Gremlinz & Jesta - Destro (30 Years Of Headz VIP) [Premiere]

I can't believe its been 11 months since I did the last rinse out. Had quite a few sets since there which has been nice so more live recordings than at-home mixes. I can't lie, the tracklist for this one was actually about 90% of what I played at the recent 'Rent is Due' event down at Venue MOT, but I loved the blends so much I figured I'd go back home and record it for you lot to all enjoy. Some fairly rare tuna in this one.

I’ve been a long-time admirer and fan of Mighty Moe, going all the way back to the mid-90s and the early days of Heartless Crew. We all went to the same sixth form—Islington Sixth Form College—and although we didn’t know each other at the time, I was often in the crowd at North London house parties where they were learning their craft.

Mighty Moe has always brought a positive, uplifting energy on the mic. Any party he performed at was guaranteed to be full of vibes. From those 90s house parties, to his iconic 2011 Sidewinder set with DJ EZ, to his recent 2024 appearance on DJ AG’s London livestream—the energy has always been top-tier, and the crowd participation infectious (cue the “we got the vibes, yo” lyric). Even now, listening back to those sets as I write this, I’m grinning from ear to ear.

Though best known for garage, Mighty Moe has always been a jungle lover. His roots trace back to 90s pirate radio, with London’s legendary stations like Mission 90.6, Freek FM 101.8, and Y2K 90.6, before moving on to BBC 1Xtra and gaining a MOBO nomination in the 2000s.

Fast forward 30 years, and I’m in the studio experimenting with clean, modern jungle—crisp breaks, a vibey bassline, simple and direct. I came across a Mighty Moe acapella, bursting with the energy and clarity I’ve always loved about his style. I dropped it over the beat, and it just clicked. I finished the track, sent it to him—he loved it and gave it his blessing. I’ve been playing it out, and the response has been incredible. I knew I had to do something with it.

Thinking about how to release it, I liked the idea of nodding back to sound system culture and the 90s UK Garage tradition of having a vocal with a dub version on the flip. Not just an instrumental, but a full reworking—with new drums, new bass, and a focus on weight and space. It’s a continuation of the lineage from classic King Tubby or MJ Cole dubs, reimagined in my world of modern jungle . . . Mighty Moe always with the wickedest kinda flavour!

What's Gwarnin? (Rollers Mix - Edit)

Gunston - Miami Jungle

12" Vinyl & Digital https://sq.lnk.to/APHA033S2

The Digital Delay Dub of What’s Gwarnin? Is out today. It’s a fresh take on the original with different drums, bass and a King Tubby inspired approach to dubbing the vocals using a Boss DD3 digital delay pedal, a Strymon Cloudverb and a Mackie 1604 to do live FX throws. So much fun. 

I decided on a vocal / dub package for this release as I’m a massive fan of this UK Garage 12” format. Loads of amazing 12s from MJ Cole and Ramsey & Fen had the big vocal on A side and then the murkier, rawer club dub on the flip. So much more than just an instrumental. In the words of MJ Cole “you had the vocal one in the bag and you’ve finished that and then the dub was just playtime, do whatever you want. You’ve got one in the bag, just do something rough and quick and ready”

L Plus – Timelapse / Creature Must Die 
Out Now: Stream / Buy https://Technique.lnk.to/LplusTC


It takes a certain kind of artist to make a successful album. It's a different prospect from a series of two- or four-track releases. In D&B, it takes a producer whose got a deep musical understanding and a many facets to their style so they can reconfigure to constantly hold our attention. It takes a producer who's got a story to tell and a journey through which to guide their listeners. Anyone who's been keeping up with L Plus's work over the last few years will recognise that he's one artist who fits that description precisely.

So, here's the first taste of his forthcoming debut album, “Hideout”.

“Timelapse” takes us straight into IMAX mode. The wide-open panorama conjured up by the atmospherics and the expanding percussive hits at the beginning of the track set the scene. The build keeps things crisp and clear, with L Plus showing how to create anticipation out of just a few expertly-programmed elements. And then the rowdy stomping drop, featuring immense grinding sweeps of bass, delivers on that build perfectly. And, of course, things don't stop there. You're going to want to let this one run right to the end, to take in the full majesty of the visceral deconstruction of the tune in the extended outro.

Then, we enter a twisted world of B-movie sci-fi with “Creature Must Die”. Dissonant pads and reverberant drums back up the eponymous dialogue sample in the intro, building to a stripped-back robot funk bass drop. This is far from being everything that L Plus has to offer in this track, though. The deftly executed builds and riffs, deploying discord to powerfully tension-increasing effect, bind the track together creating a wave of movement which belies the deceptively simple beat and bassline pattern. This is a stepper which is sure to find a home in the arsenal of many discerning selectors.

Ever since L Plus landed on Technique Recordings he's been consistently impressive. Connoisseurs will have detected the subtle musical brain at work even in his most rhythm-driven floor-fillers. And, those same connoisseurs will already be getting hyped for “Hideout”. As this first salvo demonstrates, it's going to be something monumental.

Beginning his journey just over 10 years ago, Freek started off teaching himself the ways of drum and bass and debuted in the scene several years his first digital release in 2010. This was the start to a musical adventure as Freek. His inspiration coming from all spectrums, he is known for being the first to pickup a guitar or jump on the piano at every opportunity and this reflects in his very out there productions that we hear today. Taking a huge inspiration from so many different sources has meant that his catalogue of music is extremely varied going from the hardest hitting jump up to the most subtle and musical liquid pieces. 

His first major release was Cobalt 60 that was released on the Ram Annual 2016 and he has gone from strength to strength since with multiple releases on several VA compilations across RAM and PROGRAM. Taking time out in 2018 to focus on his production technique and develop his sound he's now ready to show the world what he's been cooking up!
