This October sees the continuation of the After Party series on Liquid V, as we move into the third full length edition. Twenty tracks of liquid bliss individually compiled by Donovan 'Bad Boy' Smith, plus a continuous DJ mix from the man himself to tie it all together.

As with the previous two After Party complications, the tracks are fully focused on the afterglow, and able take you down to the deepest depths of Drum & Bass. After Party features the likes of Sl8r, Inja, Sherona Knight, Acuna, Beat Merchants and Illmatika, as well as some fresh talent head-hunted by Donovan 'Bad Boy' Smith for this project.

Radio DJ, mix master extraordinaire, mentor and one of the unsung heroes from the early days of drum and bass, Donavan ‘Bad Boy’ Smith’s – one of the original proponents of Britain’s Soul, House and Rare Groove scene – contribution to the UK’s underground music scene cannot be understated. Donovan’s love for deep and soulful Drum n Bass is as strong as ever, with this Various Artists project on Bryan Gee and Jumpin’ Jack Frost’s seminal label, Liquid V, epitomising this.

Commix - How You Gonna Feel (feat  Steve Spacek)

DRS’s Space Cadet take its third orbit round the known universe, crash-landing once again in Planet Manchester. Big V’s still flying from the rocket roof window, sat-nav bunned eternally, we run on pure fumes, instincts and emotions. Unconditionally…

This time we have a new pilot and whole new team of navigators: Evabee, TMNMS, Alto Sounds. New names to some, but not for much longer. If you’ve heard any of LSB and DRS’s sets in the last year, you’ll already know what they’re capable of. 

One song, three versions. ‘Unconditional’ is presented in three distinct ways by Manny’s leading cosmic cosmonauts. A stirring breakdown of what love can be when it’s honest and real, ‘Unconditional’ is written, sung and lead from the front by Evabee. Produced by two of her closest co-pilots Alto Sounds and TMNMS, it follows a select series of Evabee explorations both solo and as part of the collective A Broken Camarilla. Well known on the city’s live community, you might recognise her yearning, dreamy realness from collaborations with Tommy Tickle, Inka’s ‘Waveydon Ballads’ or her own self-released soul-massaging ‘Full Circle’ earlier this year. ‘Unconditional’ is her full official debut. 

The first incarnation is the DNB Remix. Beats crafted by Alto Sounds and TMNMS, Eva’s spacious delivery is given all the room it needs to hit home. Disarming, faraway, hopeful, universal, her emotional delivery brings you close in, heightened by DRS’s bars mid-way. Pure rolling food for the soul. 

It’s followed by the Hip-Hop Remix. Taking off where Space Cadet left us with DRS’s critically acclaimed guerrilla-dropped From The Deep album last January, once again Alto Sounds and TMNMS’s beats hit with a warm, authentic heat. Soft keys, slouching beats, bags of space for the delicately woven vocal lines from Evabee and DRS, it captures of the essence and soul of the city each of the creative individuals involved call home. 

The last significant bit comes courtesy of LSB. Mentored and deeply inspired by Marcus Intalex, a Space Cadet lieutenant since time and one of Delroy’s closest creative partners, Luke Beavon adds his touch to the original with a star-gazing remix that’s already turned heads across the drum & bass spectrum. Continuing the theme and vibes of their recent album ‘The Blue Hour’, the duo’s rolling sense of restraint and subtleties are felt deep in every detail. Recently captured on video at drum & bass spiritual HQ Sun And Bass, where Evabee performed the song live, it’s a classic dubplate story with many, many chapters left to be written…

This is what Space Cadet is all about. A discipline that runs deep in the code; celebrating the music, giving it time and space to breathe and making sure the coordinates are always set for the future generation and giving new talent their own rocket packs to fly freely. DRS’s years of grafting, connecting and rallying up the Northern troops can be seen and felt in the pulse of Manchester from everyone who’s graduated from Estate Recordings to the stratospheric prominence of Children Of Zeus. Space Cadet is the latest embodiment of Delroy’s dedication. And they’re only just warming up. 

Three releases and one year deep. Rocket roof open, V’s locked and loaded, it’s time to fly once again…
