Low:r - taking things high:r and high:r with every manoeuvre. A key artist on highly respected labels such as Galacy, Liquicity, Spearhead, Soulvent and Program, his funk-fired, soul-packed signature has become more and more of a prominent flavour on the drum & bass menu since his first release in 2016.

Rooted in the rudiments, Ben Downton has always lived a musical life. As an accomplished violin player, and a member of the West Sussex Strings, he performed in cathedrals and churches across the UK throughout his teens. Swapping the bow for the bass guitar, he then played in various bands before electronic music, bass culture and the allure of the studio took over his life. 

Inspired by the music’s strong sense of community, and driven to constantly rise to the never-ending challenge of production, he first cut his teeth as a dubstep DJ before he developed the Low:r alias you see and hear today. With a name taken from a factory test unit, and an industrial strength sense of ambition and creativity to match, the Low:r sound is playfully unpredictable and dynamic but consistently charged with a widescreen sense of mischief and musicality. This is reflected both in his scene-supported releases and his DJs sets, which have ranged from shows at the iconic Brixton Electric to the renowned Liquicity Festival, Holland.

With the bookings matching his ever-expanding sound, and spreading further around the D&B-loving globe, Low:r has become a significant member of the new-generation of artists pushing the culture into exciting new directions. With each release growing in size and scale, expect the Low:r sound to become more prominent as we move into the future. Let’s take things high:r.

Rob ‘Dogger’ Smith the London-based Mancunion delivering liquid drum & bass steeped in soul. 

Smith sat in front of a drum kit before he could walk and played in bands throughout his teens

His musical landscape has been shaped by where he grew up. Manchester’s foreboding skies and frequent rain clouds mean, like so many Mancunian musicians that have come before him, he connects to music with a melancholy undertone, that’s provocative and emotional

Dogger got into DJing, and later producing, on discovering and falling in love with jungle, tracks of influence collide, specifically in drum & bass legends Calibre and the late, great, Marcus Intalex. Beyond these Smith’s influences span David Lynch, Joy Division and Björk, as well as Alix Perez, whose label has now released his music with collaborative partner Mindstate —2019’s Broken Home EP with a second, The Time Is Yours, due imminently. 


The pair like their music stripped back, allowing space for the vocal line to shine, and nowhere does this ring truer than on the title track of Broken Home. Across the four tracks, singer-songwriter Liam Bailey (Bailey laid down the vocal on Chase & Status’ 2011 classic ‘Blind Faith’), brings warmth and soul to Dogger & Mindstate’s crisp and atmospheric production — with watery pads and bright chord progressions, it’s liquid at its most emotive, and its most meditative. 

2019 was a promising year for Dogger & Mindstate, not only for their production debut as a duo, but also for a handful of career-defining shows. Sardinia festival SUNANDBASS was a highlight, where Dogger was invited to play on a lineup curated by Calibre, and the duo played the Space Cadet pool party hosted by DRS

There’s no doubt that 2020 would have been an exciting one for Dogger. That is before, of course, a pandemic brought the world grinding to a halt. But smith used the time to focus on production, both with Mindstate and on their respective solo projects, the fruits of which will come out via Dogger’s new imprint, Precinct. Besides working together, they’re also working with MC DRS, and Manchester-based vocalist [ K S R ].

Belfast-born Dominick Martin has spent the last 30 years simply creating. He’s done so with a sort of restrained melancholy that’s broad enough to encompass a myriad of tempos and genres. Over 22 albums, this includes his more song-based experimental LPs, from drum & bass into dub, techno, house, ambient, jazz, soul, blues and folk.

The same can be said of his award winning DJ sets: Fluent within his own vast range, favouring the bookings where space and time allow him to draw out a narrative and provoke emotions, predominantly based on his own material. Calibre sets draw from his own personal spectrum, never resort to hype tactics and are perennially sprung with never-before-heard surprises. Whether you experience him taking over a room for the full 6+ hour trip, or he plays a shorter higher impact role on a bigger bill, his singular signature persists: a soulfully honest sense of the transcendental and a unique perspective and approach.
