QFT!

Love the label - only bought a small handful of DNB this year, amongst which was your first two releases.

Keep em coming, and keep the quality control sky high!

(so, about that night you guys are putting on...)

Well for a start... Me haha! Nah only dreamin matey!
Definitely Instra:Mental, would love to hear what they have to offer live. Anyone who has quite a dark experimental/atmospheric side to them. Fanu, Equinox, Break, Breakage, Fierce, to name a few juicy ones hehe!
MC wise I've never really been that bothered about an MC, people dance regardless. However if I had to recommend one dude it'd be SP:MC. Seen him at a few club nights and he was on form! He also did a mix recently with Break & Fierce for ATM magazine which is on of the best mixes I've heard in a while for that type of DnB!
Hope I haven't bored you to death with my ranting! Speak to ye soon matey! :D

As for MCs? I say leave it out! The tracks on the label are strong enough to stand on their own.

I for one prefer to get lost in sound that to hear the perpetual babbling of an MC over deep, atmospheric beats.

Ahh Seba! Completely forgot about that absolute legend! Oh and Naphta, please please please, one of the only dudes keeping oldskool jungle going! Don! :)

So since me and Citizen are feeding you some sweet ideas I take it we're on the guestlist :wink: Im sure Citizen would agree hehe!

I reckon MC's can be ok but its just shuttin them up what can be the problem! As long as they don't sound like Bill n Ben under water, and just plain stay quiet for most of the time Im happy.
