This page is dedicated to my sons: Aidan and Solomon, they are the inspiration for everything I do in life now.

"He is best known for his work with Ed Rush, fellow head of the Virus Recordings label, and as a pioneer of the techstep and neurofunk sound. His first single for Metalheadz, 'To Shape the Future'/'Raging Calm' (1997) and his collaborative material with Ed Rush, such as the Wormhole, album (1998) were archetypal developments in the style. The duo followed this debut album with The Creeps (2000) and The Original Doctor Shade (2003), as well as countless singles and remixes. More recently, the duo have returned to form with their (2009) LP 'Travel The Galaxy' containing the modern classic 'Chubrub' and 'No Cure' LP in 2015."

"He also notably did all of the engineering and production work for Grooverider's album Mysteries of Funk, and work on Goldie's 'Saturns Return' LP. In addition, he has produced solo for many labels including Virus, Metalheadz, Prototype, 31 Records, Metro and released in collaboration with many artists, including Ed Rush, Trace, Dom and Roland, Fierce, and his brother Matrix. The first Optical release was in 1996."

"Matt Quinn's savage dance floor productions as Optical (for, among many others, Groove's own label Prototype) have earned him a place in drum'n'bass's premier division.”

"Optical's pure, unchallenged talent shines through on his solo tunes, showcasing an artist well ahead of his time. No doubt the modern sounds of the likes of D-Bridge, Instra:mental and the rest of the minimalist dark revival heads, draw heavy influence not only from Optical himself, but from his inspirations in Jazz, such as Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis. His ability to blend Jazz, Funk and futuristic, technical soundscapes is masterful. From his early work on Metalheadz and Prototype Recordings to his collaborative work on Virus Recordings and the classic Mysteries of Funk (Grooverider's landmark LP), Optical can perhaps qualify as one of the most underrated musicians of the modern era. His mind has crafted sounds which were never before heard, moods which were completely original, and his vision of the future, although ultimately dark and disjointed, is beautifully vivid and addictive. Its a world he pulls you into with each and every track and only a handful of artists can begin to dream of being this successful in their work."

Virus Recordings has become a DnB scene favourite and continues to release the ultimate in DnB vibes, with artists like C4C, Audio, Optiv & BTK, The Upbeats, Noisia, Gridlok, Ram Trilogy, Matrix, Rymetyme, Sonic & Silver, Pendulum, Mefjus,  InsideInfo

A comedy podcast with two friends who want to curse at the world.

Drum and Bass in all it's Glorious Glory from all over the world!

On to the good news then: I have a new co-manager. He is my brother, he has a diploma in sound engineering, produces dnb, dj's, and is currently doing a university degree in media. I hope he'll bring some media management skills to the party so that we can get this ball rolling again, and pick up where we left off.

With two of us running the show there's less chance of both of us being irresponsible (haha), and we should have more time to manage things properly.

Greetings fellow World Records crew!
My name is Bennett and I am a drum ‘n’ bass Dj and producer from Adelaide, South Australia using the moniker Skunkwerks. I have a Diploma in Audio Engineering from SAE Studios here in South Australia. I am also currently doing a degree in Media at The University Of Adelaide.
Josh has kindly made me Co-Manager World Records with him. There are a few of us down here in Adelaide starting to make some seriously nice sounding tunes and I hope to get some of them onboard in the near future.
I’m 26 years old and a qualified sound engineer with about 7 years Djing experience. I have produced across different genres but have recently focused solely on drum’n’bass as it is the superior form of music. 
Josh and I are committed to making something awesome out of World Records and look forward to working with a wide and varied range of artists. We hope to establish a label with some real public recognition as a means to get all of our music heard worldwide (and hopefully sold on a commercially viable basis).
I will happily put up some bits of mine for remixing and will most likely send some of you guys out a remix request. 
Initially, If necessary, I can master tunes by myself in my studio with the possibility of full professional mastering in a multimillion dollar studio in the future.
Exciting times, look forward to communicating with you all in the future.
Regards,

Bennett Joy,  
Co-Manager, DNB WORLD RECORDS
