland, Signal to Noise, Neotech, Dark Master, Known Unknown, Monik, Touch. The list could add a few more of his aliases. Dom was one of the first 3 records I bought when I decided to become a dj. It was “The Planets” release on Moving Shadow. I have been a […]
SCAR – The Orkyd Project – Metalheadz
I have been a fan of Steve Survival and Script over the years as individual producers. Survival’s album on Exit was in heavy rotation for me upon its release around ’09. I always liked the soundscapes and style they bring to the table so I was very intrigued to find out they were behind the […]
