Mix The Belt Episode 000: Josh BtB Presents 'Drum & Bass'

More 2014 re-uploads from @bitethebelt-official - this time from Tune Depot Host and Bite the Belt Founder, Josh Swanson, under a one-time-mix-alias.. Pieces

A tasty little 30 minute mix that explores the Hip-Hop/Parisian/US-inspired Bass Music fringe.

An easy to digest sound-bite dancing across the bass-music board, a constant BPM changer and something set to pick you up from the gloom and straight into a ridiculous groove.

Drop your eggs in several different baskets and scoff up the pieces – things are about to get messy.

Mix the Belt Episode 003: Pieces - Bustin' Eggs Mix

Last of the 2014 Mix the Belt re-uploads from @bitethebelt-official - this one's from Tune Depot Host and Bite the Belt Founder, Josh Swanson

The man behind our blog is back, like a horrible rash that just won’t go away, with his third and our sixth instalment of Mix the Belt.

A somewhere-around-the-60-minute-mark insight into the centre of one of the most prevalent bass music lusts in recent years: the trials and tribulations of 160bpm.

Starting at 150bpm and rising, the mix meanders its way around a complex array of future-hip-hop, footwork, juke & broken beat-rivulets into the upper echelons of 160bpm.

Music on the genre fringe – all collated, blended and mixed by the deft fingers of Bite the Belt head honch, Josh Swanson.

“No genre resides within a formula – music exists within feelings and loose frameworks that should be challenged and explored on every level. The space between 150 and 160 bpm harbours all manner of musical history and evolution, likewise it is a spacious bridge between almost entirely separate genres and one that is impossibly exciting to see re-emerging from the ashes. If something has become a precious, guarded treasure it’s time to find the key and get pilfering!”
