We return with another edition of our #backofthestack series. This week we caught up with D&B legend DJ Trace. His journey started way back in the early 90’s with his first ever release in 1991 on Orbital Records which made it into the UK national charts selling over 1000 records within 2 weeks. It was around that time that he played his first ever gig at Rapido at Oxford Ice Rink which was the start of DJ Trace’s musical journey. He later went on to play at some of the biggest raves going on in the UK in the early 90’s.

Throughout 93 to 95 DJ Trace had a string of timeless releases on Lucky Spin Recordings & Dee Jay Recordings which still stand the test of time today. Some of my favourites include: Lost Entity, Final Chapter, Coffee, Inside Information & Miles High to name a few. Trace then remixed the seminal ‘T -Power VS. MK Ultra – ‘Mutant Jazz’  in 1995 which Duncan pulled off with perfection. A remix that still gets talked about today! It was originally in 1993 when he hooked up with Nico through Ed Rush, with Fierce joining not long after. Then a few years later the Tech-Step sound was born and the hugely influential ‘Torque’ album was produced. We also can’t be forgetting his release on Gooveriders Prototype Recordings in 1998, ‘Sonar’ which has been an anthem in clubs ever since it was released.

Duncan then started his own label in London in 1999 ‘DSCI4’ which has has been the perfect platform to release the Neurofunk sound he wanted to focus on. And in 2012 he also kicked off a sub-label, ‘117’ which is concentrating more and more on 90’s style production. He then relocated to the States where he’s been based since 2013.  It’s quite clear Duncan Hutchison AKA DJ Trace has been a pivotal part of our music scene for well over 25+ years. Check out what he selected when we asked him to pick 3 records to reflect on.

Lonnie Liston Smith – Expansions
A stone cold classic rare groove, one of those tracks that just captivates the soul.

Rhythim is Rhythim – It is what it is
I first heard this tune at RAGE, Techno masterclass from Derrick May. I’m still catching a vibe from it today.

Baraka – I’ll Be There
Sublime and super rare ambient Jungle, some say it’s a Jonny L alias but who really knows?

  • It’s time for another killer edition of Back of the Stack, with the selections this time around coming from one of Manchester’s finest exports, the junglist MC and all round top bloke @chimpomcr

It is rare to find an artist who can be so proficient across multiple disciplines of drum and bass, from rap to production to DJ’ing, but Chimpo crosses between all three with apparent ease. With his new album dropping next month, the the man himself gives us a taste of some of the classic cuts that helped shape his awesome style of filthy bars and filthier bass lines.

  • PREMIERE: Villem - "Deep Step"

@villem_murkt returns to @symmetryrecordings for his first solo release, with two jungle influenced tracks. A versatile producer, Villem has graced different styles over the past decade and whilst his output keeps you guessing, his reputation for quality is never in doubt.

‘Deep Step’ flips this inspiration, as serene strings and pads lead into heavy, cascading breaks; crashing and alternating throughout, coalesced by thumping bass kicks.

  • Dutch artist @_nymfo_ has released music on some of the biggest labels in the scene, but one he keeps coming back to is Total Science’s CIA Records. Having recently released the “Stone Cold EP” on @ciarecords69 we hit him up to have a quick chat about what he’s been he
  • After a lengthy hiatus, Back of the Stack returns! This edition plays host to a certified legend of the Drum & Bass scene in @architexink who’s dark, dirty beats have been reverberating through London’s club scene since the late 90’s. If you can think of an iconic London club night, Ink has probably had a residency there; Metalheadz at Bule Note, Hardware at The End and Speed at Mars Bar were all on the list of dancefloors being torn up by Giles on a regular basis.
