No one can deny that @conducta is surfing on the crest of garage's new wave. The Bristol-born artist is a dexterous DJ who jumps from style to style, leaving uplifting grooves in his wake. As a producer, he is just as nimble, and his Kiwi Records label and regular mixes have also helped to define a fresh new take on the classic sound. Always bright, sun kissed and never afraid to take on a big tune or recognisable sample, nothing is off-limits for this classy, party-starting DJ.

Part of the reason Conducta is so effective is the quickness and precision of his mixes - there is no time to linger when he is in the booth. Instead, you're hurried along from one bumping groove or darkened bassline to the next, and of course, that is the case in this week's mix. Elements of grime, dubstep, 2-step and the odd cheeky bootleg all colour his tightly woven and sun-baked grooves. The result is a mix as fun as it is fresh, and one that effortlessly highlights the fantastic breadth and depth of the current scene.

Dekmantel Podcast 332 - Conducta

Stepping up we have the one and only D-Dubz. Hailing from Hannover Germany, his Dub Jamz releases (via Wax Pistols and 124 recordings) are sought after gems and represent an exciting twist on a classic 4x4 template.

We’re thrilled to have him onboard, so here's an hour long, 100% dubplate ride through the finest Garage flavours.

Read a little more about Max from the man himself:

"I started Wax Pistols records 8 years ago, worked with Karl Brown, DNR, Perception always focusing on real ruff underground flavours and now being back with a new solo alias. Me personally I have a strong love for everything connected to history of UK rave culture so music, lifestyle, artwork, fashion so everything between 89-96. Thats why I made contact with original artists from back then and also that has shaped my musical style listening and production wise. 

Starts with using original sample floppys from back in the day to mixing technic or artwork creation. Its all about exploring the golden years as someone that hasn't grown up with any of these things"

'Music They Love'... we ask DJ's and producers to delve into their collection and put together a selection of records that have meant a lot to them in the past, as well as the present. All things inspirational and influential - the records which have shaped their sound as a producer or selection as a DJ.

This week, the man himself @riz_la_teef comes through with a mix filled with his favourite floaty 2-step records. The sun might be taking a while to show itself this year, but all you need to do is flick this on & be transported to a warm summer's day.

RIZ LA TEEF (THREADS TAKEOVER) 10.12.21

I’ve told this story before but this time I have a mix to go with it so I’ll tell it again…Twenty years ago, during the early noughties when garage was mutating into grime I DJ’d in a crew with a load of mc’s called Riot Squad. We thought we were Nottingham's version of the Pay As U Go Cartel.

UK music was super fertile around those years and this was the first little pocket of my record buying “career” I found myself truly obsessed with. Parties, tape packs and radio was starting to get muckier with the focus shifting to MC’s. You could smell the influence that infamous little club up the road in Sheffield had on me a mile off and while the roots were starting to poke through, dubstep was still a few years away.. 

Decided to record a mix of the records I was playing up here during those times. Some of them are well known, some of them I don’t even know what the fuck they are. All bangers though and all have been getting played for nearly 20 years so excuse the noise, crackles and pops. x

Lukas Wigflex - The Land Before Grime.

Oneman is a club DJ through and through. Stephen Bishop hopscotches through his hard drive playing the best in UK club music and well beyond. His playful presentation style is carried over from the pirate radio stations he grew up listening to in South London.

Oneman’s own words on the mix:

"This mix takes you through the more broken end of the dance music scale, blending up front UKG, electro and breaks with a few NY Dance sounds, the journey goes from a calmer melodic start into more percussive realms"
