Metalheadz Show RinseFM 20/08/14 with Friske, DLR b2b Mako

Like a lot of prominent drum & bass producers, Duncan Busto’s story begins in the late ‘80s when he was a little more besotted with hip hop. Whilst spending his time in record shops stocking up on import 12”s, he was convinced by a friend to make the move from music collector to disc jockey and a flourishing fleet of DJ bookings followed in the wake of that decision. After acid house had fully bloomed in London, chance encounters, serendipity and the influence of Commercial Suicide boss, Klute and the seminal techno outfit, Ubik, led to the Ipswich based Busto putting together the basics of a home studio in which he started making his own take on the sorts of electronic music he was playing out. 

Now Busto’s firmly ingrained as one of drum & bass’ old guard. Having played around the world and released music on a long list of coveted d&b labels like Shogun Audio, Violence, Metalheadz, CIA and Renegade Hardware he’s reportedly just reopened the doors to his own labels, Phantom Audio, which he began back in 1998 alongside his kindred producer, Digital and his own solo venture, Inneractive. Having recently returned to the UK from a five year stint in the USA, 2015 is already looking like a new chapter for Busto who’s already cued up releases on a raft of labels including Doc Scott’s 31 Records, Metalheadz and Warm Communications, so we’re pleased to be welcoming him back with open arms this Friday (20th February) where he’ll play alongside DJ Marky and Lenzman in the Innerground hosted Room Two. 

With all that in mind, Busto took the time to make us a mixtape that proves to all and sundry that his selections are just as acute as they ever were, putting together something special as a precursor to his set this Friday…

It’s been a little while since we’ve had our very own ArpXP step up to the controls for a SUNANDBASS podcast, but with his latest EP ‘Somewhere Else’ just screeched out the door here at the label, it felt like the right moment to get him to wheel up for us.

Sit back and enjoy 60 minutes of deep, nourishing ear canal atmos from the Sardinian maestro. It really is pleasant.

SUNANDBASS Podcast #86 - ArpXP

Jade, one of the primary architects of the neurofunk sound, presents the latest release on his distinguished imprint Eatbrain;
Telekinesis – The Nightwalkers EP. Telekinesis - the highly praised Slovenian duo consisting of Smooth and Markoman - joins an already drool-worthy roster of neurofunk talent on Eatbrain, further solidifying the label’s reputation as a stalwart of quality drum and bass. And with names like Concord Dawn and MC Coppa in the equation, the 6th release on Eatbrain stands out as a must-own for any neurofunk head.

Nightwalkers EP kicks off with an dynamic collaboration between Telekinesis and Coppa, the Berlin-based MC who's collaborations with Prolix and Mindscape made enormous waves within the drum and bass scene in 2012. Telekinesis’s knack for atmosphere comes into full effect at the outset before Coppa's infectious rhymes take hold, winding things up into an irresistible drop. Still possessing the same raw ferocity that Telekinesis has become known for, 'Pocket Full Of Drops' takes their sound into playful territory. Combining their dirty signature bass, cleanly constructed drums, and Coppa's clever lyricism, 'Pocket Full of Drops' a true mood-lifter bound to crush any dancefloor it touches. Good vibes, plain and simple. 

Next up, New Zealand badboy Concord Dawn features on the EP's eponymous track, 'Nightwalkers.' Opening with an optimistic-sounding concoction of warm pads, a light drum break, and shimmering synth arpeggios, the melody soon takes a darker turn as the full-moon comes out and the dead begin to rise. By the time the tune drops, it's too late - you've already been bitten by Telekinesis and Concord Dawn's monstrous musical creation, and there is no hope for you. One thing is certain; 'Nightwalkers' is a hauntingly contagious track capable of turning an otherwise normal human into a mindless dancing abomination. Beware.

The EP's third track, 'Lich,' promises to slay crowds with its upbeat neurofunk vibes. Clean drums, spirited keys, and a dirty yet carefully polished bassline make this energetic roller a dangerous piece of ammunition. Nightwalkers EP wraps up with a truly fun yet complex exercise in future funk, 'She Wants To Skate'. A tune made purely for the dancefloor, 'She Wants To Skate' jumps right into things with tight, lively drums and an uplifting synth riff. Telekinesis's trademark bass warms itself up, before ripping into full swing at the drop, twisting and turning throughout the track amidst a catchy chopped up vocal. 'She Wants To Skate' is a particularly infectious joint, bound to get bodies moving and put smiles on faces.

