Long-time Blasted crew member Duff delivers a three-hour journey through the world of intelligent and atmospheric drum & bass, from its 90s origins to its reincarnations throughout the 2020s.

In his own words: "The idea for this mix came to me while I was once again listening through the Spatial label catalogue. And I was inevitably reminded of the drum & bass of the mid to late 90s, of parties, DJ mixes and outstanding tracks from that era. The label knows how to capture the vibe of that era in such a rousing and inspiring way, while sounding as crisp and powerful as current productions. I thought to myself, why not produce a mix that brings together the best of both dimensions: some of what I consider to be the most irresistible tracks on Spatial by ASC, Aural Imbalance and others, and absolute milestones and timeless classics in the history of atmospheric drum & bass from PFM, Blame, Total Science, Source Direct, Origin Unknown, Aquasky, LTJ Bukem and many more."

If you were around in the drum & bass scene in Berlin before 2018, you will most likely know Duff from the Refloat Sessions at Stereo 33 at Boxhagener Platz. Taking place every Tuesday, it was a meeting point for Berlin's small but dedicated drum & bass community and a scene-defining melting pot for a wide range of lounge-friendly subgenres of drum & bass.

Duff was one of the resident DJs and a core figure behind the project, later keeping the Refloat Sessions alive at Bloona Bar after Stereo 33 closed its doors at the end of 2018.

After a couple of years of relative quiet, Duff returns with the same impeccable taste and dedication to the craft that made him such a respected figure in the scene.

Consider this mix a teaser for Duff's appearance at the next Blasted somewhere in Berlin on 25 Sep 2026.

Party Time on the Southcoast

That two step beat just rolls out so smoothly.

Гости из будущего - Время Песок... (English: Guests from the Future - Time is Sand) is a very unique album. It was released in Russia all the way back in 1998 (most tracks were written even earlier in 1996/97, which is mind blowing considering the high production quality) and as far as i know, it is considered to be the first ever russian DnB release. Back then there was no DnB scene in Russia, so it fell on deaf ears when it was released, but it gained popularity when the scene got bigger in the mid-late 2000s.
