Never Sleep charity tape series remembers one of the lost arts of the DJ world whilst honouring an old friend.

Empathic Dunediner DJ Plus One celebrates victory with a schooling in razor sharp technique and competitive club arrangements . Raw focused blends, hydroplane manipulation, hamster switched curveballs and very much an education of the early 2000s UK sound.

Originally released in 2002 via the celebratory DMC 'Champion Sounds' series (which they commissioned after the success of this mix) and is remembered for being a milestone in the competitions popularity. Battle style jiggy, soon to be classic UK HipHop, raggafied Jungle and higher power methodology make the mix a certified classic. DJ Plus One establishes the gold and leaves all competition in his wake. Almost all of the UK rap in the mix was completely exclusive and hasn't been commercially released since.

DMC have been pioneering turntablism for 41 yrs and its cultural contribution to the "sport" is second to none.

All proceeds go to Bowel Babe in honour and remembrance of dear friend and colleague Shaun Roberts who helped shape and contextualise London club culture.
