Dear Mix Diary,
Nearly four weeks since I wrote a mix diary entry! Croakheads is doing a takeover for the Proelium Audio/Basscamp London Sunset Party to support Blooom/VOE/Ruth Royall. So I’m using this as an opportunity to help last-minute promote their event!
Oh god, last month’s recap, let’s go…
* Launched Croakheads North! (We kept that one quiet, hey?)
* Played MAIN room at Volks, Brighton - bucket list moment!
* Supported Jam Thieves at the Shape Up Sounds/Infected Events night in Torquay.
* Met some really cool people in Torquay that have become friends.
* More Code South Radio adventures (and sausage rolls).
* Croakheads is playing for the Sunset Party takeover to support Blooom/VOE/Ruth Royall.
* Announced Planet Wax Croakheads Invites night on 14th August.
* About to announce a collective takeover night on 19th September with a headliner.
* Organised my 30th joint birthday event in London with friends. Poster is amazing.
* Met up with Charis who gave me some basic production lessons/took headshots.
* Formed an amazing Ambassadors team that are super dedicated.
* Those Ambassadors and admin launched our streaming service! Thank you!
* Reorganised and restructured the entire team of Croakheads… Busy!
* Some more edits mixes with great DJs.
* Connected with crazy amounts of collectives. I’ve lost count.
* Went to a great Overview event at Volks and met new people/saw lovely friends.
* Put up our event posters all over Stokes Croft/Bristol for our event soon.
* Met Mark from Basement 45 and their venue team. Nice people.

Co-Lab Recordings Podcast hosted by Benny Colab - POD080 - July 2025

Short and sweet mix filled with dubs and released bangers.

Kalane Summer Mix 2025

The legendary DJ Rap returns with a powerhouse 2025 remix of her beloved jungle anthem “Intelligent Woman” featuring Outlaw Candy, this time reimagined by the fierce rising talent DJ KONETIX.
Originally a timeless classic in the Drum & Bass scene, Intelligent Woman has stood the test of time as a PROPA legacy tune, empowering, iconic, and deeply rooted in the underground. This year alone, the track received two standout reworks: first, a heavyweight remix by Aries ♈️, featured in DJ Rap’s Propa Legacy Album (avail www.djrap.com)… and now, this jaw-dropping new version by KONETIX.
The 2025 remix keeps that unforgettable classic intro, then rips through the speakers with raw stabs, deep jungle textures, and face-melting 808 basslines, a sonic journey that bridges the gap between generations, giving new life to a track that defined an era.
Whether you’re a long-time head or brand new to jungle, this remix is pure energy, pure emotion, and 100% PROPA.

Intelligent Woman

Intelligent Woman (Konetix Remix)

Drex174 lands on Metalheadz with a heavyweight five-tracker that marks a bold new chapter.

Back from a hiatus and firing on all cylinders, the UK producer handed in five demos, all of them got signed. No edits, no hesitation. Goldie himself made the call.

Blending classic Metalheadz influence with razor-sharp modern production, this debut is pure Drex174: tough, emotional, and made for the rave. Think break-heavy rollers, darkroom pressure, and that unmistakable Headz energy.

A powerful statement from an artist reborn — and this is just the beginning.

Stream it, save it, shell it.
