'The Gene Pool' is Reed Smith (aka dj q:up aka Reed Rock // Rudebwoy Rendezvous // Giant 45) & Aaron Smith (aka dj falone // Whitebird), a dj duo and more importantly, brothers with a very strong, mutual passion for quality drum and bass / jungle.
This passion is a hobby, a job, and a lifestyle; at times consuming but never stagnent, constantly evolving as the genre does itself. From the intimate and interactive locations they play, to the influential artists that inspire their sound, these 'smith boys' have a very sound vision.
If we can touch but one person, we have changed the world...we love to hear from you, so drop us a quick shout and stay tuned in for the future is what we make it...
