Too many

 I’ve been asking myself what I actually did when I received so many positive vibes from my Czech fans. When I faced violence directed at me in a very well-known situation, I couldn’t understand why it happened. Maybe someone was trying to create doubt around me—but I don’t know how it’s possible for someone to spread falsehoods about the reasons behind what happened to me. Probably, everyone already knows the truth. I don’t believe I ever presented myself as some kind of influencer who would cause such strong reactions, let alone violence. What makes this especially sad for me is the fact that drum and bass, as a culture, stands for non-violence—as well as being anti-racist and pro-LGBTQ, for example. So when someone chooses physical violence as a way to respond to a drum and bass artist, I have to seriously question whether they even belong to this culture or understand its values. I don’t want to speak much more about this violence or the differences between the drum and bass scene in Central Europe and Western Europe. But I do want to say that I probably made the right decision when I told myself to stop chasing what I found through Sidney SN fans in Czechia. For example, I had never seen fans applaud a drum and bass artist’s name on stage before. I appreciated those moments—but I had to ask myself whether that kind of attention was really sustainable for me. I eventually decided it wasn’t, and I needed to step away. I apologize a bit for this decision, for this “Sidney SN behavior,” but I now see it as unsustainable for me to attend any Prague events. For example, when I went to see USK Prague Women during a European Women’s Basketball League match, I told myself: It might be better to move toward Western Europe than to stay surrounded by this reality. I’ve lost interest in Czech events. There was also a moment on a train from Munich to Prague when a boy from the UK said, “Czechs are like human flash!” Maybe it was offensive, but in the context of what’s happening in Czechia right now, especially with “red plans” and societal tensions, I think he was actually right in some way. Maybe I’ll go see another USK match (even though I’m a bit afraid that my presence could make others nervous again, which could affect the game), but for me, attending events in Prague has become something I find emotionally and mentally unsustainable.

Back To Skyward

  01/21/2024

 Sidney SN is there with a new Drum And Bass mix. 

Back To Skyward is not only a full liquid drum and bass, but the mix is a more colorful. 

As Back To Skyward specialty is the vibes of the tracks what I mixed together.

Back To Skyward is little an energetic drum and bass mix by a my energy I don’t want prisoned in my mind.

When I listened When We Were Cool by Boxplot, I wanted to mixing a set with a similarly vibes across whole a drum and bass mix. And a result of the my trying is the Back To Skyward. 

Wen We Were Cool sound as an America vibes (often what in Europe we listening in American movies) as is Boxplot an American men itself.

The mix was been little difficult to mixing for me, but a result is there as Back To Skyward. In the mix are often changing a melodies when in Back To Skyward I mixing liquid drum and bass tracks with a deep drum and bass tracks and with more vocal and instrumental and energetic tracks as is When We Were Cool, Release Yourself, Human Again or RIENK in New Horizon.

I tried also to in Back To Skyward could be a tracks with similarly men vocals as is vocal by James Burki in When We Were Cool and Sam M in Release Yourself or vocal in New Horizon completed what I wanted for a Back To Skyward.

As an American movie, life itself is like a movie someday. And in Back To Skyward mix is also a story of a real life's. Human Again by Boxplot is a life story itself. Listening and download: Back To Skyward

A good days in Potsdam

 I often hear people talk about support for Sidney SN from UK drum and bass artists, but there’s rarely any mention of C Recordings, for example. C Recordings is one of the best German drum and bass labels. I believe people should open their eyes to C Recordings just as they do to many UK drum and bass labels and UK artists. 

But the truth is, when Soulvent Records started liking my posts on Instagram, it was something I didn’t expect. Or take another example—interest from Shogun Audio. I think Soulvent Records and Shogun Audio are right at the top of the drum and bass scene. What really surprised me was what I began seeing in reality. One example is when the name Sidney SN was applauded in Prague clubs. During 2022 and 2023, I often found it hard to believe that people across Europe actually knew the name Sidney SN. And not just people in drum and bass—but also people from other scenes, like the Netherlands techno scene, the progressive scene, or just the general Western European public. And almost every time, the reaction to me was positive. 

When I realized that people all across Western Europe knew about me, it honestly blew my mind—I never expected that kind of popularity across the region. I often asked myself how it was even possible. I used to think drum and bass artists weren’t popular with the general public. But I found that I am popular with the public itself, like in Germany, for example. And even there, the reactions to me were mostly positive every time. The same happened at meetings in France or the Netherlands events. 

And what I see as really positive is that the situation around me—and the things happening in my life—are probably the reason why so many people across Western Europe know who I am. It’s something that told me a lot of good things about Western European society.

LENS - Give Me A Reason (Sidney SN Re:boot) As an Thanks to Ukraine

 It’s totally sad for me what has been happening since the beginning of 2023. There have been situations where I faced problems because of the “red idiots” who want to create a deficit to support a war against Western Europe. The Netherlands has already been affected by Putin’s actions in their sea territory. In 2023, there were also multiple threats from Putin regarding the occupation of the Berlin area, and more. 

Maybe the whole of Europe—or at least Western Europe—should be grateful to the Ukrainian warriors and soldiers, because they are the ones currently protecting and saving all of Western Europe. As a thank you to Ukraine for protecting our homes, Sidney SN is releasing a new track or rework. Give Me A Reason is not just a release because Ukraine is saving us—it’s also released in support of Ukraine. 

Thank you for supporting Sidney SN. Shut down all the red, stupid behavior—and enjoy everything beautiful the world still offers. The bootleg took around six hours to complete in FL Studio. Sometimes, change comes fast—especially when reality gives us no choice. 

Also, based on my experiences with many people—especially Czech people—some say that Putin’s war against Ukraine is just a “Ukrainian issue,” and that countries like Czechia shouldn’t support Ukraine as strongly as some Western countries do. But when someone speaks that way about war, it’s exactly the moment when I say no to the wannabe truth of such people. There was even an attack in Dutch waters that seemed more serious for the Netherlands than the COVID pandemic itself. I’ve said many times that when I visited the Netherlands in summer 2022—my first time there after the pandemic—people there weren’t nervous or in a bad state, unlike in Czechia. The general atmosphere in the Netherlands before and after the pandemic was very different from what I saw in Czechia. And in 2023, people in the Netherlands became visibly more nervous because of Putin’s actions in their waters—something that didn’t happen in 2022. 

That shows clearly: this war is not just against Ukraine. There have been multiple attempts by Putin to threaten Europe’s airspace and launch attacks against Berlin. Also, the pandemic laid the groundwork for certain psychological or behavioral predictions, which may have been part of planning future attacks—especially in places like Czechia. Putin even said he wants to “take back” what was supposedly “stolen” at the end of the 1980s—including the Berlin area. So, saying this war is only a Ukrainian issue is total nonsense. No—it’s another war against Western Europe, and a new war against the EU. The war started after the pandemic. Maybe their plans didn’t go as expected—and we are still here, alive. 

Give Me A Reason (Sidney SN Re:boot) by LENS UK sounds like it’s playing at “volume+”—even more intense than the original version by LENS. This louder, more impactful version makes sense on SoundCloud.
