FACTORY proudly present: friday 20th JUNE AN UNPRECEDENT LINE UP! -dj DIE -dj HAZARD -MISS REPRESENT -mc JUNIOR RED OPEN AIR! @Villaggio Globale , Rome -Lungotevere Testaccio -Via monte dei Cocci DJ DIE [img]http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk217/sarasani/djdie2.jpg[/img] [/b] The founder of one of drum'n'bass' leading promoters, that of Full Cycle Records, is dance guru DJ Die. Having been slicing and dicing since the early '90s, DJ Die hooked up with Roni Size and DJ Krust in 1993 and individually signed the musicians to Full Cycle in 1993. The ever-changing face in dance music was on its way to becoming full and respondent to the current fads and circuit around the U.K. dance scene, specifically in and around their native Bristol. Throughout the '90s, DJ Die maintained Full Cycle while producing and remixing for electronica newcomers like Suv, Bill Riley, and J-Raq. He also became a familiar face while working with Roni Size in the projects of Reprazent and Breakbeat Era. Countless singles were also released throughout the decade, but the new millennium saw the surface of the pinch-hitting label collection Full Cycle: Through the Eyes: Presented by Die. DJ HAZARD [img]http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk217/sarasani/hazard.jpg[/img] Those outside of Birmingham may not have heard of DJ Hazard, but for those that haven’t, it’s a question of when they hear his name, not if. The new addition to the True Playaz family, and the first to stand alongside the mighty Hype, Zinc and Pascal on a more permanent basis is, for his 25 years, remarkably undaunted by the task of keeping up with the label’s founding fathers. Coming from a ragga and hip-hop background, Hazard found he was drawn to drum and bass by the heavy drums and pounding basslines of the sound of jungle and to this date, that’s reflected in his music, with a heavy emphasis on the drum sound of each track. His love of phat beats is audible in everything he does, although with tracks such as his imminent first release for True Playaz, ‘Rubber Chicken/No More Games’ it’s evident that he also plunders a diverse and genre-spanning pool for his influences. Regular slots on Midlands pirate station Kool FM and a handful of vinyl releases set the scene for when Hype made the call to see if Hazard was interested in joining the Playaz cru. When he found out that he wasn’t signed, Hype and the Playaz wasted no time in bringing him into the fold. Frequent live outings at Birmingham’s Que Club, H2O and CO:DE and a handful of European dates has set Hazard in good stead for moving up to the next level, as from February 2003, he is a regular on the bill at the Real Playaz monthly sessions at Fabric in London.
