Z-Trip combines oldskool, newskool, classic rock & underground hip hop as the DJ 'Rock God' who can turn two totally disparate musical elements into a two-headed lovechild.

One of the most sought after DJs worldwide, Z-Trip can be found opening for the Rolling Stones in 450,000 capacity rock arenas or tearing it up at intimate sweaty club shows.

A Z-Trip set can seem like someone has scavenged their way into your record collection… and your parents’ and your little sister’s and even your grandparents’…picked out all the choice tunes and turned the whole thing on its head. A passionate digger, Z-Trip’s extremely deep record crates carry some of the rarest breaks and beats in the business.

In any killer set, Z-Trip spins & masterfully mixes everything from dancehall to funk to hip-hop to drum 'n' bass to house to techno to rock, and everything in between. He has also become known for his custom live mash-up's, taking indie tunes like Jane's Addiction's 'Jane Says' and remixing it with Jay-Z's 'H.O.V.A' live on 2 turntables.


Lifesavas are the hottest new crew from the Quannum stable, home to luminaries Blackalicious, DJ Shadow and Latyrx. Their debut album 'Spirit In Stone' introduced the world to VURSATYL's soulful flow; the harsher, gruff delivery and solid, inventive production of JUMBO THE GARBAGEMAN and the dope cuts of REV SHINES.

Can they pull it off live? Rave reviews from overseas say they can. Don't miss what will surely be an ill show that will remind you why you love hip hop so much.
