What Is the Platform Project?
The Platform Project was set up by Drum & Bass enthusiasts DJ Pi and Jimmy Dark who wanted to help give underground Drum & Bass producers a chance to shine.
It was aimed at giving those artists a platform for which to springboard their music career and get recognised by bigger labels and that is still the underlying ethos today.
Of course, this wouldn't be possible without having a station to support the project, which is why we must give thanks to Bassport FM for allowing the Project to reach a wider audience.
Since Jimmy Dark stepped down in January 2017, I was asked to step up due to my existing series I had on SoundCloud called "Havey's Highlights", where I'd mix together a 30 minute podcast showcasing tracks I liked from the network.
Now, we're exploring other avenues of supporting artists with the advent of blockchain technology and things are starting to change.
What about tonight's show?
April 2018 on the Platform Project sees me return to the helm, bringing us some positive Liquid Drum & Bass in a time when it seems there's a lot of negativity in the world.
Expect a collection of tracks from new and old producers as we celebrate the wonders that Drum & Bass can bring to fray!
