Podcast 005 (All Dillinja Mix)

Randall B2B Doc Scott Metalheadz history session special Rinse FM 19.02.2014

Ahead of our next event at FOLD on April 19th, we want to share this set from Mantra (@FOLD celebrating 25 years of Bassbin). She stepped up at 7am and rolled through until 8.30am - the sun was coming through the shutters & the vibes were high!! 
Hope you enjoy :))

Mantra@ FOLD w Blackeye MC, Moose & Double O (April 2022)

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

Dread-Locked

Paperfunk Recordings has always respected — and will continue to respect — the technoid and techno-DnB sound, and we've always strived to contribute as a label to the development of this branch of Drum & Bass.

While techno-DnB emerged back in the early 2000s alongside titanic subgenres like neurofunk and techstep, technoid drum and bass was born under far more intricate and subtle circumstances. The rise of the technoid subgenre is directly tied to a particular group of artists and their unique sonic influence during the years 2007 to 2011.

Its peak — the true triumph of technoid — was in 2008, right at the center of this period. That was the golden age of the subgenre we love, when labels like Offkey, Sinuous, and many others were putting out astonishingly heavy releases with utterly mad and unpredictable sound design.

We’re bringing that tradition back. We’re reviving the raw power and chaos of technoid and techno-DnB — and with great pride, we present to you our new compilation: TECHNOID: GREATEST COMEBACK VOL. 1

This series will feature works by artists who embody the very essence of why these subgenres continue to captivate us. The scent of kerosene, automatic hydraulics, power machines, mechanical undertones, and metal slams in place of drums — this is what awaits you when you press play on TECHNOID: GREATEST COMEBACK VOL. 1.
