Room shaker!! What a tune!!! Beats are sooooo fresh!!!!

This latest, slightly longer-than-normal offering from Transference Recordings comes in the form of six deep, innovative tracks from Future Engineers and includes the special sounds of Electrosoul System and Cutworks on remix duties. 

‘Scratch in the Surface’ is a sweet melancholic roller with a retrospective vibe and heavy bass, infused with dolby style surround fx – front, back, and side to side. Another one for the fans of deeper drum and bass seeking something that cuts through.  

‘Shape or Form’ steps things up a level with its ethereal sci-fi synths and atmospherics, stomping beats and simple bass hook, making this one for the dance floor.  The breakdown brings into focus a futuristic scratching vibe that sets up a superb drop for maximal impact.

Russian producers ‘Cutworks’ have taken the samples from the track ‘Through the Motions’ originating from the first Transference EP and have produced a stunning remix and label highlight. In retaining the beautiful piano keys, strings, and mid-bass sounds from the original, but introducing old school, sparkling beats and wobbling cyber bass, this track is so at odds with itself that it smacks of brilliant originality. Another deep, musical track that also works the dance floor. 

Electrosoul System’s remix of ‘Side-Effects’ is a smooth, jamming organ roller with a magical twist of next-level euro trance synths that arise in the midst of proceedings to give it a welcome injection of something a little bit abstract and different. Electrosoul System consistently delivers top quality D&B and this track is no exception to that rule.

The title track ‘Exhale’ gradually draws together a combination of emotive, cinematic soundscapes, intricate drum programming, and deep technological bass, to take the more thoughtful fans of drum and bass on an epic musical journey. 

Finally, the EP is capped off with panache, in the form of the future-visionary drum funk stomper ‘Dystopia’. As the name suggests, this is no idyllic set filler… expect this track to take you somewhere you haven’t been before!

Ant TC1 presents the Dispatch Recordings show (ft. Jaybee) - Kool FM, 10.07.2025

I've been meaning to look back at this mix for some time, ever since I mixed and earlier version live on radio, so here it is, 26 track's selected from the iconic 'Shelflife' series. 

This was not an easy mix to compile, with over 100 tracks to choose from it took me a bit of time to finally come up with the final track selection (room to do a PT2). So I hope you enjoy the mix and that I have given this phenomenal producer and series the love and respect it deserves. 

Please feel free to repost and share, as always it would be much appreciated.

Enjoy the mix :-)

As we get ready for our return to Sardinia this week, we’re proud to present this month’s SUNANDBASS podcast from Blindside, featuring a special Futures Past mix.

This selection is a nod to the legendary mixes from Fabio for Muzik MasterS, Doc Scott and LTJ Bukem for Mixmag, all of which had a huge influence on Dan’s journey. From starting Breakthru events, to working on Soul:r and now Space Cadet, we’re thrilled to welcome Blindside back to the Podcast.

“This is a mix of some of my favourite tracks from the mid-90s. Its working title was Future’s Past, partly because, even though these tracks are 30 years old, they still sound light years ahead, conveying emotion with an energy that only drum & bass can.”

Music from the likes on Peshay, Photek, Intense, Wax Doctor and across corners stones like Metalheadz, GLR, Creative Source and Prototype.

Go check it out and get in the mood for #SAB25 🌞🎶

Future Engineers have been producing drum & bass since 1996, with releases on labels such as LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking Records, Blame’s 720 Degrees, Renegade, Partisan, and Vibez.

Transference was launched by Lee in 2010, kicking off with the Future Engineers ‘Ellipse’ EP. The label was established for Lee’s solo material as Future Engineers, but evolved to include various other projects with the likes of Electrosoul System, Sunchase, Operon, Cutworks, Radicall, Dauntless and Fuj.
