Beatcamp 25 year Anniversary Orlando!   Drum and bass doesn't leave much white space for the listener. It fills the air without pause: drum fills layered on top of one another, breakbeats at a breakneck frequency, and a splatter of chest-pumping bass that can stop someone from breathing. This is drum and bass around the world, and thanks to the birth of BeatCamp, which turns 25 this year, that's the way it is in Miami and now moving forward Orlando too.  The legendary Beatcamp from Miami is coming to Orlando to provide a family oriented place where we can embrace Drum n Bass and its origins.      Thanks to Ace Cafe Beatcamp will begin its monthly voyage Wednesday November 23rd 2022 in the Heart of Orlando. Before Beat Camp gave drum ’n’ bass a location in South Florida, the airwaves delivered it to the masses. There was the pirate radio station WOMB 107.1, which launched in 1995 on Lincoln Road, and University of Miami's WVUM 90.5. Fabian, AKA Influx Datum, had two day shows and a group Beat Camp Friday-night show on the WOMB. It wasn’t just drum ’n’ bass either; he brought in guitarists and keyboardists to play live with the beats he spun. Beatcamp’s goal is to bring this energy to Orlando.     “Beat Camp and drum ’n’ bass in general changed my life forever,” champion turntablist and Slow Roast Records founder DJ Craze says. "I remember having some of the best times of my life there... At the time, I wasn't feeling hip-hop anymore and I was looking for something to capture my attention. Drum ’n’ bass did it... They would bring in talent from all over the world." There, Craze made connections with Goldie, A-Sides, and Influx UK. “The music was everything. This was pre-internet, so to a lot of us, when people would come through from the U.K., this would be the first time hearing new dubplates and the fresh, new shit.”
