Mixes I enjoy

At the start of 2015 I was inspired to create a drum & bass podcast series to show off all the awesome new tracks from all the super-fantastic producers of my favorite genre of dance music. While I do love playing all sorts of different genres of bass music, drum & bass will always be my first love, the sound that got me into this scene in the first place. And so here we are. One year into this project, I've found this to be a most enjoyable endeavor. Hope you feel the sounds I've shared with you! <3

Frankie Bones I Need Your Lovin like the sunshine

riedspeed

aug2017

From the very first version, the track was already moving close to 140 BPM.  Then it got remixed to death before an unauthorized version appeared which was 150 BPM plus.  This is the original Brooklyn Warehouse Redux which was slowed down to 133 BPM, to let it breathe a little bit.  Sounds much better this way, trust me.
