Socle is a well-known name in the Lithuanian Drum & Bass scene. His musical journey began on November 11, 2011, when he first got his hands on turntables and immersed himself in the world of Drum & Bass. From his first sets to performing on major stages, it was a natural evolution that led him to event organizing and conquering the scene. His main genre is Drum & Bass, but at private parties and various events, he skillfully adapts his repertoire to the audience—ranging from 70s–90s classics to House, Reggae, and Pop music. His performances are known for their energy, a blend of melancholy and nostalgia that captivates listeners and creates a unique atmosphere. Beyond performing, Socle is an active event organizer. One of his major achievements was hosting the HOSPITALITY event in 2024, a branded event by Hospital Records, which gained significant attention. His talent has crossed Lithuanian borders—he has played not only in clubs and festivals across the country, such as Loftas Fest, Tundra, Revolution Festival, Granatos, but also in Latvia, Estonia, and Belgium. Throughout his career, Socle has had the honor of sharing the stage with LSB & DRS, Makoto, Paradox, Etherwood, Nu:Tone, Aries, Jacky Murda, and many other renowned artists. These experiences have helped him grow and become one of the most respected DJs in Lithuania’s Drum & Bass scene. For his performances, Socle uses both Pioneer CDJs and turntables with Serato, ensuring an authentic and technically refined show. His mixes are not just playlists but journeys through sound and emotions, meticulously crafted from the first to the last beat. Future plans? To release his own productions, continue organizing high-quality events, and bring famous international artists to Lithuania. His ultimate goal? To conquer the biggest European Drum & Bass festival stages and leave a lasting impact on the music culture.
