A SIDES (eastside / true playaz / metalheadz /valve - UK)
A Sides is one of the most highly respected producer / DJ in the drum n bass scene. He has been producing music since 1990 and has released over 300 tracks to date. As well as running his own labels Eastside, Fuze and Diagram he has found time to record for other labels such as Metalheadz, Valve, True Playaz, Bingo, Innerground, Reinforced, Advanced, and many more.
A Sides has also been taking on a lot of remix work in his time, most notabley maybe the massive remix of Waterhouse Dub by Digital. Further remix productions include those for Pivotal, Skunkrock Productions and the legendary Brazillian percussionist Dom Um Rumao.
The past 2-3 years have been A Sides most succesful to date. To start off, there was the release of Eastside Jamz Vol. 2, an Eastside Records compilation with contributions by high-profile producers such as Peshay, Digital & Spirit, Total Science, Calibre and A Sides himself in collaboration with MC Fats. In 2003 A Sides releases among many other tracks, his much anticipated single What U Dont Know featuring the vocal talents of MC Fats and Regina (July 2003) and following this was his first ever solo album Follow The Groove (Oct. 2003) with further productions featuring MC MC, J-Eye and his Sci-Clone partner Nathan Hines. A Sides can like no other combine soulful vocals with rolling breaks and his heavy trademark bass, thus making his tracks work extremely well on the dancefloor. A quality that a variety of top DJs have long noticed. A Sides tracks appear regularly on playlists of big name djs like Grooverider, Fabio or Andy C.
And while A Sides is not in the studio he finds time to hold down a busy dj schedule. He has extensively toured the globe and has played in countries such as Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Finland, Sweden, Norway, France, Holland, Belgium, Canada and The United States where he holds a guest residence at New York City's Direct Drive. But also a variety of less obvious places like Iceland, Estonia, Slovenia, Israel, Bulgaria, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Australia, Spain, Puerto Rico, Russia, South Africa, Japan and New Zealand have experienced the force that is A Sides.
A Sides is known for his tight mixing skills and technicality as a dj. And with most high-profile djs in the scene playing his tunes on dubplate, A Sides is spoilt for choice as in return he gets loads of fresh material from them. This is mirrored in his versatile track selection. He plays across the board with his sets combining a mixture of all drumnbass flavours but A Sides versatility as a DJ also enables him to play specially requested sets if need be.
Somehow in his hectic schedule he found time to sign his tracks to various high profile labels. The following is the output from the past 12 months alone:
A Certain Sound / Bring Dat (both tracks feat. MC Fats) out on Hypes True Playaz
"Delirious" (A Sides feat. J-Eye) on Liquid V

BASSFACE SASCHA (Smoking Drum, Machine, YOU FM/XXL - DE)
DER DRUM N BASS PIONIER DEUTSCHLANDS!!!
Kaum ein anderer in Deutschland beschäftigt sich schon so lange mit den gebrochenen Beats wie Bassface Sascha.
Nachdem er fast 4 Jahre lang mit der Sendung "Outbreak" auf XXL den Anhängern der gebrochenen Beats ein Forum geboten hat, kommt Bassface Sascha auf YOU FM nun regelmäßig in die Clubnight und bringt uns auf den neuesten Stand in Sachen Drum & Bass.
Mannheim, Industriestadt an der Mündung des Neckar in den Rhein, gilt als Geburtsstätte deutschen D&B in den frühen 90er Jahren - woran Bassface Sascha keinen ganz kleinen Anteil hatte. Ausgehend vom dortigen Milk!-Club erzeugte er zusammen mit Holger "Groover" Klein 1991 eine wahre Breakbeat Hysterie im Rhein-Neckar-Raum, die eigentlich bis heute anhält, und bald auch Frankfurt erreichte. 1993 erkoren Holger und Sascha das XS am Theaterplatz (später Willy-Brandt-Platz) zur neuen Heimat. Im selben Jahr spielten die beiden auf der Mayday auch das erste Drum & Bass-Set überhaupt bei einem deutschen Mega-Rave. Nach wie vor gehört Sascha zu den namhaftesten Vertretern unter den D&B-DJs.
1994 gründete Sascha das Label Smokin' Drum Recordings, 1999 dann Machine. Im gleichen Jahr erschien sein hoch gelobtes Album "Different Faces" auf Mole Listening Pearls. Zu Saschas zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen und diversen Remixen für namhafte Künstler wie Eminem ("Scarie Movies"), Armand van Helden, Jazzkantine u.a. gehören auch einige Film- und Werbespot-Vertonungen.
