Little South is where the artists come to play - created with the goal of supporting and promoting local DJs and Producers in West Cornwall, UK, who specialize in various genres of dance music. The enthusiastic response from the Cornish nightlife community was overwhelming, allowing Little South to become a crucial platform for local artists seeking exposure at events. As time went on, our reach expanded beyond Cornwall and encompassed artists and events from across the entire South West of England, UK. One of our defining features has been the opportunity to showcase DJ mixes through our podcast series. Since our establishment, we have actively published podcast mixes from some of the most talented DJs in the South West. These mixes serve as a testament to the exceptional skills and creativity of our region's DJs, providing a platform for them to showcase their talent to a wider audience.

At Little South, we have a strong commitment to nurturing nightlife and live music events. A crucial aspect of our work is event promotion, which we prioritize and strive to excel at. Our dedicated team actively seeks out localized, independent music events to showcase and promote. Additionally, we proudly provide a platform for major events happening throughout the South West region, including specialist music festivals and large capacity live music events. By actively supporting and promoting these events, we aim to contribute to a thriving music scene and ensure that both local artists and established acts receive the recognition they deserve.

The Little South pages serve as a platform for emerging musical talent in the South West of England. Our goal is to encourage, foster relationships, and provide opportunities for new artists to showcase their sounds and events. We support DJs, Producers, and Vocalists of all genres within the electronic music landscape. If you are interested in being featured on our pages, we warmly welcome your expressions of interest.

Artist Interview

Resident at various South West brands...

Please introduce yourself to those unfamiliar with your DJ life.

Resident at various South West brands and played all over the UK (MOS, PASSION, ESCAPE SWANSEA) & Ibiza (EDEN MAIN ROOM, SPACE TERRACE & many others) and various gigs in USA & Croatia.

A man wearing headphones is playing music on a turntable.

Describe your DJ sound.

I like a variety of styles from melodic techno to tech house to trance and anything in between really. I like to play a variety in my sets.

What is your view on how the live music and nightlife scene has been shaped since the Covid lockdowns?

Things are getting better but events are still not packed out. The cost of living is not helping also. I work as a DJ agent too and many shows worldwide are struggling for numbers but it’s getting better.

Talk us through your podcast mix track selection.

Wanted to start with a few of my favourite vocal tracks and reworks then finish off with a bit more darker techno sound.
