Due to having a bit more time on my hands than expected this week I have put together another producer focused mix. This time I feature my good friend Graham's productions, aka Phat Playaz. 

If you're into deep rolling bass and appreciate this incredible producer then this two hour mix is for you. Featuring old, new and exclusive tracks! Shouts to Graham for digging deep in the archives. 

I hope you enjoy the mix and amazing sounds of Phat Playaz. Check it out!! 👍🏻

Lab Sessions Takeover - pyxis & Finnadrift

Juan aka Juandroid, resident DJ and member of Zürich’s Divercity crew got hooked on Drum&Bass in 2006 when he heard “The Trip” by Logistics on Hospital Records, the first track to introduce him to the genre.
He has been DJing steadily for twelve years, showcasing his broad taste of different styles and musical genres in his varied sets that range from Rollers to the more mellow styles and the sparse oldschool classic. 
Juandroid regards his residency at the Swiss Hospitality-series as his personal career highlight, since it’s always taking him back to those early days of falling in love with the music. 
We are happy to feature Juandroid’s first podcast in our series and look forward to hear him play out much more in the future.

Warm Ears Show hosted by Elementrix @Bassdrive.com (11th Nov 2023)

This week I announced that Liquid Lovers Lounge would cease to exist as a weekly stream, and moving to a monthly format instead. While this is certainly not the end by any means, it definitely marks the end of an era of sorts. When I started LLL as a weekly stream in early 2021, we were all still navigating pandemic times. Like most other DJs, it became the way for me to share music and connect with friends and fans during the uncertain times of social distancing and no live gigs. It was something I looked forward to doing every week as part of a very grounding routine and creative outlet. Lifelong friendships were forged and loyal contacts cemented inside that chat room over that period of time.

We're now quite removed from that. We've all since largely moved on with our collective lives. We're not spending as much time glued to our devices looking for entertainment anymore. I'm playing IRL DJ gigs, we're all attending real shows. In that context it makes sense for me to dial back the frequency of these streams.

Vetting that much new music every week, curating playlists, digging for music on a daily basis... as much as I love doing it, it's extremely time-consuming. My day job has very demanding hours. I've also set some personal work-related aspirational goals that will consume even more hours per week. In order to maintain a proper life/work/creative balance I had to rethink things. This was a tough but necessary decision to make.

Liquid Lovers Lounge is returning in February as a monthly stream and mix upload. Obviously, you can expect the same commitment to quality on my end. I'd like to thank everyone who's tuned in, listened, liked, shared and otherwise supported my content week in and week out. I hope you continue to do so. S/O to all the homies who've been sending me tunes, keep 'em coming ;)

Big up LLL Fam! Much love 🖤

- Darcy

Hit the Lights (ft Emma Goln)

"Like roots leading the tree, lava moves the sea."

"Quiet Storm" is an elemental collision of soul and sub-bass. Exploring the tension between suppression and release, this track builds from a whisper into a roaring, molten groove.

Featuring a distorted, rolling bassline that mimics the flow of lava and soulful vocals that cut through the noise, it tells the story of an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object—and breaking free.

It’s not just a storm; it’s a new landscape being born.

Lyrics:
"The quiet storm that’s deep inside of me... won't let me be.
I try to stand still but the ground is shaking.
Like roots leading the tree.
Lava moves the sea.
I must be free."

Produced by Chetty Mo (E3B Studios).

A prominent voice in the thriving new generation of drum & bass artists, yet she broke through in her early 40s. A discerning, deep-digging selector, yet you will never be able to book her for a club set… In the vast oceans of D&B talent, in every direction you look, pyxis swims upstream.

Certifiably one of a kind, pyxis – Marisa to her friends – has deep roots in the industry behind the scenes, working royalties for over 20 years for hundreds of high-profile artists from Alix Perez to Hybrid Minds, ensuring everyone gets paid. Then came a time when the scene started paying attention to her own art… 

Forever tinkering with ideas since her mind was first blown by LTJ Bukem’s ‘Music’, pyxis finally put her own music out in 2019. Long overdue, an explosion of inspiration led to a whole range of flavours flexing from jungle-inspired grooves to gilded sunny-side liquid on influential and inspiring labels such as Goldfat, Four Corners and Eloisa, with whom she released the ground-breaking first all-female produced and fronted EP in drum & bass in 2020 – the XX EP. 

In her short-but-meteoric rise so far, pyxis has also collaborated with the likes of Mitekiss, Iris, Nickbee, Kleu, Phil:osophy, Low:r and other labels she’s released music on so far include Goldfat, Spearhead and Pilot, and her own Beats In Mind imprint, a non-profit platform that champions new talent with regular VA drops, all strictly to raise funds for mental health organisations. It’s a cause close to pyxis heart as her acute social anxiety has led to her being unable to attend events for a great deal of her adult life and taken her off the well-beaten club and rave track almost all artists tread. 

This has a huge influence on everything pyxis puts out into the world. Rather than being inspired by making big dancefloor weapons, Marisa’s music is guided by life, family, friends and the great outdoors from which she takes her name from… Named after the constellation, which is also known as the Mariner’s Compass, she’s become a guiding light on the soulful and deeper side of the ever-growing drum & bass movement. Living up to her alias in every possible way; in a sea of stars, pyxis shines bright.
