The 2 hour format of this stream is one I've become so accustomed to  over time that I've fallen into some kind of well-worn routine of how I approach filling the time. The downside of that is that when I play IRL gigs and I only have one hour to fill, I have a hard time jumping right into the explosive sound and pacing you need to catch and hold the attention of say, a festival crowd. I've been digging through my collection and building more expansive playlists than I normally would in order to force myself out of my comfort zone and try out different set structures, but also to play the type of energetic tunes I tend to avoid sometimes. Sometimes the experiments work, sometimes they don't, but it's always an entertaining endeavor trying to find out.

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP98|APR15|2023)

This set is dedicated to FunkBaby, our beloved sister, friend, and my favorite DJ. She was a beacon of love and light in our community. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about her or wish she was still here with us. But I do know that she would want her family and friends to never stop dancing, laughing, and loving in her honor. So this set is not only dedicated to FunkBaby, but it is also dedicated to her family and friends. Never stop dancing! Enjoy the Journey. I love you all!

This set was performed at Earthfest 2023 on April 21, 2023 at Maddox Ranch in Lakeland, FL.

Jungle Bliss Vol. 4 - Live At North Jetty Beach on Casey Key

While working this last week I had a continuous playlist on YouTube automatically select the first couple LTJ Bukem's Progression Session mixes. Listening to those mixes again (after a really long time) totally brought me back to that mid to late 90s period when atmospheric (or "intelligent drum & bass" as it was known back then) was really cutting edge stuff. I have such fond memories of that period of time — going record shopping and playing my first big boy raves... Anyway, long story short, that spell of nostalgia made me go digging through my Rekordbox collection for suitable tunes to try to recreate that heady, spacey, blissful vibe on the stream this week, albeit with as current as possible tunes.

A large section of the first hour is all classic sounding atmospheric with that chunky drum programming. Some jazzy and funk-influenced bits thrown in there too... From there it moves into hour two with some drumfunk roller energy before slipping into "endless summer" liquid vibes featuring a nice section of classic amen rollers; some old, some new. I kept playing a bit longer again this week, since my boy Dough who usually follows me was still out of commission. Ended with some of my favorite deep soulful cuts. I had lots of fun playing this week. Big shouts to the LLL chat crew for keeping it lively!

DnB Girls Podcast #46 - SEAGLASS

This one's kind of a "everything but the kitchen sink" session. There's atmospheric, jazzy liquid, soulful liquid, amen rollers, dub ragga rollers, jungle, minimal tech rollers, sci-fi liquid rollers... Big shouts to all the homies who pulled up. I was feeling the love and quite enjoyed this sesh even if some parts were not as technically perfect as I would have wanted. There's always next week 💜

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP112|AUG26|2023)

Besides all the new music that came out this week, I went deep into the LLL archives to find older tracks I've played on the stream before but for some reason I never revisited or put more widely into rotation. There's definitely a few gems in there I was able to slip into the mix. EP114 covers some ground starting on a deep and melodic soulful liquid note and expanding on that over the first 45 min to an hour when things get a bit more bassline driven. We move into minimal and dubby tech roller territory at the start of hour 2 into some darker rollers and some big room vocal numbers. For the last 30 we dip back down into some sci-fi and futuristic soul rollers till the end.

I was quite happy to be back after being away for a week. Music is forever therapeutic and spending time sharing it with friends is always a double win. Join us live at 5pm EST on Twitch for some chill Saturday sessions: www.twitch.tv/drcmachina

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP114|SEPT16|2023)

2 hour Sunday session to make up for missing my Saturday stream. I tried to cycle through a few  flavors of vibey drum'n bass, starting off with some spacey bassline driven liquid at the start, then dipping into some deeper cuts for the first hour. The beginning of the second hour is mostly techy and minimal rollers before moving into some wonky rollers and ending with some jungle-tinted numbers. Glad I decided to fit this sesh in!

Holler at me if you need track IDs, and don't forget to smash that repost if you dig the sounds. Big up!

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP118|OCT29|2023)

If you know me you're probably aware I'm not a huge fan of playing B2B sets. It's hard to get 2 people on the same page to play a set that flows. However, I've probably tagged more times with Keith Mac than anyone else ever, so when he asked me to play an all DNB set with him at the Jungle Bells afterparty it was a no-brainer.

Both of us being as busy as we are, there was very little time to compare playlists but in the end, it's about trust. Trust yourself to not be the weak link 🤣

Keith MacKenzie B2B D:RC - Live @ Jungle Bells Afterparty 2023 ATL

Liquid Lovers Lounge livestream on Twitch. 2 hours of liquid rollers + minimal tech + other vibey drum'nbass: www.twitch.tv/drcmachina. Check socials for schedule 

D:RC came up DJing (mostly drum'nbass) in the mid-90s while attending the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga. As founding member of the local Phungus, Playtheavy and Sleuth Empire crews he found himself at the center of a burgeoning rave scene, collaborating with friends on dance music events in the Athens/Atlanta areas and beyond.

In 2004 he founded Studio:Machina, a graphic design practice geared towards the music industry. Building on his behind the scenes expertise and keen artistic instincts he's become an in-demand contributor on artistic projects in a variety of media. He's toured the US as member of the Smookie Illson bass music trio, serves as creative director for the Chicago-based Illeven:Eleven Recordings label and functions as brand/art director of several nightlife concepts. 

Behind the decks he currently heavily favors the sounds of DNB, but brief forays into breakbeat, house, UK Garage + Bass and dubstep are not uncommon. Get to know.
