A Half-Time dubbed out track blessed with The Green Man's mad-scientist approach and Digital's dub head. Heavy tribal beats and bass lead to the breakdown consisting of a 4am Detroit techno style lead.

Charla Green ensures the continuation of Sheffield's long-lasting Bass saga in fervent, viby riddim style! This gifted DJ/Producer and singer is known for her flexible DJ sets, ranging from 140bpm Bass music or Dubstep to a broad picture of Jungle/Drum & Bass. Her sets have been heard at renowned venues from Fabric to Boomtown and Lakota. Charla is also a resident DJ at Wub Club and UK jungle.
Charla grew up regularly attending Iration Steppas' club nights at Sub Dub, Leeds. No wonder her Drum & Bass productions majestically weave in riddim textures and samples that ring bells to all lovers of dubby sounds. Her proper take on all things Jungle and Dub aroused Digital's attention in 2020 on the EQ50 mentorship program - the collective of women working towards fairer representation within Drum & Bass (www.eq50.co.uk).
Charla ties up a closely-knit yet highly eclectic pack of tunes, showing her love for making music, deep knowledge of, and trust in bass-led sound system culture! Charla draws on classic sounds and refreshing vibes newly set within her individual riddim and breaks matrix.
Enter her EP through JUST CAN'T, where crisp rolls meet heavy bass and cleverly sought out sampling, defying the blatant vox workouts we've heard too many times. This one delivers a modern and sweetly light yet charged Jungle stepper. ALL THIS LOVE is what sounds like a long-sought '94 classic itself: exploring a picturesque, dynamic and soulful vibe that would serve as many a set's dead cool intro. DEAD bows to FUNCTION's rich heritage in focused and effective rolling tracks, plus some charming humour and fun attitude. Closing in - RIDDIM BIZNESS sees another collaboration of Charla with Digital himself. A finale, a break-ridden, nicely fluent track - making us all feel her sweet touch!

SYDP009: Smasha

@asha-pearson-566104635

Born and bred in Brighton, Smasha was raised on drum and bass by her parents listening to labels such as Ram Records and Metalheadz on the way to school. She quickly got a taste for the heavy drums and murky basslines. 

Smasha is a resident raver/DJ at the famous Volks Nightclub in Brighton. With it's reputation as hosting some of the best underground dnb events in the country, it was only a matter of time until Smasha became a regular patron to the mighty Volks. Being a part of such a tight knit and passionate sub-culture is a constant source of sanctuary and it was this sense of community that encouraged her to hone her own craft. 

During the lockdown and whilst living with her DJ/Producer partner, she was able to spend some more time on this love and pick up the headphones. Since then she spends many hours a week buying, collecting, mixing new and older tunes. 

A couple of years on and she’s played in some of her favourite local venues including The Volks Nightclub and Concorde 2 for the likes of Delirium Sessions, Overview Music, Sultry Sounds, Critical Music & Multi Function. Smasha also had a slot on her local pirate radio, Code South. 
 
Expect to hear an hour of minimal, tech, jungle and heavy rolling vibes on this mix.

This one's a throwback to our roots - somewhere around 2019.
Raw, unfiltered, and we always thought it needed an MC. Any takers? 🎙️

This is the third track of seven. Hope you dig it.
