One of the most daring, creative contributors to drum & bass's neuro movement, Sarajevo-based sound designer Billain is a genuinely unique individual who has applied his abilities to a wealth of sonic arts... From massive club destroyers to big screen movies and commercial advertising campaigns. With a clear skill at illustrating and story writing, he's a bona fide auteur.

Award-winning duo from the UK and Norway, Calyx & TeeBee both carved their own distinct sounds as solo artists before joining forces in 2004. Two albums, many singles and one exclusive deal with Ram Records late and they're regarded as one of the best partnerships in drum & bass. Their early work inspired Noisia to produce and their six-deck-two-mixer shows are the stuff of scene legend. Serious D&B soldiers.

Shogun bossman, scene ambassador on BBC Radio1 and marksman-level selector legend: what Friction doesn't know about drum & bass truly isn't worth knowing.
