Few DJs have the wealth of experience and knowledge Ron has – not just of music but of making people move. Ron’s music has vibrated several times through the massive sound system of Berghain’s Panorama Bar in Berlin, accompanied the sunrise at festivals like Sustain-Release and has taken them to different corners of the globe but their music has always brought them home to NYC. Ron Like Hell’s Scottish debut will bring Edinburgh a slice of the NYC rave scene – and will show why his unique and story weaving sets are talk amongst all of NYC’s underground.
