Ulterior Motives launch their main label with a single from DJ Persuasion, featuring a Liftin’ Spirits remix from Ant Miles. The label, which is helmed by DJ and producer Noah Tucker, began life in 2021 with an anonymous edit of a much-loved underground hip hop gem. Two further 12”s in the white label series followed along similar lines, joining the dots between jungle, footwork and r’n’b in UM style. Since then, they have also launched their cassette series with a Metrist mix covering golden era tech step and d’n’b.

DJ Persuasion is principally known for A History Of Hardcore, a series of ten mixes covering ’88-’98 which appeared across a number of platforms between 2015 and 2020. Certain entries in the series appeared on cassette via The Trilogy Tapes, Blackest Ever Black (Id Mud) and Tape Echo. Persuasion also hosted the NTS Demon Poetry show (now the Drum Poetry show) for some years, and contributed In Focus sessions covering the work of Dillinja and LTJ Bukem, alongside Dev:Null.

Jameela EP covers four contrasting, but also concentric areas of the hardcore continuum, featuring a remix from Liftin’ Spirits aka Ant Miles of Origin Unknown. The title track rolls out at bleeding edge jungle hardcore tempo, taking in a mixture of familiar and unfamiliar references. Liftin’ Spirits contributes a standout remix which reframes Jameela as a drum’n’bass epic, opening with a panoramic intro and a quaking bass drop, then building to soaring strings. Robin Gets Revenge is an audial intervention into one of the last remaining unsolved mysteries in acid house, and a stomping 89’-’90 style jammer to boot. The B2 finds Jameela in a slower guise, offering something for after the club and the warm up.

Ahead of his headline appearance under his raw and groove-laden Bakongo moniker at our event with Funky Adjacent on November 23rd (https://ra.co/events/1987058), for this episode of INSIGHTS, I'm joined by Wayne Goodlitt aka Roska, UK Funky royalty and pioneering DJ producer whose unwavering dedication to the genre and incredible output has rightfully earned him legend status. His Roska Kicks & Snares imprint has been a cornerstone of UK Funky for over 15 years, a true constant throughout the peaks and troughs of the genre's popularity, as fresh and vital now as it was back in the late 2000s.

Over the course of this interview, Wayne discusses the influence of soundsystem culture and pirate radio in his early years, the timeline of UK Funky and the peaks and troughs of the genres popularity, the fork in the road between Funky and Grime and the melting pot of other distinctly London sounds that helped forge the genre, as well as the current vanguard of artists and Funky's future. Next, Wayne highlights significant releases from the vast Kicks & Snares back catalogue, discusses other creative channels via his Bakongo alias, before concluding with some favourite Bandcamp picks and spotlighting future projects. 

Clips of ‘Climate Change’ and ‘Bounce’ ft Serocee by Roska are featured in this podcast.
