Jay Cunning

Scene kingpin, underground hero and champion of breakbeat riddims for well over a decade, Jay Cunning is a rare, award-winning bastion of cutting edge dance music whose influence stretches way beyond the level of your average DJ/producer/promoter. From his residencies at London club nights Gatecrasher and Ram Records at the legendary The End to his pioneering, four-year weekly show on Kiss FM and his hugely successful Menu Music imprint (alongside Terry Hooligan), Cunning has always positioned himself at the apex where dangerous drums meet searing low end. Jay announced himself by dropping dubplates on DJ Luck’s Lush FM back in the late 90s, and quickly went on to win iDJ and Musik Magazine’s monthly mixtape competitions in the same month. He was featured in iDJ’s 'one’s to watch' list in
