2Tuff Forever is a special event honoring the life and legacy of Andrew Cerutti (1974–2025), also known as 2Tuff Andy, who we lost unexpectedly in January 2025.
An influential and integral part of Washington, DC’s underground music scene, Andy co-founded 2Tuff Productions in 1994 alongside DJ Slant. For over 30 years, 2Tuff has been at the forefront of promoting jungle, drum & bass, and electronic music in DC and beyond. 2Tuff is widely credited for helping establish, nurture, and lead the vibrant DC DNB scene that continues to thrive today.
Beyond his work with 2Tuff, Andy served as label manager for Fort Knox Five Recordings and managed several acts including Fort Knox Five, See-I, Nappy Riddem, and Empresarios. He was a connector in every sense—a unifying presence whose energy brought together people from different circles in the spirit of music, art, culture, and knowledge. Andy was also a college professor, devoted dog dad, fiercely loyal friend, and a loving family member.
The DJ lineup for this night reflects some of the many artists who played pivotal roles in 2Tuff’s history. DJ Trace performed at one of the very first 2Tuff warehouse raves in 1995. Bailey has been a regular guest and close supporter since 1997. DJ Flight was a DC favorite in the early 2000s. Charles Feelgood, founder of the legendary Fever night, helped shape the electronic and rave scenes in both DC and Baltimore. LoveGrove of Sonic Soul worked alongside 2Tuff in supporting the iconic Ultraworld Armory parties. Rob Paine (Solomonic Sound System) has been a 2Tuff mainstay since its earliest days. Steve Raskin of Fort Knox Five — and the extended family of DJs, bands, and funk & soul lovers—were a meaningful and important part of Andy’s life and identity.
On July 3, 2025, friends, family, and fans will gather at Flash Nightclub to remember, honor, and celebrate Andy Cerutti’s life and the powerful impact he had on our community. His legacy is one of music, connection, and culture—and 2Tuff Forever will be a night to carry that spirit forward.
