Due to popular demand, we've pulled this one out of the archives... 

Back in 2010, Gilles Peterson recorded a special Brownswood Basement show focusing on the evolution of drum & bass through the 90s and into the 00s. It was by no means a comprehensive history of the genre, but it did represent an excellent snapshot of the tunes that struck a chord with Gilles back then. 100% vinyl (and acetates), Gilles spent the best part of a day rummaging through hundreds of records and picked out around 40 of his favourite tracks from the likes of Alex Reece, Peshay, Goldie, Drumagick, Roni Size and Photek… then @alex-patchwork got deep in the mix. Here then, is the first hour-long mix that made up that show - no links, jingles or drops - just the music. We hope you enjoy it.

Adriano, took his first steps as a DJ in late 2003, immediately after discovering the world of free parties.
From that moment the music becomes its only source of energy, it feeds by participating and playing in numerous parties & teknival.  Leading THE BEAT PUSHERS CREW since 2008.
Moving from electro to breakbeat without forgetting bassmusic & glitchop, Adrian explores the world of electronic music at 360°, without stupid prejudices or unnecessary mental closures, this does nothing but further fuel his musical baggage.
Since 2012 is a part of Lounge Squatt with which he brought quality events to his hometown, Torino  In the last 10 years he has proved to be one of the most influential promoters in the city.
To date, the favorite sounds in his performances are certainly a mixed mix of Techno / Deep / House / Minimal / Downtempo, in short, impossible to define a single genre of music his sets, consider it a small journey into electronic music!
Adrian represents the true definition of the word DJ digital vinyl experimentation...
Now is proud to be the art direct and resident Dj with SUONO at Notorius Club in Turin.
