DJ Food

Joe Driscoll
Black Grass

Plus soundcrash residents
Now, we like to pull out the stops and bring you some packed-out, top-drawer events for real, but this time we've got a super heavy show for you. We've got veterans in the form of DJ Food and nasty newcomers like JD73 launching his album and throwing it down for a titanic night of beats and live music. Joe Driscoll, Black Grass, the list goes on – granted after that it only goes on as far as Soundcrash residents the Red Alert Soundsystem, but they one Hollerific crew, holding things together like super-glue…
DJ Food is one of the most innovative projects in contemporary music. It is not a person, or a band, or a DJ collective, it is its own entity. An entity which now, handled by Strictly Kev is rocking dancefloors the world over with a mix of jazzy, funky breaks, bootlegs and hip hop, usually building to a drum & bass crescendo that has the crowd going nuts. DJ Food is a tour de force of balance, timing and unmatchable deck-craftsmanship. But you already knew that.

JD73 (JazzDoctor73) is the alter ego of Leeds based musician/producer Dan Goldman. A regular face on the UK/International music scene for over 10 years, Touring with Morcheeba and TY and remixing Nightmares on Wax, releasing several groundbreaking singles under the JD73 moniker – the boy doesn't stop. Rest assured, the best part of the story is only just beginning, it's beginning right here with this album and we are proud to be able to bring you the launch party.

Joe Driscoll is a latter day one man band, effortlessly fusing hip-hop, reggae, soul, folk and rock to create a completely original and unique sound. He is an innovator not only for the genre-defying music he creates, but for the groundbreaking way in which he performs it. A true renaissance man, Driscoll is a lone figure on stage and in the studio, yet creates the soundscape of a full band utilizing heavy vocal percussion, an array of instruments, a loop pedal, and a lot of imagination. There's beat box, layers of guitar, mbira, bass, verse, and rhyme created by the man himself. Everything you hear is live! www.joedriscoll.net -- www.myspace.com/joedriscoll
Black Grass' sound, described as a "pantomime of styles" by Mex, is hip hop minded but not hip hop, edgy but not obscurely underground, covering territory from dusty funk and jazz to soul to party beats. Black Grass has gained acclaim across the board from both DJs and music fans and after twenty years, Mex has developed a reputation as one of the world's leading DJ's, admired as both a selector, a producer and a man of inimitable style. Tonight he comes at you with both a rapper and a vocalist, in blistering full live mode. www.black-grass.com -- www.myspace.com/blackgrassmusic
Cheeba is the genre twisting turntablist at the forefront of the ‘Best Club Night in Bristol’ The Detectives of Perspective (Venue Magazine Award 2006). Cheeba has been found playing in a wealth of venues and club nights from Bishopston to Bedminster and beyond including a residency at Solid Steel in Bristol, and we’re more than happy to have him along at soundcrash this month.
