Youll be hard pressed to go to a festival where Andy C isnt performing this year. The drum and bass pioneer is set to appear at up to 40 of them, both at home and abroad.

In London youll be able to catch him at Claphams South West Four Weekender and at We Are FSTVL, Upminster, just a stones throw from where the acclaimed DJ went to one of his first illegal raves from his home in Hornchurch.

It takes me a few attempts to get through but thats understandable given the bassy licks undoubtedly being blasted out at the other end.

Its the second time the internationally acclaimed DJ has performed the marathon gig, which stands as testament to his passion and dedication to the drum and bass music he helped pioneer.
