8U8A has published the track list for his show on Scientific Sound Asia. The platform operates as an English-language electronic music radio station for Asia, alongside its work as a DJ agency, promoter and music news outlet.
8U8A is a Russian DJ who began his music career as a Drum and Bass and Jungle MC in 2004. He later became a vocalist before deciding in 2007 to combine DJing and MC work, building a bass music collection that focused on Dubstep, Grime and Garage.
By 2011, his attention had moved towards the Global Bass scene, expanding his selections across Baile Funk, Moombahton, Kuduro, Dancehall, Dembow, Cumbia, Trap, Jersey Club, Footwork, Jungle and related subgenres. That broad collection helped shape a sound rooted in bass pressure, rhythmic variation and international club influences.
In 2014, 8U8A began travelling with the aim of sharing his music collection and performing across new scenes. He later connected with friends in South East Asia and appeared in Vietnam, Cambodia and Indonesia.
His microphone work and DJ sets have brought his bass-led sound to crowds across Asia. Now based between Ho Chi Minh City and Mui Ne, he is part of the Scientific Sound Asia DJ agency and performs regular shows through the station. Updates can be found through his Facebook page, while one of his earlier station appearances is available on Mixcloud.
8U8A’s Global Bass episode 19 was broadcast on 15 March 2021, with a selection that moves through Footwork, Jungle, Dubstep and wider bass-led club music. Addison Groove opens with Laguna and Dreamscape 12, placing the first section inside Bass Music through his hybrid use of Footwork, Jungle, Acid, Hip Hop and Dubstep.
Dreamscape 12 keeps the opening focused on fast rhythm, clipped percussion and Bristol-rooted low-end pressure. Manuel Printzen’s Rainbow Palace follows in a Jungle edit, moving the episode towards Jungle with a break-led structure.
Alexandre’s Enough brings a broader Bass Music cut into the early section before 5iame5e’s Inna Heart shifts the mix into Dubstep. Flux Pavilion’s Bass Cannon then appears in Alfred’s Japanese Deconstruction, using the original’s heavy low-end identity inside a rebuilt club edit.
Neekeetone and 1ndv continue the Dubstep section with Chanstep Numba Two, keeping the rhythm sparse and bass-focused. Alex Barbarian’s Eventually then opens the sound again, sitting between low-end club music and experimental bass forms.
Baauer’s Aether moves the episode into Global Bass, drawing on his wider catalogue across trap, bass and international club influences. Opal Block’s A-Train follows with another bass-led cut before Cormano’s Los Tiempos De Antes appears in the Fonobisa edit.
Eric Uh’s Feeling High and Djs Winning Eleven’s Flashbax pull the mix back into Footwork / Juke, using faster rhythmic patterns and chopped movement. 6Blocc’s Notanother Songremix then starts a Jungle run, supported by his long-standing catalogue around Jungle breaks and Ragga Jungle.
Coco Bryce follows with Rising High and The Unseen, bringing the set into a modern Jungle sound built from break manipulation and rave-rooted detail. 6Blocc’s My Melody appears in a 160 Jungle Rekut, keeping the tempo and break structure aligned with the surrounding material.
Black Marble Collective’s Emerald Tree Boa with Sideswipe moves the programme back towards Global Bass, adding a more colourful club rhythm. E.Reflexion’s Monster Pizza Truck then returns to Footwork / Juke, setting up Famitsu’s Mind Software and On The Run.
Those two Famitsu tracks keep the central section quick, synthetic and rhythmically tight. Fff’s Digikal General brings Jungle back into focus, using the producer’s long association with breakcore, ragga-jungle and hardcore-edged breakbeat music.
Gecin’s 40° shifts the mix into Global Bass before Baja Frequencia’s Mochi Mocha adds another cross-regional club entry. Etc!etc! and Los Dutis follow with Plebes, keeping the section tied to Latin and global club rhythms.
Hasse De Moor’s Skrrrt introduces Trap, adding a more rigid and percussive club sound. Holly and Sebastian Reynoso then move back into Bass Music through Angel Fire, using both artists’ connection to weighty electronic club production as a guide.
New Sylveon and Zwonkybeats’ Не Покину Этот returns the set to Global Bass, widening the episode beyond UK and American club forms. Jacques Greene and Yung Gud’s No Excuse then appears in the DJ Animebby edit, shifting into Footwork / Juke through the edit’s faster club rhythm.
Amen The Producer’s Sunshine, X.Wilson’s Club Indica and Hollis P Monroe’s I'm Lonely in Alek’s Juked Out edit keep the episode in Footwork / Juke. Phyliss Jaxson’s Snap & Roll and Skymning’s Cigs & Bread extend that run with more chopped rhythmic movement.
Machinedrum and Rochelle Jordan’s The Relic closes the Footwork / Juke section with a hybrid of R&B vocal texture, aggressive bass and neuro-footwork structure. Oski and Leotrix then return to Dubstep with Bump N Bang, adding a sharper low-end club track before the final stretch.
Raumskaya’s Iris moves into Bass Music before Regal86’s Untouchable brings the set back towards Global Bass. Rhythm Baboon’s The Lizard King introduces Breakbeat, adding a broken rhythmic passage before the episode turns towards reggae and Jungle forms.
The Ethiopians’ Train To Skaville appears in the Rise remix edit, adding a Dancehall and ska-rooted reference within the closing section. Exile and MC Spyda then move into Drum and Bass with Salvation, using MC pressure and faster rhythm to raise the final pace.
6Blocc’s Babylonbwoy 2020 brings the closing section back to Jungle, drawing from his Ragga Jungle and breakbeat catalogue. Turno, Annix and Flowdan close the episode with Active, ending the 15 March 2021 broadcast on a Drum and Bass track built around Flowdan’s vocal weight and a direct club rhythm.
The episode moves from Addison Groove’s Footwork and Jungle-influenced opening into Dubstep, Global Bass, Trap, Jungle and Drum and Bass. Its structure captures 8U8A’s 2021 Global Bass focus, connecting UK sound-system forms with international club rhythms and break-led bass music.
