Turns out I couldn’t wait longer than two days to post another one of these Grooverider remixes - Higher Education is the label responsible for the legendary Konflict remix of Karl K’s Synapse - this however is Grooverider’s (and Optical’s) take on American rock band Soul Coughing - the vocals are pretty awful but we’re rolling out the dub version here, nothing but brutal beats and winding warped bass just how we like it, missus!

#Dillyday is upon us once again and this time we’re drawing deep for the jungle - back when it was spelled with GER, the man put out this proper floor mover - rattling breaks go progressively from step to an all out roll out (now just go for it!) with trademark Dilly sub action!

No one ran a house vibe like Marcus Intalex and 2005’s “Paranoid” is just that - no crazy builds or drops, just a straight floor burner complete with tweaking acid which isn’t always easy to pull off but of course Marcus manages with ease - these days you have to shop around a bit for “grown up” d’n’b but it’s there, stroking a beard at the back of the club! #ripmarcusintalex (swipe for audio) - REVOLVER008 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #marcusintalex #paranoid #revolve:r #datmusic #2005 #tweakingacid https://www.instagram.com/p/B-xPFs-Km3V/?igshid=1j4ceeodg0lih

I definitely slept on the ‘Rider’s Jeep Mix of this re-worked James Bond thème back in ‘97, probably because of how much disdain I had for the pop star version of Moby when I was 17! There aren’t many surprises here, big steppy beats and Virus style bass line, lots of movie SFX and quote samples etc. - worth checking out if you’re a fan of Bond, James Bond, or the ‘Rider, Grooverider!

Here’s another club banger loaded with superstars - Shy FX alongside legend MC Stamina and überfamous Lily Allen with a 3 minute pop song for the floor - you’ve probably heard this one out and about, watch out for the remix from @thesauce lads too, it’s what’s what!

Swipe to hear around a minute of proper choppage (proppage?) as only the man Breakage can slice - 2004’s Acid Rain by jungle sensai Equinox goes under the knife and as with most of these smashers the devil is in the details, or rather, the edits - it’s easy to get lost in the machine but that weighty sub keeps us grounded as Breakage is also a low end master! - INP 008 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #equinox #acidrain #breakage #remix #inperspectiverecords #2004 #choppage #proppage #amenbreak #junglesensai https://www.instagram.com/p/B-pbBdxKimI/?igshid=1o7bzippt9nak

Another excellent remix from Calibre, this time pushing up the tempo on Badmarsh & Shri’s triphop track “Signs” - there’s not a sound out of place here (standard) and the remix works so well it’s still being played today by certain DJ’s favourite DJ’s - swipe for the clip - OUT49 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #badmarsh #shri #signs #calibre #remix #outcasterecords #bollywood #ep #2003 #djsfavouritedj https://www.instagram.com/p/B-m-yLvK6-C/?igshid=tj0n3fcmrzdd

Cracker day outside today (here at least) - perfect for some dance-fighting! J Majik & Wickaman blew up the dance in 2003 with support from the top DJs in the genre, every singing along and pretending to speak Portuguese! This is an absolute peak time tune and there are a bunch of great remixes out there too — one for the messed-up-in-the-sun-crowd!

“Well? Do you like them? This sexy dress and these cool shoes...” - sorry guys, I forgot about #dillyday for a while so to make up for it here’s his savage remix of The Ye Ye Girls - why don’t they do this anymore? Take something poppy and tear it to pieces? These days it’s all soft #oldmanrant - anyway, swipe for the clip and enjoy this heaving remix - happy Dilly Day! - N212005 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #theyeyegirls #iwasayeyegirl #dillinja #remix #n2records #2002 #tgifriday #tgidillyday #dillyday https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hyN5MC4CG/?igshid=zeku747j1ged

Hidden on the back of an old Hardware chronicle lies this little gem - One Day is analogue goodness produced by German duo Tronik 100 - warm and inviting pads mixed with house-y beats, perhaps influenced by what was happening on Soul:R at the time - it definitely pays to dig deep in these old back catalogues, I have no doubt that this tune was a favourite for some - swipe for audio - RH37 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #tronik100 #oneday #thehardertheycome #renegadehardware #renegaderecordings #2002 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hEuGtCowW/?igshid=58we08gelnol

“What kinda music you into?” “Drum’n’bass.” “What’s that?” “Umm... you know Roni Size?” “No.” “Okay... you know that song Totally Addicted To Bass?” “Oh yeah!” “Okay, so it’s kinda like that...” “Oh...okay...” —— This was how I had to describe d’n’b to the uneducated BITD - So I chose what might be the best mix of this popular yet naff tune, Apollo 440 have the honours - swipe for a trip back in time, maybe even before you born, when suits’n’ties tried to popularise d’n’b - 12GUS6X ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #puretone #addictedtobass #apollo440 #remix #2001 #gustorecords #suitsnties #youknowronisize https://www.instagram.com/p/B-chEWiCTtu/?igshid=1x7w388wu3v3g

Reinforced mainstay and absolute badman Alpha Omega here with a deadly one on Trouble On Vinyl - Klash VIP is all about the not-so-happy hardcore stab riff, steppy drums and some heavy junglism flavours - it looks like the man is back with a new album too this month which is great news, “Return To The 9th Level” is the title and it’s out now on AKO Beats, big up the @stretch_ako Stretch once again! - swipe for the clip - TOV48 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #alphaomega #klash #klashvip #vip #troubleonvinyl #herecomestrouble #2002 #akobeats https://www.instagram.com/p/B-aGJiTCGm9/?igshid=15rpwir6o3rzy

This one’s an absolute meanie - Universal Project’s debut on their own label, Bleach is a tension mounter with those somewhat anime sounding female vox and some eerie vibes before a tough drop cashes in - the Project are still going today albeit as a solo effort from the one like the Ruxspin but their manifesto lives on as call for tough n’ heavy d’n’b (as it should be!) - swipe for the clip - UPR001 ... #dailydnb #dnb #drumnbass #drumandbass #jungle #techstep #jumpup #rollers #neurofunk #liquidfunk #dnbdj #dnbproducer #dnbarchive #historyofdnb #dnbnation #dnbfamily #universalproject #bleach #2001 #ruxspin #meanie https://www.instagram.com/p/B-XdIxIiu6k/?igshid=1nch9gi9k8brv

Roni Size’s Fashion has always been a big tune, I’m surprised they didn’t rework it since the original remix - although I’ve heard a Firefox remix that never made it out - man, I’m telling ya, Roni is sitting on a STACK of dubs! That one may never see the light of day but at least we have the original to enjoy - check the sample: Papa Face feat.

Super chill strings n’ pads from Double T aka Trace and Pete Parsons (Voyager) - Nightwave is part of the Promised Land compilation on Higher Limits - something to just sit back n’ blaze to if that’s your thing - sure not going out clubbing tonight anyway!

Fresh homegrown 🇳🇿 action from the one like the Habit @stuhabit today - the man has a 2-tracker out now on Program and it’s something else - an 80’s inspired tension builder brings in a grumpy reese bass before the switch into a funky drummer break and a hook that sounds like it came out of a 90’s video game! This is one to be heard, go cop it in your usual ways! Always awesome to hear NZ d’n’b making noise up there on the big labels!

Amen tear out from DJ Stretch aka The Guyver on Reinforced featuring a cheeky Brandy sample - I first heard this when @48sonic smashed it together with Lemon D’s This Is L.A. on radioactive one day LONG ago!
