If you're names not Conrad then please put the mic down

I can't actually listen to this with that ridiculous banter... such a shame... think I'll just reproduce the mix for myself without the half-arsed mc

Marcus Intalex & Drs - Live @ EOC Arena(Moondance) 16 - 06 - 07

Essence of Chi was birthed in South London in February 2004 and swiftly emerged as one of the most rapidly expanding Drum & Bass promotions of the early 2000s. Renowned for throwing unforgettable parties that ensnared all facets of drum and bass, from the depths of deep grooves to the explosive energy of the dance floor, EOC events are famed for their electric atmosphere, meticulous attention to detail in sound, lighting and space, and of course a roster of exceptional artists, harmoniously blended together to achieve the perfect equilibrium.

From humble origins at Brixton's Plan B, EOC gradually evolved into roadblocked birthday soirées at Scala and Hidden, whilst regular events at the then-infamous Herbal in Shoreditch witnessed around-the-block queues. Gramaphone became the next stomping ground from 2010 until its eventual closure in 2011.

EOC’s sonic wings continued to spread: hosting tour parties in locations across the UK, such as Leeds, Oxford, Brighton, Guildford, and Portsmouth & arenas at some of London's most prestigious drum and bass events, including Renegade Hardware v Valve during Carnival 2006, The Baby Box and Bar at the iconic Ministry of Sound for their in-house d&b nights, Fuse and Switch. EOC even had the privilege of commanding an entire weekend at Innovation in the Sun two years on the trot, alongside Rotation. Not forgetting their legendary legacy at Moondance, the EOC area held a regular residency for an unparalleled ten years running. This lead to being twice nominated twice for the coveted title of Best Small Club Night at the Drum n Bass Awards, in both 2008 and 2009.

Fast forward to 2017, when Essence of Chi made an explosive comeback, taking on the mighty task of leading the electrifying Drum n Bass stage at Moondance Festival, while also returning triumphantly to Scala for a curated extravaganza on the hallowed ground of New Year’s Eve. And thus began a wave of "Middle Skool" events, paying homage to the Golden Era of 1999-2009 in conjunction with scene stalwart, DJ Ascension, captivating the hearts and souls of ravers at North London's Work Bar & Club 512.

With the dawn of 2024 on the horizon, EOC sets its sights on a momentous 20th Anniversary celebration. Plans are underway for a multi-venue jubilee, crafted in collaboration with their longtime allies and ethical clothing sponsors, THTC. Coincidentally, THTC themselves are celebrating an impressive 25 years in the industry, making this a harmonious convergence of musical milestones.
