Drum & Bass Sessions - Your Mother's Favorite Dj's Favorite Dj

Sinister.  Heavy.  Fierce.

pa has releases on many labels, though this mix focuses mostly on his Grid output.  He puts out dance floor bombs that still retain their darkness.  But, a lot of his productions carefully balance lighter elements and sounds against his clinical and crisp sound design.  Most importantly- THEY ALL SLAP HARD.
 
Big ups to @pamuzik-1 for all the records.  Be sure to check out his artist page for new releases and downloads.

Tracks include:  
Remember Me
No Seeds
Final Love
Mouth Almighty - my personal favorite
Minimal Man
Annabelle
Dragon Fist VIP
Watchers
Friends
Infection
Dragon Town
Addicted to Love
Ready
Ghost Town
Attitudes
Now Selecta
Merky Water
Set It
Japanese Fist
Fight My Uncle
Bounce
Cyanide
Monkey Style
LSD

Thank you for listening.  Please feel free to comment, share, or critique.  Most importantly- Enjoy.

D&BS - Hello Dark E08 - pa

It's Saturday, the sun is shining- so it's time to get dark...
From RA "BTK is a name associated with colossal and diverse production credentials. The London-based DJ and producer have gained a revered reputation worldwide. His music has appeared on Metalheadz, Blackout Music, Dispatch, Playaz, Shogun Audio, Ram Records, Virus Recordings, and V Records to name a few. The wide range of imprints that have featured his music has helped build a dynamically firm foundation in the scene. BTK’s releases regularly receive huge support from some of the scene's biggest DJs."

All tracks produced by @duttyaudio BTK, @optiv Optiv, or BTK & Optiv together.  The records were all pulled from the Dutty Audio back catalogue.

Big ups and many thanks to @nitro_b for teaching me what subgenre I play and for the unwavering support while I try to figure out the drums. 🙏🏼🫡

Thank you for listening, commenting, and sharing.  Enjoy!

D&BS - Hello Dark E06 - BTK & Optiv (The Lost Episode)

This man needs no introduction. He's been producing cutting edge drum & bass since the 1990's.  Current Value has releases on most major dnb labels as well as a fantastic remix that he did for Bjork.  The man is epic as are his productions.

His bass lines are utter insanity- dark, twisting, and ever-evolving ear worms.

Check the man out here @tim-e-aka-current-value

Thank you for having a listen, leaving a comment, or sharing.

D&BS - Hello Dark E11 - Current Value Pt 1

Put your plugs in, lay down, and go for a ride...

D&BS - Pillow Talk

Welcome to the latest episode of Hello Dark...

You would be keen to think that Oli has been in the game for decades, but you would be wrong.  At barely a quarter of a century old he has had releases on plenty of major labels such as Grid and V Recordings. His bass lines are immediately noticeable, but he shifts and drifts through sounds and sub-genres with wicked precision.  Mr. Lewis is in this game for the long haul, and the scene is better for it.

Big up and a debt of gratitude to Oli himself for supporting this project and providing a plethora of unreleased tracks and dubs.  He's pure class through and through.

Check out his music @olilewisdnb, and you can find links to his socials there.

Thank you for listening, commenting, and sharing if you're moved to do so.  But most of all, enjoy the music.

Cheers, 
Arleigh

Neuro To The Funk Vol 3

Well, it's been a while...

Welcome to 2024 and a new episode of Hello Dark.  While this is not the darkest of dark episodes it does sound pretty wicked thanks to the spotlight of the mix - Teej.

Teej is Bristol based and has releases on, well, a LOT of labels.  He has released on Sofa Sound, 31 Recordings, Flexout, OCC, Trust Audio and more.  His productions are razor sharp with intelligent sound design and dark, sometimes minimal grooves.  Check out his music on SC @teejdnb

Thank you for listening, leaving a comment, or sharing if so inclined.

Enjoy!

Teej - Hello Dark E13

Welcome to another episode of Hello Dark...

I reached out to @angalardub and asked if I could take a go at making a mix of his work.  I had no idea how prolific of a producer he is- he makes top-notch, minimal drum & bass bangers, breaks tracks, and other electronic music.  The productions are always tight and on point.  While the tracks themselves may have a minimal aesthetic, they are very dense.  Also, his basses are wild.

Check out his work on SC @angalardub
Download his tracks and see his discography @angalardub.bandcamp.com/music

Hello Dark E14 - an galar dub

Hello Dark E15 - Molecular

I love drum&bass...  But my first and forever love is Chicago house.  I love it all.  Well, not all- no country or trance.  Apologies.
Let me hear the weird shit...
I couldn't do this without all of the amazing people making music for me to play for fun...  Your talents are appreciated.  I'm not a pro...  I just play music for fun so that I have something to listen to.  Maybe you like a mix.  Maybe not.  Keep listening and the odds are that one will hit with you.  I know there is SO MUCH CONTENT on here and other sites, so the fact that you stopped here, read this, or listened to part of a mix means a lot.  I don't want to play out.  I just want to rock your headphones to get you through a rough day, a workout, a commute- whatever it is you need.
Thank you to the listeners, the commenters, and the sharers...  Much love.
Cheers.
