SUB/stance proudly welcomes EQ50 co-founder and legendary Jungle/Drum & Bass pioneer DJ Flight (UK), alongside a selection of Perth's finest selectors to celebrate the history and legacy she's built, spanning over 25 years.
DJ Flight is one of the foundations of Drum & Bass. She is an award-winning DJ, broadcaster, radio producer, and co-founder of EQ50 – a collective of women working towards fairer representation in dance music.
2022 marked a string of successes for Flight as she celebrated 25 years of playing exquisite sets to music fans across the globe. The ’25 Years of Flight’ European tour culminated with a blistering b2b set with DJ Storm at Boiler Room Festival Amsterdam, a monumental two-hour soundscape that has amassed over 600,000 views on YouTube so far. Flight closed off the year with a DJ Mag award for ‘Outstanding Contribution’ to dance music while Mixmag named her one of the ‘DJs Who Defined The Year’.
In 2023, ‘Turn It Up: A Short History of Drum & Bass’, a BBC Sounds documentary produced and narrated by Flight, was nominated in the ‘Best Music Special’ category at Radio Academy’s ARIAS. This radio production followed ‘Windrush Stories’, an award-winning podcast series that garnered widespread acclaim for its beautiful exploration of the Caribbean experience in Britain.
Flight has a rare mystical talent that transcends time and space. For over a quarter of a century, her star has been in ascendance. Flight’s influence on the scene has been immense and in March 2023 the New York Times wrote of her inspiration to a whole new generation of artists, including Nia Archives.
Flight regularly plays at Rupture and residencies have included Metalheadz and Swerve. She has produced music with Breakage, and released on labels such as Reinforced, Bassbin, Critical, The North Quarter, and Carbon. In 2005, Flight started her own label – play:musik – which launched the career of several up and coming producers.
Flight gained worldwide recognition when she became the first woman to host a national Drum & Bass show. The Next Chapter on BBC Radio 1Xtra was a seminal fixture that quickly became The Holy Grail for discovering new styles and experimental sounds.
Flight recently returned to the airwaves with a new monthly radio show every third Wednesday 9–11pm, on the legendary and freshly relaunched Kool FM.
Rounding out the lineup are Jaise, Devo, Syrus & I33a for an event packed full of proper underground Drum & Bass.
