The American Junglist

I first met this weeks guest at a festival last year. I thought he was pretty great DJ and we hit it off right away. I wouldn't find out for a few more months that he was also a talented MC. I have had the pleasure of having him grace the Mic for me more than a few times. He's even gone on the road with me when I play out of town. He's the best! Representing Orlando Florida, please welcome Keecode  Please enjoy❤️ Back next week  -Thomas   

I met this weeks guest over the summer after subscribing to his Youtube Channel a few years  ago now I think?  It's pretty fun to be out here and meeting passionate people that build platforms for the love of this music and our culture. He's been documenting South Florida DNB for a while. You can hear his hometown's influence in his mixtapes and we just love that shit!

I first became aware of this weeks guest maybe 3 years ago? I heard there was this guy playing festivals in central Florida and  he mixed like a maniac.....Like A.M.C (it turns out John is fucking bananas🍌 🍌🍌on the decks) I got to see him at the  first Cybefunx hosted by Deejay Zion in Orlando. He smoked the place! Since then I have had the pleasure of getting to see him a few more times and even play a few events with him. John is the best!!!! Special human right here... Total vibe.

This weeks guest is a force for positivity. People like him are what make rave communities in different parts of the country exciting and fun. Vibrant even. He writes for Best Drum & Bass, he throws raves with some of the most distinguished crews in his city, he has a popular Twitch channel, and he's just an overall vibe of a dude. Representing Proper Drum and Bass Chicago, please welcome Tonto. Links and tracklist below This  is an entirely acid (think 303 sounds from acid house at 174+ BPM) drum and bass mix dedicated to the Viva Acid crew in Chicago. Viva Acid is a cultural, social, and musical festival across select areas of the city that features multiple club nights that explore the history of this iconic sound, live panels of cultural mainstays in the rich music scene in Chicago.  They also feature speakers, film, production workshops, and advice on networking in the city. Here are some of the featured topics: “Claiming Space, Shaping Culture” about how we can protext musical space and resist corporate takeover of these spaces, “Thriving Through Opposition: The Trans Experience”, and the “Ableton Playground” hosted by FEMME HOUSE. Viva Acid occurs from Oct 2-5 2025 and will continue to run into the future. Consider connecting to the crew and lookout for recaps and recordings of some of these talks.

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 welcome Reid Speed.

As a DJ who has been at this for a very long time, there aren't a whole lot of DJ's I'll stick around for after my set. With that being said, when this weeks guest is on the lineup, I'll stay.

Sometimes I forget how good my friends are and then I listen to their mixtapes. 3 mixes into this one and I remember why this weeks guest stays booked. The Dark one! She's one of my favorite humans, one of my favorite DJ's, she's got a dog that's probably more famous than her and she's the genius behind one of Floridas best DNB nights, Renegade Sound.

I have to work really hard to be some semblance of "put together" I'm kind of a neurotic mess. Every time I see this weeks guest, I always admire how he's just effortlessly cool. That energy carries into in his music too. He's one of thoe people that just radiates positive energy. His music and his mixtapes have his own distinct Ruffneck jungle sound and we just love it. Representing the Tampa Bay, please welcome back PopeJohn. Please enjoy❤️ Back next week -Thomas 

first became aware of this weeks guest through the socials...I kept seeing her name pop up on new nights in the Tampa/St. Pete area. It turns out she was involved in making most of those events happen. To say she hustles would be an understatement. Representing Tampa Florida, please welcome Trippy Britty.  She's a DJ, vocalist, and event coordinator based in Tampa Bay, rooted in intention, precision, and a deep dedication to underground music culture. Her mixing style is fluid and technical — blending genres, layering tracks, and crafting thoughtful, high-impact sets. In this mix, expect high-energy selections in the realm of jump up and neurofunk. Outside the booth, she’s focused on growing the local EDM community through inclusive, grassroots events. She founded Turntable Tuesday, a bass-only open decks night featuring a dedicated drum & bass hour, and throws down DnB every Sunday at Mastry’s Brewing Co. in St. Pete Beach. Please enjoy❤️ Back next week -Thomas

Some artist have difficulty coming up with an original sound. This weeks guest isn't one of them. Usually a few seconds into one of his tunes, you know its him. We love that! His music is a mix of future bass with a heavy dose of Ruffneck jungle. Representing Tallahasee Florida, please welcome back Rends Please enjoy❤️ Back next week -Thomas

I have known this weeks guest in one form or another for a very long time. As a raver in a club watching him play, to a friend of a friend, and now in the present, we talk pretty often. I can assure you, he is just as much fun as his cover photo implies. He's been on flyers playing DNB in the DC metro area for decades now. He's part of the fabric of our little east coast DNB community. Excited to share this one especially. Representing Fredericksburg Virginia, please welcome SubStrate.

A few years ago me and DarciiDarka won a mixtape contest and got to play for Lucid dnb in Austin TX. It was awesome! We met a lot of killer DJ's that night. When I met this weeks guest, I remember thinking she was super polite and very friendly. I had no idea she was also on the lineup. Then she went on and Rinsed the place. It was bananas. The next morning at the airport, her set was all we could talk about. We've been super fans ever since. Representing San Antonio Texas, please welcome Alyssa Rose.
