SUNANDBASS Podcast

The 70th SUNANDBASS Podcast comes from DJ, producer, and Spearhead label head BCee.

Having released over 100 tracks and remixes over 4 albums, and countless other releases since his debut in 2002, it’s fair to say that BCee has made a huge contribution to the Drum & Bass scene.

Alongside this epic body of work, his label Spearhead continues to grow from strength to strength, having bought artists such as SPY, Technimatic, Hybrid Minds and LSB, amongst countless others to the fore.

BCee brings something a bit special to this month’s SUNANDBASS Podcast, with a mix of only his music – whether his originals, remixes of his tracks or tracks that he has remixed. He had this to say about it: ‘I wanted to do something different so I’ve given you 90 minutes of tracks that I've produced / remixed / had remixed etc. It's something that I've never done in 17 years of releasing music!’

We hope you enjoy BCee’s SUNANDBASS Podcast!

@djlee is a name synonymous with quality. Known as one of the key tastemakers within the scene since the early 90s, he built up his standing and craft with residencies at some of the finest events in the land, namely Fabio and Bukem’s ‘Speed’ and the infamous Metalheadz Blue Note Sessions.

He’s also no stranger to the world of production, having released tunes on labels such as Metalheadz, Metro, 31 and Advanced in the Drum & Bass world, and also for the legendary Watergate, the Berlin based house and techno label.

Although never stepping away from the music, or losing his love for it, he held back on the DJing for some time, but luckily 2017 saw him return to the fray, and the future now promises plenty more of DJ Lee, something music should definitely be grateful for!

And here he is with nearly 90 minutes of goodness for the SUNANDBASS Podcast. A fine blend of old and new, light and smooth, it’s a perfect start to 2018.

September’s 2017 SUNANDBASS Podcast comes from a scene stalwart. He’s a producer, DJ and promoter who has put in some serious miles to help shape the musical Drum & Bass scene into what it is today – this is Ben Soundscape.

Initially making his names as part of Bristol based duo ‘The Insiders’ in the early 2000s, Ben and production partner Joe signed tracks with almost every single heavy hitting label in the scene to great fanfare.

Alongside producing tracks, he runs his label ‘Intrigue Music’ that he set up in 2009 – an imprint that has become known for showcasing some of the biggest names in the scene, alongside numerous fresh up and coming talents. The label is run alongside and named after his infamous night ‘Intrigue’ in Bristol, one of the UK’s best-known and respected events.

With all this hard work put in for many years, we’re very happy to welcome Ben Soundscape to the SUNANDBASS Podcast – check it out!
