Club Invaders by Djs Squash, Trito and Mineral was one of the most dancefloor oriented drum’n’bass clubs back in 2003 in Finland. I actually had a little chat with Squash & Trito last friday about bringing the club back alive. I’m not gonna promise anything yet, but maybe we will see a comeback of the club in the Future.

THE INVADERS SPIRIT LIVES: DJ MIX BY SQUASH

I’d like to honour the “Invaders spirit” by linking this DJ mix by Squash AKA Kesämies. It’s very Invaders stylish mix that is recorded back in 2002 🙂 Check it out:

Finally, some more memories from 2003 when we had Genki as our special guest, check the flyer:

It’s time to present a fresh Drum’n’bass track from an extremely potential young talent, Puzzle. The atmosphere is very special in this Free Track of The Week #9, “Kumoi”.

Puzzle – Kumoi (FREE!) by Puzzle

Puzzle alias Juho Kavasto is a young talent from Finland. Being only 15 years at the moment, Puzzle has an excellent future as a Drum’n’bass artist. Several labels are already interested in his production, which is not surprising: simply listen to this guy’s tracks and be amazed of the tight drum’s and the deep basslines.

Keep an eye for Puzzle’s production, as I’m sure he will break big time in the future!

The Kongocrew 10-years celebration was a real success last Friday. Many d’n’b heads from Finland gathered together in this very special event. I had a blast performing a B2B DJ-set with Quadra from Defence. It was a pleasure to meet so many friends and new faces too. Thanks to all the people who attended! Also, massive props to Esc & DBLJ for arranging this event. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.

The new Free Track of The Week will be up tomorrow… It’s gonna be really good, so check back tomorrow!
