Leon – DJ / Producer

Leon has been immersed in music for as long as he can remember. Cutting his teeth in the Jungle and Drum & Bass scene, he quickly became a regular behind the decks at London’s underground warehouse parties and iconic venues such as The Coronet, Ministry of Sound, Astoria, Corsica Studios, Lightbox, and Club Rouge. Along the way, he shared line-ups with legends like Zinc, Friction, Loxy, Ink, and many others. His sets have also graced the airwaves of FM stations including Origin 95.2FM, Life FM, Upfront, and the original Invincible Radio alongside guest appearances on the Mighty Kool FM & Don FM 

As his sound evolved, Leon’s lifelong passion for House music — rooted in his early raving days — began to take centre stage. He became a resident at the original Solid Grooves parties in London, performing alongside influential artists such as Michael Bibi, Francesca Lombardo, Alex Arnout, Orbital, Dan Lively, Mouj & many others further cementing his reputation within the capital’s underground scene.

Today, Leon’s sound spans Disco, Electronica, Deep House, Electro, Tech, Minimal, Jackin', Dub and Techno — a reflection of his deep musical curiosity and ability to fuse soulful grooves with forward-thinking rhythms. His influences range from Q, A Guy Called Gerald, The Rat Pack, The Prodigy, Carl Cox, Jazzie B, LTJ Bukem, Goldie, Roni Size, Randall, Ben Watt, Robag Wruhme, Johnny L, Manuel Tur, Claude VonStroke, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, and many more.

Music has always been central to Leon’s life. Having learned both keyboard and acoustic guitar at a young age, and raised in a home filled with diverse sounds — from Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, and Curtis Mayfield to Depeche Mode, Pink Floyd, and Everything But The Girl — he developed a deep appreciation for musicality across genres, including classical influences.

After completing a Sound Engineering course at Islington Music Workshop, Leon began to focus on production, channelling his lifelong love of drums, beats, percussive sound, rolling bass and intricate sound design into his own music.

After taking a sabbatical to raise his beautiful son Noah, who is on the autistic spectrum, Leon is back with a bang — Soon launching his brand new label 'Beat Me Up Recordings' alongside Ed Ash. The label is more than just a musical venture: it’s a community-driven project built on inclusivity, creativity, and raising awareness of neurodiversity through the universal language of music.

With his deep roots, fresh perspective, and renewed energy, Leon’s next chapter promises to be his most inspired yet.

Watch this space — the journey continues.

Hey I'm ANTICS. I am a multi-genre Producer/artist based in the UK. I mainly produce House music but dabble into electro/techno. From a young age I would be fascinated watching my brother and his mates mixing vinyl back in the late 90's early 00's this was when my love for dance music began. my brother was also my influence into music production which started with me watching him using DAW's like Rebirth, Q-bass and what would become FL Studio.

I started messing on FLS when I was 14 and have been producing for over 15 years. I am a self taught producer.

I aspirer to make music people enjoy that is bespoke and well produced. if you are a Producer who likes my music and wants to remix or do a collaboration drop me a message!
