Culture Shock

About

Culture Shock isn't just a DJ; he's a sonic architect, meticulously constructing dancefloor earthquakes with seismic basslines and euphoric melodies. From the fertile ground of the UK drum and bass scene, Culture Shock, born Richard West, has evolved into a global force, pushing the boundaries of the genre while maintaining its raw energy. His sound, a potent blend of high-octane neurofunk, melodic liquid drum and bass, and even subtle hints of electronica, is instantly recognizable for its polished production and relentless drive. Rising through the ranks with releases on Ram Records, including the seminal "Protection" EP, Culture Shock quickly established himself as a prodigious talent. Breakthrough tracks like "Bunker" and "City Lights" became anthems, showcasing his ability to craft intricate soundscapes that resonate far beyond the club. Beyond his solo work, Culture Shock has collaborated with the likes of Wilkinson and Sub Focus, further solidifying his position at the vanguard of the drum and bass movement. Recent ventures, including highly anticipated EPs and relentless touring schedules across festivals worldwide, signal a continued commitment to pushing the limits of sound and experience, solidifying his place as a modern drum and bass icon.
