After giving so much, drum & bass want to give a little back.
Diane Charlemague was someone who gave the drum & bass scene everything, so in response to her passing, some of the genre's figure heads are going to give a little back.

In memory of Diane and her incredible career Goldie, Grooverider, Doc Scott, Fabio, London Elekricity and Bailey have teamed up with Soul In Motion for The Blue Night, that'll be a night of remembrance and pay tribute to one of the UK's greatest voices.

The band hit it big in the 80s with tracks The Key, The Secret and Feels Like Heaven that are still being played on daytime radio today. The Urban Cookie Collective threw her voice into the limelight of UK dance scene. As the years went on she kept herself relevant working with many artists, gifting her voice to their productions. Whether she meant to or not, she managed to create a collection of high duty tracks, game changes, the kind of tracks that give you goosebumps.
