90’s Rave Pioneer

Carl Cox is no stranger to the drum & bass sound. He was of course a pioneer of the rave scene in the UK, regularly performing alongside dance music luminaries Fabio & Grooverider, Micky Finn, Jumpin’ Jack Frost, Top Buzz, DJ Ratty & the likes throughout the early 90’s.

Over the past years he’s dipped his toe into the D&B pool a couple of times on the Eats Everything ‘Edible Beats’ show, and then again performing an all vinyl Hospital Records Showcase on his own Cabin Fever live streams.

He professes his love for the drum and bass sound during the show saying, “This music is so important to me because of its pioneering nature of breakbeat & basslines“.

He went on to give a very brief history lesson of the sound expressing that, “It all started off with breakbeat coming from America, but the UK adopted a drum & bass London sound.

You couldn’t get away from how powerful this sound was!
