After a weekend of the world apparently coming to an end due to some snow, BUG is back with some tasty treats for you. Coming up this week we have an interview with D&B heroes The Insiders as well as loads of downloads and more. So keep it locked to BUG.
First up make sure you keep an eye on On A Hype where they'll be keeping everybody up to date with all the latest UKHD mixes from their Passion FM radio show. The blog continues to impress and is a vital destination if you're looking for local news on garage, grime, funky and more.
There's a great interview with Rob Smith over at Highrise Clothing's blog. Chris Highrise is always raising the levels and bringing some quality content to his blog so keep checking back there. Its a fascinating in-depth read with one of the true legends of the Bristol music community, so get yourself over there to take a look.
Another BUG favourite in Peverelist has contributed a candid interview via Richard Carnage to Resident Advisor, a truly monumental interview in our opinion which covers some interesting ground. Good news also reaches us that Orchestral Lab by Guido will make it's release on Punch Drunk soon, which is cause for celebration if ever we heard it.
Last week we brought you the Bristol: Rise Up special from Mary Anne Hobbes show, and this week we had to include her first podcast for XLR8R. Normally we wouldn't feature mixes from artists outside of Bristol (kind of defeats the point of the blog otherwise!) - but this mix features seven Bristol-based artists so it seems churlish to not put it up!

Just a little heads up too: BUG will be going live this year all over Bristol, showcasing the best local artists in all manner of environments. For our first event, we'll be joining up with the legendary Empathy to provide you with some fantastic music at the newly launched Basement 45 (formerly The Mandrake) on Fri 13th March.
Unlucky for some maybe, but not anybody who ventures down to check out our room featuring long-time BUG favourite and GlitchNight mainstay Polestar alongside [SIC], The Kelly Twins, Andy Payback Hi-Fi and Dave Kirik. Something for everybody and all for a fiver in advance.
Back to present times and of course this weekend it's Valentines, so prepare to empty them wallets in the dim hope of a bunk up at the following events:
SeasonFive are really going from strength to strength at the moment and this event looks to be another step in the right direction with a rock solid line-up for the discerning amongst you.
If you fancy something a little more rough and tough then head down to Clockwork for Beat Bristol, with a seriously bass-heavy roster of big names.
If you prefer to party on Friday 13th instead (two this year - yikes!) then head down to The Croft for Liquid Lounge's 3rd Birthday, and with 3 amazing local bands and more DJs beside, this is definitely 100% BUG approved.
