About Drum and Bass UK

Your home for drum & bass news, releases, events and podcasts

Drum and Bass UK is a place to keep up with the scene without wading through noise. We bring together news, releases, artists, events and podcasts so you can find what you’re looking for quickly.

The site is run by enthusiasts. We care about accuracy, presentation and keeping things easy to use. If something looks wrong or feels incomplete, we’d rather hear about it than let it slide.

What you can do with an account

Personalise your experience and keep everything in one place

Creating an account turns Drum and Bass UK into your own space. You can build a profile, follow artists you care about, and keep track of releases and updates without the chaos.

  • Your profile lets you add a display name, bio and avatar so your account feels personal.
  • Your crate helps you save releases you want to come back to and keep a short, focused list.
  • Following artists shapes what you see and what we surface to you across the site.
  • Notifications keep you updated without spam or constant badges.
  • Reports make it easy to flag issues so the data stays accurate.

The aim is a clean, editorial feel. No clutter, no gimmicks, just features that quietly make the site better the more you use it.

A smarter events system

Cleaner listings, better data and faster discovery

The events section has had a significant rebuild. The goal is to make it easier to discover nights, check details quickly, and keep listings cleaner and more reliable over time.

  • Clearer event listings with better titles and venue context.
  • Improved structure so key details are easier to maintain and trust.
  • A setup that scales properly as more events are added.
  • Better tools for reporting issues when something doesn’t look right.

If you promote events, run a label, DJ, or just notice something missing, we want to know. Accuracy matters.

Built with the scene, not above it

Independent, community‑first and always improving

Drum and Bass UK is a long-term project. We’ll keep refining the site, improving the data, and adding features that genuinely make sense.

We’re a small team and we run this alongside other work, so replies aren’t always instant, but everything gets read.
