We're back! January might have flown by, but we're kicking off 2025 with fresh energy. Expect some changes to the podcast and future music releases this year—more on that soon.

Music digger, fanatical record collector, fan of low frequencies and dub echoes.  Unlimited by genres, he can reach for ambient-downtempo sounds as well as fast, jungle/hardcore arrangements.  His favorite tempo, however, remains 140bpm, in which he combines experimental bass, dubstep, future garage or break with more danceable genres such as uk garage, uk bass or techno.
