Canadian duo Levrige team up with Mystic state for today’s premiere! Deep, head-nodder vibes with tasty jungle beat-inflections and a hint of UKG in the vocal cuts – wicked stuff. Hit up Bandcamp to grab this one right now; full release coming May 21st.
High energy selections from one of Scotland’s best DJs as we welcome Anikonik to the Dojo decks! As a resident selector for Electrikal and Junglism, Kara has built a fearsome reputation playing to big crowds both North and South of the border, and we’re expecting to hear big things over the coming years as she hones her production skills under the EQ50 Mentorship program with the mighty RAM Records.
Her Dojo mix delves deep in the crates, blending classic selections, hidden gems and up to the minute bangers across dark tech, jungle-tinged steppers and heavy neurofunk…serious business. As always you can check out the mix via Soundcloud below or head to Youtube or iTunes to stream. You can also grab a download from Google Drive.
Ever wanted a mix of pretty much every single Kemal / Rob Data / Konflict track ever? Well German super-fan DJ Mix (5000) has you covered! Mixed live across various club sessions in Mannheim from 2012-14, this 6 hour compilation is the deepest of dives through an impressively consistent discography and features many lesser-known gems from the legendary duo. Sick selections!
Johnathan Thomas continues his run of collabs with a new EP on Brighton imprint SmallPrint Recordings this month, and we’ve got the premiere of Recent Strains! JT joins forces with RaptorHandz and Danky for a 3-way studio throwdown and the result is a compelling blend of halftime beats, spooky pads and tinges of jungle. Wicked stuff – look out for this coming May 7th!
Sardinian events brand OBL/QUE steps into a new chapter this month with the launch of a new label in partnership with Samsara Beats, focusing on a variety bass music across styles and tempos.

Halftime D&B business with a serious drum groove and rapid-fire bassline hook – sick work from a producer still early in their journey. Hit up digital stores to grab this one from May 7th.
DBR UK on the buttons for today’s premiere, delivering a groove-led minimal stepper for the forthcoming Stand Together LP.

Ghast lands on frequent musical home Free Love Digi with a sick new single and we’re hyped to have the exclusive on lead track Find Our Love! Haunting strains of melody and intricate drum programming make for a powerful composition…watch out for this coming Apr 30th at Beatport and Bandcamp!
Kemal’s return to the scene continues! Following the release of a slew of remasters and a handful of new tracks via the Kemal & Rob Data Bandcamp, the neurofunk pioneer touches down on Bad Taste with a fresh remix for Trilo and Vegas.
This new take eases off on the raw bassline aggression of the 2019 original, focusing instead on a hypnotic synth lead for maximum earworm energy, lending a taste of old-school rave to the modern D&B sound. Delicious and tantalising…here’s hoping for plenty more where this came from. Check out the track below and hit up the Bad Taste store to pre-order a copy right now – the remix drops Apr 30th.
Twenty years deep in the music industry and channelling a deep knowledge of all things D&B, pyxis’ forays into production over the last two years have established her as one of the scene’s best up and coming liquid producers.

As you’d expect this one is melodic vibes through and through, the perfect soundtrack to the current crop of sunny weather here in the UK. Smooth and rolling, just how we like it! As always you can check out the mix via Soundcloud below or head to Youtube or iTunes to stream. You can also grab a download from Google Drive.
