#13 - DJ Flight

Calling DJ Flight a legend would be an understatement. She is widely regarded as one of the foundations of Drum & Bass. Flight is a DJ, Radio Producer, Mentor and Podcaster hailing from the UK. To name all her accomplishments, we would have to write a book.

It therefore is no surprise that we are excited to see her on the line-up of Curated by Coco Bryce on Saturday the 27th of May at Melkweg. Tune in for a very entertaining conversation about her past, constant battle for equality and passion for music. 

#12 - Thys

On Friday the 31st of March 'Curated by' hosts the VISION labelnight at Melkweg. In the run-up to the party we had a chat with labelboss Thys about his post Noisia career. We talked about his EP 'Shoulder to Shoulder', his hunger for clubmusic, production collabs, AI and producing a flamenco album. Tune in for an indepth conversation with one of the most skilled and creative producers around!

#11 - Kasra

2022 marks 20 years of Critical Music! To celebrate this milestone, Curated by hosts the final leg of the Critical XX Club Tour on Friday the 23rd of December. In the run-up to the party we had a chat with label boss Kasra. For this podcast, Kasra selected his favorite 20 tracks released on Critical Music to elaborate on. Based on these tracks Kasra tells his story. 'How did the collaboration come to be?' 'What moved you to sign this track?' 'What are the hurdles you have come across running a label?' These are all examples of questions that cross the board during this hour long conversation with this legend. Let's dig deep...

#10 - Lenzman

In the run-up to The North Quarter labelnight during Amsterdam Dance Event we had a chat with labelboss Lenzman. We talk about his teen years in Leiden, discovering Hip Hop and becoming a rapper. His life changed when he discovered drum and bass during his trips to England. It was the beginning of a success story. From doing a tour in Asia with only one release to being one of the key figures in the scene. It is and has been an interesting ride. Tune in!

SP:MC is the first MC to feature in a Curated by Podcast. We sat down with Stew and had a long and in depth conversation about his passion and development as an artist and label owner. From mix tapes to mix cd's, his breakthrough thanks to MC GQ, touring the globe with Friction, fusing drum & bass and dubstep in a garage framework and much more. Enjoy!
