Chennell’s musical journey began like many others’. He enjoyed a variety while young in the ‘80s, be it the latest pop on the radio, a vinyl borrowed from a friend or the latest mixtape bootlegging its way around his school. As he grew into the ‘90s and early adulthood, so did his tastes and appreciation […]

I started out listening to electronic music back in Leeds in the early 80s, mainly listening to electro music on battered old copies of StreetSounds cassettes whilst trying desperately to spin on my head! I moved on from there to all things Old Skool, missed DnB as I went traveling in Spain during the formative years and it didn't happen over there, dabbled with a bit of Garage, and then House became my thing! When I returned to the UK in the late 90s, I landed in the beautiful town of Bedford and have been here ever since. My main musical passion is all things House but over the last couple of years have been revisiting DnB and Jungle due to the massive influence of so many local DnB heroes flying the flag in B-Town and I now love to play that too!

Bio - I started DJing around the age of 15 inspired, by my mum's small collection of 80-90 pop music. I soon fell in love with trance but since then my music taste has changed and I now enjoy playing anything from garage to house to Dnb. From the age of 20, I was organizing and hosting my own local shows under the name of supervision, where I gave local DJs an opportunity to DJ in front of a crowd. More recently 2 friends and I used to stream live every Thursday on Facebook, a show we called KitchenFm as it was from our kitchen flat, it wasn’t a massive hit but we did a respectable 4000 views on the hour slot most Thursdays we went live.

I purchased second-hand decks from a colleague of mine in July 2022, in October 2022, I joined the In2Beats team, where I 1st started off, on Frenchy’s Breakfast show. I love having my own show where I can showcase music from my favorite genres, play nostalgic feels, and talk about ideas, topics, and all sorts of engaging content.

John Warehand fell in love with dance music during a holiday to Ibiza in the Summer of 1989; Lil Louis's French Kiss being his defining track of that time. In the mid-90s John bought the Technics 1210s that he still has today, and DJed at parties and clubs around London. With other commitments taking priority, it seemed like his DJ days were over by the mid-2000s, and John gave away most of his vinyl. That is until the lockdown of 2020 when he resumed DJing as a creative outlet while stuck at home - adding a Pioneer XDJ-RX2 to his setup and rebuilding his collection. As well as techno, John enjoys playing progressive house and tech-house.

Brett Costello For some time now I have been hearing "There is no quality RnB music out there any more". The Urban Meltdown is here to show that there still is - but you just have to dig that little bit deeper. On this show we will be featuring music you won't hear on commercial stations. I am talking about independent releases, quality underground tunes, and big tracks from the US and UK before they get airplay over here. If you want to keep UPFRONT and INFRONT then the Urban Meltdown will be the place for you to be every Sunday morning from 8am!!!
