The missus and I would be at Sun & Bass now, which is a very special occasion for us every year. This mix captures the vibe, we´re missing so very much.

„If Corona hadn´t happened …“ is the most frequently heard sentence this summer. By and large this playlist was my first set to play in front of a live audience after the longest pause in over 20 years. It was an outdoor event with a festival feel, but everyone had to keep distancing and wasn´t allowed to dance. That´s what I mean by „Schroedinger´s Summer“. The strange way, that it seems to be there, but at the same time, it´s not.

The mix expresses all last months lightheartedness, the hopes and wishes, and also the sadness, tense anticipation and shattered dreams. It´s been a tough time for each and everyone. Music can be soothing and healing. I tried to create an emotional arc that can have this effect on you.

Drum’n’Bass & JungleMyom feiert seinen Geburtstag mit Bass, Beats und hoffentlich einigem an Sonne. Diesmal kommt hauptsächlich Drum´n´Bass & Jungle der entspannteren Sorte auf die Plattenteller. Good vibes for tough times!

Die Veranstaltung findet in Kooperation mit Exhaus / Trier und Mergener Hof im Rahmen des Projekts KULTURGRABEN statt.

This is my second exploration into the 170 bpm fusion of drum´n´bass with dub techno, ambient and dub. It´s bass music primarily for listening and imaginary dancefloors. Since we currently have to make do with mind traveling, I thought I create a little helper. It surely takes you away someplace, if you give in to it, it´s quite cinematic.

The first one from 2017 proved to be a timeless mix for which I continue to receive favorable feedback. This one is even more laid back and further away from the mainstream idea of what Drum´n´Bass is supposed to be. I have written a few words accompanying the first mix, which are still valid for the sequel, so if you´re interested in the sound and the concept, check that out.

I´m very happy to have found a way to prominently include a track by Rhythm & Sound, who are obviously a great inspiration for this whole affair. The sound I´m searching for here is also a neighbor of tribal halftime dnb, which was actually hard to keep out of the selection, because it works well on a certain level, but at the same it is mostly very dark and also too upfront (I have actually compiled a second playlist as a sequel to my Tribalizm mix from 10 years ago, so that might come up next.) I also tried to steer away from Ambient dnb tracks that just arent Dub enough.

With this mix I return to my „Original Dubbah“-series of dubwise Drum´n´Bass sets. This selection is dedicated to tracks with thick dub atmospheres, vocal echoes, chord delays, washed out horns over heavy basslines and rolling breakbeats. I chose consistency over variety in my selection to capture a specific sound and let it flow for an hour.

The mixes of the „Original Dubbah“-series have been very popular a few years back. I got feedback from all over the world, quite a few bookings for that style, reuploads happened quite a few and someone even recreated the playlist on Youtube. This one was originally just a playlist I made for myself, but then it became something I wanted to share. And it must be mentioned that it includes a few classics by Marcus and Spirit, who were also true masters of this particular sound. Their music lives on.

I started compiling possible playlists for the „Summertime Madness Open Air“ of our club villaWuller, but as I will go for a different vibe for that gig, I spontaneously recorded the mix, because it seemed to be worth it.

It starts around 160 bpm and speeds up in the second half up to 174 bpm for the last tracks, so it´s footwork, jungle & classic dnb. My starting point were actually the last two tracks and Rashad´s, because they sample „Summer Madness by Kool & the Gang. So from then on, my selection was geared towards a laid back vibe, kinda classic 90s, many 70s funk & soul samples, lush epianos and synths, many hip hop-influences.

It spans from the mid-90s until today and contains a lot of personal favorites that I have a special connection with. So there are a few tracks that I already used in a previous mix, which is something I strictly avoided until now. But as this mix wasn´t planned for recording, there they were, right in the middle of the playlist and I thought, what the heck, noone cares but me.

Usually I dont publish very spontaneous mixes like this, but I will probably change my general attitude towards putting out more, but less „perfect“ mixes. I have so many playlists that I never recorded, because I always thought I want to work on them some more, but never did. I think I should change to a more frequent rate and as this mix shows, I sure can without sacrificing quality.

