The city of Bristol has been the epicenter for multitudes of bass culture and innovative movements.
Portishead, Massive Attack and Tricky pulled Jamaican dub and hip hop into new forms of psychedelic trip hop. Smith and Mighty, Roni Size, V Recordings, Full Cycle and so many more brought the rugged breakbeats through their jungle vision… and then there’s the whole Dubstep community built around the now infamous labels Tectonic, Punch Drunk and more recently Livity Sound headed up by Pev aka Tom Ford. Ultimately there’s to many artists and labels to cover but we know one thing… breakbeat music wouldn’t be the same without Bristol.
On Thursday 16th May we come inna dance to celebrate this unique city and its creative output! Boh fucken selectah!”
