Why We D&B

Welcome to episode 4 of Why We D&B with the amazing Danny Byrd! As one of Hospital Records’ earliest signings, Danny has spent nearly three whole decades bringing pure joy, soul and rave energy into drum & bass. From Supersized and Rave Digger to bona fide anthems like Ill Behaviour, his music has soundtracked a lot of very happy dance floors - and all these years later, he continues to pour so much into the scene. In Episode 4, Laurie sits down with Danny to go right back to the beginning, discussing everything from Danny wanting to be on the inside of the scene he loved so much, the feeling of being part of something, the moments that pushed him to up his game and so much more.
