I'm a raving reposter, mostly of dnb and it's family of sub genres, tho branch into bass and psychedelia of all sorts, and mostly long play mixes, podcastes etc to spread the good sound of those awesome producers and dj's out there. Especially women dj/producers and other genders, non binary. Support your live local dj's and producers too 🔥 eyes on like a spider.

I'm mostly a Drum and Bass / Jungle DJ who sometimes dabbles with other genres.
