“Basskantine” (formerly “Ninos Del Sol”) is a reborn weekly Drum & Bass event in Mannheim, Germany, taking place every Thursday night in the Soho club. It was started by DJ Fileas a couple of years ago as a sequel to the weekly event series “Network” (held in ancient post-Millenium times on Saturdays by Tobi & Jonathan, back then well-known in the local scene) and is continued today by the baesse.de crew (who have consistently been pushing the intelligent and liquid sides of Drum & Bass with remarkable effort for many years).
As a matter of fact, the weekly evening in the Soho club is one of the few valuable constants the local Drum & Bass scene in Mannheim has been lucky to have in the past decade. It was one of the (maybe even THE) first serious attempts to counter the scene-dominating commercial low-quality UK-Jungle-Raves around the millenium.

Now on the 15th of July 2010, world famous DJ Hektik makes his drölfth appearence in this well respected institution, ready for a proper shakedown together with his 500 3 loyal fans.
And a very special guest has announced that he will also appear behind the decks this evening, to play a very special Nu Skool set: DJ Mindforce from the legendary Metaflex crew.
Without any doubt, this musical event will be more important to the history of mankind than anything before or after (including the global “financial crisis” of 2011, the following years of mass starvation, the official takeover of world wide neofeudalism in 2017 and Georg Schramm’s pre-emptive resignation from coporate television in June 2010).
As always in history, quality is best witnessed live – rather than reported & missed. So be there or [insert any pun].
