Steve Reid Foundation

Steve Reid Foundation Set up by Gilles Peterson in memory of drummer Steve Reid. A variety of fundraising activities are planned.

Steve Reid was an amazing drummer with a long and illustrious history that stretched from working with James Brown, Miles Davis and Fela Kuti through to his own Steve Reid Trio and more recently working with Kieran Hebden (Four Tet). He died from throat cancer in the US in 13, April 2010 without the money for treatment that could have saved his life. The Steve Reid Foundation works closely with ot

her charities to aid the plight of struggling musicians, especially those with long-term and life threatening health problems. A career as a musician may sometimes seem glamorous but more often it is a struggle and health related issues can often be the final straw.

LA Fire fundraiser on 26th Jan - save the date!

Thanks to for getting us their space at such short notice and all the DJs who immediately gave us a resounding yes to being there.
and …. save the date Jan 26 and I’ll have a ticket link for you on Monday.

Please help Madlib rebuild

I used to just like Madlib's music, but what made me grow into a real fan was hearing some truly obscure s**t, from all over the genre map, turn up in his samples, in between some brilliant beats.
