EXCLUSIVE MIX: SpectraSoul - The Retrospective Mix

Long time friends of the SUNANDBASS family, Kred & Handy (aka Matt Elms and Andy Easton) have rolled out this month’s Podcast.

They’re an extended part of the family, having first attended SUNANDBASS in 2006. In 2008 they got to show people their cards musically, playing the now highly coveted opening night slot at La Posta – and it was a night to remember, with people dancing on the pool tables and slapping the walls! Since then, they’ve been back in the mix at SUNANDBASS every year. 

Back in London, they help to run one of London’s finest independent Drum & Bass nights, Launch, whilst also finding time to host a weekly radio show on Origin FM.

This Podcast showcases the classic Handy & Kred style, a blend of old and new, smooth and abrassive - mixing classics with new favourites, and with the odd dub thrown in for good measure. Recorded live, they suggest you serve with a chilled Ichnusa and enjoy!

1.	Vicious Circle – Emma’s Dilemma

SUNANDBASS Podcast #35 - Handy & Kred

Put a hard hat on because this mix is set you hit you over the head. Hard. Yes, New Zealand's own Cern has stepped up to deliver today’s mix of the day and needless to say its an absolute stormer.

Mixed ahead of a much anticipated return to London’s Fire April 17th where he’ll take to the decks alongside UK D&B legends Bad Company, Artificial Intelligence, Storm and Zero T, Cern’s selections have been the perfect antidote for our post bank holiday blues.

Jam packed with sonic weapons to deliver knockout punches with no nonsense snare drum hits underpinned by those low frequencies which slip you thudding jabs to the chest, this is a mix seriously worthy of your attention. Check it out now.

SUNANDBASS Podcast #37 is upon us, and joining us for this months instalment is none other than Metalheadz’ @Jubei-1. 

Known for rolling it out, whether on the ones and twos or in his productions, he has spliced together some of his favourite tracks, new and old for this mix. Expertly blending smooth, tough, musical and hard, he shows why he is often thought of as one of the best DJs on the scene, able to put together a wide variety of tracks whilst still maintaining a common theme throughout.

With a new EP for Headz just over the horizon, we thought now would be a good time for him to show us what he’s about, and he’s done that in spades here once again. Tune in, zone out and check Jubei.

Cranium Session S.1 - 014 - Arkaik Guestmix

Sam Binga delivers his mix for THUMP. In September 2015, Critical Music presented his debut long player ‘Wasted Days’. An album of pure street-felt expressionism drawing influence from global multi cultures, his cascading eclecticism runs throughout making for a raw, uncompromising journey true to the Sam Binga sound with a unique clash of jungle, grime, footwork, juke and drum and bass that shows a deep understanding of the whole dance music spectrum, while never losing sight of the vital party vibes.

THUMP // Sam Binga // Guest Mix

I will definitely never forget my Sun and Bass debut. What an amazing night. We had so much fun playing this set, big shout out to everybody that was there raving with us! Apologies to anybody who got hit in the face by Flipper.

Big thanks to A Sides for inviting us to play at his night, and thanks to all the Sun and Bass team for organising such an incredible festival. I'm already excited for next year.

Flipper will return.
