What a vibe in the chat this week! S/O to the LLL fam going from strength to strength! Folks fr showing up to hang and have a good time! This week I didn't have a clear map of how things were gonna unfold, but I knew I had some jamming new tracks I had saved to maybe play in hour 2. So I first started on a rolling deep vibe and moved into some soulful, funky liquid. By the time the 2nd hour came around we had some fun chat interaction happening. I raised the temp some with some stomping jump tech rollers to keep the party vibe going and then eased into a more soul tech vibe later into the set. Good times was had by all. Thank you for the bits, subscriptions and gift subs to the channel. Big ups!

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP72|SEPT10|2022)

This session was cathartic for me personally. Been working long days and have had less time to  keep up with new releases but I snagged some tunes on Saturday and had some cool different stuff to play. Started off lush, deep and running into some wobbly bassline rollers and  synth heavy type stuff that I don't usually play that much. Some techy stuff and some jungle in the second hour ending into some uplifting rollers. Awesome vibe in the chat again. Fun Saturday session.

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP73|SEPT17|2022)

My day job has been keeping me busy —a true blessing— but consequently I've had little time for my usual weekly ritual of music vetting and archiving. Like every good DNB snob, I like to obsess over brand new releases to play on LLL. This week was the first time in about a year that I didn't do any significant prep, just dove right in and started playing. Of course I do still have dozens of older self-curated playlists ready, but I was still pleased with how I was able to navigate this set for 2 hours and keep some decent vibes rolling along. Starts off with some rollin liquid and soulful rollers, then bounces back and forth with some techy rollers. Some jungle and deep jungle type stuff around halfway, rounded out by some deep tech and party vibe rollers and going with deep heady rollers towards the end.

Many thanks to all my friends, LLL regulars and new subscribers who show up on Twitch to vibe with me each week.

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP74|SEPT24|2022)

For this mid-winter session, I wanted to do a callback to a winter mix series I used to do called 'Seasonal Affective Disorder' that focused on darker, more melancholy selections. First 30 or 40 minutes or so were pretty deep. In the middle section I moved into more angular sci-fi liquid and eventually into some minimal tech stuff. The middle part into the second hour might have gotten a little nastier than initially intended, but there's some cool tech rollers, some dark dubby rollers, before I smooth it out again towards the end with some liquid rollers. All in all I was pretty happy with how it turned out and I got to play some music in my collection I don't always get to play. Big up if you were there in the chat 🖤

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP87|JAN21|2023)

We were still in the throes of the pandemic when I launched the LLL series back in March of 2021. I had dipped my toes into the Twitch streaming pool through 2020 as part of the ATL DJ Collective crew but this was the first time I struck out on my own to do my own thing on my own channel. I had no idea where it was gonna end up but I set some parameters for myself. I wanted to avoid playing the same tracks from show to show and I wanted to make sure that every set I played met a minimum standard of quality to where I could throw the recording up on Soundcloud and it would stand up to some of the best mixes I heard from my personal DNB DJ idols. While I feel like in some ways I succeeded in that task, I think I underestimated the amount of work that would go into unearthing fresh new music every week, time spent organizing my Rekordbox playlists, tagging tunes by key and plain familiarizing myself with every new track, finding relationships between old and new tracks, devising a cue point system to alert me on the fly where vocals come in on tracks to avoid clashes. Not to mention, making artwork, posting on socials... The list goes on and on. I wish it were as easy as "just jumping on and playing for 2 hours". It's actually easy to do that, but can you jump on and PLAY WELL for 2 full hours?

With the benefit of hindsight and 100 LLL episodes under my belt I can undoubtedly say this endeavor has made me a better DJ, even with my 30+ years of experience going into this. The bonus level to all of it has been all the cool people I now call my friends, who log on every Saturday to watch me sink or swim every week. All the banter in the chat, tunes we've recommended to each other and bonding we've done over this music we love called drum'nbass. All the producers who've reached out to me and entrusted me with their exclusives. Everyone who's listened and shared on Soundcloud and socials... I appreciate y'all. I don't know for how long I'll keep this going, but for now I can call this experiment an unqualified success. Thanks for the support and much love 🖤

Liquid Lovers Lounge (EP100|MAY06|2023) *EXTENDED 3 HOUR SET*

Back from taking the week off and I was ready to spread my wings. Again, this session touches on a lot of different sounds. Got some feelgood rollers at the start, kind of atmospheric and soulful, moves into more driving liquid and about halfway into tech-inspired rollers. Dips down into more minimal wobblers during hour two before ramping back up into more soaring dancefloor rave territory towards the end. Sort of all over the place but in my head it made sense kind of lmao. Big up to everyone who came through for the stream. Cheers 🧡

D:RC came up DJing (mostly drum'nbass) in the mid-90s while attending the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga. As founding member of the local Phungus, Playtheavy and Sleuth Empire crews he found himself at the center of a burgeoning rave scene, collaborating with friends on dance music events in the Athens/Atlanta areas and beyond.

In 2004 he founded Studio:Machina, a graphic design practice geared towards the music industry. Building on his behind the scenes expertise and keen artistic instincts he's become an in-demand contributor on artistic projects in a variety of media. He's toured the US as member of the Smookie Illson bass music trio, serves as creative director for the Chicago-based Illeven:Eleven Recordings label and functions as brand/art director of several nightlife concepts. 

Behind the decks he currently heavily favors the sounds of DNB, but brief forays into breakbeat, house, UK Garage + Bass and dubstep are not uncommon. Get to know.
