Welcome to episode 538 of the Everyday Junglist Podcast!

Thank you EN.VEE for your mix on episode 537!

Episode 538 brings us the boss of Sydonia Recordings, bad gyal, Pheme!!

Pheme's mix starts tuff with some rugged amen bizz, flipping into some rollers, and throwing you straight back into those filthy amens! She cools things down a bit with some dubby rollers. The mix culminates with heavy upfront tunes, amens, and rollers! Check the tracklist for tunes from her label, Sydonia Recordings! Pheme smashed this mix!!

Let's meet our dj for episode 538, Pheme: 

1. Tell us about any exciting gigs and guest mixes you have coming up?

I'm 8 months preggo, so nothing in the pipeline as of yet, but I have been in talks with some people, with some possible bookings later on this year. Shout out to Cash and the crew at Code who had me play for them in Feb - It was a great night and I felt super empowered DJing pregnant!

2. Tell us about what's coming up on Sydonia Recordings?

Sydonia's been put on the back-burner for now as we've got a lil junglist on the way, but we will still be releasing guest mixes throughout this year. Keep your eyes peeled for those!

3. Has anyone caught you dancing in front of the mirror?

My boyfriend probably has a few times! I love a good dance - more so in a club than looking at myself though!

Welcome to episode 545 of the Everyday Junglist Podcast!


Episode 545 brings us a mix from the co-founder of Full Spectrum Bristol, one-half of the duo Arterial, and label boss of 2point2music, Kodeka!

Kodeka's mix amazing, is a head nodder! She flawlessly, flows through rollers, amens, and upfront tunes. Highlighting tunes from Arterial and 2point2music, along with classics, older bits, and some newer business!! Kodeka smashes this mix to bits!!

Let's meet our dj for episode 545, Kodeka:

1. Tell us about upcoming plans for Full Spectrum 
We’ve decided, this year to focus on why we started in the first place, to get more Queer, Black and Female artists on line ups. We're hosting as many shows as we can to promote and support as many artists as we can. Each of our line ups is always unique and brings all the different flavours of underground DnB & Jungle here in Bristol. Next, we’re back at The Plough for the first time this year, where I’ll be playing alongside Asha Binx and two incredible DJs (Neon Pumps and Haydee) we met through our open decks at To The Moon. We’ve booked so many artists based on those shows. Our 4th Birthday in July, we’re hosting our first day rave at The Cider Box. We’re going to be showcasing some of our favourite artists who’ve been a big part of our journey. We’re fast approaching our 100th mix in our Soundcloud series, that we started in 2020!

2. What forthcoming releases do Arterial have coming up? 
Making tunes has had to be put on the backburner as my main freelance work as a Buyer for Film & TV means that now we’ve started filming I don’t have much time to myself. We'll be back at after August. We’ve always got a couple of tracks on the go that I’m excited to try out at The Plough and I’m sure we will have them up on our label 2point2music soon.

Welcome to episode 550 of the Everyday Junglist Podcast!

For this episode, we bring you a fantastic mix from unbelievably talented, dj and producer, Pixl!

Before we get to the mix, I'm going to showcase 5 of my favorite Pixl tunes, that you should get: Future Earth (feat EN.VEE), Frosts of Neptune, Elysian Tide, Pixl & Peeb-Koi Fable, and Depth Charge!

Pixl's mix is beautiful journey through drumfunk and all things amen!! Pixl fluidly moves from track to track with amazing ease, setting an incredible vibe for this mix! The mix has tons of exclusives, many from Pixl himself, so keep those eyes peeled, along with other great artists! Pixl put together a masterpiece, get your ears on this one!

Let's meet our dj for episode 550, Pixl:

1. Tell us about upcoming releases you have:

I’ve been writing a lot of music with Peeb and Duburban recently, so my next few releases are mostly collabs with one or both of them. Peeb and I recently released a track called Koi Fable on Transmute Recordings, which is out on vinyl and digital. I’ve also got collabs lined up for release on Gunns Road Music, as well as things coming on AKO Beatz and Over/Shadow.

2. Tell us about your show on Jungletrain.

I started on Jungletrain about 7 years ago. Originally the show was myself and Hollie Anthwax, but now it's mostly just me, with the occasional appearance from Hollie and the odd guest mix. I try and make a point of showcasing old and new music, as well as using it to test out new bits by myself and my mates. If you want to listen, I am on every other Sunday from 8-10pm UK time, just before Tim Reaper and Pete DevNull's show.

3. Does pineapple belong on pizza?

No.

Mafs - After Dark Radio 019.5 - Tuesday 25th June 2024

Since Vinyl Junkie and Rachael EC launched their 'Ghetto Dub' imprint 5 years ago they have racked up an incredible 37 releases, held numerous road block events in their native Bristol and have worked alongside a plethora of amazing artists, garnering support from many across the international D&B and Jungle scene.

Flashforward to 2020 and as the label draws ever closer to the landmark 40th release, it felt essential that underground dance veteran & label head honcho Vinyl Junkie finally stepped up with his debut full Drum & Bass E.P 'Tiger Style'

Don't get it twisted, Vinyl's history in the game stretches way back to 1991, main stage performances at the legendary Tribal Gathering, Fantazia, Raindance and countless other residencies with the biggest brands in the rave scene give him the right to claim the status 'Original Junglist', having been involved in helping & witnessing the sound evolve first hand. 

'Tiger Style' is in some ways a metaphor for the 'Ghetto Dub' label with its different stripes and styles, all aggressive and all with volatile components ready to shred up your dancefloor (If you let them out their cage). The E.P kicks of with the title track & picks up where Vinyl Junkie last left us on his Serial Killaz release 'Def Shit', punishing the listener with a powerful roaring bassline and Wu-tang Esque kung fu samples that leave the listener audibly slapped up and bruised. 'Let Off' is a straight-up bubbler which fizzes and pops beautifully over Vinyl's expert percussion whilst 'Wassup Now' takes us in a different direction altogether, one that attempts to completely melt our faces off with superb bassline reminiscent of classic Urban Takeover releases. Finally 'Barefoot Junglist' takes us straight into the heart of the Tigers habitat with tribal drums and an epic Busta Rhymes sample that closes of the E.P in fine style as we dutifully 'simmer down'

This is a monumental E.P for Vinyl Junkie, one that he has poured his heart and soul into and feels like a real coming of age and a massive level up in production values. Watch out for much more from Vinyl Junkie and the Ghetto Dub crew as they prepare to unleash a huge remix album with a crazy list of collaborators, the Tiger is now uncaged, free to roam with an insatiable hunger that cannot be tamed!
