MUSIC at WILD CANVAS
With lazy afternoon DJ session beside the river and a selection of DJ friends providing the musical nutrition at Wild HQ, our secluded courtyard, in the evenings. Music at Wild Canvas is a pretty chilled affair, a sweet summer soundtrack to your time here., served up on a quality sound system! Whilst pretty low key during the week, on weekends, we turn up the volume and get the party going.

Wild Canvas DJs
We are so happy to announce that the legendary Mad Professor will be playing music at Wild Canvas Camping this August.
Mad Professor is a musical giant, not only for his extensive, original contribution to Reggae and Dub music but also for his acclaimed remix work for artists including Sade, the Orb, KLF, Beastie Boys, Jamiroquai and many others. His complete re-work of Massive Attack’s ‘Protection’ LP, is a bonafide classic.
Dom Servini is a stalwart of the soulful music scene in London. As co-owner of the Wah Wah 45s record label (this year celebrating its twenty third birthday) and resident DJ at their club and live events, as well as being an internationally respected turntablist, Dom knows not only how to rock a party, but also has the knack for finding an exciting new artist or two. Dom has been responsible for signing Hackney Colliery Band, The Milk, Dele Sosimi, Honeyfeet, Resonators and many more.
Stuart’s long career in the music business has seen him travel the world DJing from Brazil, India, to Norway, Germany, New York and Croatia, in some of the world’s hottest house spots including The Smart Bar in Chicago, Red Zone in Italy, D-Edge in Sao Paolo, Space, DC10 and Pacha in Ibiza.
The Mighty Zaf is one of the top handful of House and Disco DJs in the world playing original and rare musical gems on vinyl. Zaf’s DJ set at Wild Canvas last year was one of the highlights of the month and we are super happy to have him back again this year.
Earl Gateshead began DJing in 1979 when he played Reggae records between punk bands in Brixton……… Today Earl tours the world, always playing original, first press, vinyl, which he maintains has the best sound. He spreads the original positive message of love, from Jamaica’s golden era of Reggae music.
Mucho Soul began back in 2001 as a monthly club night in Soho, London. The brainchild of long time muso’s & record collectors Alan Kenny Arscott (DJ A.K.A) and Ket Shah.
Russ is behind some of London’s most successful club nights including London Calling and No Room for Squares in the mid 90’s and Future World Funk in the 2000s.
Kate Magic has a bi-weekly show on Soho Radio, with guests including Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Louie Vega, Femi Fem and many more. In recent years, she has played at Jazz Refreshed, BBE Store and We Out Here festival, as well as our very own Wild Canvas. She loves jazz, hip hop, broken beat and soul, and anything with an uplifting positive message.
