TRENCH Household Management http://soundcloud.com/trench http://www.facebook.com/KiNGTRENCH There is a reason youve seen his name next to literally everyone who is anyone in bass music that has come through Atlanta in the past 5 years; Nero, Z-Trip, Doctor P, Flux Pavilion, Noisia, Pendulum, Andy C, Chase Status, Sub Focus, Excision, Dj Fresh, 12th Planet, Adam F, Reso, AK1200... the list goes on. It also happens to be the same reason that he has played from Calgary to Miami, and everywhere in between. The reason? Trench is an absolute monster. The ability to bounce seamlessly between Dubstep, Drum Bass, Electro, Hood Rap, and everything in between paired with a nasty habit of going through fifty songs in an hour on three turntables has given him the reputation of being Atlantas international ambassador when it comes to crushing a party. The former engineer to T.I.s Grand Hustle label has kept a literal vault of original material close to the chest only to be teased to the masses at his shows, but 2012 looks to be the beginning of something very, very big. Are you ready? Welcome to the Trench. SORTED http://www.facebook.com/djsortedatl Jamie Andersen aka Sorted aka Luke Skywalker has been rocking Atlanta dancefloor's for half a decade.
