It’s fairly safe to say that China has yet to witness the largely English phenomenon that is grime. For the uninitiated, grime emerged from various East London areas in the early 2000s as pirate radio stations like now-famous Rinse FM began broadcasting an alien-sounding, harsher form of bass music that couldn’t quite be called garage, jungle or hip-hop (and if that doesn’t clarify things, look up pop superstar Dizzee Rascal’s pre-“Bonkers” output).
In October, Split Works is proud to present China with its first experience with a genuine grime artist. Terror Danjah is widely known in the UK and amongst grime fans worldwide as a pioneering producer; if you’re unfamiliar with him, rest assured you’re in for a treat, and if you know who he is, well, need we say more? Signed to the legendary Hyperdub label alongside cutting-edge electronic acts like Burial, Kode9 and the Bug (the latter two have both wowed Chinese audiences in the last few years), Terror Danjah is a veteran of the grime scene and has been producing since 2001. Since then he has dropped numerous free mixtapes and a full-length album for Hyperdub entitled Undeniable, as well as produced tracks for MCs like Kano and Frisco. His mixtapes have seen some of the sharpest spitters around – ex-Roll Deep member Trim, for example – and bona fide legends like Wiley brought together on the same tracks.
Resident Advisor have called Terror Danjah “Grime’s Godfather”, and rightfully so. Terror Danjah’s first China show with Split is definitely an essential night for any dance music fan, hip-hop fan or anyone interested in a good time.

也许Terror Danjah 并不是一个家喻户晓的名字，他也并不像Wiley或是Dizzee Rascal 那般有名。但是在Grime圈中，他被发烧友们公认为最优秀的Grime音乐人。
Grime这一音乐风格由英国车库、Hip-Hop、舞曲音乐结合演变而来。强而有力的爆炸声、简洁的节奏以及低沉而有爆发力的贝司线是Grime最显著的特点。来自于Grime和Dubstep发源地英国伦敦的Terror Danjah，是Grime的先驱者之一，知名的电子音乐媒体Resident Advisor曾在专题文章中称他为“Grime教父”。Terror Danjah的音乐中饱含不稳定的节拍和电子颤音，营造出一种华丽的质感。在时间的磨练下，合成器的自如运用、大量乐器的编排，各种创新音效以及各种新颖的节奏模式使Terror的音乐更为强大。Terror并不局限于Grime这单一风格，就如他自己所说，他敢于挑战一切不同的音乐。
当然在关注Terror音乐的同时也不能忽视他完美的现场表现。DJ Terror炫目的技巧，对氛围的恰当掌控将引领你来到一个全新的音乐世界。
从2001年出道至今，Terror制作了难以数记的Remix和Mixtape，与大量Grime MC和女说唱艺人的合作也为他的音乐增色不少。他并不迎合主流，急于成功。这脚踏实地的十一年见证着属于Terror Danjah的不断创新，不断探索以及不断的自我超越。这个秋天， Split Works邀请大家来到“疯兔”狂欢会，一起探索Terror Danjah的音乐王国，点爆夜晚！
