GRANT NELSON (House legend) Swing city/Nice & Ripe/Hed Kandi
SUNDAY BANK HOLIDAY
This man need no introduction
Smashing the house and garage scene for over 10 years with most if not all of his releases being a big hit and a staple in many djs sets, he is heralded as the Godfather of UK Garage due to his numerous club hits on his Nice 'n' Ripe label in the early 90's.
It was his sound along with a few others that gave birth to the then known as 'Sunday Scene' which went on to become UK Garage.
In 97 he started using the alter-ego Bump & Flex and began to produce UK 2 Step. He delivered some of the scenes biggest records by far including the incredible "Funk On Ah Roll" by James Brown.
Grant has always remained a house head since his early Nice 'n' Ripe days and continues to do so to the present with his excellent Swing City label that consistently delivers top drawer house music.
