About DJ /rupture
DJ /rupture is Jace Clayton, a DJ, musician and writer based in New York. His early mix Gold Teeth Thief circulated widely online and set the template for what followed: rough, fast cuts between ragga, breakcore, North African pop and noise. For years he hosted the Mudd Up! radio show on WFMU.
Clayton wrote Uproot: Travels in 21st-Century Music and Digital Culture, a book about how music moves through global digital networks. His art and composition work includes Sufi Plug Ins, a set of free music software built around non-Western ideas of sound, and The Julius Eastman Memorial Dinner, a performance piece around the composer's piano music.
