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.

Live OB At Ericsson Athlone - Interviews With Employees

Ann Margret was a film and music star of the 60s, 70s and 80s, dubbed the 'female Elvis'. She had a short-lived and relatively unsuccessful stab at Disco from 79-81, most famously recording the minor hit Love Rush in 79. I picked this up a few years back and always had a soft spot for it... hope I did it justice
