Rising liquid talent Zar https://soundcloud.com/zar_musica lands on Sweet N Sour Invites with a 35 minute mix, blending deep soulful grooves and lush melodies with heavyweight rolling drums.

Zar has carved his lane with releases on Gemini Gemini, Footnotes + V Recordings, and a debut album on Space Cadet that UKF crowned one of 2024’s best. His sound bridges jazz, soul + hip hop sampling with forward-thinking liquid — deep, emotive, and always rolling.

We've invited Zar to Newcastle on October 3rd where you can catch him bringing his signature soulful liquid to the Sweet N Sour dancefloor; alongside Note, Verbz and a stacked support lineup.

Stepping up to the SUNANDBASS Podcast and leading us into autumn is producer and DJ, Deekode. Originally from North West England but raised in the Midlands, Deekode has spent years shaping his style and sound, deeply influenced by SUNANDBASS Recordings.

“I remember being a 15-year-old kid walking home from school rinsing Sun & Bass releases like ‘In The Shade’ by Fracture & Mark System, ‘G-String’ by Code 3, and ‘Rain’ by Skeptical on repeat in my headphones, daydreaming of one day releasing on the label. To be invited to guest mix the Sun & Bass Podcast is an honour & a dream come true, a real full-circle milestone & without a shadow of a doubt the biggest tick on my music career bucket list so far.”

Deekode describes his sound as intricate yet stripped-back sonics blended with deep but energetic beats. This mix takes us on an extended journey through drum & bass, opening with shimmering, melodic liquid before venturing deeper into the dark, minimal territory he’s best known for.

Perfect for our transition into autumn, check out this journey mix and let it soundtrack your season 🎧

Designed for die-hard D&B fans and newcomers alike, tracks span from heavy Metalheadz-style techstep smashers (Vampire Eyes/Amnesia), to beautiful Epic Trance-inspired full vocal tracks (Mercury Skies/Midnight Air/Broken Language), crazy porno Electro-step (American Girls 2004/Take Me home), and hi-energy hyperdisco/liquid funk D&B (Faith In Me/Romantic). 

The album is varied, accessible, interesting, exciting & genre-busting. Its still Drum & Bass, & works in clubs, but is far more than just a collection of disposable, short-lived dub dancefloor tracks. Lots of vocals, wide-ranging styles, pioneering approaches to production, mainstream appeal, but still underground, raw & refreshing. The influence of modern Electro, commercial Dance & Trance is noticeable throughout, but is interpreted in a way that moulds perfectly with the power and energy of Drum & Bass to define revolutionary new directions. The title & visual concept of in:transit reflect John Bs DJ touring lifestyle of the last few years, the music is its soundtrack. Tracks have been selected and refined based on feedback from the clubs all over the world and are John Bs most impressive works to date.
