You know that we like to keep our finger on the pulse here at Core HQ right? Well, we think the Totally Trashed label is an exciting one. We caught up with Sean Jukes, label owner, recently to find out a bit more…

We spoke to him about the emergence of asian EDM, clubbing in Thailand and why he's attempting to bring these new artists to the forefront with his new label, Dirty Pitch…
After our last interview with Deepbass, I decided to chase up his partner in crime for many collaborations, Ness. Currently based in Bulgaria, Ness has found himself becoming a busy traveller over the last few months with many gigs and booking in some interesting places like Taiwan and Japan. His style of techno can range from the deep, atmospheric and experimental to the energetic rolling techno with plenty of pace and attitude.

Here at Core we believe that you lot want the music to do the talking. And we like to let the DJ's do the talking when we interview them. We were lucky enough to catch up with Ponder recently, who talked to us about the history of his Elation label, his experiences down the years, and why he's coming back stronger and harder in 2013. The rise of breakbeat hardcore, and underground hardcore more widely continues unabated, and we at Core are all over it!
Industry veterans DJ Deekline and Ed Solo have teamed up to release the 'Bounce & Shake' album. Core has a listen to the album, and catches a few words with Mr Deekline himself! See what we think here, and catch a couple of mixes from the guys for good measure!
