Beatvandals is a side project formed by the legendary Tim Utah of Utah Saints. Tim also runs the mid tempo Bombstrikes label with Mooqee an outfit to release some of their cheeky bootlegs and Funky Breaks music. This promo mix from 2008 was just at the beginning of the Nufunk scene which led to the Ghetto Funk scene and contains some rare bootlegs and edits from the Beatvandals.

Vandal aka Sam Evans was a pioneering Tech Funk producer and DJ with a bunch of releases on such labels as LOT49, Global Underground, Plastic Raygun, and U&A. His Punk Rock attitude to the music and scene has seen him play all over the world and gain a large fan base in the mid 2000’s. This mix was aired on Annie Nightingale’s BBC Radio 1 show and was personally downloaded by me using my leet hacking skillz (lol).

Based in St. Petersburg, Russia, Lady Waks aka Alexandra Waks is a force to be reckoned with in the electronic music scene. It all started in 1999 with her Hip Hop show on St. Petersburg’s biggest radio station, Radio Record.

IBWT has hosted just about every big Breakbeat DJ in the world. Lady Waks then went into create Breaks Arena, the worlds first Breakbeat Festival. Lady Waks has since toured the world multiple times and has had various releases on different labels, she still continues to promote the gospel of Breaks to her adoring fans and produces a Breakbeat show on Russia’s Radio Record.

The Stanton Warriors have a discography about as long as my arm ! Consisting of Dominic Butler and Mark Yardley, the duo have performed internationally with their infamous Stanton Sessions parties in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia. Their name was taken from a manhole cover, made by Stanton Ironworks, which seemed fitting with their style of underground, cutting edge music.

The is so much to be said about this duo and their influence in electronic music today that i could go on forever….
This mix from back in December 2007 was recorded LIVE at Klub 4 in Ljubljana, Slovenia and showcases the typical Booty Bass Breaks sound from them at that time. Enjoy !
