Andy C
Headlining this Drum ‘n’ Bass spectacular is Andy C.
Andy C is one of the key protagonists of the Drum ‘n’ Bass movement. He has become a global ambassador for Drum ‘n’ Bass, and is regarded as one of the greatest DJs to ever grace the wheels of steel.
The founder of influential label Ram Records, Andy C has dedicated almost two decades of his life to the music he loves, jetting across the globe, showcasing his turntable mastery. Skills that have earned him a status as one of the most iconic and important figures in global dance music culture.
Never stopping for a moment, Andy C has just completed his UK tour ‘Alive’, which has proven so popular that he will be returning in the New Year for another stab. Mixing audio-visual multi media with his music for this show, Andy C has proves that his innovation knows no bounds.
Having just completed a massive 5-date supertour of Australia with Stereosonic, and being recently crowned No 1 Drum N Bass DJ for the 13th Year running at the DNB Arena Awards, the man they call the Executioner isn’t softening up… In fact, he’s sharpening his axe.
MC GQ
Acting as the middleman between the DJ and the crowd, MC GQ will be revving up his vocal chords alongside Andy C.
GQ’s partnership approach to DJ’s has kept him at the top of his game since the 90s. You can often find GQ with Hype at One Nation or Goldie at a Metalheadz Session. His versatile style means he can keep the crowd bubbling to a liquid set then switch up to double time and tear down a rave.
Camo & Krooked
Camo & Krooked are made up of Austrian duo Reinhard Rietsch and Markus Wagner. In a short space of time they have become one of the hottest production outfits in Europe. Producing together since 2007, Grooverider hailed them as “one of the biggest talents in Drum ‘N’ Bass”.
The Viennese duo have created a whirl of dancefloor anthems in recent times; releasing dancefloor bombs like ‘Turn Up the Music’ ‘Watch it Burn’ and ‘Climax’ on Hospital Records.
With a number of successful releases in the bag, the duo, are now signed exclusively to Hospital Records. Thanks to their first class studio work, Camo & Krooked have a hectic DJ schedule, touring the globe on the back of their debut album ‘Cross The Line’. ‘Cross The Line’ is a fourteen-track rollercoaster ride of emotive dance that firmly establishes Camo & Krooked as dance leaders outside of the Drum ‘N’ Bass sphere, delving into dubstep, drumstep, electro-house and everything in between.
Fierce
Fierce is very much a DJ’s DJ. Having been at the forefront of the Drum ‘n’ Bass scene since the mid 90s, known as the Tech Step era, Fierce first made a name for himself on the genre-busting imprint, ‘No U-Turn’ at the tender age of 16.
Since then Fierce has defined the scene with his own exciting brand of energetic Drum ‘n’ Bass. In 2009, Fierce launched his own label, Quarantine, working alongside producers Break, Optiv, D-Bridge and Silent Witness.
With a long standing career leaving Fierce regarded as one of the most exciting and energetic DJs in Drum ‘n’ Bass, Fierce has proven his skills are transferable from the decks to the studio. Fierce brings sounds from across the spectrum and uniquely fuses them to create a new and fresh sound every time. With an undying love of turntables and vinyl, Fierce is a definite must see DJ.
