I would just like to soy that, first of all, Itonyand read a number of publications covering a wide range ol interests and subjects. I am therefore something of an "expert" on magazines in general.

If you're good, it only takes one crate of records to create a killer set. So let's see what's in your crate, then. This month: Breakbeat Science part-owner and renowned DJ DB. By Elysha Lenkin. On Manhattan's renascent Lower East Side, DB takes a break from the rigors of t Beat Science record shop which he part owns, and crouches down on the front s record comes on, moving a couple of guys inside the store to hysterics. Separate glass window, DB begins motioning at them in DJ sign language. Finally his voice "It would be a good track if it wasn't a 'Horizons' rip off." That's DB's job in a nutshell—to d originality from a cheap replica, in instance, the difference between tt Bukem classic "Horizons" from a ci vogue imitation. As a prime New Yo and an ASR rep for Sm:)e Records, acronym for his true name, not the pseudonym for drum 'n' bass) lister records all day long hoping to pick ner. He's also got his hand in the st to produce a few winners of his owi "Bitch Trip" for the Nu Emotion EP Currently, he's working on two new collaboration with DJ Dara on a rerr Right In," to be released on the Nu School compilation, and a remix of • group Dog Eat Dog featuring guest • RZA of Wu-Tang Clan. DB's most influential jungle tracks 90- '07 4 Hero - "Mr. Kirks Nightmare" (Reinforced) Every Friday night, DB gets to dis| fruits of his labors during his weekl most unlikely venue for jungle, the I house mecca Twilo. This upscale clu appreciates his aggressive, techno-i flavor much more than the typical r. drum 'n' bass headz who usually tur his gigs. Lately, DB finds playing at 2 Bad Mice - "Wheremouse" (Moving Shadow) Origin Unknown • "Valley of the Shadows" (Ram) Omni Trio - "Renegade Snares" (Moving Shadow) Deep Blue • "The Helicopter Tune" (Moving Shadow) Goldie - "Timeless" (Metalheadz) humiliating, because the kids end up sitting in the middle of the dancefloor. DJs visiting from overseas are especially mortified. "I'm sick of the rave scene where kids just want to get away from their parents and use the party as an excuse to get as messed up as possiPhotek • "Complex" (PhoteK) ble," he explains. Some kids even make their way over to the DJ booth to comment, 'Have you got anything good to play or anything to dance to?'" LTJ Bukem • "Horizons" (Good Looking) Adam F - "Metropolis" (Metalheadz) Doc Scott - "Shadow Boxing" (3!) The reply: "Not for you." Which tracks does the man himself prefer? DB thinks that the best jungle love songs are by Everything But the Girl. But when he wants to seduce his lady, he'll put on "One and Only" by PFM. To open up minds on the dancefloor (also referred to as clearing the dancefloor) he'll try anything from Photek. And if he wants to freak out a mental patient he'll throw on a loop of Wu-Tang Clan. Although jungle lies closest to his heart at the moment, DB doesn't view himself simply as a one-style DJ. Yet with so many jungly styles to choose from, it's difficult to resist. "The rest of music just isn't as interesting," he states. "If jungle got monotonous then I'd switch, but jungle is more musical, so people are more passionate [about the music]." http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/ufc49h00/pdf 2070646973 Photography by Kristin Bcline
