JUICE Drum and Bass began in Bend, Oregon in 2005, as a monthly event curated by Chemynne Perlingieri, motivated by the desire to bring drum and bass to the region. After continuously pushing the night and its brand spanning now 18 years, JUICE has grown to international recognition and is the longest running drum n bass night in Oregon. Moving north, JUICE continued on in Portland after 2010, hosting local, regional, and international producers focused on the deep soulful sounds of drum and bass.

The night ran Saturdays for years; then Thursdays bi-monthly 2013-18. JUICE was then monthly at The Whiskey Bar downtown until Feb of 2020, when the pandemic shut the doors of all venues. Moving their feature nights to Twitch during the pandemic, JUICE currently continues to promote the genre both through weekly InBetween Sessions on twitch.tv/juicedrumandbass (every Tues/Thurs/Sun 7-11pm) and special last-Friday-of-the-month features. Quarterly in-person shows can be found in Portland at Holocene for the last three years, which are also streamed live from the club.

Growing the brand of JUICE as a staple in the Pacific Northwest music scene, JUICE has hosted DnB’s finest out to Oregon—including DJ Marky, Goldie, LTJ Bukem, Dub Phizix & Strategy, Drumsound & Bassline Smith/World of Drum and Bass, Ray Keith, Nookie, Bladerunner, Total Science, Lenzman, Big bUd, Kubiks & Lomax, ASC, Method One, Stunna, Random Movement, Artificial Intelligence, Dave Owen, T.R.A.C., MC Fava, Atlantic Connection, Utah Jazz, dBridge, OmUnit, Technimatic, Zero T, Spectrasoul, LSB & DRS, Digital, Commix, Redeyes, Command Strange, Emma G & MC Tali, Marcus Visionary, Mizeyesis, KJ Sawka, Winslow, Reid Speed, BCee...the list goes on. The sound and culture of JUICE continues to be represented through livestreams on Twitch, YouTube, JUICE merchandise, and podcasts by Chemynne and JUICE residents at: soundcloud.com/juicedrumandbass.

Alongside running a design & branding business of 22 years (Mulch Design, now retired), Chemynne’s love-of-DnB-travels promoting JUICE have spanned across the coasts and the UK. While DJing has never been her directive, her mixes have been featured on local and European radio, DnBRadioBrazil, Bassdrive.com, 916Junglist Radio, RenegadeRadio.co.uk, and on Arrested Development’s online radio show Musical Safari, (don't mention logging near 2200 hours streamed) with her husband 'tbone' and guests on Twitch.

Great support and backbone to JUICE events comes from an amazing team; combined with some of the area’s finest: residents Definition Positive (DnB Radio PDX/Salem), Revival (Soul Deep Recs/Fokuz/PDX), Praderz (Deep Space Recs/UK/PDX), Subfugitive (PDX/VA), Axiom (PDX) and MC Questionmark (PDX/LA/UK). JUICE’s fantastic photographer Van Adam Davis, lighting specialist Brett McConnell, and sound & equipment guru Mike McGillivray round out this diverse and talented crew.

Sprouting from JUICE, BassRoutes Agency, LLC launched in late 2018 emerging from a devotion to the music and a drive to support the artists on a deeper level. BassRoutes’ mission is to provide exceptional agency service to comprehensively meet artist’s tour and promotional needs. Currently representing BCee (UK), Command Strange (RU/UK), Redeyes (FR), Winslow (MO), Seba (Sweden), LO! (Chicago), Ray Keith (UK), and Nookie (UK), BassRoutes grows gently and is dedicated full-time to representing drum and bass culture.

Immeasurable hours go into this night running IRL shows & weekly streams, creating graphics for our merch & store, events, and agency. The mission of keeping the JUICE brand rolling onward—continues. Sharing this amazing style of deep soulful drum and bass through live and online forums drives a tireless effort to keep the music relevant. Each session is a unique experience best shared together. JUICE is proud and humbled to be a cornerstone in Oregon’s diverse electronic music scene for near 19 years. Thanks to the crew, sponsors, local & twitch communities, and the international DnB scene which continue to support this genre and lifestyle here in the Pacific Northwest—and worldwide.

Mostly into playing Jungle or Drum & Bass, occasionally some other styles if it’s got a broken beat + Bass.

PHREAK RECORDINGS: Soundtracking the Underground's Next Mutation
By Phlipsyde

In a digital landscape ruled by algorithms and aesthetic minimalism, Phreak Recordings is a beautifully chaotic outlier. The label doesn’t play to the gallery and couldn’t care less about genre loyalty. What it does offer is far more vital: an uncompromising space for sound system futurism, breakbeat nostalgia, and audio experimentation that hits like a pirate radio transmission from a parallel future—raw, unpredictable, and resolutely unfiltered. This isn’t a label chasing charts. It’s not here for shallow virality. Phreak exists for one reason: to give voice to the phreaks, the outsiders, the innovators hiding in plain sight.

Founded as a response to the creative stasis in contemporary electronic music, Phreak Recordings emerged with a singular purpose—to amplify the strange, the raw, and the sonically fearless. And it hasn’t looked back since.
Phreak Recordings is powered by a decentralized network of producers, streamers, DJs, and noise scientists who span cities and scenes across the globe. Each release feels like a cultural transmission from another outpost of the underground. Some of the label’s artists are veterans of the scene, others are total unknowns—but they all share a commitment to sound as resistance. To subverting expectations. To using music as a tool for tension, release, and reimagining reality. Ask anyone in the Phreak circle and they’ll tell you: this isn’t about fitting in. It’s about blowing open new portals.

The label’s signature sound is hard to define—and that’s by design. One release might channel dark, hybrid-style Drum & Bass, while the next pulses with powerful progressive emotions, dirty electro beats, or euphoric vocals that send chills down your spine. It’s unpredictable, often abrasive, always unique. This is music for sound system obsessives, warehouse dwellers, and headphone hermits alike. It’s not designed to go viral — it’s built to last.

At a time when so much of electronic music is either chasing the past or pandering to platforms, Phreak Recordings is doing something rare: creating space. Space for new sounds, new voices, and new ideas. Whether you're a seasoned raver, a bedroom producer, or just someone who still believes music can change your state of mind, Phreak Recordings invites you to tune in, drop out, and go deep.

If you're tired of the same sounds. If you're searching for the spaces between. If you believe that music still has the power to challenge, to awaken, and to rewire—then welcome.

To Phreak Recordings.

All you have to do is listen.
