Wookie

We are thrilled to welcome UK Garage legendWookieto the Future Yard decks onSaturday 29th March.

A name that has become synonymous with a distinct sound that has shaped the landscape of electronic music, Jason Chue, aka Wookie, stands tall as one of the most influential founding fathers of UK Garage.

From the early days of his musical career, Wookie released timeless classics like ‘Scrappy’, ‘Down On Me’, and ‘Storm’ through his esteemed label, ManChu Recordings. In 1995, he signed with Jazzie B’s Soul II Soul production team. He subsequently embarked on a solo journey, working tirelessly to create his own distinctive sound. His dedication paid off as he released a series of white labels, instantly taking his career to new heights. The talented producer secured a deal with Jazzie B’s label and released his 2000 groundbreaking self-titled album. Rising to prominence with his UK top 10 hit ‘Battle’ and his remix of Sia’s ‘Little Man’, Wookie’s sound has become a major influence on a new generation of producers, including the likes of Disclosure, Rudimental, Skream, and Benga. His style laid the foundation for the birth of the current UK-born electronic bass movement.

With a busy production and DJing schedule, and the continued growth of his ManChu Recordings label, Wookie joins us as he embarks on the next exciting chapter of his musical career.
