1 More Thing New Generation Podcast 006: Bluck

Our New Generation podcast is back! Dedicated to all emergent artists currently denting, sculpting and re-shaping the bass scene, our series returns with a brand new host - Gianina Mesina. The concept remains the same as it's always been: our New Generation podcast is here to give space to those breaking through to tell their story and share their challenges and unique perspective on the industry and scene right now in 2026. And at the end of the interview, they nominate the next guest. For this episode Gianina meets London-based Bluck. DJ, promoter, producer, a qualified neuroscientist; Emma Bluck is Hospital Records mentorship student 2026, she's behind the grassroots talent championing event Circuit Sounds, she's recently started to reveal her productions to the world and, just in this week of publishing this podcast she's announced a new residency on Kool / Rinse! And that's just the tip of the iceberg; Bluck's on an exciting musical adventure that's unfolding with new levels and benchmarks every week... And none of it is undeserved. Committed to the real underground sound and culture of drum & bass, Bluck is flying the flag proudly for all previous generations and this is how she's doing it.

Exploring PLUR with B-Complex (1 More Thing Podcast #32)

Our first podcast of 2026 sees Dave Columbo Jenkins reconnecting with Slovakian drum & bass artist B-Complex for an extensive chatter about peace, love, unity, respect and many other topical matters of the day. Kicking off instantly with an exploration of neurodiversity, we then traverse the scary state of politics in the world, the toxicity of billionaireism and of course Trans people and the challenges, blocks and obstacles they face every single day. As a very prominent trans artist in drum & bass, Matia has been confronted by acute actions of hate in recent years by a very small but vocal minority. Her retaliation was a message of love: a Various Artist compilation called PLUR which unites the scene against all agents of hate, abuse and ignorance. All proceeds will go to Victory Beats, an organisation healing traumatised people in Ukraine with music therapy. Released on Imagine Audio, you can support it here: https://imagineaudio1.bandcamp.com/album/plur-peace-love-unity-respect Like the compilation, the conversation goes deep and covers all kinds of grounds. We guarantee you'll come away from this inspired. Visit https://1-more-thing.co.uk/ for more information on this podcast and other similar content. Like what you're hearing and want to support it?

A Year Of Fireworks Factory : 1 More Thing Podcast (#31)

December 23 2024: The date we announced our first Mixmas winner - Fireworks Factory. Neither he, or we, had ANY idea what would follow this announcement. He was only meant to win a DJ set, instead he's become a core member of our creative collective and has had a profound and very positive influence on the brand. We've released his music, twice, and done quite a few more shows than the single gig he was promised and we have so much more to do in 2026 and beyond. But first we look back over the year he's had and the journey we've shared. From my cringey over-excited first interview with him exactly a year ago all the way through to his recent single Back To U / Infinite Crashing Wave, this extensive interview maps out and explores the trip we've been on both from Max's perspective as an emergent new generation artist and from my perspective as a new label that is purposefully going against the grain at a time when a huge amount of the industry seems obssessed with only profits, metrics and maintaining an increasingly depressing status quo. Despite the raw reality of the current world, 1 More Thing remains a fresh, inclusive, community-minded space that encourages new ideas, urges its crew to break rules and insists on doing things differently. We know that Max Fireworks Factory shares those ethics too and that vision, too. December 23 2025: The date we celebrate this chance encounter and ongoing collaboration with a unique podcast. A must-watch for any new artist hoping to breakthrough right now. Enjoy! Visit https://1-more-thing.co.uk/ for more information on this podcast and other similar content.

1 More Thing Podcast #030: Dysfunction - Donk, Eclecticism and ADHD

For our latest deep discussion Dave Columbo welcomes Dysfunction, a fellow Welsh DJ and advocate of the more extreme outposts of the musical multi-verse. A long-time friend of the platform but now fully fledged crew; following months of Demo Drop contributions and a legendary donk b2b at a Twitch convention, Dysfunction made their label debut with Confusion EP in November 2025. The EP dropped just days before we recorded this conversation, documenting that strange era of suspense, excitement and fear that comes just before a release. This conversation goes super deep as Cai shares their origin story, their encyclopedic knowledge of music and theory-trained roots, how they embrace their ADHD as a creative artist and how their mental health has improved over the years. Loaded with all kinds of technical talk along the way, this chat does not hold back. And there are a few little jump-scares along the way, too! Check out Dysfunction's Confusion EP. Out now on 1 More Thing. Visit https://1-more-thing.co.uk/ for more information on this podcast and other similar content. Like what you're hearing and want to support it?

