One of the fun things about this show is zooming in on cities around the country and meeting the people behind the scenes that keep this music alive and relevant in their communities.

I try to learn as much as I can about each weeks guest to write their introduction. After speaking with his friends and seeing the warmth of his family I can confirm, everyone loves him! He's a damn sweetheart. While Brian raved in DC and Virginia for a period (I still can't believe we didn't meet each other when we were kids!), he's been a part of DNB communities all around the country.

The American Junglist ·

2026/01/13

For the next few weeks we will get to talk about Jacksonville Drum n Bass! It's hard not to say a lot because Jax has such a vibrant DNB culture going back over 25 years now.

His crew (JAX DNB) is an institution not only in Florida but the East Coast and abroad. Their influence can not be overstated. He is a fan of this music, a producer, DJ, and a promoter.

The American Junglist ·

2026/01/06

For his second mix in this series, Jeff recreates his winning set from the 2nd round of the Black Box Denver DNB battle. "Leading up to this show someone had to drop off the lineup last minute, which gave each contestant 80 minutes. I was stoked to have double the length of the previous battle so I could go a bit deeper. This mix runs through all of the DNB and Jungle Flavors I love with plenty of twists and turns along the way. Much love out to The American Junglist for showcasing my 2025 battle

He's back! Jeff has become a show favorite over the last year or so and we love having him on. This will be the first set of a 3 part series we will be hosting over the next few weeks.

I met this weeks guest at a festival we were playing at last year. She had just finished her set and she was really excited! Her energy and enthusiasm were really cool. we swapped stickers and when I asked her name she said "everyone calls me "Ravemom" She's one of those awesome rave people that looks after her crew and keeps an eye out for everybody really. Her house, called "Kandi Land Underground" is INCREDIBLE. For people that love rave people and this culture, it's like a museum. Amy's house is

The American Junglist ·

2025/11/18

The first time I became aware of Nate( Souljunk), he was doing a dnb set at a waterpark and I remember thinking how awesome it would be to DJ at a waterpark and eat free hotdogs all day. That was 3 or 4 years ago now? The time is flying. Since then I talk to Nate pretty often and I've become a fan of his music and him as a human. He's a total vibe.The last time he was in Orlando I got to meet his friend Parker (Raydium) and can confirm, also a good human and a vibe when they came to play for Claudia

Personally, my favorite DJ's are the ones that have a dedication to the craft. I'm pretty sure this weeks guest would be making mixtapes anyway. Even if nobody knew who she was. Her influence on American Bass Music culture can not be overstated. Her labels, Play Me and Play Me Too are known for a steady stream of dance floor bangers and have been for years. From Omen to LMNOP to Dialective, She has her finger on the pulse of our culture. She's a premium selector and a fucking wicked DJ. Please