DJ Support includes... Teebee, Phace, Bad Comany, Black Sun Empire, Crissy Criss, Jade, Dirtyphonics, Maztek, Basher, Trei, John B, Treo, Mind Vortex, Logistics, No Money, Empress, Drumsound, Culture Shock, Bailey, AMC, Mob Tactics, Nymfo, Chris SU, Matrix, Task Horizon, AK1200, Syncopix, Doc Scott, Optiv, Rido, Cause4Concern, Zardonic, The Risky, Aeph.

For the second set in the „first timer“ series we go all the way back to almost the beginning. While we had a small local party at Isuledda in 2003, the first official sunandbass edition happened in 2004. Our goal was to have an international crowd of artists and drum & bass lovers, and Chris joined us together with Suzie and SKC plus his partner. They drove all the way from Hungary and spent the whole week with us, embracing the idea of having a holiday together. Since then Chris has been a regular artist on our line up and become part of the SUNANDBASS family. He is also one of those artists that always bring their  family. First it was just Suzie and him, then they added a little junglette. If I’m not mistaken he only missed one year when his daughter was born. 

The set has been recorded at Ripping (back then it was called Pa-Ki-Ki, but only for that one year). It has been included on the SUNANDBASS 2004 DVD, that was produced by MZAM and his Zoon Designs crew. When listening back I realized Chris anticipated a couple of SUNANDBASS classics that have been played ever since. Sit back and travel back to the early days of our beloved SUNANDBASS.

I like pleasure spiked with pain.. music is my aeroplane :)

Ant TC1 along with Hidden Agenda founded Dispatch Recordings back in 2001, Ant originally helped out with the management side of the label before finding his feet within the realms of production; which was a natural progression for him having DJ’d on pirate radio and in clubs from the age of 14 (since 1992).  His first release alongside frequent production partner Stress Level appeared on Dispatch after almost 3 years of hard work getting their collective sound where they felt it needed to be before even thinking about turning on a DAT recorder.  After their first release hit the stores they quickly picked up a wealth of DJ support across their early material and went on to release for a who’s who list of established Drum & Bass record labels including the likes of Renegade, CIA, Advanced, Critical Records Integral, Liquid V, Commercial Suicide, Good Looking Records, Bingo Beats and Samurai Music.

By demand remix work started to feature heavily within their output and the duo went on to remix for the likes of Hidden Agenda, Chris SU, Artificial Intelligence, Kabuki, Total Science, Optical & Ryme Time (Jagged Edge), Atlantic Connection, Tactile & DJ Marky.  Branching out and working with other producers such as Survival, DLR & Philth has only furthered experience Ant’s skills at the controls over the years, Ant has also released his own solo material more recently on top of remixing for the likes of Lomax on Integral Records.  In 2014 Ant realised a lifetime ambition, securing his first ever release for the legendary Metalheadz label “Hungry For Atmosphere” alongside Mako, DLR & Villem with further releases for the label and counting going into 2024.

Ant’s production output has featured on a mass of compilations and mix CD’s compiled by the likes of Shy FX, LTJ Bukem, Total Science, AI, Spectrasoul, Klute and Brian G.  Additionally his work has featured very heavily within the radio shows of Friction, Grooverider, Fabio, Goldie, Bailey & Rene LaVice on their respective BBC Radio 1 slots over the years as well as BBC 1Xtra where Ant once hosted his own one-off 4 hour show, he has since additionally made 2 guest DJ appearances for DJ Friction on his Radio 1 show.  His DJ’ing work has seen him play all over the globe from Adelaide to Los Angeles, from Hong Kong to Sarajevo, Vancouver to Bangkok and last but by no means least regularly UK and EU wide. Additionally for the most part of the decade beyond 2010 Ant also worked as the Artist Manager for both Outlook and Dimensions Festival in Croatia, leading up the booking process, budgets and travel aspects for the festival.

Fast forward through to 2024; Ant is now responsible for the lead label management roles of both Metalheadz & Dispatch Recordings and is based in Thailand, with a purpose built studio room recently finished the plan (alongside managing a mass of planned record label releases) is to get back to focusing on writing music more consistently than he ever has previously.
