Moniker

Head honcho of Indian magazine and cultural hub thewildcity.com, aptly named Wild City DJ a.k.a Moniker has a peculiar and varied taste in music. Straddling hip-hop, garage, grime, bass, house, techno, alternative electronica and anything in between, WCDJ always brings an informative set, favouring upfront and left of centre music over yesterday’s tired hits. Having been a part of the underground electronic movement in London for a number of years WCDJ brings to the table a fresh and undeniably UK sound to his live shows.
