Jason O’Bryan has been through many twists and turns over the last 25 years, his former band the 'Dub Pistols' now headline sell-out shows and festivals across the world. 

By the mid-90s the London based DJ was producing records under the ‘Ceasefire’ moniker on the legendary Wall of Sound label (including the classic ‘Trickshot’ feat. Al Pacino), releasing albums on Belgium’s world famous techno label R&S Records with partner Meat Katie as ‘Avenue A’ alongside Joey Beltram, Jaydee, C.J Bolland & Aphex Twin, and had co-founded the infamous Dub Pistols with DJ Barry Ashworth.

The Dub Pistols initial ‘Point Blank’ album surfed the late '90s big beat wave with tracks like 'Cyclone', 'Westway' and 'There's Gonna Be A Riot' championed by the likes of Norman Cook, aka Fatboy Slim, Afrika Bambaata and the Chemical Brothers. 

The bands second album ‘Six Million Ways To Live’, signed to major US label Geffen, featured guest vocals by Terry Hall from The Specials, Planet Asia and long term Massive Attack vocalist Horace Andy, the album’s success led to Jason O’Bryan being the producer and remixer of choice for many popular artists including Moby, Limp Bizkit, Ian Brown, Bush, Korn, Natalie Imbruglia, Bono (U2), Lily Allen, Rob Zombie, Scissor Sisters, Audioweb, Arkarna, Banco de Gaia, Bow Wow Wow, The Crystal Method, Scapegoat Wax, Sly & Robbie, The Freestylers, Apollo 440, Mantronix, Hurricane No.1, Collapsed Lung, Dee Patten, So Solid Crew and Roots Manuva.

The third album ‘Speakers & Tweeters’ album released on Sunday Best saw further collaborations with Terry Hall on a number of tracks. Hall is on record as saying that singing with the Dubs – and realizing how much love was out there for his former 2-Tone band – was instrumental in one of the biggest reunions of recent times (The Specials). Indeed, having also played live with the Dub Pistols a few times, guitarist Lynval Golding personally asked the Dub Pistols to support The Specials on their first comeback tour. The ‘Speakers & Tweeters’ album also began a long-term association with UK hip-hop originator Rodney P, which continues to this day.

Recorded in Barbados, the band’s fourth album ‘Rum & Coke’ was a body of work hailed by fans and critics alike. As well as the usual regulars, the album also featured Lindy Layton (formerly in Norman Cook’s Beats International project), DJ Justin Robertson (Lionrock/Deadstock 33s) and celebrated trombone player Ashley Slater (also in a band with Norman Cook (Freakpower), whose single ‘Turn On, Tune In, Cop Out’ single topped the UK charts in the mid-90s).

Jason O’Bryan’s music has often featured in movie soundtracks most notably ‘Keep Movin’ that was used as the trailer music for the first Austin Powers film. The song was also featured in the Ben Stiller Movie ‘Mystery Men’; O’Bryan’s music was once again personally chosen by Stiller and featured heavily in the motion picture ‘Zoolander’ also co-starring Owen Wilson. Jason also worked in Mexico City alongside Oscar winning director Alfonso Cuaron (Gravity) and the cult band ‘Molotov’ to create original music for Cuaron’s classic ‘Y Tu Mama Tambien’. O’Bryan was also commissioned to write original music for the ‘Blade 2’ soundtrack with the legendary rapper Busta Rhymes, which paired UK electronic artists with heavyweight US rappers.

‘Six Million Ways to Live’ a song co-written by O’Bryan was used as the end title music in the Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins movie ‘Bad Company’ and Dub Pistols song ‘Official Chemical’ was used in the Joel Schumacher movie ‘Driven’ featuring Sylvester Stallone. The US series ‘Bullrun’ also features Jason’s music as the program’s theme music as well as incidental music throughout the series; his work continues to be licensed to major Motion pictures and TV series.

Many songs Jason O’Bryan has composed have also been featured in best selling video games including Frequency, Matt Hoffman's Pro BMX 2, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Final Fight streetwise, NBA Live, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 and EA Sports' FIFA 99.

Jason O’Bryan has programmed numerous DJ Mixes for Radio Shows including Kiss FM (U.K) and Radio One (U.K) and many DJ’s have favored Jason’s productions including the most highly respected in a variety of musical circles such as The Chemical Brothers, Afrika Bambaata, Howie B, Giles Peterson, Paul Oakenfold and Coldcut. O’Bryan has performed at countless major events and clubs including The Glastonbury Festival (UK), Reading Festival (UK), Solidays (Paris), V Festival, Creamfields (Argentina), Rockness (UK) and the Vans Warped Tour (USA).

From the early beginnings as a sound-system project, the Dub Pistols grew into a party-rocking live act that never failed to ignite a festival or venue. In December 2011 the Dub Pistols were named the ‘Best Live Band 2011’ in DJ Magazine’s annual Best of British Awards – a fitting accolade, the band celebrated whilst playing to over 100,000 people at an event broadcast live to a TV audience of over 2 million people. Dub Pistols were also voted ‘Best Live Act 2013’ at the Breakspoll awards.
