The Sinking Ship returns January 11th 2025 Kicking off the new year with SOMERSAULT
Local Supports: JDRUM & BUTTERZ
When introducing Somersault it’s best to let the music do the talking. From chart-topping releases on PIV, Audiojack’s Gruuv and Ben Rau’s META, to being remixed by Jimpster, Darius Syrossian and Audiojack. Heads are turning fast to this thriving force from down under.
Heavily influenced by jazz-infused house, the shuffling rhythms of UK garage and rolling atmospheric techno, Somersault straddles the line between delirious highs and murky lows, with a sound that’s brought his unique sets to some of the most respected outdoor festivals and underground clubs.
The talented producer has come a long way from session guitarist to forging a signature brand of completely unique and enduring, groove focussed music. Receiving plays and support from Marco Carola, Archie Hamilton, Stacey Pullen, Prunk, Tobi Neumann, Groove Armada, John Digweed, Felix Da Housecat, Laurent Garnier, Karotte, Roger Sanchez, Franky Rizardo, the list goes on and on.
Finding creative comfort in a raw stripped back sound, Somersault’s recent releases have been signed to world renowned imprints: Kerri Chandler’s MadTech, Rendr, Rawsome Deep, Airtime, Whoyostro, Sit Down and Innocent. His genre-bending work has also been snatched up by Suprematic, Hidden Vibes, Bassic and Open.
From dimly lit clubs to sun-drenched festival floors, Somersault seizes the psyche of the party. His lively DJ performances have seen him perform at Amsterdam Dance Event, and London’s 93 East and he’s become a festival regular at Rabbits Eat Lettuce, Subsonic, Dragon Dreaming and Elements, along with famed brands on the club circuit: Revolver Upstairs, Goodbar, S.A.S.H and Elsewhere.
