After a jam-packed January full of birthday and New Year celebrations, we continue into February with a whole host of mouth watering line-ups
We begin proceedings in Glasgow on 1 Feb where top drum and bass night Pangea will be starting a new monthly residency at The Art School. Headliner for the night is Linden of Nerve Recordings; speaking of which, check out our feature with them on page 49 (11pm-3am, £5). If you fancy things a bit harder then over in Edinburgh on the same night, Melly will be playing a live set at Damage down at Studio 24 (10.30pm-3am, £5/free). Staying in the capital, on Thurs 7 Feb you can catch J Bostron playing at free night Red Star Institute at Red (10pm-3am). The following night, 8 Feb, sees breaks night Az-Tech return to The Caves with Breakspoll newcomer of the year, Hexadecimal (10.30pm-3am, £7/£5). On the same night at The Bongo Club, Xplicit will be displaying the talents of US-based double act Saburuko (10.30pm-3am, £tbc). Back at The Caves on Fri 15 Feb, Dutch act Black Sun Empire will be providing the sounds for night Technical Resistance (10.30pm-3am, £10/£9).

The following Friday (22 Feb) hosts top breaks act Atomic Hooligan taking over the Reading Rooms in Dundee (10pm-3am, £10/£8). Last but certainly not least, on 22 Feb Xplicit are at Potterow in Edinburgh with a colossal line-up: Dillinja, Mampi Swift and Lynx will all be headlining (10pm-3am, £tbc). Xplicit resident MC, Tonn Piper is currently in the nominations for best breakthrough MC at this year's drum and bass awards. You can vote for him at www.drumandbassawards.com.
It's good to see a diverse mix of club nights this month. Whether you're into the filthiest drum and bass or the bassiest dubstep, I'm sure you'll find something to sink your teeth into. [Al Majik]
