This interview highlights Calculon!

You know Calculon. His gargantuan beats have been destroying dancefloors for a decade, pushing the envelope at jungle, juke and hardcore parties around the globe. Classic tracks like “Fierce,” “Back the Fuck Up,” and "Ben Carlos" with Dave Owen have been cained on BBC Radio, RinseFM, and by dance music dons like Rockwell, Om Unit, Toddla T and Digital, while his label Shoot Recordings is continually on the cutting edge of uptempo sounds. Shit, he’s rocked from Tokyo to Fabric in London, circumnavigated the world twice, but who is Calculon really? How did this handsome California lad become such a motherfucking behemoth of bassmusic murder? Why do A-list producers line up to work with dude? And where in the hell is he taking dancefloors next? Let’s be straight: you may think you know Calculon, but you haven’t seen nothing yet. 

His label, Shoot Recordings, is a showcase for the new bass music sound being born out of juke, jungle and hardcore. Free from expectations and committed to innovation, Shoot Recordings is a place for producers to push the limits of bass music, upend the patterns of established sounds and create something new. And then shoot it in the ass and do it all again.

Happy listening! 🎶 ✨
