Jimi Handtrix
Since his introduction to Berlin's deeply rooted musical heritage over 15 years ago, Jimi Handtrix has steadily developed an undying passion for "future roots" music - from early roots & dub to the newest in jungle, drum'n'bass & beyond. Heavily influenced by the early sounds of the UK's rave scene and Caribbean sound system culture, he inevitably found his calling as a deejay, promoter, label manager and musical activist, and hasn't looked back since.
Through his continuous involvement in projects such as Dub Der Guten Hoffnung and Serendubity, as well as more recent endeavours such as A Bass Odyssey, his vinyl label Higher Ground Recordings, and his weekly dub session Irie Tuesdays, he has found the means to express himself whilst seamlessly blending a large spectrum of styles, textures and tempos, thus creating a unique musical journey within each of his performances.
Over the past decade he has steadily built a solid reputation as one of the go-to guys in Berlin for quality jungle, drum & bass, dub, dubstep and bass music, and abroad at festivals such as Outlook Festival in Croatia, Bamboo Bass in Costa Rica, Cosmic Convergence in Guatemala, Plötzlich am Meer in Poland and Fusion Festival in Germany, as well as smashing clubs all around the UK, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Canada, USA, Mexico and Puerto Rico!
