If you are into Techno Music, you may have already come across one of D.A.V.E. The Drummer’s records. 

Hailing from London’s illegal warehouse party scene that exploded in the 90’s, DJ & producer D.A.V.E. The Drummer started the label Hydraulix in 1998 as an output for his own production ideas. The label intended to bridge the gap between the acid techno of his previous productions and a darker style of techno that D.A.V.E. was experimenting with in the studio.

 Hydraulix made some big waves in the Hard Techno scene throughout the 2000’s and is still going strong with many of the new releases hitting the top spots in the Beatport Charts. Tracks from Hydraulix have found their way into the playlists of some of the worlds top DJs as well as keeping a huge following of underground Techno DJs across the globe.D.A.V.E’s recent music reflects a shift toward a darker stripped back techno sound and the label is still at the forefront of the techno scene winning respect from many DJs and taking on board fresh young artists as well as releasing tracks by seasoned Hydraulix regulars.

Still a hard working DJ and Producer, & currently running his weekly Sunday Session show during lockdown with wife Justine doing visuals D.A.V.E. is responsible for remixes and productions for many top techno labels including: Suara, Dolma, Finder, Techburst, Harthouse, Fine Audio, Noom, Reklusive, Respect, Naked Lunch, Phobiq, Elektrax, Techburst, Cluster, Stay Up Forever, Maximum Minimum, Routemaster, Smitten, Prolekult, Nucleas, Vcious Circle and of course Hydraulix, Apex and Mutate To Survive.

D.A.V.E. The Drummer

#SlamRadio - 443 - D.A.V.E. The Drummer

Lot's of people have asked me for this set.

2003 at WEMF, Canada.

I don't remember too much but it was a very hot sweaty building and I think it had been put together a bit last minute after a previous venue fell through? 

Anyway there was Drum & Bass before me and I honestly wasn't too sure how to follow it. Canadian crowds can be a little hard to predict so I figured I'd start with the Ms Dynamite bootleg I had just picked up from Balafonic Ben and it set the tone for the night.

Then there's the Luke slater horn track mix with that vocoder "hear The Drummer" bit in it, I think people thought that was my signature tune but it wasn't, it was just straight up coincidence, Good though.

Anyway yeah, it's all vinyl of course, there was nothing else at that period of time and it was a lot of fun, 18 years old and counting.

SUNDAY SESSIONS - SE03E08 (no mic)

A mammoth 7:30 hour session at the infamous doctors party on Sunday July 02 2022 in Brasil. We tried to live stream this at the time but we couldn't get decent WIFI going, but it was being recorded!!! Thanks to Tiago! AKA DJ Flip Flop!!
This is mostly Chochi playing, I think I'm somewhere in there for a couple of hours, I don't really know where. No tracklist I'm afraid.

Consumed Music Podcast #71 : D.A.V.E. The Drummer [Ashford , UNITED KINGDOM]

Booty Slave and D.A.V.E. The Drummer get together for the first time in about 10 years. Some might remember their output on Julians 4X4 label from back in the 90's through to 2006.

Two big tunes here, with two very different flavours:

The Beast is a snare drum fuelled bass heavy pummelling techno groove, with glitches, FX and wild synth parts.

Defcon 101 is an analogue synth workout with a single nagging synth line that grows and builds throughout the track leading to an epic drop.

Thanks for your feedback and support.
