BIG UP NEWY BASS CREW EACH AND EVERY TIME

Introducing Blondy.

Blondy, a force to be reckoned with in the DJ scene, hails from South Wales in the UK - the alias Blondy came about by combining both a reminder of her past before music and moving forward with creating a brand using the name it finally stuck, after many peers knowing her by the nickname 'Blondy', solidifying her commitment to being the best version of herself carrying her brand wherever she goes.

Blondy's journey began when she secured a coveted spot in the Made in Roath, an artist-run organisation focused on contemporary art practice in Cardiff's east. This opportunity led her to immerse herself in a radio/soundscaping course, culminating in her hosting a remarkable 24-hour radio show on Solstice Day 2021 and unveiling her first recorded guest mix.

Fuelled by her passion for connecting with like-minded artists, Blondy found a perfect fit within the roster of Concrete Junglists—a Cardiff-based global streetwear brand renowned for its thrilling jungle and drum and bass events across the UK. Concrete Junglists, an imprint with a rich history and a reputation for nurturing underground talent, welcomed her into their family with open arms.

Blondy's breakthrough sets in South Wales and the South West earned her well-deserved recognition and a strong online support network. Advocating for chronic illnesses and hidden disabilities, an aspect close to her heart, she fearlessly continues to flourish and create captivating content, even during times of recovery from flare-ups. Her determination knows no bounds—Blondy refuses to let anything stand in the way of pursuing her dreams.

Blondy's DJ career is adorned with an impressive array of credentials, featuring support for artists such as Mantra, LTJ Bukem, Hollie-May, Bou, Fixate, Distrupta, DJ Hybrid, Mrs Magoo, [IVY], Chickaboo, Aries, Coco Bryce, Kara, K Motionz, Upgrade, and a host of other incredible talents. She has also had the honour of playing for renowned events and labels in the scene, including Born on Road, Full Spectrum, Just be, Heft, 1 More Thing, Rumble in the Jungle, NRG, Noise makers, Shwsh, Linked, and more.

In 2022, Blondy secured her first festival booking, a spot at Big Love Festival during the Concrete Junglists takeover—an electrifying moment in her career. Her talent and skill shone bright, capturing the attention of music enthusiasts and industry insiders alike.

The following year, Blondy took center stage at Balter Festival 2023, captivating a crowd of 3,500 in Chepstow. This incredible feat solidified her position as a force to be reckoned with, and her dedication to her craft earned her the respect and recognition she truly deserved.

Guided by the support of Concrete Junglists members, Blondy's journey has been a remarkable one. Rising from humble beginnings, she now stands proudly as part of the new generation of DJs shaping South Wales' vibrant underground culture. Few newcomers have achieved what she has, especially while navigating the challenges of physical health demands.

Blondy's guest mix is a thrilling journey through the diverse sub-genres of drum and bass that initially sparked her passion for DJing. From the lively and energetic jump-up, which she hasn't played in a while, to the mesmerising drums and amens of ragga dnb—her signature style—this mix encompasses the essence of her musical evolution.

While Blondy has refined her focus on jungle and ragga dnb, this mix pays homage to her roots and showcases her versatility. Although she no longer regularly plays jump-up, the inclusion of tunes crafted by her friends and fellow producers from Wales adds a personal touch, making it a heartfelt tribute to her community.

This extraordinary mix demonstrates Blondy's prowess in navigating various sub-genres of drum and bass with ease. Prepare to be taken on a sonic adventure that will leave you captivated and craving more from this talented DJ.

The Formation VA LP 'Album Mix' - Strobe (In-Reach Records)

A metal head at heart, @djnickyb-uk finds her calm in heavy drums, snares & low frequencies. Professional dancer turned DJ - music and performance has been a significant part of Nicky B’s life for many years. Inspired by artists such as Euphonique, Mrs Magoo and Hybrid, she took up the art of DJing in 2018 alongside DJ-MD, performing as part of a duo ‘Reason2B’, and eventually forging her own solo career as Nicky B.

Nicky B has since appeared on well known radio stations such as Life FM, UK Raw, Code Red and performed at the Boiler Room festival, Paradise Gardens and WillFest Crystal Palace amongst many other events and festivals throughout the UK. Her high energy and raw jungle sound has led to her working with some of the most respected brands in the scene, including EQ50, who Nicky debuted for in their mix series in September 2022.

The future brings some of Nicky’s biggest event bookings to date, and honing her production skills, working on her first solo EP - infusing her love for raw jungle, heavy breaks and low frequencies.

RSHMR + BAGOT Guest Mix - Subtle Radio - 15/11/2023

In at number 6 in our series is the one and only Ana Crusis! 

DJ, songwriter and vocalist from Jersey she has being making a massive impact on the scene with her heavy DJ sets, mixes and events that she has put on in Jersey ( Awaken The Empress ) which featured a full female line up! 

Also a resident of Yamatai Records, Phase Records, The Midnight Massacre, CRE8 DnB, Flair Entertainment!

Ana likes to get lost in the Deep, Dark underground realms of sounds.

Although Ana’s taste in music is heavily spread out across genres, when mixing on the decks you can find her focusing on everything Dark, Techy and Heavy. She likes to push boundaries and break barriers of what would be considered “acceptable”. 

This can be shown in some of her outerworldly deep twisted concoctions blending experimental wonky sounds and some of her sinister artwork covers. In her latest promo mix she enjoyed introducing more BPM changes throughout her mix.

You can expect a rollercoaster of blends, double drops & more weird and wonderful mixing in this banger of a Neuro mix. 

follow her facebook and show support

Thank you Ana for getting involved, Big ups! :)
