DJ Krust, IDLES, y DJ Format

Given how omnipresent in today’s music landscape Drum and Bass is, it’s easy to forget what a debt we owe to those that were there at the beginning, the true pioneers of the sound. Krust was there in the heat of the 90s when it was all kicking off and even experienced chart success and subsequent notoriety in the DnB world for timeless tracks like ‘Warhead’.

Now Krust has taken on something of an elder statesman role within the genre and with this comes the respect and adoration of crowds all over the UK. His name on any bill will always attract a crowd of in-the-know fans and he will always reward those who come to see him with a wild set. With a reckless energy, Krust blends contemporary and classic Drum and Bass smashes, seamlessly bringing his world into the present and still making sure it connects with younger audiences. People may never fully appreciate what people like Krust did for the genre they now love, but those that do and seek him out will never be disappointed by what Krust can do behind the decks.

The band to save music from itself.
IDLES are one of the best if not the best live band in the UK. Do not miss them. Raw passion, power, humour and a heartfelt love of what they do.

Matt Ford has been doing his thing for over ten years working hard at is hip-hop DJ skills under the pseudonym, “DJ Format”. Tonight is one of those nights that feature a good few DJ’s throughout the night, but DJ Format is one of the main performers with an hour long set a little bit later this evening, performing into the early hours of the morning. Greeted by a huge amount of applause as he walks onto the stage he wastes no time in launching into his songs, especially his album “If You Can’t Join Em… Beat’ Em”, which came out 9 years ago now but this audience don’t care. They are loving every second of it dancing from start to finish. He performs some tracks from his latest release, “ The Foremost” in the form of songs such as “Get Busy Music” and “Work Song”, both songs that roil up this crowd into a moderate hysteria, with drinks flowing and lyrics being shouted over the in house system.
