John B Podcast 200: Live at Conform, Belgium [31.1.25] (DNB Classics Set)

Valiant One (in theaters now) stars Chase Stokes (John B of Netflix Outer Banks) as Capt. Brockman, an Army data analyst whose helicopter is shot down over North Korea. He and survivors have to find their way back without any military support. Chase and director Steve Barnett discuss the film, the locations and some of the decisions that were made in the production of Valiant One.

Buy 'Ventil-8 (Original Mix)' - https://bfan.link/ventil8

Welcoming 2 familiar names back to Metalheadz for their debut collaborative release.

John B, known for his distinctively energetic style and LaMeduza, celebrated for her powerfully emotive vocals, prove themselves a force to be reckoned across two mixes of 'Ventil-8'.

Focusing on the uplifting spirit of 90s rave music, 'Ventil-8' is a future anthem waiting to be unleashed. LaMeduza's voice is the perfect complement to the varying elements, balanced out exquisitely on both the lively original mix as well as the darker, more club focused VIP mix.

I was recreating John B's track Up all night. I really like how the drums came out, especially half way through with all the added effects. I stray from his arrangement around that point as well. I thought about mixing it up more because it does sound similar still but i think he'd appreciate the effort. Hope you enjoy.

Something a bit different from me! A label that I've been meaning to do a deep dive on for some time, finally got the chance to sort my records and CDs and start a 2 part look at the awesome, forward thinking and downright jazzy New Identity Records!

Stress Factor Podcast 326 - DJ B-12 - July 2025 Drum & Bass Studio Mix

This is a mix of 90s jazzstep classics, with anthems and deep cuts from Tango, Lemon D, Peshay, Photek, and more. The jazzstep style helped introduce me to jungle/dnb back in the day.

My feelings have circled around from thinking jazzstep was cheesy, when I was deep into techstep and neurofunk, to appreciating the raw production and creativity of these early tunes. How different they sound from each other contrasts with how formatted the music became as it morphed into liquid funk and then liquid dnb.

The artwork, brilliantly executed by RQ, references the iconic Wipeout 2097 soundtrack, down to the wave slyly evoking the title.

This mix features fallen soldiers Tango, Mark Goodings (Hidden Agenda), Molly Duncan (Intense), and Marcus Intalex, who released "Sky High", which sampled Guru.

19:04 Peshay - Jazz Lick (Nexus, 1996)
