This weeks guest is like a beacon of friendliness and positivity in our culture. He's got his finger on the pulse of our local underground dance community and every time I see him he's planning or promoting a new event. People like Omar are what make local rave communities GROW! He's a fire DJ too and I have personally witnessed him packing dance floors on more than one occasion. It's a pleasure to host this one for him and we're pretty excited to share it. Representing Orlando FL, please welcome deejay ZION. Links below.Please enjoy❤️back next week-Thomas

Tuesday Apr 29, 2025

I met this weeks guest on the dance floor at a rave. I love that.  I was promoting for an event or handing out stickers or something and I asked him if he was into DNB..He pointed at his T shirt and laughed..then I saw it and I laughed and instantly is was like we had been friends for a long time. Thinking back, I can't remember what was on that shirt at all lol. He introduced himself and it turns out I had been seeing this guys name on flyers for a few years now. We exchanged some info and here we are...My boy is a SELECTA. Deep funky vibes on this one. If you don't know, get to know! Representing Central Florida, please welcome Jungle Rivers.Link in bio/link in comments. Please enjoy❤️Back next week-Thomas 

AJS #117 Vixen Stylee

Tuesday Apr 22, 2025

Tuesday Apr 22, 2025

This weeks guest is a part of the fabric of our Florida dnb community. One could argue that her influence extends as far as the  global dnb community as well. EVERYONE knows Victoria. There are party people that just bring the vibe. She's one of those special humans. We were blessed to have her on the mic for our first American Junglist night. It was a really exceptional event and she had a lot to do with it.  She's a sick dj, a fire MC, and she currently has a pretty fresh tune out with Reflections on Rolled Up Records right now. Representing The Geisha Collective, please welcome Vixen Stylee

AJS#115 Terran It Up

Tuesday Apr 08, 2025

Tuesday Apr 08, 2025

Through this show I have had the great fortune of meeting some really amazing people...This weeks guest is no exception. I haven't met her in person yet but it seems like everyone knows her somehow. She once told me she was "dance floor famous".... I just love that. BIG RAVE  vibes from this one. That's my shit.  She's  a pretty sick dj too and her aggressive mixing style is also my shit. Representing New Orleans LA, please welcome Terran it up! Terran Alonzo is a Chicana artist, US Army veteran, and rising star amongst her peers in the American dnb community.  Her decade of military service instilled in her a discipline that she carries with her in all aspects of her life.  As a classically trained musician, Terran possesses a deep understanding of rhythm and harmony and applies it to great effect on the turntables. On the dance floor, in the studio, or behind the decks, Terrans positive energy is contagious and powerful. Links below Please enjoy❤️back next week-Thomas

AJS#113 VELLE

Tuesday Mar 25, 2025

Tuesday Mar 25, 2025

Sometimes I still get up in my head about meeting these guys. In this weeks case,  I went to the label boss of one of the hottest labels in DNB to ask if he could get her to do a mix for us because in my mind that felt more comfortable...lol. It turns out I should have just sent her a message. She's the nicest! Representing Overview Music, North Carolina, and American underground dance music culture, please welcome VELLE. There are a few producers in North America writing music at her level. What's funny, is most American DNB heads probably have no idea she's American.  Artists like her are the tip of the spear in underground sonics. Not only here in the states but globally. We're really excited to share her mix with ya'll. Tracklist below.Please enjoyBack next week-Thomas
