Read about The 780 Project

For the 8th edition of my Squat Rocking series of mixes dedicated to the sound of the UK free/squat party scene, I decided to shake things up a little. The previous instalments have covered the core sounds of the scene: acid techno/trance and hard techno, but with this mix I wanted to tip my hat to dark drum n’ bass, a crucial element of the free party scene back when I was a regular attendee in the late 90’s/early 00’s. The drum n’ bass dj’s on the free party scene regularly aired some of the nastiest, filthiest, most gruesome tunes … perfect sounds for stomping about to in a gloomy warehouse! I’ve tried very hard to capture that vibe in this mix, which covers 15 of some of the most no-holds barred techstep bangers in my collection. Enjoy!
