Culture Shock in Concert

James Pountney aka Culture Shock has gone from the passing of an unmarked demo, to arguably the drum & bass scene’s most groundbreaking producer.

Since his first release on Moving Shadow in 2004,Culture Shock has consistently pushed boundaries with his sonic artwork, creating a diverse discography which has become symbolic within one of the UK’s most withstanding genres. With a classically trained background and finding a natural talent in writing music, it was only a matter of time before he refined his interests. After first discovering jungle on pirate radio stations, percussion and drums quickly became his passion. Alongside mentorship from one of the most technically adept producers in the scene, namely Dom & Roland, James honed in on both his creativity and aptitude to become a figure in his own right.
