emplate first heard the sounds of Jungle/Drum & Bass in the summer of '96 and was instantly enchanted. A drummer, and heavily influenced by hip hop, metal, industrial, classical and jazz; emplate believes drum and bass embodies everything he had been listening to and loved before it.

In '99 he knew that listening was not enough. He needed more than mixtapes and parties to get his fix. Inspired by the DJs around him and his love for DnB, he dedicated himself to seeking knowledge, selection and skill. emplate soon became respected both technically and for his sets that interweave neurofunk and darker, minimal DNB tunes that are often peppered with liquid dancefloor tracks if the mood is right.

In 2006, emplate became a resident DJ at the former weekly and nationally recognized DnB event "in:verse". Always interested in moving the scene forward, emplate helped develop The Cleveland Drum n Bass Coalition and (216)BASS, both local platforms that Northeast Ohio DnB heads used as a vehicle to further their careers. In August of 2014, emplate joined up with Rockers Music. Excited about having a DnB label out of Cleveland, emplate spearheaded the local launch of the Rockers 175 label with the “Step Inside” & "Kismet" monthly events held at the Beachland Ballroom, bringing in names such as: Lenzman, Doc Scott, Total Science, Zero T, The Prototypes, Crissy Criss, DJ SS, Aphrodite, Dara, AK1200, Dieselboy & more. After stepping away from the label & the turbulent life of event promotions, he focused on being the best DJ he could be...taking his mixing to new levels & determined to prove that he's underrated, not only in his hometown & state, but the U.S. as a whole.

For two decades, emplate has been known for his diverse selection of up to date releases, promos & unreleased tracks & plays accordingly to timeslot, crowd & vibe.

You know what ... after this sentence, the rest is kinda provardo. To tell you the truth, I play what makes me feel good. Welcome to my bag of mixes, mostly D&B and liquid, but I like to play a fusion of sounds to tickle minds and create visual soundscapes. I have been mixing since 1993. Started on Technics 1210s with vinyl morphed to CDJs then my ikkle beauty a Numark iDJ pro by algorithm, somewhat rare iPad integrated controller. Now im back where I started on vinyl with the added luxury of time coded records to add into my mixes.  Anyways, I do what makes me feel good at the time cos, well thats all we got. Browse and hopefully find something that tickels you. Feedback always welcome, good, bad or darn right ugly. x

Finally, I wana give a massive shout-out and bags of respect to all music producers. For me,  you make my world go round.

Liquid drum & bass stalwart Fluid Form hails from the sun-kissed beaches and emerald waters in the panhandle of Florida, USA. His sound is heavily influenced by the atmospheric, jazzy, funky, soulful and deep side of dnb, especially the late 90s, early 2000’s and 2010’s sounds. Fluid Form draws inspiration from past, present and future soundscapes, crafting his compositions from unique samples, sonic layers, and atmospheric textures. He weaves a myriad of flavors from a deep pallate of musical styles blended with crisp layered drum breaks and rolling basslines to showcase his smooth signature soul-fueled beats. 


Climbing through the ranks and continuing to hone his production skills, he has established himself on some of the scenes freshest imprints. Fluid Form continues to gain global support through his original works, his bootlegs, and his collaborations.
