This is probably my most favorite gig to date, played at the Legendary Dachstock in Berne, Switzerland.  They have overhead mics in the crowd so the recording makes you feel like you're there and the whole place is covered in Graffiti.  First time playing with MC 2Shy from Hardware.

The start of December sees SUNANDBASS Podcast #43 dropping – and it’s time to get cold. 

Quadrant & Iris have very kindly graced us with a mix of epic proportions, showing us exactly what to expect when they step up to the decks.

Featuring a raft of their own productions, including some from their 2015 ‘206’ LP on Commercial Suicide, the mix also neatly ties together a wide range of flavours from many of drum and bass’ important players – but also some fresher names, proving they like to keep their ears to the ground for hot new tracks and talent. 

Enjoy the mix, it’s going to warm up the place!

Stepping up for the 6th instalment of our Free From Sleep podcast are V Recordings affiliates Paul T & Edward Oberon. Bringing their sophisticated blend of soulful yet dirty Drum & Bass, the duo provide a refreshing mix of melodic breaks, pace-driven drums and classic Jungle soundscapes.

Showcasing some of their favourite tunes of the moment alongside a host of exclusives as they near the completion of their debut album. This is surely not one to be missed and we leave you to enjoy with some word from the artists themselves:

“Some of us are dealing with the realities of partial lockdown, social distancing, rioting, and protesting... This is the world right now for lots of us, if not all of us. Let the music play loudly. Listen to this and remember why we love drum and bass music, why we love the dance and why we have the scene we have. This is for and about every one of us and for the well-being of arts and music in general - we all contribute to the things we love. Black Lives Matter and be ready to smash any system which oppresses humanity and stands in the way of equal rights. Together we soldier through to the future stomping racism, bigotry and financial oppression with every step we take. Educate those around you, Fight the good fight, Stay safe and Enjoy.”

Hailing from Philadelphia, PA, the home of many legendary music heavyweights, Mason formerly Myster Mason is as intense as anyone could be. This strength of character and no nonsense approach to life is the fuel to Mason’s powerful production style. Since the late 90’s Mason has been an integral part of the Philadelphia music scene and a pioneer in the expansion and movement of American Drum & Bass. Mason exploded into the international arena in 2003 with his signing of ‘Ruff, Rugged and Raw ft. Armanni Reign’ to Dylan’s Freak Recordings. From there, the offers and tunes just kept coming. With releases on Hardware, Barcode, Intasound, East Side, Penetration and many more, Mason was now a household name in the Drum & Bass community. 

Mason’s music has led him to play most of the major parties and festivals in the world including Starscape, Whistle, Therapy Sessions (UK), the infamous Dachstock in Berne, Switzeland and legendary Herbal in London. He has been labeled the “mixtape king” by his partner Dstar. His focus and attention to detail he displays in his mixes have built up a cult like following. There’s been a countless number of times he has heard from fans that someone stole their mix tape or CD. His original production has been played by the likes of Andy C, Goldie, Dieselboy, Klute, Bailey, Dylan, Evol Intent and countless others. He has also been featured on the cover and inside of many magazines including Rinse, URB, Knowledge, XLR8R, ATM and Mixmag. 

Mason, alongside Dstar, runs two record labels including the D&B staple Gasm Recordings and their new bass music influenced label, P5 Records. Fans of drum & bass and even bass music in general can be assured that Mason has everything it takes to be one of the most exciting acts in dance music today. Years of experience in crafting and honing his dj and production skills and knowing how to read a crowd have led Mason to the forefront of the music scene.
