We sat down with Nathan X, the creator of Unorthodox, the UK’s leading queer drum & bass movement, ahead of their set at Becky Hill's You / Me / Us Pool Party earlier in the summer, to find out what's on their rider, why they love the genre so much, and their go-to dance moves.
It’s the energy! It’s just always next level when you put it on. Everyone absolutely loves it, it’s insane. I love the progression of the music, how it’s evolved so much in the last few years and how it’s finding common spaces in places like Ibiza, even Ibiza Rocks.
I just love being involved in the genre, being a DJ and getting stuck into the music wherever and whenever.

And most importantly, a Lost Mary vape. I could not be DJing without a Lost Mary vape.

Well of course, the answer is yes! Let us break it down for you...
