In this episode I'm joined by a legend whose name is stamped into the foundations of jungle and drum & bass. DJ Hype is one of the true originals a DJ, producer, label boss, and tastemaker who helped shape not just the sound, but the attitude of the culture.

From discipline and personal growth to the evolution of Djing and MCing, this was a wicked conversation with two artists that truly deserve their legendary status
