Jersey Live Festival 2009 Line up Saturday 5th September

Basement Jaxx

They'd been about for a little while (remember 'Fly Life'?) but anyone on the dancefloor in 1999 would have found the funky progressive house rhythms of monster club hit 'Red Alert' irresistable. Producers, remixers and DJ duo Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton had arrived, and followed 'Red Alert' with hit album 'Remedy' and a string of other club winners. Their 2002 return saw them win Best British Dance Act at the Brit Awards thanks to top 10 hits 'Romeo' and 'Where's Your Head At?'. The cream of UK dance music.

Dizzee Rascal

Underground dance master who stunned the UK garage scene with his debut album 'Boy In Da Corner' and single 'I Luv U' in 2003, both of which warped the sound into something dark, disturbing and deliciously innovative. Considered the most popular and influential Grime artist in the world, and also recognised as an innovator with his production style. 2007's 'Maths + English' is a masterpiece and a credit to the genre.

Passion Pit

Stunning electronica loaded with samples, glitches and effects by Michael Angelakos. His is without a doubt a sound to watch out for, and likely to provoke emotion upon intense emotion, from euphoria to joy to pain.

Esser

Replacing regular guitar with samples, Esser's live show is a collection of very slick sampling and huge drum beats with plenty of extra percussion on top. Similar to early Beck in many ways, except replace that American Scientologist drawl with very English punctuation and dry humour and you can see why Esser is causing a stir.

MC GQ

One of the country's top drum'n'bass MCs.

London Elektricity

Tony Colman, on keyboards and backing vocals, is the driving force behind London Elektricity, joined by Hospital's own breaks don Tim Landslide, triggering samples and digital elements in real-time. Meanwhile at the rhythmic core of the band are the 'Jungle Drummer' (he's really just a human 'Amen' break) and sub-bass specialist Andy Waterworth, with vocals from long-time Hospital specialist Ms Liane Carroll, and Movement's prodigal-son, Stamina MC. It's a full on live experience, with absolutely NO playback, NO click track, and NO computers - just top quality musicians and vocalists rolling out the best soulful dancefloor DnB you've ever heard!

Beardyman

Mouth-play from human beatbox extraordinaire and winner of the UK beatboxing crown for two years running.

Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip

The hip-hop/electro duo whose name has been on the tip of everyone's tongues, since the release of their 2007 single Thou Shalt Always Kill. Sounding like a head on collision between The Streets, Goldie Lookin' Chain and Kieran Hebden's Fourtet, Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip manage to mix coolness, humour and wry commentry with some highly original material.
