    Come check out my newest DrumnBass tune "The King Is Back" recently added to the player. It features a collection of samples from various Michael Jackson songs and is sort of my little tribute to him from a dnb standpoint. If you're a fan you'll def enjoy this track. Leave some love if you like what you hear, it's always appreciated. =) Cheers!

    Here is the next one, woohoo!


    This is the third year of the annual junglecode 420 event, and with the global economy in the tank, we had our doubts about the feasibility of doing another one. Well, with a LOT of help from our friends at PROJECT 51 and SHELTER, we are so happy to bring back GRIDLOK all the way from Los Angeles to headline the show on Tuesday, April 21 at Underground SF in San Francisco.

    We hear you loud and clear: You want world-class drum&bass for cheap! How does five bucks sound? It will sound awesome!!!

    As one of the world’s top drum and bass dj/producers, Gridlok has left a legacy of releases on many of the most regarded labels in the scene. His work ethic and tireless efforts to advance the sonic breadth of the music have yielded tremendous dividends for drum and bass fans worldwide.

    He'll arrive with a bag of fresh tunes that you will not hear anywhere else, mixed flawlessly for your dancing pleasure.

    Also on deck for this special event:
