There & Back 001: January, Rolling Drum & Bass 1994-1996

Crate-digging is fun! This is a mix I've done, originally planned for, uh, February, where I've made a mix of UK techno (loosely defined), which covers all angles, which means that the mix starts off pretty stripped-down and minimal, then goes through some chunky modern acid house, then into some bass-heavy dub and jungle influenced techno that could only come from the UK, some more loopy hardgroove-style stuff, then steadily more banging and intense, right up to some classic London acid techno, modern industrial techno from Perc and, finally, my own extremely uncompromising track ‘Crossbones’! 

Enjoy!

Peoples Station #46 - 28/09/24 DJ Chromz & Vali NME Click

For the fifth installment in the There & Back series, I've put together this multi-genre mix that involves lots of crate-digging to join the dots between electro, breaks, UK garage, jungle techno, and bass music. I'm really proud of this mix and hope you enjoy it as well - how often do you find artists as disparate as @jensen-interceptor @nitefleit @yorobi @rusko @burakasomsistema and more all on one mix?

American in Berlin! I've been a dj since 1997, playing across a wide range of dance music genres, as you can see from the variety of mixes. I love it all! 

Want recommendations? Drop me a DM and I'll hook you up. 

I sometimes play at Berlin clubs, but mostly I am a hardcore vinyl collector and bedroom mixer. Check out my blog at www.sonicrampage.org/blog
