Stepper Sons est un projet de deux frères producteurs venant de Bordeaux, ayant débuté en 2016. Le groupe est alors composé de deux membres : Balthazar (Hugo) et Cthulhoud (Hadrien).
Tous deux ayant les mêmes influences et les mêmes aspirations à se lancer dans l'électro-dub, ils sortent rapidement un premier EP, "Rise Of The Stepper Sons" sans label et sur soundcloud pour prendre leurs marques dans la scène locale.

Après quelques dates dans des salles bordelaises sous l'aile de l'association Dirty Knees, ils sortent début 2017, un deuxième EP "The Red Warrior Journey", toujours sans label.
De février 2018 à février 2020, Raoultek rejoint le projet. Il en aboutira alors un premier EP labelisé, chez Marée BASS.
Intitulé Nausicaa, cet EP reprend des thèmes du film éponyme de Miyazaki à la sauce Electro Dub.

Ils montent alors un format live multipistes accompagné de synthé, melodica et autres instruments du monde (guimbardes), allant du dub stepper pour finir en steppa trance/raggatek, rejoignant cette nouvelle branche du French Dub.
Indian Vibes, sortant en avril 2020, signe le retour d'un album produit en famille suite au départ de Raoultek du projet.

Indian Vibes est un projet aux influences multiples où dès la fin de l’intro vous ouvrez la porte sur un album façonné de manière progressive, visant à vous faire voyager du dub à la trance ou encore du dubstep à la tribe. Mûri depuis plusieurs mois, cet album s’adresse à tous les amateurs de dub et de bass music voulant découvrir un univers qui ose mêlé plusieurs styles !

08 - Jungle Funk - Stepper Sons

First, second, third generation 
We are all Manutension’s children!!!
 
Two decades after its birth in Jamaica, Dub Music finally arrived in France. Throughout the country, there were different points of contact and a main one was the city of Bordeaux. In the 90s, this breakthrough was especially around the band Improvisators Dub. 

Among the instigators of the project, Manutension did not limit himself to play the guitar during the gigs. He also persisted to spread the Sound System culture around him, by regularly hosting dances and inviting people such as the UK Dub scene, hitherto unknown in France. Manutension and the Impro inspired others very quickly. It is first the Uzinadub crew who proceeded from the end of the 90s under an Electroroots6tm configuration with someone called Dub Machinist. 
Later on, it is him who inaugurated the Control Tower label of his friend Sir Hill, another survivor of the Uzinadub. A new generation determidly got into the Dub adventure with the new millennium. One of the most virulent activists, Gary Dub (he will become Gary Clunk only after) was part of the Natty Breakz collective and was one of the creators of the French Dub Released netlabel. Subsequently, he founded the Storm & Break label with his buddy Hatman, and he set up the groups Uptown Rebel then Subvivors, always in a live Dub spirit inspired by Improvisators Dub. 

Dub Machinist and Gary Clunk are therefore two representatives of what is now called the Bordeaux Dub School, which directly descends from the experimental work of Manutension and Impro Dub. 

In 2020, our two accomplices isolated themselves ten days in the countryside to create an album with four hands for the netlabel Culture Dub Records. On the program of “Dub Machinist meets Gary Clunk”, twelve tracks in which electronic loops, digital keyboards and instruments played live respond to each other in a joyful fusion that does honor the French Dub Touch as defined by the pioneers of the 90s.  

After an introduction reminiscent of how machines have forever changed the way we think about music, Gary Clunk and Dub Machinist do their best, on punchy stepper rhythms, to juggle different atmospheres: horror films for 'From the grave' , digital with blues atmosphere on 'Saloon walk', melancholic accents on 'Do you hear', travels in Indian lands with a sitar on 'Dub Mahal', science fiction on 'Jaffa dance', at bottom of theremin, or still jungle on 'Jungle Land'.  
The two artists sign the remix of ‘Mr Babylon', a musical tribute to their fathers with their vision from the original Improvisators Dub track resulting with a clear and distinct sound without embellishment. 

It is much more than the meeting of two emblematic producers of the Bordeaux Dub School, this album is a great moment of dub. Quite simply. Zagazai!
