Babs Presents - Upside Passion (Original Mix)

The incredible London based Producer, DJ and Broadcaster Melle Brown joined me in the studio this week, we spoke about her new Defected residency, her recent release with legend Annie Mac and our mutual love of Deep and Soulful House, she also delivered a wicked minimix featuring some of our favourite underground artists as well as her own releases too :)

Babs Presents, who lives in London, UK, made his debut on our Smashing Trax sub-label and went on to feature on Pogo House, Bubble N Twist and Floppy Disks, but became most popular with a social media viral featuring house dancers dancing to his 'Jazz Nights In E15' released in 2022 on Smashing Trax. Today Babs delivers us over an hour-long dj mix with a perfectly balanced blend of soulful, garage and house.

Faro is a Brighton based artist who has played all across the UK and beyond since 2014. She holds down residencies at Patterns night club and leading underground radio station Balamii, as well as her local station 1BTN. Faro is known for being a selector, digging deep for the best soulful records to play on her radio shows and gigs. A true music lover.

She has shared line ups with huge headliners, a few being Honey Dijon, Folamour, Dan Shake, Dimitri From Paris, Jeremy Underground, Alexander Nut, Cody Currie, Moxie, Cinthie and last year supported Annie Mac on her Brighton tour date. 

Her vibrant energy and uplifting music has graced many dance floors and venues across the world, notably Suncebeat Festival (Croatia), Kala Festival (Albania), We Out Here Festival (UK), Pikes (Ibiza), Motion (Bristol), XOYO (London) and not to mention taking over from Jayda G and closing Detonate Festival (Nottingham).

Faro grew up on her Dad’s collection of R&B and Soul, which heavily influences her selections today ranging from House, Broken Beat, Disco, Jazz, Garage and beyond. 

As well as DJing, Faro has spent time over the years putting on events and is currently starting regular parties with LEV at the renowned BBE Store in East London. She also works with To The Rock Records, one of the most refreshing soulful labels on the scene right now.

In her early days, Faro produced a track that was played on BBC Introducing - since then she has prioritised DJing but is now spending time in the studio working on production and vocals, with an EP set to come out spring 2025 with fellow artist Pandar.
