DJ Rashad died as a result of a blood clot, not drugs
Family say coroner's report shows a clot that started in his leg led to the footwork/juke pioneer's death

• The information in this story was supplied in good faith by Hyperdub Records. We have since been told the detail concerning cause of death may not be accurate. We will update when we know more.

The footwork/juke pioneer DJ Rashad died as a result of complications arising from a blood clot in his leg, his UK label Hyperdub has told the Guardian.

Initial reports – including the Guardian's – repeated Chicago police's suspicion that a drug overdose caused Rashad's death on 26 April. However, his cousin has informed Hyperdub that the coroner has determined a blood clot that started in his leg led to the death. "Drug paraphernalia" that was found near his body related to marijuana rather than hard drugs.

Rashad, who was 34, had apparently complained about an ache in his leg, but because of his young age, no one considered the possibility it might be life-threatening.

Rashad – real name Rashad Harden – had been one of the leading lights in Chicago's footwork/juke scenes. His last album, Double Cup, was ranked eighth in Rolling Stone's best dance albums of 2013, and was one of the Guardian's top 30 albums of the year.

Then again, this is coming from his cousin. I've found cousins to be less than reliable.
