ith his own productions and label Metalheadz, Goldie has consistently been at the cutting edge of Drum and Bass, championing some of the brightest talents and rawest sounds the scene has to offer with acts such as Dillinja, Adam F and Optical all benefiting from his touch. He was also the driving force behind the rise of the infamous Metalheadz Sunday Session Club Nights, which achieved legendary status at East London's Blue Note club.

Continuing to hold his own at the forefront of the drum and bass scene, the latest installment in the Watch the Ride Series captures the essence of what has always made the D&B veteran so passionate about music: a dark, gutsy sound going back to the roots of jungle, made ever the more potent through state of the art studio production. As you would expect from one of the masters of the game the mix is filled with cutting edge sounds, including exclusives from Subwave, D Bridge & Goldie, Barney Trouble, Rufige Kru, Friction & K Tee, D Kay & Lee from the Metalheadz stable plus further exclusives from Shy FX and System.

Visceral dark and twisted at times Goldie kicks off the mix with the haunting liquid vibes of Dutch Electronic Music trio Noisia’s ‘Strange Owl Project.’ Pincered between two of his own tracks ‘Mirror’ with D Bridge and ‘Monkey Boy,’ under his Rufige Kru guise, Barney Trouble’s ‘Mile High’ drives the mix forward setting the tone for what is to be an hour and a half of rich and varied sounds.
DJ Hazard’s ‘Machete’ and a remix of Shy FX’s ‘Bambatta’ move the mix into altogether grimier, darker territory, pushing the tempo, seamlessly dropping into System’s ‘Near Miss’ for a tearing run through big hitters from DJ Die & Break, Commix, Future Cut and Calibre before rounding things off with the growling ‘Shanghai Dub’ from Rufige Kru.
