Why I always have a camera in my dj bag

Whenever I pack my bag to go on the road for a show, I bring a camera. I don’t always take photos; I may only take one or two, but I always have one with me. It’s a way to preserve memories and moments in time and document this life that 17-year-old me had no idea was coming.

20 - Why Representation Matters for Drum & Bass Culture

It’s easier to feel like you belong when you see someone who looks like you, coming from where you came from, doing the thing you want to do.


We should embrace everyone’s differences. Not just on a musical level but a human level. We all have our own stories and unique look at the world around us, and that informs everything we put into this culture. The music, the media, the raves. Drum and bass or not, we’re all people and the people are what make this culture what it is. Seek to understand and involve people from different backgrounds than you.


Be inclusive, not exclusive. Dubs are exclusive - The Rave should be inclusive.

19 - What Mr. Winslow was up to this last year ✌🏿

We're back! It's been a minute and I missed you too. Here's a recap episode to bridge the gap between the last one. Loads of music, the hospitality/London summer, and another round of Mr. Winslow. Anywho, you know how it goes now. Headphones on, finish those dirty dishes in your sink (ahem...), and listen to Mr. Winslow tell you a story.

18 - How to create your own space within a genre

Answering a listener's question about how we can create original music while still fitting into a scene/sound/genre. IMO, there are a couple of steps to consider and I try to break them down in my usual round-about analogy-filled way. Shouts out to @audbl2 on Twitter for the question! Anywho, you know how it goes now. Headphones on, finish that puzzle that's been laying on your living room table (ahem...) and listen to Mr. Winslow tell you a story.

15 w/ IYRE - Life in Sri Lanka, Developing his sound, and Hunger + Insane Work Ethic = ?

In this episode, I catch up with my good friend Sasith aka IYRE. The man flying the flag for Sri Lankan Drum & Bass and who's really come into his own in the last year. We talk about how his life has been over the past year, how distance from the hub of Drum and bass fuels his hunger, and his plans for the future. As usual, grab a snack and a good seat and get stuck in...

14 - Are Artists Content Creators? Let's Discuss.

Content is a bad word, right? Nah...and I'm going to tell you why. We as creative individuals learn early on that we have to wear many hats. I mean, when I started out, I never thought I'd be learning graphic design, video editing, marketing, etc... Whatever we choose, if it comes from an authentic place, we can't miss. As usual, get locked while I waffle in your ear for a little bit. You know how it goes 😅

Q&A - Are Artists Content Creators?

We'll continue the discussion in a follow-up episode exclusively for subscribers and Patreon supporters.

12 - Understanding Our Sources of Inspiration = Unlimited Creativity?

Sometimes inspiration hits you like a sack of potatoes and sometimes you're left feeling like you'll never make again. Maybe what YOU SHOULD DO is actively look for inspiration within the things you're interested in. All it takes is a flick of a switch to create your best work yet... Any who, you know the drill, stick in an earbud, and do some laundry while winsfast tells you a story.

11 - Taking a Social Media Detox to Refocus Your Creativity

And we are back with another story. For the last two months, I've been AWOL on social media and you know what, I'm in a much better place for it. Maybe this story will help you consider your connection with SM and who knows, maybe you'll take a break and come out feeling like a million bucks. Or at least, a crisp tenner... You know the drill, stick in an earbud, and wash those week-old dishes while grandpap tells you a story.
