BS04GF: DJ Die

An integral part of legendary Bristol jungle/D&B label and collective Full Cycle together with Roni Size, Krust and Suv, DJ Die remains a fiercely innovative and exciting musician – more than two decades after the zenith of the Bristol sound. Now head of the Gutterfunk label and artist stable, he may have moved into more of a support role of late, but can definitely still light up a dance floor. Catch Die in Shibuya over a long Friday night: things kick off with a warm-up programme at Toranoko Shokudo, where four local DJs will be exploring Die's musical roots, while the man himself will be appearing at Star Lounge nearby a few hours later. Consider buying a ticket in advance, as these include free entry to Toranoko Shokudo.
