Simple message - If you are into your Old School Jungle and DnB, do not miss this -

^^ Naphta ^^
We are totally stoked to have a foundation of Irish Jungle and Drum and Bass joining us for (a rare appearance) at the latest Get Boogie! installment. Naphta was a resident at the hallowed Dublin "Bassbin" club night, which ran for many years from the late 90s. His DJ skills and vast Jungle collection were internationally renowned and Naphta, real name Shane O'Shea, played alongside a vast range of the greats in the DnB scene. His Jungle, Hardcore and experimental productions garnered well deserved international play and praise, featuring on a range of labels such as Bassbin's own imprint, D1, Fanu's Lightless Recordings, Keysound and were more recently remixed on Droid and Slug's "Ruff Revival". Alongside Don Rosco he presented a regular Jungle and Hardcore radio show from 1994, long before there was any understanding of the sound this side of the Irish Sea.

Rosco (Get Boogie!'s March guest) recalls -
"I started doing the radio with Naphta in about 94, and there was zero action in the clubs. Hardcore made a bit of an impact over here in the early 90s, but for Jungle it was a wasteland. We'd get red cards at parties, and the rare occasions we got some kind of venue together, no-one would turn up. We used to get some stick!"

We just did the radio, and that meant we had to buy stuff that would keep us interested, which meant it had to be musically... interesting I suppose? Without the pressure of the dancefloor, we had free reign. When Rohan came along in about 98 or so and kicked the club thing off with the Bassbin nights, we had to learn how to play to dance floors, while still keeping it interesting for ourselves. It's something we tried to encourage with our residents (Zero T, Beta 2, Polska, Elmo, among a good few others), and the DJs we booked. Rohan was always on it, looking for the next big thing."

The Bassbin label is often sited as a absolutely fundamental step forward within the irish drum & bass community, supporting early Zero T, Beta 2, Polska and Naphta. Outside of Dublin in Limerick, Code's Subtle Audio is the other significant label to be releasing drum & bass.
