Jason Winder dead: DJ dies at Glastonbury as tributes paid to 'talented' radio presenter | The Sun

TRIBUTES have been paid to an "ultra-talented" radio DJ who died at Glastonbury.

Jason Wilder, real name Jason Winder, 48, passed away at the music festival on Sunday.

The DJ was reportedly in his tent at one of the Worthy Farm campsites when he suffered a medical episode.

Tributes have now flooded in for Jason from his pals in the music industry.

Pal Tim Newton, who performed on Phuket radio in Thailand with Jason, said: "Such a natural-born engager and entertainer – solo behind the mic, or in the company of close friends and family, or in front of thousands.

"He was certainly the best expat radio talent that ever graced a microphone in Thailand."

Another friend wrote: "Very sad news. Shocking. Loved his live music. Rest easy."

While one described Jason as being always "full of energy" with a "smiling face".

Police were scrambled to an area of Glastonbury known as the old railway line at around 4am on Sunday.

Tragically Jason couldn't be saved and was declared dead at the scene.
