Fierce has been an important figure in drum & bass for a long old time now. First starting out on No U-Turn at the age of 16 in the mid ‘90s, he’s gone on to properly earn his stripes, gracing respected labels like Prototype, Ram, Virus and so many more whilst setting up his own imprint Quarantine along the way. In short, the man’s reputation carries all across d&b and to all corners of its spectrum. You could call him a DJ’s DJ, or you could just call him what he is, namely insanely committed to exploring and scoring the nether regions of his chosen form. Fierce has always got material that other people don’t and he’s got an incredible knack and fusing it with tracks people know a bit better with aplomb. He really gets it, on a technical and physical level so we’re chuffed to be able to present this promo mix from him ahead of his upcoming back to back set with Zero T in Room Three on Friday 27th March.

Trace: Return to the Source (Live in Auckland, NZ, ’99)

London-based DJ and aspiring producer Gaia steps up to host this month’s SUNANDBASS Podcast! Known for her fusion of liquid and minimal styles, Gaia champions underground sounds while always honoring the genre’s heritage. She’s been making waves with performances for Hospitality, Liquicity and Fabio’s new Generation Liquid—showcasing her versatility behind the decks. This mix takes listeners on a journey: from lush, melodic vibes to deep, dark minimal—with a touch of funk along the way. Think a sonic ride from daytime at La Cinta to the late hours at Ambra Night.
