UK Thursday Presents DJ SS & Ajapai

July 17th, 2011 | By AngFox

UK Thursdays teams up with FakeLife + Kriticz Dezinez to bring you Summer Sensations with DJ SS (UK) and Ajapai (Japan).

AJAPAI
(Rottun Recordings | Tokyo, Japan)

Earning the The 4th Annual Beatport Music Award for best Drum and Bass track with “Incoming… (Taku Remix)” Ajapai is once again another successful bass slinger from the Rottun Recording family.

“…coming from the country that has probably inspired every sound to do with Dubstep, (transformers, beast wars, anime) Ajapai aint no japanese pop producer.

His tracks will literally eat you with their dramatic build ups and trip hopping main wobble. Vocals from robots, transforming, malfunctioning, confirmations, machine gun chattering all infect this song like a virus spreading its hairy tentacles…”

DJ SS
(Formation Records | Leicester, England)

One of the UK’s finest DJ/Producers and one of the founders of Formation Records, DJ SS aka Leroy Small is an original breakbeat pioneer who has made an immense contribution to today’s drum & bass sound.

SS is one of the very select DJ / Producers who has been there right from the start, due to the hard work and dedication that he puts into his music. When the hardcore scene exploded SS was there and hasn’t looked back.

Today SS spends most of his time producing in the studio and travelling all over the world to DJ and promote his brand “World of Drum & Bass”. His travels have taken him throughout Europe, Australia, Canada, the United States of America and Asia. When SS has any spare time he is dedicated to football and is an ardent Manchester United fan and an enthusiastic local football player.

DJ-SS is now celebrating 20 years of Formation records, and 11 years of World of Drum & Bass which is the longest consecutive D&B tour and a phenomenal achievement in any music genre.

Doors open at 9 PM, more details soon!
