Description
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. He also launched the Gutterfunk label, showcasing diverse genres and artists, and remains an influential figure in the dance music world, constantly innovating with new sounds and projects.
