'Trackers and Breakbeats: Celebrating Brain Records’ Underground Revolution' was an exhibition at The Stephen Lawrence Gallery, University of Greenwich (October/November 2024) exploring 'the groundbreaking influence of Brain Records and its pioneering use of 8-bit technology in the 1990s', highlighting 'the often overlooked yet pivotal role of Brain Records and its founder Bizzy B in shaping the UK hardcore and jungle scenes'. The exhibition featured original studio equipment, flyers, zines, interviews and film.
The scene was centred around Leytonstone in East London where Bizzy B and Dlux ran 2Getherness record shop in the 1990s (238 Leytonstone High Road)

I remember going to 2Getherness Records most Saturdays in early 95. Bizzy B, TDK & DLux were always in there, I remember one Saturday DLux showed me and my friend the basics on how to scratch. TDK playing on the Arcade Machine in the shop and Bizzy B always had the biggest smile as they pumped out the latest tunes!! Leytonstone was buzzing with the sounds of Jungle back in those days, cars pumping it out of their systems, record shops everywhere! Great record shop, great times. Shout out to the Conflict FM crew also!
