Drum & bass is the sound the Epidemik crew has been booking, promoting and playing since 1988. That length of involvement matters when you are putting a line-up together, because it is the difference between a name on a list and knowing which artist actually suits a 300-capacity basement versus a festival main stage.
Our drum & bass roster covers the range rather than one corner of it. DJ Hype founded True Playaz and built a reputation as a scratch pioneer. Madcap hosts on Mi-Soul Radio and sits at the more intelligent, musical end. Kezman represents the Epidemik Kru and the new skool sound. DJ Rap moved from warehouse hardcore into deep, atmospheric bass across three decades as a producer and label boss with Propa Talent.
Every booking is checked against genuine availability before we quote. You get a firm price and a set time, not a maybe - and the date is locked with a deposit that comes off the balance, so the artist is committed rather than pencilled.

Matched to the room
We suggest artists who suit your capacity, crowd and slot - not just the biggest name.
How far in advance should I book a drum & bass DJ?
For a headline name on a Friday or Saturday, three to six months is comfortable. We regularly turn around shorter notice - send the date and we will tell you honestly what is actually available rather than taking the enquiry and hoping.
Can you supply an MC alongside the DJ?
Yes. Drum & bass sets are often booked with a host, and we represent MCs including Shabba D, Evenson Allen and Bellyman. Say so in the enquiry and we will quote the pairing together.
Do you cover festivals as well as clubs?
Both. Epidemik has run stages and weekenders as well as club nights, so festival requirements - longer sets, stage times, back-to-backs, travel and logistics - are familiar territory.
Clubs, festivals, brands and private events — every booking checked against real availability and secured with a deposit. No wishlists, no chasing, no surprises on the night.
Jungle, hardcore, drum & bass, garage, house — whatever the sound, we’ve got a DJ or MC who owns it. Know exactly who you want? Tell us. Not sure? We’ll match the right name to your crowd from the full lineup.
