ALIX PEREZ
With two incredible and highly acclaimed DnB albums under his belt on Shogun Audio as well as collaborations with the foremost names in drum’n’bass, including Noisia, Marcus Intalex, dBridge, and Calibre just to name a few. Alix decided to push things further by collaborating with Dj Rashad, DJ Spinn and Stray on an E.P for the highly esteemed Exit Records as their landmark 50th release. “U” perfectly displays Alix’ abilities to create something completely fresh, heavy, classy, immaculate and brand new. This EP is Alix’ foray into a hybrid of Juke, bass, hip-‐hop and footwork influenced style of drum’n’bass, with his own distinct London slant on it. Alix’s incredible output over the years as well his eclectic DJ sets have regarded as one of the most ground-‐breaking and innovative producer/DJ’s of his time and the perfect headliner for our Circles Launch!
