FEATURING
INK
(Meatalheadz, Outbreak, Renegade Hardware, Horsemen - UK)
First begins the Pirate Radio Circuit, working hard at his craft, allowing the followers to get familiar with the roll, steadlily bookings began to build up and soon it would be time for Ink to become associated with three names that changed the landscape of British electronic music-and they were Basement Records, and slightly later Metalheadz and Renegade Hardware
If your familiar with drum n bass/jungle you'll know instantly the weight these labels carry, and if you are not by just scratching the surface you'll become aware of the work they have done, Hardware, and Metalheadz are two commitments Dj Ink has upheld to this day, through thick and thin, engraved in the wall of time...
Essential work includes "The 50th (Blueprint)"on Basement Records, 'Feel da heat' taken from the LP 'Can u draw sound?' on Architecture Recordings, 'Kaos Theory Ep' on Renegade Hardware, 'Shine' on Metalheadz, and the now infamous posse cut 'Instinct' Also on Architecture, this is just a small fraction by Ink that has made waves...
A SIDES
(Eastside Records, Metalheadz, Bingo - UK)
A Sides has been producing music since 1990 and has released over 500 tracks to date. He established his own label Eastside Records in 1996 and since then has remained a consistent figure within the drum and bass scene.

MARCUS VISIONARY
(Digial Soundboy / Dance Rock - CA)
Marcus Visionary has been in the music game for almost two decades. In 1995 Marcus linked up with Dave 'Nemesis' Whalen who was known around the city as a great engineer and budding producer. The partnership became known as Visionary and they continue to work on music today. Early signings came for L Doubles Flex Records. 'Acid flex' was one of their first releases and was definately reminisent of their love of acid house and detroit techno. Visionary continued on with a few more releases for Flex Records and Toronto's own vinyl Syndicate throughout the late 90's early 2000 but it was'nt until Marcus decided to go full time in 2005 that Visionary would truly be born. As of 2005 Visionary celebrated releases on a variety of dnb's premiere labels: Digital Soundboy, 31 Records, Revolver, T.O.V, Xtinction Agenda, Play Musik, Horizon, Shout, Flex, On Point, Hustlin Beats, Co-Lab, Pure Vibes etc. As well as their own labels Dance Rock, Lion Dubs, and Rocksteady.

INFILTRATA Special Dubstep Set
(Smog Records / Basshead Music / Argon / 10 Bag Records - USA)
Infiltrata gives us a ridiculous look at what one of the killah producer/DJs of the TekDubz camp has on his mind musically as of late and ohhh my goodness if this is not one bad fukkin' mix I don't know what is. In the words of Kanye West and the Game, "That's that Crack Music". Living, Eating, Sleeping and of course Shittin' drum n bass, the passion of one of the music's most gifted artist comes through loud and clear on this mix. From the jump he gets his fellow TekDubz soldiers, Mental Sharp (MC Armanni and MC Sharpness), to blaze a "Kingdome Come Freestyle" and flips it drum n bass style.
If you are gonna rip from one of the best MCs ever, Jay-Z, you better do it properly and Infiltrata and the boys do this remix justice like that blind chick holding the scales!!! Photek's remix of Tubby T's, "Ready She Ready" is such a massive dropping tune while "Big Shutdown" brings together Mason, D*Star and Focus with a classic Groovrider radio interview sample (it is hilarious if you know the back story).
Capital J, the highly decorated and acclaimed scratch/turntablist DJ, lends his skill to the mix, by gracing some top flight cutting and scratching over the Intiltrata & Limewax tune "Ethio", BLAAAAZIN'!!! Closing out the mix, Infiltrata gives us a sneak peak at the Infiltrata feat. MC DRE & MC XYZ tune, "Always Fitted Fresh" forthcoming on Jayvon's label, Sugar Coded Records. Front, back, side to side in the words of Dave Chappelle playing Rick James, Infiltrata's mix is "cold as ice"!!!!!
TRILL BASS w/ DJ LORD of PUBLIC ENEMY
(Trillbass Recordings / Shift Recordings / Ruff Recordings / Public Enemy - USA)
From the corner to the block, the members of Trill Bass have been putting it down for years. This hard hitting group has one shared life mission: to produce and deliver hard hitting, head banging, chest romping BASS to the masses.

The common thread between the group is a respect and understanding of music origins and desire and know how to shape where it will go next.
A Trill Bass show is like nothing you have ever seen, hype scratching, sick mixing, and an added flair that you don’t get with just any “Club DJ” set. Mixing and matching all genres of music to create the perfect setting for a party. Put your cups up and enjoy the show.. Its Time for Trill Bass.
