Ramadanman (London, UK)

Core member of the Hessle Audio crew and legend in his own right, Ramadanman aka Pearson Sound speaks to Dazed

21-year-old Londoner David Kennedy takes stead of the latest Dubstep Allstars (Volume 7) for Tempa alongside long time Croydon stalwart and Skream BFF, Chef. The young blood co-founded the outstanding Hessle Audio label with Ben UFO and Pangaea back in 2007 and has already racked up nine stellar releases of inimitably spacey, deep, bouncy dubstep... not forgetting his releases on Apple Pips, Soul Jazz, 2nd Drop and Bare Drops. It’s like Lord of The Flies, the tribe of Ramadanman runs deep.
