Entry #4 - 16.05.2025
Dear Mix Diary,
Life just got very busy recently. I’m working on a new project that has really inspired me; I feel like everyday I push my creative boundaries. It gives me some peace.
We just booked a deposit for an event in August! I can’t believe that 6 months ago we were just a small Soundcloud account hoping to make new friends. Now we are an incredible team, have four collectives involved, an incredible lineup and nearly 700 followers.
I thought this summer might be quiet, but it’s become the opposite. I am playing for two of my dark/minimal inspirations in June. Radio shows, guest list to events, etc. We are now running/hosting two events in August, as well as festivals. I am still not quite over that I suddenly have these amazing opportunities. But whilst it looks effortlessly easy, I don’t think people see how hard we are all working behind the scenes.
I’m excited to see Koven (and my friends) tomorrow. And for our Reload event next week. And I am REALLY excited because I’m now going to BALTER!
I feel grateful everyday. 
Love,
Zaba

@Varkid

Dirtbox Recordings proudly presents the third solo release from rising Drum & Bass producer Varkid, the Barnsley-based artist, Brent Kilner.

Known for his high-octane productions and genre-blending sound, Varkid delivers two massive
tracks that have been tearing through clubs over the past year, finally making their official debut.
With a more commercial edge to his signature style, these latest offerings showcase Varkid’s sharpened production skills and his natural flair for crowd-commanding bangers.

This release marks the final release ahead of Varkid’s highly anticipated debut album, set to land this winter.

The album promises to be a mammoth statement piece, currently receiving its finishing touches, and will span the full spectrum of Varkid’s influences. With a strong legacy in UK garage, speed garage, and bass house under his Brent Kilner alias, Varkid’s return to Drum & Bass through Dirtbox has cemented his place as one of the North’s most exciting electronic music talents. Get ready, the storm is only just beginning.

1/ Varkid- “Think Of Me”

Varkid dives headfirst into a polished, commercial drum and bass vibe with this standout release.
Opening with a lush, atmospheric intro and a captivating vocal, the track quickly launches into a
rolling off-bass groove paired with a melodic riff destined to dominate festival stages worldwide.
Thoughtful editing and expertly crafted effects showcase Varkid’s evolving production skills, marking this as a milestone moment in his catalogue.

2/ Varkid- “Wait For Me”

The second teaser from the upcoming Varkid album is already making waves across the global scene.

With soaring vocals leading into a euphoric blend of rich melodies, layered harmonies, and gritty
bass stabs, this track hits all the right notes.

A true roller through and through, it offers a powerful glimpse into what the full album has in store.

Varkid drops his latest on June 13th 2025

Engle - If We Ever Dub

British-American music producer LUCKYKAT takes over Sonance Sessions with a special guest mix of his own production and signature genre—High Contrast. This unique sound blends melodic techno, progressive house, deep house, minimal techno, and cinematic elements into a powerful emotional journey.
Expect soaring, reverb-soaked highs, chilled melancholic breakdowns, and an ever-changing dynamic range designed to captivate. With releases on multiple international labels and appearances at music festivals, LUCKYKAT’s craftsmanship shines in every beat.
Recorded straight from the Kat Kave studio (when Liverpool FC aren’t playing), this mix showcases his deep artistry and passion for sound.

Melodic Vol. 42 LUCKYKAT Guest Mix

Wicked mix from the undisputed king of the breakdown Big Bud... This one was from around 2005 when he was diversifying from his deep atmospheric signature sounds (Infinity +Infinity and the incredible Late Night Blues) and produced a series of tunes with heavy dub and reggae influences (Fear of Flying, Connections and Kool Beans etc). Love this mix 👌

"DJing pulls me into the here and now – into a higher state of vitality. Free from problems. Free from thoughts.." 
Since the early 90s, DJ Upzet has been a devoted fan of electronic music. From the very beginning, he was drawn to Acid Techno, Rave, and Trance. In 1997, at just sixteen, he discovered his all-consuming love for Drum & Bass and and within a year, he was behind the decks. In 2001, he had begun organizing Dnb events in and around Mannheim, which, at the time, was Germany’s DnB capital city.
In 2009, Upzet made the move to Berlin, where he continued DJing and commenced promoting club event series like "Out of Mind", "Step higher", "Infected", "Lucid Dreaming", and other special party nights. Fast forward to 2015, he has been running the VOID Berlin, which he recently managed to enlarge. Thus, today, he is the owner and operator of VOID Club and VOID Hall. 
During the pandemic lockdownn, he reconnected with music production. His first track was released on Scientific Records with more to follow soon.
Today, Upzet’s signature styles are Liquid, Deep, Dark, Tech, Neuro, and Jumpup, though he’s no stranger to mixing Oldskool Jungle, Happy Breaks, or even Dark and Melodic Techno - bringing an infectious energy to every set. Above all, he crafts his mixes with one core principle: harmony.
