A veteran DJ and producer of more than 30 years, GUTS has felt many grooves in his career. Since finding hip-hop in the 80’s, he has devoted all his time and energy to it, chasing thousands of samples, spending nights looking for the perfect beat or a precisely set melody. From his role as producer for French hip-hop hitmakers Alliance Ethnik in the ’90s, through collaborations (De La Soul, Svinkels), and six albums under his own name, GUTS has let his musical exploration range free. His latest live album Estrellas, brings together 25 artists from Senegal, Cuba and France, embracing the music of these three regions connected by the slave trade.
