Baked Beans on Bass

Linden Scott Live @Area 51 Festival

Egg, Bacon, Bass

In a world that is driven by profit, greed and Instagram selfies, Linden Scott was infinitely blessed to grow up amongst the tribal roots of the Transkei where rhythm and melody is as abundant and true as the grains of sands along its shoreline. His early music production entailed only a cheap guitar and a west African djembe drum until he pursued a formal foundation in piano with Royal Schools of Music. Inspired from this blend of the orchestral classics, with the filthy basslines from modern production suites, he curated the sound score for Movement's Dance School's ballet, The Secret Garden, which had sell-out performances at the National Arts Festival. 

With 20 years of experience in the DJ industry, Linden Scott has shared the stage with a host of international and local artists, free from the chains of pop culture "under the influence" of a record box that's buried deeply under a pile of classic orchestral, cinematic, kwaito, rock, hip-hop, punk, jazz, rap, minimal techno, dnb, deep house and psytrance. 

Influenced by live electronic acts such as Rudimental, Goldfish and Goodluck, he is in a constant pursuit to shape the industry so that one day it will no longer be acceptable for a DJ to pitch up at the booth with just a flash drive and no live instruments.

Because music is not his profession. It is his passion.