From Memphis to Mumbai: Imaganimatrix is fusing dance styles on a whole new level (1MT Podcast 29)

We're proud to share with you our first podcast with a street dancer. Get to know Imaganimatrix, India's first certified Memphis Jookin practitioner! Imaganimatrix came into our world through Quentin Hiatus when he commissioned these two incredible videos to help us promote our release with him this summer. We were so inspired by his moves and his gravity defying art, we called him up to find out about his journey and how a kid from the east got so inspired by a style from the west. We left knowing so much more. This is a unique story of an artist who is fusing his own path and style between two highly expressive worlds that are thousands of kilometres awway in reality but maybe not so far away physically, creatively and soulfully.

Addiction, compassion & empathy : in conversation with Sahala & Diligent Fingers (1 More Thing Podcast 28)

Sending out love and strength to everyone who is personally fighting addiction or supporting someone they love through addiction. This is a unique and very special interview. Caedubs & Sahala's Calling Out Your Name is as personal as any song can get. A heartfelt homage from daughter to mother, pleading with her and with the universe for calm and clarity, it hits hard with raw soul, love and compassion. You can feel and hear the trauma being released with every single lyric. Released on Diligent Fingers' Spynal Records, this is the type of backbone we want to see so much more of in our music and culture. Dave joined Dili and Sahala to find out more and create a space where we could discuss such a deep and heartbreaking topic and celebrate the power of music and how it allows us to unleash those emotions that society makes us surpress. Covering all aspects of compassion, empathy and how to embrace those emotions ourselves as writers and creators, this interview mines for light in some very dark places. These type of messages and this type of support is what we're here for and what we want to create space for. If anything in this conversation resonates with you please share your thoughts in the comments. Huge love to Sahala, Cae and Dili.

Fight Or Flight: The inspiring label dedicated to fighting brain cancer. 1 More Thing Podcast 27

In May 2019 Matt Toole was diagnosed with a Stage 4 glioblastoma, a form of malignant brain tumor. He was told that the average life expectancy for people in his situation was 18 months. September 2025, Matt is more present, inspired, motivated and determined than ever. Since his initial diagnosis and treatment he's returned to his work as a music teacher, he has a young family and, alongside his brother Adam, he makes music as Soul Bass Project. Together they also run one of the most unique labels in bass music - Fight Or Flight Recordings. A label that exists purely to raise awareness and funds for the Brain Tumor Charity. Launched June 2020 with a VA compilation Survival Is Instinct, the label has gone on to raise almost £3000 so far and they're planning to raise more in the future. Following a recent fundraiser at False Relation's Contrary Motions event in Leicester, Matt and Adam join our host Dave Columbo Jenkins to explain about their musical roots, their creative process and how they've found light and inspiration during some of the hardest of times.

1 More Thing Podcast #026 : Billain

The podcast returns! And for this one we've invited a genuinely unique and forward-thinking figure - Billain. Something of a lone figure in drum & bass, Bosnian Billain goes into epic levels of detail with every release musically, visually and narratively. Amid his previous albums and EPs like Collosus, Lands Unbreached and Nomad's Revenge he's created, scripted and built an entire universe with its own lore, culture and characters. Drum & bass, sci-fi and a thirst for future tech and pushing things forward have always been incredibly close but Billain smelts this fusion down at brave new temperatures. It's why his short movie Fugitive has won over 30 awards and is still invited to film festivals three years after it was launched. Now it's time to find out where his third album Mirror fits into this universe and cannon of creative adventures, how it came to life and the whole creative process and context behind it. Even in the short time that's passed since his last album - Lands Unbreached - dropped in 2022 the world, the ecomony and life has changed so much... Does this global turbulence draw us deeper into Billain's universe or is he taking a step back from it himself? As he settles down and makes himself at home on Magnetude and Task Horizon's Evolution Chamber imprint, Billain reflects on everything that's brought us to this moment and everything that challenges us as creatives. From industry standardisation and conservatism to the ironies of having the most creative DJ kit imaginable but tracks still having to fit the demands of DJs via the importance of community. Most notably his own thriving Cyberneuro community. If ever there was a polymath in drum & bass, it's this cat. And this summer he's actually had his cream as he was finally booked as one of the main headliners for the dnb mother fest Let It Roll. We reflect on all of this and plenty more. Billain is forthright, philosophical and loaded with fresh ideas and perspectives (plus plenty of dry humour). This is an immense and very thought provoking conversation. Hope you enjoy it!
