De:Bug: Bassbin and Breakage

Feature on the Dublin label Bassbin and on Breakage, then 21, who had been DJing since 13 and had releases on Reinforced at 17, followed by 31, Critical and Inperspective. Bassbin gave him half of its 2004 releases. Built around a phone interview with Rohan, who runs the label, on the occasion of the Rare Grooves compilation. Rohan says Bassbin gets almost no press in Ireland, that even Calibre is barely noticed there, and that his Metropolitan nights have run since 1996 and regularly draw more than 200 people.

„Während sich der Mainstream langsam von technoiden Flugzeugträgerbässen verabschiedete und zu poppig angehauchten Liquid hinorientierte, schafften es die Iren, ihrem eigenen Klang treu zu bleiben.“Felix Krone, De:Bug 2005
