January 2012 Digital makes a return to New Zealand for a couple of exclusive gigs in the North Island & to headline 2 festivals in the South Island.

promoted by Frederick Crew; produced by ARTIVIST : creative

Digital aka Steve Carr is the primary musical moniker. This Ipswich based producer is known exclusively for his old skool beatz and dubby B-lines but a short conversation and a little investigative listening indicate this is one producer likely to pull a few seriously weighty tricks out of the bag. Digital has been involved in music all of his life, particularly reggae. Main influences being from his father having run a sound system for about thirty years. His musical tag & skills come from his knack at tampering with electronic equipment from the early age of fourteen. From about 1989 to 1991 Digital was busy running around playing reggae with sound systems, till the fateful period when all this rave business crept in. Around 1991 the scene started to grow heavily in Ipswich and the surroundings areas. Digital started hiring out his sound system to various promoters having raves in and around Ipswich, this is when he started checking out the scene and its music.
