Roni Size + MC Fearless

1 upcoming festival

'New Forms' and beyond — Bristol jungle royalty with a Mercury on the shelf, breaks chopped like it's 1997 forever.

Roni Size is a producer and DJ from Bristol, and one of the central figures in the city's drum and bass scene. He co-founded the Full Cycle label alongside DJ Krust, DJ Die and Suv, and led the collective Reprazent, whose 1997 debut brought live bass, drums and vocals into a music that had largely been made from samplers alone. That jazz-inflected, musician-heavy approach became closely identified with the Bristol sound.

He has continued to record and tour steadily since, both solo and with Reprazent. MC Fearless is a British drum and bass MC of long standing, and the pairing works as a DJ-and-host format, with Size handling the mix and Fearless riding the tracks live.
