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 specialise 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 Devon and 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 localised, 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.

Cornwall's drum and bass DJ, EMU steps up to the Little South podcast mix series with an episode utilising triple CDJs and even some mixing onto vinyl for good measure!

EMU tell about yourself and your musical style:

Im a Drum & Bass DJ through and through. I try to create energy within my sets and mixes while keeping a vibe. My sets can differ massively depending on venue, time slot or who I am supporting. I enjoy all aspects of Drum & Bass, whether it be a Noisia slammer or something a bit more chilled by the likes of Calibre.

What have you been upto this year so far and what is planned?

To be honest this year has been a lot quieter than previous years with regards to playing out, that being said I have played at some good events. Would say this years highlight was winning the AFT Records mix competition, this lead on to me playing at No Mans Land Festival. That was a massive confidence boost for me. Another highlight was the Dubphonics night back in June supporting Annix & Klip & Outlaw. That night was just mad on all levels. I went over to Prague for Let It Roll festival, this has given me some good inspiration as a DJ. Plans for the future, me and my partner are buying a house which will have a room set up as a dedicated studio. Expect to see some of my own productions emerging, under a new alias.

Tell us where we can catch you playing out?

21st September, The Factory, Plymouth - Supporting Koherent

19th October, The Factory, Plymouth - Supporting Benny L & Bou

There are a few others that i can't say much about as the are yet to be announced

Talk us through your podcast mix - why did you select the tunes you have done?

To be honest its a pretty off the cuff mix, just kinda pressed record and this happened. Its quite rolling, mixed across 3 cdjs and the odd track on vinyl. I tried the keep the mix interesting for everyone, throwing in the odd vocal tune or classic. Its basically a 55 minute journey through my taste in Drum & Bass.
