AfterDarkRadio - Source Direct Incognito

The festive season is here and I just hit 2 million plays, so it's a double celebration. Now if, like me, you think that nothing says Christmas like a bit of soul-crushingly dark techstep then I'm sure this festive offering won't disappoint. Indeed, this idea is one I've been sat on for a while; my mixing habits have definitely slowed this year but I really wanted to grind a decent one out before 2025. 

The mix rationale then. Caught up somewhere between my 500th listening of Trace & Ed Rush's legendary '97 One In The Jungle set, and the preceding year's Tech Steppin compilation, I found myself asking a simple question. What if the legendary (and it really is fucking legendary) 'No U-Turn Experience' mix had been made a year earlier? Why don't you ponder that for a minute, grab a large Baileys, pop this on and kick back. Merry Christmas.

PS. I couldn't post this up without a big shout to Nico @messingaboutwithsounds. His interview with Bailey earlier in the year gave a fascinating insight into the formation of this scene. What a dude. If you missed it and this is your kinda thing, well, it's essential viewing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cdPwJ4d5Jw

I was fortunate enough to receive some records from Spirit's own collection, from someone who had been sent them by Digital. 

I felt that it would be fitting to present them for all to enjoy by way of a mix, just over an hour of music that reflects the various facets of Spirit's production style, along with that of his long time collaborator and friend, Digital.

Vykhod Sily Podcast - Alex Corton Guest Mix

This mix presents a more chilled side of Dillinja. These are mostly tunes from '94 to '96, when he was a studio hermit putting in his 10,000 hours and finding his sound. The tough beats and chest crushing bass are present, but these earlier tracks have a breathy ambience that nicely balance the heaviness. IMO 30 years on they still smoke 99% of today's jungle revival tracks. Track list is below. Enjoy!

00:00 Dillinja - Sovereign Melody (Deadly Vinyl, 1994)
03:36 Dillinja - Breathe (Deep Jungle, 2018)
07:25 Dillinja - Another Dimension (Deep Jungle, 2017)
10:19 Basic Influence - Still Waters (Run Deep Mix) (Hardleaders, 1997)
13:31 Björk - Cover Me (Dillinja Mix) (One Little Indian, 1996)
17:13 Dillinja - Deadly Deep Subs (Remix) (Razors Edge, 1996)
21:37 Dillinja - Brutal Bass (Metalheadz, 1995)
24:49 Dillinga - Follow Me (Kickin, 1995)
26:31 Dillinja & Bryan Gee - Bad Man (Amen Mix) (V, 2015)
29:37 Capone - Mysteries Of The Deep (Hardleaders, 1996)
33:13 Dillinja - Promise (Metalheadz, 1997)

💿 Album: Valinor
Artist: Phonk’m
Label: Dirty Fur Records

Valinor is a liquid drum & bass odyssey — a journey through misty mornings, vinyl crackles, and fading autumn light. Crafted by Phonk’m, CEO of Dirty Fur Records, this album drifts between nostalgia and rebirth, mirroring the voyage of elves to their eternal realm: Valinor.

Each track unfolds like a chapter of renewal — gentle breaks, warm subs, and rain-soaked textures blending into a soundscape that feels both ancient and alive. The vinyl hiss and seasonal ambience aren’t just details — they’re the air around the music, wrapping every rhythm in the glow of memory.

Featuring ethereal adlibs and heartfelt vocals from Natalya (big love for her voice and writing), Valinor tells a story of letting go, moving forward, and finding beauty in the in-between.

A tribute to change.
A return to peace.
A new beginning. 🌫️✨
