Occupying the disparate 'no-man's land' between murky, atmospheric techno and experimental bass-laden electronica, NET#0 label head, Motive Power member and 47 protagonist Killawatt provides a no-nonsense and increasingly forensic attitude towards exploratory production. 

Killawatt’s performances in some of the worlds most revered club spaces provide immersion through frenetic beats and dread aesthetics that prevent the most discerning listener from getting too comfortable. The transition from dank half-step to a kinetic technoid mutation is seamless in his productions and DJ sets. Recent abstractions like 'Champagne Prerogative’, ‘Kingston Krak’ and ‘Glacia Systemic’ coalesce a mongrel helix of UK experimentation, industrial techno, ambient constructions and a driving tribalism unique only to himself.

Matty G is without doubt the pioneer of the hip hop influenced sub-genre that ever so present in today's flourishing dubstep scene. Since his first release in 2006 on US based imprint 'Argon', he has gone from strength to strength building on his sample based 90's hip hop sound and having scene defying tracks along the way all from his studio in Santa Cruz, USA. In 2007 came the massive '50,000 Watts' which set the bar for the sub-low 808 sound that many have tried to imitate since and remains a true anthem within the scene to this day. It gained support from the who's who of dubstep royalty including Caspa & Rusko (featuring on their legendary FabricLive compilation), Skream, Digital Mystikz, N-Type & Joe Nice to name a few and also received the remix treatment from dubstep pioneer Loefah, all going towards firmly cementing the track, and Matty G in the history of the sound. Later that year Matty came with another anthem in the shape of 'West Coast Rocks' which again raised the bar and received a remix from Dub Police head honcho Caspa, who also that year put out Matty's debut release for the Dub Police label on the 2nd installment of the License To Thrill series sharing wax with Rusko and Dubwoofa. In 2008 Matty released his debut album on Argon entitled 'Take You Back', which received rave reviews from all corners of the dubstep scene as well as bridging the gap even more so between dubstep and hip hop. Featuring vocals performances from the likes of Juakali and Audio Angel, the LP again solidified Matty's place among the dubstep ranks. As well as proving to be a renowned producer, Matty showed the masses he is as talented behind the decks, touring far and wide playing at such prestigious nights as; DMZ at The Mass in Brixton, Dub Police at Fabric in London and the world famous Glastonbury Festival (the largest music and performing arts festival in the world). Fast forward to 2010 and having just completed a tour of US for Scion AV along with Caspa, The Others, D1 and Rod Azlan, Matty is back in the studio on the best form of his life with numerous tracks doing the rounds and massive releases lined up including a single for Dub Police as well as remixes for Caspa and label mate Subscape. You are very likely to be seeing more of this man in the near future, 2010 is shaping up to be the year when this musical stalwart really shines through.

Keiren Lomax has had his fingers in many different musical pies for years now.  The Bristol born DJ and producer was first turned onto the dance thanks to the sounds of Easy Groove at Fantazia and immediately began collecting vinyl. As scenes changed and Keiren matured, Bristol’s famous jungle scene swept him up and took him under its wing and, before long, he was a resident at the city’s Apex party and soon went on to play further afield around the UK. 

Following a Sound Engineering and Recording Course, Keiren focussed on making his own sounds and was soon releasing on labels like Moving Shadow, Tech Itch and his own imprint Ice Minus Recordings. For the last seven or so years, though, he has been best known as Komonazmuk, a producer who operated in dubstep and post dubstep realms on leading labels like HENCH, Tempa and ApplePips as well as remixing the likes of Bonobo, Paul Woolford and Emika amongst others. 

“I think my earlier productions were pretty dark and reflected where I was at in my life. I was an angry kid so I did tend to listen to darker more aggressive stuff,” says the man who was asked to perform on Mary Ann Hobbs’ influential Bristol Rise Up show on Radio 1.  Since then he has gone on to perform across Europe and the States, as well as headlining Sziget Festival in front of thousands. 

Like all good artists, Keiren has continued to evolve, mature and explore ever more diverse sonic sources. As such, he has recently branched out as Komon, shifting slowly away from dubstep and more toward the constant punch of technoid kick drums, subtly delayed melodies and forceful low ends.  

It’s an approach that has pricked up the ears of all the right people, with Komon EPs coming on ApplePips alongside label boss Appleblim, as well as on HypeLTD with Bristol peer Arkist. As well as that there are several new remixes in the pipeline and a solo 12” on the esteemed Aus imprint in summer 2013.
