D-Bridge (Bad Company, Exit Records UK) - Gemini Principle NZ LP Tour 2008

Bath St

Wednesday 9th July 2008

A veteran producer and one of the most experienced artists in drum and bass, Darren White aka D-Bridge visits New Zealand to celebrate the release of his debut solo artist album 'The Gemini Principle'.

Numerous collabrations with the likes of Calibre, Commix, A.I., Concord Dawn, D-Kay, Jenna G and others stand testament to his reputation and form part of a diverse and inspirational release catalogue of truly enviable proportions.

Having set the drum and bass scene alight as part of Bad Company, D-Bridge stepped forward once again in 2003 reintroducing himself as a solo artist and unleashed a barrage of releases across top labels Metalheadz, Soul:r and Creative Source.

More recently he's turned his attentions to his label and has realised his big plans for his label Exit Records with singles featuring Rufige Kru, Survival, Break, Steve Spacek, and his first solo album 'The Gemini Principle' which is released on June 2, 2008.

D-Bridge has always had a deep connection with New Zealand, and has recently cemented this with his sublime remix of local heroes Shapeshifter' tune 'One'. His numerous appearances in New Zealand have built a fervent following that can only be expanded once the public gets to hear 'The Gemini Principle'

D-Bridge loves to draw from the range of diverse music he's so passionate about when playing a live DJ set. Seamless transistions from rough to smooth are his trademark although his sets always deliver for the dancefloor, making him equally at home whether representing Metalheadz or Soul:r for example. Having honed his deck skills with over 10 years of DJing experience, D-Bridge brings the same quality and style to a live show that he does in the studio. It's no surprise then that demand for D-Bridge is high and can surely only rise as the success of Exit Records continues to grow.
