I don’t listen to drum & bass or house music 24 hours a day. Sometimes I like to indulge in a little depressing singer/songwriter fare. This one tugs on the ol’ heartstrings extra hard for the days I have a sad. If you need to feel absolutely terrible about the state of the world, but […]

Beats & Pieces – Millbrook – Rituals/Beyond
It’s been awhile since I felt strongly enough about a release to do a lil Beats and Pieces work, but for this release on Viper I’m willing to dust off my keyboard and thesaurus. Rituals/Beyond, by relative Viper new-comer Millbrook (along with Odure & Disprove on Beyond) has tickled my ear holes. The first “A” […]
I Ain’t Scared of the Raccoon!
Earlier this week, DJ Barely Legal posted her recent mix from BBC Radio1’s Diplo & Friends show. It’s a fucking banger and you need to listen to the whole thing as she seamlessly blends a lot of high quality bass genres. Just click the link below to be taken to the BBC page for a […]
TOTD – Chimpo x DRS x Slay x Ragoloco – No Trust
What’s this? Manchester jungle vibes with slick piano work from Chimpo, DRS, Slay, and Ragoloco? Yes, please. An easy Tune of the Day.
RIP to the Queen of Soul
Rest easy, Aretha. You will be missed.
TOTD – The Rum Baba – Stop Talking VIP
This visually hypnotic video for the new Rum Baba EP on 31 Records is hype. This whole EP, entitled Hollywood, is killing it right now and I am excited to get my copy. You can pre-order it here. Stop Talking VIP is my Tune of the Day.
Poison Arrow – If You Don’t Love Me (I’ll Cut Your Face)
I’m really digging this new EP from Poison Arrow on Exit Records. Despite the creepy title, If You Don’t Love Me (I’ll Cut Your Face), is both auditorily and visually stunning.
LEVELZ – Front Face
Is there a more explosive, bass-riddled groups of MCs than Manchester’s all-star LEVELZ crew? I think not. BTW, yes, I’m still here. Life gets in the way of blogging. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
TOTD – Calibre & DRS – Sunrise
Another top notch jam from two of my favorite artists. Definitely my Tune of the Day. **I have no idea why I titled this song “Horizons” instead of “Sunrise.” Apologies.
RIP Apex
Just heard through Chris Renegade that Apex has passed away. RIP.
