No other producer packs a punch like AUDIO. From his tattooed drum & bass knuckles to his ruthlessly hard-hitting productions, Gareth Greenall embodies the spirit of D&B. Uncompromising, inherently underground and refusing to play games, the South London artist’s diligence, creativity and lack of complacency has inspired mass respect from every possible corner of the scene.

Four albums, countless 12”s and over 15 years deep into his limit-pushing adventures, Gareth continues to surge at the very forefront of the sound he’d first experienced as young Londoner tuning in to Colin Dale’s eminent Abstract Dance Kiss FM sermons. Instant jungle entrenchment: he hurled himself into the fray. Vinyls, Reason, illegal raves… The boy – whose mum brought him up on a strict diet of ABBA and Queen – grabbed any angle and any opportunity to get involved.
From ringing up and booking Ed Rush for a party above a pub in Croydon off the back of mobile number on a test press … To scoring a job as in-house studio engineer at legendary rave distributors Alphamagic where he studied the dark art of dynamics at a masters level: Audio wouldn’t – and still won’t – settle for anything less than full immersion.

His own production stripes stretch back to just after the turn of the century when he found himself at the helm of Resonant Evil. Demonstrating their power with a debut on the genre-defining Renegade Hardware, over the course of two years they scorched the repertoires of Moving Shadow, G2 and Outbreak. As Resonant Evil’s brutal bulletins wound down, Audio was winding up. Carving his own path with his own rules, he was soon snapped up by early neuro pioneers Tech Freak Recordings who gave him the opportunity to stretch himself creatively and broadcast his first long playing message. Audio’s debut album ‘To The Edge Of Reason’ showed the world he could cater for experiences beyond the dancefloor yet convey the same attitude and defiant dynamic he’d become synonymous with as a DJ and on 12”s. It was so well received; within a year he was signed by Ed Rush and Optical and for five years became an intrinsic member of the Virus family.

Audio’s work on Virus is where he really developed momentum. Already an established headliner across Europe, his productions and reputation became a global phenomenon, leading to tours in every territory. This reputation was compounded by albums such as ‘Genesis Device’ and ‘Soul Magnet’ which spawned the mighty ‘Headroom’. One of the most influential and successful tracks of its time, it knocked chart-topping EDM star Avicii off the Beatport top spot, dominating the chart for a total of 13 weeks and setting the foundation for his final Virus album ‘Force Of Nature’. Released in October 2013, it threw the scene completely off-guard… No other producer has conjured two albums of such strong-armed quality within less than a year. Just as his debut album had pricked the ears of Virus, ‘Force Of Nature’ attracted Andy C’s Ram Records.

Kindred spirits, Audio and Ram Records are a natural fit: both D&B lifers, both as emphatic and enthusiastic about the scene as they were at inception, both dedicated to pushing drum & bass to its furthest limits creatively and sonically, Audio’s decorated career has leveled up once more. To Gareth, though, it’s business as usual; still immersed in production science (now using the unique Studio One set up) and still just as buzzed about slapping a dancefloor into submission with deadly double drops as he was when he kicked off, Audio’s unique punch is harder than it’s ever been.

With one foot set in the future and another amongst neurofunk DNB's architects, Nick's trademark sound is not easily classified. Morphing, animalistic basslines project through sonic space in perfectly organized chaos, with structure provided by painfully sharp drums. Never conforming to any set mold, Nickbee's allegiance to innovation makes a quirky, experimental element a defining factor of his music. Perhaps most impressive is the young artist's mastery of next-level sound design, which is never forced or overdone; only tastefully applied in careful amounts, always striking that perfect balance of hi-tech and low-fi…a skill reserved only for experts. As this producer continues to defy formula and rewrite DNB's blueprint, it becomes clear that only one word can adequately describe this future sound of drum & bass… NickBee.

Coming on to the scene in 2011 and rockin' it from the start...   Athys & Duster’s first release immediately won ‘Best Track Of The Year 2011’ on the D&BA Arena Awards and got airplay from Crissy Criss at BBC Radio 1, Studio Brussels, Pure FM and other radiostations worldwide.  ‘Barfight’ was an absolute banger and an introduction to the scene with people aren’t likely to forget soon. DJ’s like Andy C, Brookes Brothers, Original Sin and more played it and destroyed dancefloors everywhere they dropped it.

The summer that followed on that release brought them to festivals like Tomorrowland, Laundry Day,Summer Fesitval Dissonant Festival and clubs like Petrol, Café d’Anvers, Trix, … Also, they became Belgium’s favourite D&B act playing only the major editions of legendary events like Star Warz and Stealth Bombers.

Their second release, the self entitled ‘Athys & Duster’ EP also hit hard and combined with their ravishing 4 deck sets, it brought them to the special shows like D&BTV 200, Switch and JIM TV. By this time they  breached national borders and started playing shows in the UK, Portugal, Spain, France, Czech ...  For 2013 they are expected to bring us more with Surface EP 2 coming up and concerts all around the  globe from Colombia to Australia and all that’s in between.
When these boys walk in, security gets doubled, frontstage engineers get nervous, fences go down and people go ballistic.
Wear earplugs. Seriously.

I grew up on a steady diet of punk, reggae, jungle, hiphop, r&b and 80's & 90's classics.
I was one of the original founders and a longtime advocate of the Belgian drum & bass scene.
My quest for the perfect mix started in 1996 and in the next 15 years I built up an exemplary service record doing the rounds of our country's countless parties & festivals. 
Nowadays i like to put my analog dj-skills and my digital arsenal to work to transform pearls and classics into live-edits and (re)mixes, smashing boundaries between genres.
Music of the future and music of the past, it's got to be funky, strictly the best! Funk is a feeling!
