Our second resident DJ and a valued part of the OBA family. Kenobi has managed to secured an amazing residency with Wicked Beats Radio, where he has a two hour slot every Thursday π
Based in Basingstoke, he is best known for mixing Jungle and Jump Up, but his versatility behind the decks means he can turn his hand to just about anything.

Meet @mercia.dnb π
Not only is he our resident DJ, but he is also one half of Outerbloom Audio π€ He also forms part of @triple_threat_audio β¦ some may say heβs a busy man!!
He based in the West Midlands, namely Wolverhampton. Mercia predominantly mixes Jump Up, but is known to explore all sub genres when behind the decks.
His journey into the DnB scene began after being completely mesmerised by DJ Hazardβs Time Tripping. That track sparked a deeper love for the scene and eventually inspired him to start mixing himself.
Three years later, he has been fully locked in, and life has not been the same since picking up the decks.
#outerbloomaudio #residentdj #dnbmusic #supportgrassrootscollectives

We are Outerbloom Audioβ¨

What is the vision?
It is simple. We are here to create a space where EVERYONE feels welcome, connected and part of something bigger. We are not built on exclusivity, but open to all. We want to collaborate, uplift and show what the scene can be when it moves together.

This conversation needs to happen, but it needs to be the right one. So tell me your thoughts ππ»
The music scene, especially in rave culture, is built on PLUR: Peace, Love, Unity and Respect. It is supposed to mean everyone belongs, regardless of race, gender, sexuality or ability.
But the reality does not always reflect that.
We live in a society where people are protected from discrimination, so there is no excuse for parts of the scene still ignoring or sidelining certain groups.
Women have always had to work harder to be taken seriously. The fact it still surprises people that a woman can own a collective or be an artist within the scene says a lot. Yes, men feel pressure too, but realistically it can often be easier for a man to be noticed in this industry. There is a hierarchy, and it runs from small promoters right up to the biggest companies.
This is not about gender, age, sexual orientation, race, religion, etc. That just creates more division. Misogynistic comments or any comments, intentional or not, are not acceptable. Women already face enough pressure around their appearance, ability and place, so bringing aesthetics into it misses the point. There are better ways to approach these conversations.
This may be a male dominated industry, but there are countless talented women being overlooked. That has to change.
If PLUR actually means something, it has to be lived. Not just said.
If we want to move forward, it has to be about equality, respect and accountability across the board. Always.