One more thing: The intro was made from an interview with Congo Natty some time back. I´ve used it live a few times and I needed something to make the start of the mix a bit more interesting, so I just used it for that.

Pionier, Schlüsselfigur, Wegbereiter: DJ Lee hat als Resident legendärer Clubnächte in London Drum´n´Bass-Geschichte geschrieben. Lees Sets haben einen exzellenten Ruf, sind immer innovativ, cutting edge und mit exklusiven Dubplates gespickt. Selten erlebt man, wie ein DJ so gekonnt seine Soundästhetik verfolgt und die Crowd über mehrere Stunden mitnimmt.

Intime Club-Settings, wie in der Villa, liegen ihm sehr und er hat richtig Bock, für euch zu spielen. Kommt also früh genug, damit ihr nicht vor der Tür warten müsst.

— mehr Infos:

Etwas Generelles zu unseren DJ-Gästen: Wer als Produzent gute Tracks raushaut, bringt´s nicht automatisch auch als DJ im Club. DJing ist eine eigene Kunstform, besonders als Live-Performance. Wir suchen exzellente DJs für unser Events und picken die Diamanten aus dem Kiesbett.

Unser Publikum besteht sowohl aus Drum´n´Bass-Kennern und auch Gelegenheitsravern. Alle sollen bei uns erleben, was richtig gute DJ-Sets mit dir anstellen können. Darum geht es bei tempo90 und der villa: Music without the bullshit. Eine Haltung, die auch Lee absolut verkörpert:

Lee ist einer der wenigen, die es vermocht haben, sich vor allem mit ihren DJ-Skills unter den „großen Namen“ der Drum&Bass Szene in England und weltweit zu behaupten. Er ist eine der Schlüsselfiguren der ersten Stunde: Zu Anfang spielte er in den Brunel Rooms in Swindon mit DJs, wie Doc Scott, Fabio, Grooverider und LTJ Bukem. Schnell wurde er in Clubs im ganzen Land gebucht.

Er wurde Resident zweier legendärer Clubnächte Londons, die für die Drum´n´Bass-Geschichte von zentraler Bedeutung sind: LTJ Bukem und Fabio holten ihn nach Soho in den Mars Club zu Speed. Diese Clubnacht wurde schnell zum Mekka für Fans dieser damals neuen und aufregenden Undergroundmusik und verhalf ihr überhaupt zum Durchbruch.

Die nächste Etappe für Lee waren die von Goldie geleiteten Metalheadz Sessions im Blue Note Club. Diese wurden zur geistigen Heimat des Drum´n Bass, wo jede Woche bahnbrechende Musik gespielt wurde und underground-affine Mega-Stars, wie David Bowie und Björk, zu den Stammgästen zählten. Dass Lee auch dort als Resident DJ den Sound der Zeit prägte, zementierte seinen Ruf weiter und er konnte rund um die Welt touren. In London legt er heute regelmäßig bei den von Bailey geleiteten Soul in Motion Nights auf.

Als Wegbereiter des Drum´n Bass gilt er auch aufgrund seiner wichtigen Rolle bei Timeless Recordings und eigener Labelprojekte (Atlas Recordings). Als Producer hat er sich insbesondere in Zusammenarbeit mit D.Kay einen respektablen Namen gemacht. Die beiden sind für einige Klassiker (z. B. ‚Wax’d‘, ‚Tuning‘, ‚Desire‘ ) auf Labels wie Hospital, Metalheadz, 31, C.I.A. u.a. verantwortlich. Mit Marcus Intalex (R.I.P.) zusammen veröffentlichte er als „Sideways“ Techno bei Watergate Recordings. Die beiden pfleg(t)en eine enge Verbundenheit zur Berliner Technoszene.

Bei unserer Residents-Night in der villaWuller letztes Jahr im April habe ich im Warmup gespielt und dabei auch die Record-Taste getätigt. Garniert mit ein paar Klassikern kommt die 22. Ausgabe des Boom Tschak-Podcasts mit einem knapp einstündigen Querschnitt aus Lieblings-Tracks und dem angesagte Drum’n’Bass der Stunde.
