Nobody does it like Yung Singh. He stands as one of the most exciting DJs on the world circuit, having spent the last few years levelling up from local phenomenon to shining global star. Refusing to be boxed in by just one sound, Singh’s sets can vary from across the dance music spectrum to hip-hop, rap and everything in between - all blended perfectly with his Punjabi roots. If the last few years are anything to go by, expect the unexpected at a Yung Singh set.

Awarded DJ Mag’s ‘Breakthrough DJ of the Year’ in 2021 buoyed by a string of viral moments - from an era-defining Boiler Room set to a spontaneous collaboration with singer Raf Saperra at Fabric that now sits in UK club folklore. Singh’s output has helped to re-energise the British Punjabi and South Asian music scene, with several stand-out performances at South Asian focused events cementing his position at the forefront of this resurgence.

Indeed, this ‘cultural responsibility’ has seen Singh contribute to numerous projects bringing to light Punjabi/Sikh & South Asian arts, history and culture. Keen to make sure those that came before are not forgotten - he partnered with the Ministry of Sound to produce ‘The Birth of Punjabi Garage’, a documentary about the much beloved but oft-forgotten sound brought back into focus after his scene shifting Punjabi Garage Mix. Singh has also collaborated with renowned Artist Jasleen Kaur to on sound design for her Sociomobile exhibition, consulted on a BBC Radio 4 Documentary on Partition with Kavita Puri & hosted numerous screenings and panels with Brixton Community Cinema. In more recent months, a truly memorable BBC Radio 1 Residency has captured attention - just like his sets, Yung Singh’s creative output spans disciplines & art forms.

Showing his artistic range and sharp ear in new regions – with crowd reactions to match, Singh has established himself as one of the most sought-after club DJs & a festival circuit highlight. A position earned thanks to now-legendary performances at some of Europe’s most respected festivals & clubs, including Horst in Belgium, to Barcelona’s Sónar, MELT in Germany, a memorable Glastonbury performance or two and, of course, a ground-breaking debut at Panorama Bar in Berghain to cap it all off.

With an unforgettable month long Phonox residency under his belt, alongside ferociously energetic shows on his “Global Gabru” tours, including yet another viral Boiler Room, Singh is well placed to continue his relentless trajectory as one of dance music’s most exciting names.

Now setting sights onto yet more regions, curating his own events and evolving his artistic practice, Yung Singh won’t be stopping anytime soon.
