[NYC] 10/14 DARKROOM ft. DISTANCE (UK) @ PUBLIC ASSEMBLY
Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2011 9:12 pm
After a month off working on various projects and enjoying the rest of the summer, DARKROOM is back, bringing in another heavyweight, and one of the originators of the Dubstep sound, for the October installment of Brooklyn's Official Dubstep Monthly.
Friday, October 14th
DARKROOM
Feat.
DISTANCE
(Chestplate | Planet Mu | Tectonic | UK)
DJ Distance hails from the South London dubstep nucleus and is an originator of the dubstep sound. He has been involved in its development since its early years and has produced tracks with the likes of Skream, Benga, Pinch and Cyrus.
With a background of heavy metal and experimental industrial music, his approach to dubstep is truly different to any others. Whilst many producers reference influences such as King Tubby to Lee Scratch Perry, Distance main influence hails from the likes of Sepultura, Pantera, Korn and System of a Down.
Distance as producer, DJ and label owner (Chestplate Recordings), has been pushing things in a direction all of his own. Gathering early support from the legendary John Peel and going on to be part of the utterly seminal Dubstep Warz show on Radio 1 presented by Mary Anne Hobbs, Distance has forged a name for himself as a critical figure in the scene.
DJ Distance is a regular at the seminal raves such as FWD, DMZ, Exodus, SUB: DUB and more. His DJ bookings have taken him across the globe where he devastates dance floors and sound systems in his own unimitable style.
Distance's recorded output is also formidable, finding homes on labels as underground and seminal as Hotflush, Tectonic and Boka in his early career, to ending up on the world reputed Planet Mu, on which Distance released his debut album in 2007.
Highlights of his production repertoire include 'V'; a track that stomps, crunches and growls with a bass line that slices through any person on the dancefloor; it's a track that showcases Distance's fraught and angry production style. Conversely another Distance classic, 'Feel Me' oozes something far less overtly aggressive; all motorik hypnotik groove and ring modulated synth squeel. Distance's studio has spawned multiple stone cold killers over a range of styles but all uniquely Distance, highlighting why his new releases are some of the most highly anticipated in the scene.
If you’re a fan of heavy metal, industrial rock, dub, reggae and techno….then this is the sound for you. Though hard to relate these binary opposite genres together, somehow…DJ Distance does just that.
Alongside Darkroom Residents:
DAVE GEE | TRIGON | IRON MYKE
Darkroom Master of Ceremony:
DIGGADEE MC
Dave GEE has been heavily involved in the North American Dubstep scene for the last few years. He is a founder and resident at DARKROOM, which is known as Brooklyn’s official Dubstep monthly.

Diggadee MC Has launched from the world of Drum n' Bass and landed on planet Dubstep. Although Dnb will always be the main ingredient on Diggadee's menu, the Dubstep movement brings a more expansive range of musical awareness. Performing with many of the biggest names in Drum n' Bass from around the world, Diggadee has also managed to work with the biggest names in Dubstep as well i.e. Skream, Benga, Borgore, Datsik & 12th Planet; to name a few. As the two genre's seem to intertwine, the ability to vibe and adapt is necessary in an ever changing music scene. MC Diggadee, Diggadee MC...the spaceship has landed.
