Dan ‘DJ Fresh’ Stein is set to take another step up in his
illustrious career by launching his incredible live show in late 2011.
FRESH/LIVE aims to amplify the club experience by incorporating a full live
band to perform Fresh’s latest and greatest tracks in authentic fashion. One of the originators of
drum&bass, Fresh began his career as founding member of the supergroup Bad
Company. In ‘98 when Fresh was still 19, the group released The Nine - a track
that was to later be voted the best d&b tune of all time by D&B Arena.
Not bad for a guy still in his teens!After winning many awards with BC,
including KMAG’s best album of 2000, he teamed up with Adam F in 2003 to found
Breakbeat Kaos. The label quickly became a tastemaker, championing Pendulum’s
game-changing album Hold Your Colour and playing host to Fresh’s critically
acclaimed debut LP, Escape from Planet Monday. But in the last 12 months, DJ
Fresh has truly become a household name with the huge success of tracks like
Gold Dust & Louder. With Louder notching up over 500,000 sales and being

all-important drums is the magnificent Kodish, a man with over 10 years
experience as a drummer in the scene, having performed with such eminent acts
as Moving Fusion, BC and Pendulum. His involvement with the scene that Fresh
has helped establish speaks volumes of his understanding of the music and its
roots. With Fresh himself on the keys and the decks, this exciting new concept
is set to stun crowds into submission and tear up dancefloors across the
nation. Make sure you don’t miss out on this year’s biggest live event!Listen song here:YouTube
