UK-born house and techno DJ/producer Martin Dawson - a.k.a King Roc - has tragically died in hospital after suffering an aneurysm ten days ago.
The rising star, who lived in Berlin, was also one half of duo Two Armadillos, will be missed by thousands - especially in the house scene, where he was a big name. Dawson was found in his studio on November 1st unconscious after suffering a brain aneurysm, and hadn’t woken since.
Tributes have been pouring in for Dawson, and one fellow house producer and DJ Glimpse - with whom Dawson had previously worked with - has commented: “Martin was without doubt one of the most remarkable people I have ever met.”
We at Stereoboard send our condolences to Dawson’s friends and family - RIP. You can check out one of his tracks below.
