About Me
Konkrete Jungle NYC. DJs Junglez, Empress, and Krunchy, MCs TC Izlam, Dyer and Mahk AtenKrunchy is a darkside drum and bass marksman. The definitive sound that is Krunchy combines rugged bass and whiplash breaks without succumbing to the generic sound of dancefloor darkness. Rinsing the freshest plates and giving maximum respect to the classic and U.S. darkside sound, DJ Krunchy insures a crowds ass-a-shakin', heads-a-noddin', breakdancing injuries and ultimately lighters raised in true jungle-raver fashion.DJ Krunchy began the journey into the world of electronic music in the early 90's. Already an avid music fan with a taste for the hard and strange, Krunchy was at first drawn to the machine like abstraction of electro and the industrial/ hardcore punk influenced sound of gabber techno. Two events would change all of that. The release of a cd called "Jungle Warfare", and hearing a dj named Soulslinger at an Autechre show. Soulslinger's set , a mix of ragga, fast hardcore breaks and early tech-step, inspired the switch into the jungle sound. After experimenting with many styles within the genre Krunchy found a home in the dark, hard, glitchy sound of tech-step drum and bass.Playing at parties across the US and Germany, Krunchy developed razor sharp skills and a reputation for style and control on the decks. Showcasing these skills along side such DnB luminaries as Dara, Dom and Roland, Bad Company , Dieselboy , and many others, Krunchy has proven she can hold it down with the best. Also a respected NYC promoter and budding producer , Krunchy is a force and definitely one to watch.
