Tim Reaper On NTS Radio - 5th July 2023

The festive season is here and I just hit 2 million plays, so it's a double celebration. Now if, like me, you think that nothing says Christmas like a bit of soul-crushingly dark techstep then I'm sure this festive offering won't disappoint. Indeed, this idea is one I've been sat on for a while; my mixing habits have definitely slowed this year but I really wanted to grind a decent one out before 2025. 

The mix rationale then. Caught up somewhere between my 500th listening of Trace & Ed Rush's legendary '97 One In The Jungle set, and the preceding year's Tech Steppin compilation, I found myself asking a simple question. What if the legendary (and it really is fucking legendary) 'No U-Turn Experience' mix had been made a year earlier? Why don't you ponder that for a minute, grab a large Baileys, pop this on and kick back. Merry Christmas.

PS. I couldn't post this up without a big shout to Nico @messingaboutwithsounds. His interview with Bailey earlier in the year gave a fascinating insight into the formation of this scene. What a dude. If you missed it and this is your kinda thing, well, it's essential viewing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cdPwJ4d5Jw

It's been a while...

What's left to say about Trace? D&B would not be the same without him. This mix covers all styles from his early darkcore in 93/94, roughed up jungle in 1995, and of course following that thread through the birth of Tech Step from 95 onwards.
