UK free party pioneer Pete 'Woosh' Birch has died.
Birch, who was part of DJ duo Digs & Woosh, and a founding member and influential figure in Nottingham’s DiY Collective, has passed away after a five-year battle with head and neck cancer.
Announcing the news on the Doing it Ourselves: 30 Years of DiY Facebook page, Birch's friend Harry Harrison, also a member of the DiY Collective, called the late DJ and free party pioneer an "inspiration, legend, and friend."
