SUNANDBASS Podcast

Here we go, our March edition sees Djinn bring us to the dark, early hours of the morning-after. You’ll be very happy to put on headphones and let Djinn take you on this journey, reminding us of nights we haven’t had in quite some time. Djinn cut her teeth playing underground shows around the UK since 2004 before settling in Manchester and usually tours internationally way back ‘before’ and we are...

January is over and it looks like things are getting better, well it's definitely better now that we have Alegria as our next podcast. Alegria is a long time friend and SUNANDBASS veteran attending every year since 2009. You will always find him right at the front left to get the best views of the party! And if you're looking for more, tune in to his 'DrumObsession' radio show every Tuesday at 17:...

It’s a new year and there is a lot of hope for the future, especially now that our first podcast of 2021 is from heavyweight Klute. A true rebel and rogue, the sound of Klute’s Commercial Suicide label is one of the pillars that represent what SUNANDBASS stands for musically today.

It has only been a little more than a year, but it feels like another era since DJ Flight held the EQ50 talk for us on a sunny September day in La Cinta Beach Bar. Aren’t you curious what happened to everyone? Digging deep into how the community will respond to the urgent call for equality further sparked by the blacklivesmatter movement, but also how including and encouraging of equality can be d...

During SUNANDBASS 2019, we were proud to host EQ50's special talk presented by Marcus Intalex Music Foundation Radio. The talk was hosted by DJ Flight who brought together and interviewed many of the badass womxn from our community and which ultimately inspired us to present them bit by bit this December calendar. These conversations are finally to be released as videos and podcasts for you to (re...

ENERGY. Something I think we need a little of heading into Winter (at least for us Europeans. And for many, LOCKDOWN-2, electric avenue. This couldnt really have been a better time for a mix like this from longstanding SUNANDBASS resident Jumping Jack Frost. Strap on a pair of trainers and go pound some pavement in your daily outside time, and I assure you. Actually I insure you, for feeling a who...

Now this, is an exciting one to introduce - it's the original vermentino bubbler, San Teodoro's fix-up ya troubler, simply none other, it's the Prince of Sardegna, the festival's champion, it's Sir. Stefano. Sechi.... Sechi has emptied his heart into his 1210's on this one, it's an all vinyl 93-97 Jungle Mix, and I must say, it's is an absolute musical scripture, a seminal text, ripened for the sa...

We've wanted the Shogun boys GLXY on the podcast for some time now and they've kindly crafted us a 90 minuter, peppered with rollers and forgotten classics. It's SUNANDBASS heartland through and through - so with (I hope) continued sunshine for you all across Europe and beyond, this fits the bill very snugly; to pop an Ichnusa and have a little bounce : ) Check out GLXY's debut album 'Research & D...

We've only bloody hit #100! Thanks to everyone that's been with us from the start, and if you haven't, well you have plenty to catch up on - and what better a time for it. To celebrate, we've got a right lippy little gobshite of a mix from ever-brilliant DLR. Skanking it's way across your stereoscape, DLR has provided an asbolute stinker for us. If this doesnt make you wanna bust out of lockdown f...

'Let me take you on a trip. A journey full of sound and beats. One that will lead you down....' No it's not another quiz, but I bet you can finish that sentence... The remaining lyrics of that couldnt be more fitting for the current situation we all find ourselves in, but not least for the wicked path that our very own Acite takes us on in this months podcast. I think we are overdue a little bounc...

Deep, Dark and Dutty. Homemade Weapons, one of the stand out and most talked about sets of last years festival has spun us this dutty wobbler from his weapon cave. Decent set of headphones or a detached house for this puppy, this is like Coronavirus in sound form. Check out the 7th and latest release on Weaponry - Roho - Alter Ego EP - https://weaponry.lnk.to/wpn007 Aswell as Homemade Weapons remi...

Here is a special mix from A Sides to keep us going while we wait for his upcoming EP Fours out on March 27th. "I just wanted to send my love out to all of our Sun And Bass friends and family out there going through some crazy times right now. I hope this mix and music makes your day a little better. See you all soon. A Sides" Track List: No Doubt - D-Minds Fallen - Ill Truth Kiss The Ring - The S...

Lyndon Jarr of Unchained in Asia graces us with some of the sounds he's delivering out in China and beyond. The growing label and events company has a far stretching roster of artists that produce and playout across the region, and is well worth an explore. Lyndon's mix is plentiful of dubs, dishing out a brilliant cross section of what he's using to spread the genre-love across the Asia region. F...

