This week, we have a guest mix by a producer we met here in Dresden. From a city called Hamburg only few hundred kilometers away, we bring you The Next (Wob Wob / Hamburg, Germany). 

TH3 NEXT grew up in East Germany, where he was heavily influenced by Hip Hop and it’s culture. Since then, his passion continued to be DJing, and after a spectacular escape from the GDR it was finally time for two turntables.

In 2000, he started to produce his own beats with an MPC2000XL, with a computer running other software completing his setup. He performed alongside various artists such as Rasco, Alies, Antipop, Consortium and Motion Man as well as supporting his friend DJ Fu (founder of the DRUMBULE Hamburg).

Heavily influenced by the emerging Dubstep and Grime scene, they, along with MC Mindfuck, decided to introduce this relatively unknown genre of music known as DUBSTEP to the people of Hamburg.

NXT LVL was then born and took place once a month at the ASTRASTUBE and a year later, they started another regular Dubstep event, called “WOBWOB!”. Together with Deneh, Yann Ignition and The Vinylizer, they have played host to many international guests including N-TYPE, TES LA ROK, SKREAM, HEADHUNTER and LUKE ENVOY.

Many thanks to THE NEXT for this Kongkast!

More info about The Next:
TH3 NEXT: Whilst growing up in East Germany, he was infected with Hip Hop after watching the movie “Beat Street”. His passion continued to be DJing, and after a spectacular escape from the GDR it was finally time for two turntables.

In 2000, 10 years after starting out, he started to produce his own beats with an MPC2000XL, with a computer running other software completing his setup. He performed alongside various artists such as Rasco, Alies, Antipop, Consortium and Motion Man as well as supporting his friend DJ Fu (founder of the DRUMBULE Hamburg) with some slick scratches during DnB sets. It was at the DRUMBULE where he got to know JNS (Phokus) who, at that time, still produced Drum & Bass. Heavily influenced by the emerging Dubstep and Grime scene, they, along with MC Mindfuck, decided to introduce this relatively unknown genre of music known as DUBSTEP to the people of Hamburg.

NXT LVL was then born and took place once a month at the ASTRASTUBE and a year later, they started another regular Dubstep event, called “WOBWOB!”. Together with Deneh, Yann Ignition and The Vinylizer, they have played host to many international guests including N-TYPE, TES LA ROK, SKREAM, HEADHUNTER and LUKE ENVOY.

He is the founder of Airbourne crew, back in early 2002 in Sydney was pushing the sounds of drum & bass of all forms to the Sydney masses. Originally focusing on atmospheric drum & bass, í97 jazzy styles in their Airbourne Sunday Sessions, Airbourne also ran their monthly drum & bass nights Momentum, their infamous Old Skool Jungle parties played host to Calibre & Shapeshifter (NZ) 1st parties ever in Sydney town… fast forward to now and though retired from promoting, he has not lost his passion for the music.

Though primarily known as a drum & bass / Old Skool Jungle Dj his other musical passions is downtempo / jazz, broken beat and also bass music.. influences ranging from Sam Cooke, John Coltrane, Cinematic Orchestra, Bonobo, Gilles Peterson, LTJ Bukem, Synkro & Calibre.

Whether he is playing a downtempo, old skool jungle or a bass music set it’s all about creating a musical journey with ebbs and flows creating an emotional response to the musical experience. When it comes to rocking the clubs plays the music as if he was on the dancefloor and not all just in his head… dance with the heart and not just the feet.

More info about Brian Brainstorm:

Brian Brainstorm from Cologne, Germany is a 28 year old Jump Up Drum & Bass- producer / DJ with releases on the german labels Bassliebe, Phantom Dub Digital and Hooverbass, supported by international artists like Dub Bezerker, Shrust, Carbon, Bukez Finezt, Dirty Deeds, Ravager, Dexcell, Landing Force, Downlink, Paul Van Dyk and many more.

He started producing in 2009 and first made a lasting impression on the Bassmusic scene with a wide range of different styles on 105, 140 and 175 beats per minute. But his increasing fascination for Drum & Bass caused his decision to focus only on this genre. His tunes became more ravey and powerful and got supported by some well-known selectors. In 2012 he got signed on the biggest german labels for Jump Up DnB, Phantom Dub Digital and Hooverbass Records.
For 2013 a few releases are already confirmed on the UK labels DoubleUV & Roll The Drums Recordings, expect some big bangers aswell as some deep tunes!

Since he started spinning tunes on stage he already played his energetic and heavy Jump Up sets on the biggest local events alongside artists like Bredren, Ricky Tuff, Lost, 50 Carrot, Eddie K to name just a few.
