The best known face and sound in American drum and bass for over a decade belong to Brooklyn-based Dieselboy, aka Damian Higgins. Now an international icon in this volatile, UK-originated underground dance music movement, Dieselboy is the most in demand American d&b DJ on the global club, festival and rave circuits on six continents. Always keen to build alliances within the d&b community, Dieselboy has toured with other DJ’s including Technical Itch & Decoder, DJ Rap, DJ Fresh, Bad Company UK, and Hive.
Truly one of the world’s great ambassadors of drum & bass. In 2000 Dieselboy united with two other North American d&b legends, AK1200 and DJ Dara to create a d&b super-tour, the Planet of the Drums. With MC Messinian who joined in 2001, the POTD moved d&b out of the side rooms and onto the main stages. 2008 marks the POTD’s 9th tour, the longest running annual electronic dance music tour of any genre.
Last month Dieselboy killed it to a sold out crowd and to show our appreciation we will be giving away a signed event poster. This is a serious 16×25” coroplast sign in full colour that was marked up personally by Damien just after he finished his set. To enter simply leave a comment below on this page telling us who you would suggest we book as one of our next dnb headliners. Do you have a favorite drum and bass DJ or Producer?

When Orlando native AK 1200 started his career in electronic music in the late ’80s, almost no one in the country had ever heard of it. Nevertheless, the artist managed to carve out an extremely successful career in the realm of underground electronic music while simultaneously introducing countless people to the up-and-coming genre. At this point, he boasts one of the most illustrious careers of anyone in the business. He is not only a DJ, but also a producer, promoter, remixer, magazine publisher, and record store owner, not to mention a pioneer of breakbeat, jungle, and drum’n’bass.
