Something about Sidney SN

 

    Sidney SN is a passionate lover of liquid drum and bass.

 
 ‘Dad, he looks as an Aussie.' -
 He first stepped into Liquid drum and bass releases world in 2016. His first release was Memories on a Future, followed by For a Better World in 2017—an important milestone that also became a kind of mission statement. 

Sidney SN was especially inspired by YouTube platforms like Chilloutbear, which featured early tracks from now well-known liquid DnB artists. He also drew influence from Liquiddnbftw and from the vibes of countries like Australia, the Netherlands, and California, as well as from the very systems of existence itself. 

Initially, he wanted to create full liquid DnB mixes using the music he discovered through those platforms. Eventually, he developed his own mixing style, which has earned him support from top-tier drum and bass labels and communities. 

Although now a recognized name, Sidney SN began mixing as a side pursuit. His personal approach to life likely played a key role in his success. “Sidney” is the English version of his real name, and “SN” connects to his actual surname. The influence of Australia is also embedded in his identity—originally inspired by the city of Sydney, and evolving into Sidney SN. 

While he’s primarily focused on liquid DnB, in 2019 he began incorporating deep drum and bass into his mixes, influenced by artists like Kyrist, Alix Perez, and others. Kyrist, in particular, was a turning point—even though Sidney had doubts, one of her sets changed his perspective. Even so, deep DnB remains secondary in his mixes. He blends it with liquid DnB, often reshaping deep DnB through his emotive style. 

At his core, Sidney SN is—and always will be—strictly liquid drum and bass. It’s the essence of who he is.

For Sidney SN, the best of the best of all times in drum and bass is track LIFE/THRILLS feat. NAMGAWD by Metrik. A video at Hospital Records YouTube channel demonstrated exactly it, why Sidney SN started with his music. A Sidney SN idea in his music should feel like a warm beach and a summer night fire, people surfing atop of the waves, surrounded by skyscrapers, lush gardens, the Universe, and harmonious biotopes.
