Straight from the vault the 2025 edition of my annual drum'n'bass vinyl only set is here! 
And this time it's an extended 2.5h journey for the trippy-minded heads out there. 

Like always I want to showcase my taste and my roots, the more underrated side of the genre including lots of forgotten gems and b-sides, that people rarely refer to when they talk about the 'golden years' nowadays. Drum'n'Bass mixes need to be unpredictable, challenging, rough, raw and grimey. I usually like them to dissolve in excess.

My entry for the CAUSE4CONCERN x MIGUEL DNB - DJ CONTEST. 
Mixed on 2xCDJ1000 + turntable. I'll call this one City17.

The names of Ed Rush & Optical, CZA, Ogonek, COOH, Audio, Optiv & BTK bring me back to the beginning of my conscious unconsciousness. The contest made me, naturally, dug deep into the old school, techstep sounds of drum and bass and remembered me where my low-frequency journey started.
Thank you all for the music!

Dropping today via C4C Recordings, HLZ delivers his reimagined remix of a Cause4Concern classic. Retaining the raw energy of the original, HLZ injects the quality back into this hypnic slice of funk.

It's a deep, tech-driven rework that pays homage to C4C’s legacy while pushing the sound forward. A must-spin for any serious drum & bass selector.

Kodeka | Full Spectrum Bristol Collective Takeover | Croakheads Guest Mix | DnB Mix

Artist: Cause4Concern
Release: Phatcap (TRCD Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK088
Support: https://cygnusmusic.link/8wznqrz

Originally dropping back in 1999 on C4C Recordings, “Phatcap” has long been a staple of the neuro-heavy DnB scene. Now, TRCD injects the timeless drum loops and iconic bassline with a modern twist, honoring the original's spirit while giving it a fresh energy.

TRCD begins by resurrecting the rolling, punchy kick/snare combo that defined the original. From there, he refines the groove with crisp, meticulously layered hi-hats and sub-divided ghost snares. The result is a relentless, dancefloor-ready rhythm that jolts the track into 2025 territory.

That unmistakable sub-bass from the original remains intact—but TRCD enhances it with more punch and depth. Subsonic rumble underpins the rework, and occasional mid-range growls slide in, adding weight to the restructuring’s low-end.

Release: Bedhead (Quadrant & Iris Remix)
Label: C4C Recordings
Cat#: C4CDIGUK089
Support: https://cygnusmusic.link/m47yqwy

From the opening seconds, the Quadrant & Iris remix of Bedhead strikes a careful balance between reverence and reinvention. The original’s ominous sub-bass growl and the skeletal drum patterns that made Bedhead a C4C classic are still present.

For longtime fans, this version is a respectful tribute; for newer ears, it stands on its own as a high-caliber, heavy-hitting drum & bass track. Quadrant & Iris manage to refresh a classic without betraying its spirit—a mark of what a good remix should aim for.

I’ve complained in the past about modern music needing a jolt of innovation without coming off as pretentious. Phidippus seems to epitomize the desire to make great music while refusing to keep to one specific formula, making his trajectory as an artist fascinating to watch. I find Phidippus to be an immensely underappreciated musician who just needs one big hit to make his name reverberate throughout the densely packed world of electronica, and I hope that that day comes sooner rather than later.

Whenever you think of the name CZA, a few things spring to mind. Quality, versatility and a habit of producing simply big tracks. Since he first started releasing music over a decade ago, CZA has always had a reputation for putting it all out there and has received deserved acclaim as an individual who represents only the best in drum & bass music. 

Blending deep, dark and serious vibes, CZA always exudes an air of professionalism and extremely high production values. His music expertly matches the light with the dark, with a considered and deadly approach. His releases have been on practically every label at the upper reaches of D&B and, in the various guises in which he has recorded, has touched the four corners of the globe in terms of both production and DJing. 

It is no surprise that CZA, along with partner in crime Optiv (Deceased) and the wider Cause4Concern collective are so widely respected and held up as innovators in the D&B game. Known for his techy, rolling flavours, experience and knowledge shines through in everything CZA does. As Cause4Concern emerged in the late 90s, so arose to the considerable talents of CZA. 

The prolific producer has been changing the face of D&B since then. His standing in the industry and amongst fans is second to none. Experience is mixed with innovation, and new and radical ideas are never far away. Whether it’s world building, the creation of aural atmospheres or just low-down dirty grooves, CZA can and does deliver. The new tracks will continue the rich vein of quality, far-reaching and forward-thinking music for which CZA has been rightly lauded. From the punch of the snare, to the boom of the bass, CZA has it all covered. For the finer side of drum & bass music, check out CZA.
