Original Penguin have announced their latest ‘Plugged In’ session with Drum and Bass DJ and producer Friction. Together they will be hosting an exclusive summer party in a secret London location on Wednesday 4th September. The event follows recent gigs that have seen Miles Kane host an Intimate show which married music and art in a London gallery basement, and an interactive Google+ live streamed show created with DJ/Producer Benga. Since the birth of Original Penguin in the 1950’s when Rock & Roll dominated youth culture, the brand has always had strong links with music. Original Penguin continue to grow and evolve alongside the cultural landscape, embracing all musical genres from indie and urban to electronic, inspired by the way music and fashion continue to influence each other as new waves of fans discover the brand.
Friction will bring his always on point soundtrack to Original Penguin’s ultimate end of summer party. This exclusive show will see online influencers and tastemakers from the scene join a limited number of competition winners to see out the summer in style. Fans can enter to win one pair of the limited number of tickets for the event via the Plugged In website. The competition is now live and fans will have until Midnight on Monday 2nd September to enter. Tickets are shifting fast so get involved.
Friction is regarded by many as not only the most skilled but the most diverse DJ in Drum & Bass. The face of Radio 1’s flagship Drum & Bass weekly Sunday show is a member of an exclusive club; he is one of the few nu-skool DJs who has truly earned his stripes through doing exactly that – DJing. Although with many productions to his name such as ‘Photon’, ‘Critical Mass’ and the acclaimed ‘Altitude’, it is his skills behind the turntables and his ability to adapt to any crowd that have brought him worldwide acclaim with one of busiest gigging schedules in the industry.
This year the DJ released hit single ‘Kingpin’ where he worked with Skream, Riko, P Money and Scrufizzer. Friction is currently at work on his new album, which features his next single, ‘Long Gone Memory’ available in October and featuring Arlissa on vocals.
The event with Friction is one of the many Plugged In sessions still has to come this year. Fans can stay up to date with all these and more by heading to the Plugged In website.
