The early 2000s were a wonderfully creative time with lots of cross pollination between different musical styles, many genres we know so well today were formulating their DNA, unaware for what was to come. One such genre Grime was evolving it’s sound and this 2 hour mix revisits those early foundation days and the beats that were being made. Music from Youngstarr, Plastician, Black Ops, Hindzy D, DJ Charmzy, Slimzos, Geeneus and more, as well as some lesser known white labels.

Mix downloadable.

Chintu is a Hertfordshire-based DJ/Curator. His project, Chintutang, started as a local hot sauce brand/art project for his homies during lockdown which later developed into a monthly linkup for 160 artists/DJs in London; forming a space for avid followers of the sound to gather around some decks, share music and stay practised over the summer.

He has since locked in a monthly residency with Brixton Radio which is the current home for the Chintutang project throughout the colder months; showcasing the city's talent, with a firm focus on forward thinking music and the fundamental eras that allowed them to exist.

“Hey hey people, for this mix I wanted to get out of my comfort zone of 160 music and refresh my palette a bit, so here's a collection of murky syncopated rhythms at around the 140 mark, that I’ve collected recently to match the winter climate. Expect a rolling 3 deck mix moving through 2-Step, proto-dubstep, leftfield bass, Techno, Breaks and Electro”

Loose Lips Mix Series - 488 - Jerome Hill b2b Warlock (@ FOAD x LL - Ldn, April '24)

An artist with minimal online presence, Commodo is one of an increasingly rare few who make waves through the strength of their music alone. He builds bass-focused beats with soul and substance that never perpetuate a formula. Together with Gantz he just released a monster record on our ITX series. Enjoy!

Absolute insanity on the NA & Thought Society sound system. Recorded on the final night of our 10 year anniversary weekender with ILIAN TAPE and FLUXIONS, May 17th, 2025.
