In Beta and ting and ting...
Right you lot, we had a little time out with the Dj of the Month, but now its back and better than ever! We'll be running this competition monthly, and our lucky winners will bag themselves a £10 credit to use in our shop, as well as having their mix published on our podcast page indefinitely and their DJ biog on this page!
Well, with all that said, over the transitional period we have still been receiving mixes, and there were a few outstanding mixes that we thought were really good hence we already have our first winner...
August 2008
Hailing from the Garden of England, Badger fills his new home Southampton with the sweet smell of DnB.
His taste in audio varies across the board, sweet sounds of Hospital and Soul R especially and has a new found liking for dirty beats produced from labels like Freak Recs and Shogun Audio. More of Badgers favourite genres include Funk and good UK Hip Hop.
When it comes to ‘dabbling on the decks’, Badger likes straight up mixing, with occasional cross over to Hip Hop and throws in a nice cut for good measure.
Other than DJ-ing, Badger combines myriad talents, designing web banners and animation, club visuals for major nights/DJs, video editing and photography, with his layback and approachable style. Working as a freelancer has allowed Badger to offer his skills to many different people and he is currently creating a website – misterbadger.co.uk – to showcase his portfolio.
In his spare time, Badger brings the rain to COD4, has a regular DJing spot and partakes in the odd bottle of chilled European export. Badger also enjoys a joint role in the infamous Southampton based UnderGrowth collective.
Well, I don't like badgers, I generally eat them for breakfast, but they do put on some good parties in the woods every now and then. Full respect for this mix though, pretty pretty good, especially the hip-hop mid section... that was big! But stay out my way Badger! Grrrr...

So this is the score, if you'd like to enter all you need to do is send in your mix to us which needs to be around 45mins long, drum and bass or dubstep (naturally), including a short biog about yourself and a picture.
To be considered for that month please get your entries in by the 14th. The best mix wins. Best of luck and we look forward to listening to your entries!!!