We love a good over indulge in December but I dont get this fun-deficit everyone seems to lay on themselves for January.... Well, there shall be no famine here! Danny Wheeler has wound up one firecracker of a mix for us to kick off 2020. So whether you're pounding the treadmill or weaping in your cave, I know I cant see a better foot to get stepping with than this lively mojo tickler from DW. Merr...

Move aside carefully crafted NYE playlists, a Bryan G shaped grenade has been pulled and it's headed square at your pre-drinks - aHhHhghGhHggfnjsfnrwonfroh!!!! V Recordings bossman has laid up some stonking beach sets for us over the years and 2019 was not one he held back on. Burdened with bangers, Bryan G's record bag erupted at La Cinta on the Monday, and it's time re-open pandoras box. . . Hap...

Big. Bad. And Heavy. From Bcee sunshine to gazebo dirt, we had to take you on a bit of a journey this month, and few sets tick off the late-night gazebo grit as well as @Mantra and @Djinn feat. @Blackeye and @Double-O . It's not hard to put yourself back in the sweatbox for the graveyard shift steppers... You should follow them via: https://www.rupturelondon.com/ http://www.djdjinn.com/ or via soc...

No matter how dutty you love your gazebo wobblers, there is no denying how well ball-tickling liquid pairs with paradise. Kick back, shut ya lids, and put yourself back into the Garden of Ambra Night with the Spearhead Bcee (@spearheadrecords) alongside @tempza and @charlottehaining. Follow them via https://spearheadrecords.co.uk/ or on social media https://www.instagram.com/stevebcee/ https://www...

One of our favourite things over the course of SUNANDBASS week is the buzz around certain sets and people’s hype of the people that have killed it so far. Kim’s was one of those this year that so many people mentioned, and she’s kindly allowed us to publish it as part of this live series. Fulla bangers and tightly knitted, it’s @delahaye for Podcast 91.

We’ve had such a wicked response to the release of Total Science & Flights festival sets last month that we’ve decided to do a December special, giving you lucky little sun-seekers a newly released festival recording during the run-up to Christmas. First up is the HIGHLY lauded @mcSystem ft. @cleveland-watkiss – we’ve been yearning to get a podcast release on Mark for as long as we’ve had hair – s...

We’ve not had a good jungle fix on the podcast for some time, so we hit up Flight to see if we could bag up and publish her set from the Friday of the festival. She has obliged! Alongside MC Chickaboo and Double O, it’s not hard to put yourself back in that steaming gazebo stepping along to those lary snares and wavey basslines. Enjoy!

As the temperature starts to dip across Sardinia and beyond, we've decided to spend the coming months bringing you back to the warm bosom of San Teodoro by showcasing some of our favourite recordings from this year's festival. Kicking us off are legends of the game - @Total-Science & GQ - who ripped Monday a new one and kicked off the whole week with this grenade. The festival lives on. Red red re...

It's the man who did the unthinkable and braved remixing one of the most well known D&B tracks of all time....and came out stomping. The return of Unglued to the Island is a hugely welcome one, and we have the pleasure of him giving us a taste of what’s to come next week through this brilliant, and very fitting mix to launch the 2019 edition of Sun and Bass. Ladies and Gents, it is at last upon us...

It’s been a little while since we’ve had our very own ArpXP step up to the controls for a SUNANDBASS podcast, but with his latest EP ‘Somewhere Else’ just screeched out the door here at the label, it felt like the right moment to get him to wheel up for us. Sit back and enjoy 60 minutes of deep, nourishing ear canal atmos from the Sardinian maestro. It really is pleasant. www.instagram.com/arpxp w...

Long time Manchester crew member Dogger has been craftily building his production skills for a number of years now, learning in the wings from good friends and men of the moment, DRS, Chimpo & the likes. This year he finally sprung on the scene with his debut EP Broken Home, and I needn't really say how popular it's been. Here is the opportunity to enhance 43 minutes of your day with a wonderfully...

Longstanding Drum & Bass bromance Zero T & Steo grace us with a scorcher of a mix to accompany the ticket release this month. Zero T is one of those producers, and DJs, that time after time finds that beautiful symbiosis of diverse drums, considered vocals.....and growl. It just means every release of his brings something new to the table, and the shape of his mixes does the same, taking you on a...
