On 3rd December, The Pickle Factory plays host to a very special guest in the form of Adrian Sherwood. ‘Pioneer’ is a word that’s bandied around all too readily these days, but if there’s one artist who is genuinely deserving of the term, it’s UK producer, label founder and innovator Adrian Sherwood.
With a career spanning over 30 years, Sherwood’s contribution to the contemporary UK music scene is considerable. In 1981 he founded On-U Sound, the dub label whose influence and relevance still resonates today, as evidenced by At The Controls, a compilation series chronicling the work of Sherwood in the realms of post-punk, industrial, reggae and dub. Volume 1: 1979 - 1984 was released earlier this year.
By the mid-80s, Sherwood was among the most visible producers and remixers, working on tracks for artists as varied as Depeche Mode, Simply Red and Nine Inch Nails. Today, he continues to innovate and experiment through releases such as his Late Night Endless LP, a collaboration with fellow dubstep pioneer Pinch. On 3rd December, expect a live multitrack dub mix from this true innovator, in addition to what will be the first ever London performance of the Sherwood At The Controls 1979 - 1984 set.
He’s joined by Bristol dubplate maestro Ishan Sound, one of the founding members of the Young Echo collective. Capable of effortlessly blending rare dub, reggae and 2-step, Ishan’s soundsystem-conscious stylings have seen releases on Tectonic Records, Ras Addis and Peng Sound.
London DJ Trevor Jackson rounds out bill. Jackson has been affiliated with Sherwood and his On-U Sound label for some time. Fresh from releasing his Format LP earlier this year, Jackson curated Science Fiction Dancehall Classics, an exhaustive compilation of On-U Sound's classic back catalogue. A true Adrian Sherwood disciple, Trevor Jackson is the perfect DJ to warm the dancefloor on 3rd December.
