One of the most direct lifelines to the 1990s glory days when Orlando was a global dance-music hotspot still runs through Iron Cow, and this booking is proof positive of that ongoing commitment and connection.

English DJ/producer LTJ Bukem is a drum & bass giant, a pioneer who led the vanguard of the genre’s more cerebral side from the beginning. His soulful and sophisticated work remains a touchstone of intelligent breakbeat.

Add Orlando’s own legendary junglist AK1200 and Torque residents Circle K and MC Collaborator to the mix and you’ve got a who’s who of drum & bass, a continuum that leads right back to Orlando’s music lineage.

9 p.m. Friday, April 14, Iron Cow, $25-$30.
