Dusty Selections // Mix Series

There was an old One Nation tape from the Essential Festival at Hackney Marshes. Ed Rush w/ Skibba, Det, Fearless - all on absolute fire. Needless to say the tape got battered and I rediscovered it again recently. Managed to ID more tracks off it and thought I'd see what happened when adding in some tracks from more recently. This one is uptempo and relentless, the best in militant, technical and funky D&B. Nothing chilled about this set! Enjoy.

Dusty Selections // 2001 v 2010 'Future Warfare' Tech Selection

I recently went to 30 years of V recordings @ Fabric and was reminded of SO MANY TUNES. From the original Dons of the scene especially. It inspired me to go crate digging, see what you think :) The last 20 mins I just kept thinking of tunes I wanted to play and the mixing dropped off a bit, but to be fair some of these deserved to be dusted off and played in entirety x

Dusty Selections // 'That Room 2 Sound System' Mix

Ah hour of 140 bpm tracks that connect with me. Featuring a lot of tracks by D&B artists that made the switch to dubstep. Skeptical's new 'Tell Me' EP features heavily as well as a lot of old classics. As standard the heaviness is sandwiched between some more mellow moments. Big up Icicle, one of the best dubstep producers IMO... Enjoy x
