About

Put on your scariest costumes and as Shutdown welcomes one of Bristol’s best home grown artists and absolute pioneers of the scene, DJ DIE. Bristol has been a significant hub for British dance music over the past 20 years, especially in genres like jungle, drum & bass, and dubstep. Central to this scene is DJ Die, who moved to Bristol in 1985 and became a key figure in the city’s music evolution. His career began in the 1980s, influenced by Bristol-based collectives like Wild Bunch, and led him to collaborate with notable names like Roni Size. Together, they produced jungle/D&B classics, founded the Full Cycle label, and won a Mercury Music Prize with their group Reprazent. Die’s career has spanned decades, evolving from rave and house music to jungle and D&B. His work includes collaborations with famous artists like Method Man and Pharoahe Monch, and projects like Breakbeat Era and I-Kamanchi. In 2007, he founded his own label, Clear Skyz, which has continued to foster new D&B talent, and launched the Gutterfunk label, showcasing diverse genres and artists. DJ Die remains an influential figure in the dance music world, constantly innovating with new sounds and projects, such as ‘Watch The Ride’, a D&B collective featuring DJ Die, Dismantle, and the late great, DJ Randall. Completing the lineup we have NOOCH, BUDDEN, FLURO and SONDERR 🚀 Please note that ‘Free Entry’ tickets are only valid until 11PM.
