His very first single 'I Can't Stop' achieved impressive chart positions on both the UK and US dance charts for a new artist. Towcester born DJ Flux Pavilion has been making waves on the electro and dance scene since he started producing music in 2008. I really want to see him again and I can't wait for another announcement from him to tour the U.S. After seeing him for only an hour, I really want to see him again and see him play a much longer set. When it was all over, I was thrilled to see him live.įlux Pavilion should be one of the top dj's in the world. ![]() He even played some of his famous songs and played other people's songs as well. His set at the MainStage at the Gorge amphitheater was over the top and he kept the crowd going. I was excited and when the day finally came, I was mad excited. From Bass Cannon, his Gold Dust remix, Do Or Die, and I Can't Stop, his songs left an impact to the EDM scene in America.īack in May, USC events announce their full lineup for Paradiso festival, I was surprised to see Flux on the lineup. He has many awesome songs under his belt that really influence the dubstep scene in England and in the United States. It was the first dubstep song that I have listen to. What got me interested in him in the first place was his remix of Cracks. A producer who seems tireless in his work ethic who is constantly re-imagining his sound whilst gaining a cult following on the live music scene, the stage is set for him to release a huge debut in 2015.įor all my life, I've always wanted to see Flux Pavilion. He has been steadily releasing EPs for the past five years, the latest being 2013 'Freeway' which featured his successful collaboration with vocalist Rosie Oddie on 'Gold Love'. The 2013 film The Great Gatsby featured the track in its star studded soundtrack which included Lana Del Rey and The xx whilst it was also chosen for the trailer of Ron Howard's 2013 film 'Rush' starring Chris Hemsworth. In August 2011, the track was sampled by producer Shama Joseph for 'Who Gon Stop Me' which later appeared on 'Watch The Throne' a collaboration by Kayne West & Jay Z and featured other esteemed artists including Frank Ocean and Beyoncé. ![]() His most widely recognised track is 'I Can't Stop' which originally featured on the Lines In Wax EP. He is still to release a solo debut album, yet he has contributed to numerous projects, including his collaborative release with fellow record mate Doctor P entitled Circus One to which he produced and recorded four tracks. ![]() He formed an independent label entitled Circus Records with Doctor P, DJ Swan-E, and Earl Falconer of UB40 fame which allowed him to release demos, early EPs and his 2011 breakthrough single 'Bass Cannon' which was placed on Radio 1's A List Playlist. Listen again to Lines in Wax as we celebrate 10 years with this phenomenal piece of work.Flux Pavilion first rose to attention in 2008 with his experimental brand of dub step. Following this up with “Superbad” with Doctor P, “Daydreamer” with Example, and then Blow The Roof made him into a household name in dubstep, and he’s been carrying the torch ever since. And while that’s the song that blew up, “Hold Me Close,” “Haunt You,” and especially “Lines In Wax” with Foreign Beggars are still seminal hits even a decade later.įlux Pavilion’s next single after this EP was “Bass Cannon,” which took his growing popularity from the EP and cemented his status as someone who’s career would shape the genre. “I Can’t Stop” is still the second most-played song on UKF Dubstep, ten years later, with over 111 million views, and it has nearly 100 million plays on Spotify. Lines in Wax was really the beginning of it all. Just as Lines in Wax was a watershed moment for my discovery of dubstep, it was also a breakout release for Flux Pavilion, who years later counts dozens of releases, a debut album (and another album on the way), not to mention collaborations with Childish Gambino, Riffraff, Matthew Koma, The Chain Gang of 1974, and more. But then I found Flux Pavilion’s Lines in Wax EP, released October 11, 2010, and I can distinctly remember walking the bus loop at my university bumping “I Can’t Stop,” “Hold Me Close,” and my bootleg “Got 2 Know VIP” every day. Just beginning my journey into dubstep, artists like 12th Planet, Vaski, Jakwob, and especially Rusko were catching my attention. Ten years ago, I was digging on Earmilk and This Song Is Sick for the latest bangers.
