The Stand Alone Complex (Ed Rush & Optical Mix)

Today on Line Noise we welcome none other than Roni Size to the microphone, a Bristol producer who has more drum and bass hits than you’ve had awkward breakfasts with your partner’s parents. We talked about jazz, The Wild Bunch, Reprazent, Method Man and more. Thanks to the people at the Hospitality in the Woods festival for setting this up. It takes place in Beckenham Place Park on August 19, with a stellar drum and bass line up, including Roni himself, High Contrast, Dillinja, Bryan Gee, Jumpin' Jack Frost and LTJ Bukem. And this IS the final Line Noise of the season. Back in September.

Line Noise Episode 138 (Roni Size)

For Rezidence 35 I took a crate of DJ EKG's Drum & Bass and mixed it live for the first time. Thanks Eric.

WICKED, WICKED, JUNGLIST MASSIVE / Jungle/Drum and Bass Mix

Chorus:
So I spit it quick, never slow, never slack,  
Ride the bass wave, can’t nobody hold me back.  
Drum and bass beats, power, that’s a fact,  
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it out let’s attack!

Verse 1:
My head is shakin’ in the speaker stack
Rattle bass in the face is my rude boy snack
I'm a beast, king of chaos make stacks
Got ma drip like sweat when da’ club full packed

Bass droppin’ heavy, make the whole club shake,  
Feel the crowd wild child pumpin’ drum  and bass breaks 
Whoo lawd! ladies in the back ain’t nuttin’ fake,  
They some wild childs make me do a double triple take

Chorus:
So I spit it quick, never slow, never slack,  
Ride the bass wave, can’t nobody hold me back.  
Drum and bass beats, power, that’s a fact,  
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it out let’s attack!

Verse 2:
Grime in my veins, like a bullet, I’m a shot,  
Runnin’ up stream find my target ain’t no stop  
True the night, shadow cover black out da’ block
When I grab the mic right you know I come to shock

Rippin’ up the stage boy feastin’ like a beast,  
Demons shakin’ quakin’ take a piss in they sheets
Raw like a lion, spit fire when I roar,  
Up the tempo, let the bass beats raw hit the floor.  

Repeat Chorus: 

Turn It Out (sample)

I upload drum & bass music from ~1997 to ~2006.
I also contribute to Discogs and Mixesdb, check out my links to my other pages.

When the mood takes these mixes are done for the love of the music and appreciation of the artists/labels. Whether it's the commute, before & after work,  for good times with friends, to show off my collection or whatever else, please remember and continually remind the people that jungle is massive!
