Genaside II Narra Mine (2023 Remixes) 

Get ready for the biggest release from Foxtrot Alpha Recordings so far!

We are excited to announce a new remix project, of the all-time early rave classic from Genaside II. The original idea started from when J-Me Griffiths chopped up the main sample parts from the 1991 classic release. “The original was always a big inspiration back in our early days of playing out hardcore rave music” The artwork on the record was also way ahead at the time and always a favourite. AC Trixta & J-Me couldn’t resist giving it a remix and the new 2023 version was born with updated artwork. To make things even more amazing we were privileged to have the other special guest mixes from: Shades of Rhythm, Ranj Kaler, Ben Dickeson and Dr SJ / BBC (Break Beat Connection)


1. AC Trixta & J-Me Griffiths Remix – This is where the remix project initially started from.
Crisp electro influenced breaks. Sirens, warm bass, cheeky scratches, arp snyths. Plus, new melodic elements. Powerful and well produced journey that reflects well on the original version. 

2. Shades of Rhythm Remix – Oldschool vs NuSkool rave masters deliver an uplifting, powerful, pumping piano club house mix. Packed full of nostalgia and new parts to pick up the pace on any dancefloor. Get ready to put those hands in the air!

3. Ranj Kaler Remix – Lovely synth intro that builds from the start. Heavy 80’s electro vibes on the drums and stabs. Lush gated vocals and heavenly piano sections that create an uplifting, emotional warm melodic breaks masterpiece.  

4. Ben Dickeson remix – Superb production on this mix. Starting off with crisp funky breaks that that carry an infectious groove on the drums and warm bass. Teasing the ragga rap while gradually introducing some of the original vocal parts throughout the mix. Not forgetting some new fresh sounds from Ben. Ideal for any dancefloor out there. 

5. Dr SJ / Break Beat Connection remix – Label boss Dr SJ teams up with BBC to deliver a Killer Rave break mix at its finest. Hard, heavy, rough and ready.

Hold Tight: A UKG Massive! - ZP The Don (2023-11-18)

This is a big one listeners - number one of two parts . During the summer of 2023 I met up with Boris English, who you may  better know how as Borai. Breakbeat artist extraordinaire, solo artist of great repute, a corner stone of bass music in Bristol , part for the excellent Club Glow  crew and one half of the Off Beat modern hard house project with Don'tforgettogohome. Borai was super generous with his time and not only shares with us his own story  but gives us insights into the evolution of bass music in Bristol from its Jungle roots though dubstep to the present day. Alongside this we get the production tips, lessons from the music business, a guided tour of his treasure trove of a studio and of course the story of that record with that sample!

As always on the Bass Scoops we cut the interviews with some choice selections along the way from the artists back catalog and a track or too that inspired them.

This is Part 1 of 2 as it's a cracker of an interview and there is too much good stuff to hear. As its the first part we've used the young Borai pic! Handsome fella that he is lol. Part 2 coming at ya in the future.

Tracklist Part 1

1.	Let’s Jet Out (Hardcore Energy) release 2022
2.	Need You – The Club Glow Borai EP - 2021
3.	Sticky fingers  and Left Out – 2011 Borai and October – super early release on the BRSTL label
4.	Rasahaba  on the Infiltrate Label  
5.	Toasty  – The Knowledge – (Toasty)
6.	Dub fi Dub of the Cold Rushing EP 2018 on THEM 
7.	Nice Tripises – Higher Level , Boris’s own label

Flatline - No Human Sound, Andrae Durden & Kiamya

The Muff 🍫 Kit Kat Handshake – a sugary-sweet drum & bass track with a crunchy drop and a smooth finish.

Born out of a studio laugh and built on real low-end power, this tune is half meme, half mayhem — pure UK rave personality.

Expect playful vocal chops, glitchy breaks and a bassline that snaps harder than a chocolate bar in February. It’s ridiculous, it’s heavy, and it slaps exactly where it should.

Kit Kat Handshake celebrates the lighter side of drum & bass — high-energy chaos that doesn’t take itself too seriously, but still bangs on every system.
