51 Is A Number

A true pioneer of the Drum and Bass sound, Gridlok remains one of the most highly regarded artists in the industry. With a discography spanning over a two decades and featuring classics such as ‘Moodswings’, ‘Bottomfeeder’, and ‘Standing Room Only’, it’s little wonder that the Gridlok name has become synonymous with timeless Drum and Bass.

Involved with music from an early age, Ryan Powell aka Gridlok picked up a variety of instruments, but it was after experimenting with a cheap radio shack microphone paired with a 4-track tape recorder that he soon found himself in the murky world of production. Now with the use of a computer and an E-mu sampler along with an ever-changing combination of analogue gear and production techniques, this West Coast producer has led by example, constantly exploring new ways of injecting emotion and attitude into his art. 

The grimy uncompromising style that Gridlok has developed forms the foundation for his glittering career, gaining him the attention of his peers with household names such as Shy FX, Pendulum, and Dom and Roland lining up to work with the American producer. Acknowledged by artists in and out of Drum and Bass, Gridlok has put his spin on other genres, remixing for the likes of electronica giant Josh Wink and house legend Sasha. Gridlok’s original music and remixes have also branched into other media, with his work appearing in titles such as Konami’s Dance Dance Revolution and MTV’s Challenge series. Covering a wide spectrum within Drum and Bass, Gridlok’s versatile production has allowed him to release on a diverse range of labels, spanning from Ram Records and Playaz to Commercial Suicide and Moving Shadow, whilst maintaining his signature sound....

Born in the Chernobyl era 🙂 From an early age, electronic music has been my passion and my source of inspiration. I was lucky to grow up during the golden years of the electronic scene, shaping my unique style and taste under the influence of legends such as Marco Carola, Marco Bailey, Sven Väth, Mario Ranieri, Filterheadz, The Advent, Thomas Schumacher, Leo Laker, Tomash Gee, Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Jeff Mills, DJ Amok, Chris Liebing, Frank Kvitta, Sven Wittekind, and many other irreplaceable artists.

As a DJ, I strive to capture the true spirit of this music — blending its raw, unrelenting energy with my personal sensitivity and love for deep, driving rhythms of Techno, Hard Techno, and Schranz. My sets are more than carefully selected tracks — they are an emotional journey, where every beat is a tribute to the culture that shaped me as both an artist and a human being.

Music is more than a passion — it’s a language through which I express myself, share emotions, and create genuine connections with others. Standing behind the decks is both an honour and a pleasure, and every moment with music reminds me why I gave my heart to it. The culture and openness of the beautiful people in our community restore my faith in humanity and give me the drive to get up every day.

I am active in several collectives, including Selektronika, Techno SpoT, REJVO-BUS, HVS (new initiative), and DESU (new initiative). I’m also connected with LKR Music and Methanabol labels, and a friend of Arnaca Records.

Deeply in love with Hard Techno and Schranz, but lately experimenting with plenty of new genres. ❤️
