In its heyday, the California West Coast was a mecca for Drum & Bass with San Francisco leading the way. Groups of talented artists such as the Phunckateck crew and Sister SF were pushing envelopes and forging sounds that helped put the US on the map in the global culture. While living in San Diego at that time, I caught wind of a Bay Area DJ acting as label manager for Skunkrock Productions by the name of Alley Cat who would be performing at the city’s most influential club, The Dragon Lounge. We had been in contact before the gig and finally met that night after she dropped one of the better sets I’ve heard at that location. Years went by, new paths were followed and she somehow ended up across the large pond doing even bigger and better things. Seeing all that she’s presenting to the table these days, I figured it was time to introduce you to this multi-faceted magnate and purveyor of deep music, Alley Cat.
