@akul_music couldn't be happier have our brother from down under back on ec2a! This time he treats us to a dubby roots inspired joint with his signature 2-step vibe. If you like the sounds of this, just waut till to you hear his brand new dubplate dropping at the end of the month alongside the Ghoulish dubplate.

The latest in my self-release UK Garage series, two soulful 2-step Garage tracks

Love In The Endz' founders team up for a nostalgic, collaborative EP exploring the sounds that have shaped not only them as individuals but the label as a whole. The project moves through sentimental percussion and meaningful melodies, offering a deeply personal journey. It serves as both a tribute to their roots and a forward-looking statement on the evolution of their sound and community.

Bussin' Garage n Bass – Episode 432 – Bumpy UK Garage with DJ BrainZ

Mornings with... Scruz - 21 August 2025

Towards the end of 1995 into 1996, Garage DJs were moving away from solely playing US imports at +6 and sets started to feature a lot more UK-produced records with higher energy, heavier basslines and lavish melodies. 

By ‘96 labels like Urban Beat, Confetti and Underground Classics were putting out incredible tunes that were distinctly different to what came before. 

Sped-up records from New York were still prevalent but sets were predominantly made up of a fresh, totally London-based sound. Stations like Freek FM were pushing Garage in a new direction with DJ Maddness and EZ at the forefront, building on what the likes of Hermit and Dominic Spreadlove had been doing for the previous few years at Gass Club in Leicester Square. 

EZ’s Flavour Zone and Maddness’s KMA shows on Freek are personally my favourite mixes ever and what got me into Garage to begin with.

During 1997 the sound completely evolved again with skippy, chunkier drums, even bigger basslines and a more experimental feel. 2 Step and Speed Garage took hold by the end of the year and while this is definitely the trendier side of Garage these days, the period just before this has always been my preference; a blend of those amazing US House records and London’s new take on them. 

I wanted this to feel like a Freek FM show so everything in the mix is from around those brilliant years of 1996 & 1997, apart from a few new tunes produced by me. Pure House & G flava. 

This is probably my favourite mix I’ve recorded tune-wise with some of the (I think) best records I own, a lot of which I’ve had for 10+ years but never put in a mix. Enjoy.
