Friday Night Digger Recap: Community Throwbacks & North London Warehouse Vibes

New chart is live, we're supporting Focus Break, and the chat picked an absolute speed-freak classic.

Sup crew, Blaze here. The energy in the Friday Night Digger session was off the scale this week. I let the digging crew take total control of the "Time Capsule" slot, and you lot went straight for a high-octane classic that defined the late-90s/early-00s crossover sound.

The official Friday Night Digger Week 6 Chart is now live. If you want to grab the secret weapons we unearthed during the stream, the full list is right here:

I’m also buzzing to announce we are supporting a brand new grassroots movement: Focus Break. They are launching in North London at the end of the month, and it's all about that raw, warehouse energy that the scene was built on. Get down and support the new wave.

We’ve also got the On The Rise workshop and the Queen’s Yard countdown continuing. February is looking massive.

Prime Selection — Burgos
Track: "Fresh"
Label: Samay Records
The Vibe: Burgos delivers exactly what the title suggests—a fresh, crisp take on the modern breakbeat sound. The track is built around a heavy, rolling sub-bass and intricate, syncopated drum patterns that keep the energy moving. It’s got that signature Samay polish with a gritty edge.
Best For: Bringing a sophisticated, high-energy bounce to the peak of your set.

Tuesday’s Logic — Busspass
Track: "Lets Go"
Label: DistroKid
The Vibe: This is a straight-up dancefloor weapon. It kicks off with an aggressive, driving vocal hook that leads into a heavy, distorted bassline and rapid-fire percussion. It’s raw, energetic, and designed to get the room moving instantly.
Best For: Shifting the gears and injecting raw energy into a midweek session.

Weekly Masterpiece — Fortuny & Jordaz (ESP)
Track: "REBELS OF THE NIGHT"
Label: DistroKid
The Vibe: A dark, atmospheric masterpiece that leans into the "noir" side of breaks. Featuring haunting synth textures and a deep, pulsing bassline, it builds a massive sense of scale before dropping into a clean, driving rhythm.
Best For: Creating a cinematic, moody atmosphere during a late-night set.

Classic Rotation — Azzido Da Bass
Track: "Speed (Can You Feel It) - Azzido da Bass Breakspeed Mix"
Label: Club Tools
The Vibe: Picked by the Digger crew! This is a foundational speed-breaks anthem. It features that iconic, screeching synth lead and a relentless, high-BPM breakbeat that pioneered the crossover between techno energy and broken rhythms.
Best For: Absolute peak-time carnage when the energy needs to go through the roof.

Friday’s Forecast — Perfect Kombo
Track: "Ritual Pleasure"
Label: Break Beat Connection
The Vibe: Perfect Kombo closes the selection with a deep, tribal-infused roller. "Ritual Pleasure" uses hypnotic percussive layers and a thick, undulating bassline to create a groove that feels both ancient and futuristic.
Best For: Hypnotizing the floor and building a long, rolling groove.

👋 THE FINAL WORDS

A Personal Request: I’ve officially entered the Pete Tong DJ Academy Future Talent Awards, and my latest Session mix (link below) is serving as the entry video. I don’t usually ask for favours, and I’m going into this with zero expectations—let’s face it, most people still don’t "get" Breaks. But if we can get enough eyes on it, we might just highlight our beloved genre on a massive platform. If you have a second, please watch the video and drop a comment to help push the sound forward.

Support the Movement: If you're enjoying the weekly deep dives and the Friday streams, consider supporting the Ministry. You can now Buy Me A Coffee to help keep the crates fresh and the streams running! ☕ 👉 [Support Blaze on Buy Me A Coffee]

Monday Night Lives are still on ice, but my inbox is open for guest mixes! If you've got the minerals to join our radio rotation, get in touch. Also, big up to everyone repping the new MOB gear—tag us in your photos so we can share the love.

LATEST MIXES

Passing thought of the week: Sometimes the old-school 'Speed' energy is exactly what the doctor ordered.
