Thumpa @ Lichfield Fuse Festival 12.07.25 (New & Classic D&B)

A deep dive into the early releases on the Back 2 Basics sub label that ran from 1994 to 2000, releasing music from Ascend, Ultravibe, Technical Itch, JB and more. At first glance the label could be considered 90s record box filler but I love how the label could hop from atmospheric jungle to vocals to big wobbly basslines and amens to hip hop jump up and darkness. Enjoy!

Thumpa - The Second Movement Sessions

Here's part 1 of my deep dive into one of my favourite D&B labels of all time, Back 2 Basics! Set up by JB aka Jason Ball in 1993, the label would run to 2008 with nearly 100 vinyl releases and more albums, mix CDs etc. Being a midlands lad myself I have grown up with this label and bought everything I could 96 onwards. 

The label released music from JB, Spice, Dred Bass, Twisted Individual, Decoder, Ascend, Ned Ryder and loads more and was a really important part of my teenage years as a DJ and raver! Enjoy this look into their 94/95 releases...

Thumpa - Let's Go Back 2 Basics Part 1 (1994 - 1995 Jungle)

Part II of my dedication mixes to one of Jungle/ Drum & Bass' pioneers. This mix picks up where Pt I finished in 1994 and takes us through to 1996....
