LDZ formally know as LONDONZOO have been around since ‘98 when founders dj Pierre Green and mc Dabbla hooked up whilst serving Uni duties in Manchester, it didn’t take long before they were running club nites and pirate radio shows whilst still repin there home town of London. Not long after that they hooked up with Sumgii (lazy j ) and Pringle mc who were already establishing themselves as a dj/mc combo in the dubstep/breaks scene. Londonzoo was formed.

The energy and vibe they created soon got them a reputation for their musical diversity, From Breaks, HipHop to Dubstep to Broken Beats they were soon hosting rooms at One NAtion, Herbal and Sankey’s suppoting acts such as Rahzel, ScratchPerverts, Adam F, Rodney P & Skits, Beatnuts and many more. In 2002 it went from producing beats for just personal Dubplates to more serious recording.

Working with other mc/rappers/producers for mixtape projects and releases, PotentFunk recs was formed. Their First release, a dubstep track, was played by the late John Peel whos playlist is achived on radio1. Since then Ldz have worked with Dubbledge, Foreign Beggars, Steve ebola, Dag Nabbit, Chase & Status, HLC, Rdot, and nuff more.

Watch out for LdZ’s first official mixtape Living Long Ting. Dabbla’s observation of life, funny wit and heavy flows and amazing wordplay spat over the rugged and raw beats from Sumgii and Pierre Green makes the perfect blend to capture your attention and ears, with regular collabs with Dubbledge, Mention and Pringle makes this LDZ family complete. Cuts from djFrosty also adds the iceing on the cake. This is just the beginning of a Musical takeover.
