In this month's show on Aaja Music, Blu has curated a stomping rollers mix with pace and drive (0:00 - 48:00), and I had a great time playing some darker techy D&B (48:00 - 1:50:00) before chilling out with a new 140 breakbeat tune.

Let us know which were your favourite parts, and if you need any IDs.

DLR – Phase Plant Bass Patch Pack from Labsamples

He’s back with a smasher.. obviously.. and this time he’s got over one hundred sick bass patches for our latest Kilohearts Phase Plant Bass Patch Pack!!

These patches are specifically designed for the Phase Plant synth by Kilohearts, a soft synth that allows you to create and manipulate sounds using a modular approach. It’s a super powerful tool for sound design, music production and much more, running with a huge range of oscillators, filters, effects, and modulation options, all the stuff we like here at Labsamples!

With this bass patch pack, you’ll have everything you need to roll out killer bass sounds that will take your music to the next level no matter your genre.

As always, DLR’s gone all out on the details, providing not only wicked bass patches but also the potential to manipulate them easily via modulation madness for the ultimate control over your low end!

Tweaked and dialed controls by the main man DLR is always a good thing..!

No matter if you’re looking for deep rumbling subs, gritty mids, or stabby bass, DLR has designed each patch carefully to ensure weight and unique bass at every step! 

Get ready to load up your Phase Plant and unleash a world of bass on your productions!!

While the long-awaited summer is finally slowly starting to show itself, we got a killer mix for you all to alleviate the pain of the long wait. For the next Rolling Selectors we got none other than Auris!

This Amsterdam based, jazz influenced Drum and Bass producer has shown his colours many times in the Drum and Bass scene. Playing at well-known events like High Tea and Liquicity. Although his awesome productions are more on the side of liquid Drum and Bass, he was not afraid to step things up for an OG Rolling in the Deep mix!

We strongly encourage you to check out the silky, relaxing music made by this talented producer. But for now, enjoy this Rolling Selectors #013 hosted by Auris!

Also, keep a look out for future announcements. I don't want to spoil too much, but a little birdie told me that the next RITD edition is going to be the most massive one yet.
