DNB Tactics released their seventh mix and this time they’re evolving their format with the introduction of guests, and the first guest is Bristol’s Sound Tactix aka Nick Cashmore.

As I’ve said before when posting on these mixes, the tracklists are usually awash with names that I’ve never heard of but each time I’m introducing to a whole host of exciting producers and they serve as my monthly liquid drum and bass fix.

We’re old, old friends with the Tactics guys and it’s nice to see our love for Tottenham Hotspurs has made it into the intro — Arsenal fans beware!

The DNBTactics boys dropped the sixth in the series of what is fast becoming my favourite drum and bass fix and this one focuses on the piano-led beats that always go down well.

I haven’t heard of 80% of the acts/producers below which in this case if a good thing.

It’s an education!

DNB Tactics is now in it’s fifth month and therefore fifth podcast release and their mission to ‘enhance your drum and bass listening experience’ is definitely working for us.

It’s not the aggressive DnB that I’ve steadily turned away from, it’s a mix of classics and underground gems so each time their mixes drop, it’s a real eye opener for how vast the genre really is.

This mix features some gorgeous bangers and this month’s ‘Untouchable’ track is Instra:mental’s remix of Commix’ Japanese Electronics. Each release features an ‘Untouchable’ and explaining on their website, they describe it as ‘[the] tune will be the biggest, baddest, bassline that we feel fits in with the genre of the tunes from that month’.

Check out the rest of the podcasts via their SoundCloud.
