ELECTRIC PANTHER + NOTW PRESENT: KUSH JONES (NYC)

With support from Surly, Lil Kaiviti and ngaru

-------

We've been working on this one for a while and the stars have aligned at last to bring back Juke Bounce Werk label mainstay KUSH JONES to the NOTW basement for a return outing on the Ghost Soundsystem. 

For those of us who have somehow been living under a rock, Kush Jones is a multi talented producer, DJ, and music visionary who has redefined the landscape of bass-driven music. Hailing from the Bronx, New York, he seamlessly merges the raw energy of footwork, techno, and club music with influences drawn from hip-hop, dancehall, and experimental soundscapes. His innovative approach has positioned him as a leading force in the global underground electronic music scene.

Renowned for his ability to transcend genres, Kush Jones crafts electrifying, bass-heavy productions that fuse traditional rhythms with futuristic sound design. His signature style—a blend of intricate beat patterns, gritty textures, and infectious grooves—resonates deeply with both club crowds and experimental music enthusiasts. Always pushing boundaries, Kush has earned a devoted fanbase while solidifying his reputation as a true pioneer in modern electronic music.

Kush grew up surrounded by R&B and soul played at home, which led to learning computer based music production as a teen, and while most of his peers were taking the traditional hip-hop route, he was off discovering Chicago footwork, Jersey club, and more. Still fascinated by the way all these genres reworked classic sounds to form new ones, Kush set off on a path to fuse his influences to form his own voice for the dance floor.

Eventually jumping behind the decks to play exclusive tracks from him and his friends, he gained the attention of likeminded DJs from all over, and found a home on the LA-based Juke Bounce Werk crew. A regular now on the global touring circuit in the US and Europe, he holds down radio residencies on Rinse FM and a legendary slot on The Lot Radio with B2B DJ partners and frequent collaborators AceMo, MomaReady, and DJ Swisha. Churning out homemade creations regularly, Kush is most known for Strictly 4 MY CDJZ, his self-released series of Bandcamp exclusive EPs with 40 volumes planned to drop. 

We are super hyped for this one, and if you caught Kush's sellout show at NOTW a couple of years ago, you already know this is going to be special.

Supported by some of our favourite local talent including Surly, Aotearoa’s own member of the Juke Bounce Werk crew, Lil Kaiviti, and ngaru.

Don’t miss out on this one. See you on the dancefloor and get ready to sweat.
