“I dunno if you know about this guy but Flux Pavilion, he’s kind of a big deal,” Diplo introduced the #43 ranked bass musician at the beginning of his Diplo & Friends radio show. The labelhead has hosted whole bunch of friends, including Avicii who did an unconventional mix, and other top guns like Boys Noize, Four Tet and Dillon Francis. Flux Pavilion is an unsurprising choice, the two had a lot of time to befriend when they collaborated on a major hit 'Jah No Partial'
“I worked with him, he’s a cool guy,” Diplo continues the introduction. “I even worked out of his little dormitory studio apartment two years ago, I don’t even know here it was, somewhere in far, far North England. It was so nasty up there, there were like rats riding bicycles around the neighbourhood. I don’t think they’ve had sunshine for two centuries, it was just a giant grey cloud over this place.”
“His label Circus Records is legendary in the bass, the dubstep, the drumstep scene,” Diplo’s teasing went on. “He’s toured everywhere, he’s been to more places in America than I have and you know what, I’m from America. It’s a big country.”
After teasing about new and unheard material from Circus Records camp, Flux started the bass-filled hour long set, playing the likes of Skream, Cookie Monsta, Dillon Francis alongside his own material.
