Scheme Boy Mixes

MDC Interview#47 " Scheme Boy "
https://mdc-japan.amebaownd.com/posts/17541804

Scheme Boy has been a major part of London’s breakcore and electronica scene for many years now. From humble beginnings as co-founder of Adverse Camber (responsible for the now infamous Awesome Power parties) to internationally recognised artist. Since his initial release on Ninja Columbo Records back in 2007, Scheme Boy has always merged his love of melodic, acid tinged electronica with smashed up hardcore and DnB grooves. Never one for sticking to any one style, a Scheme Boy set could take you through a variety of genres, tempos and sonic tapestries whilst never forgetting to keep the groove solid throughout.

Although the back catalogue of his releases would indicate a hardcore/breakcore artist (albeit a melodic one), its in his sets/mixes that you get to see the full spectrum of his sound, which covers IDM, wonky techno, dubstep, jungle, DnB and of course hardcore.

Scheme Boy has appeared on Industrial Strength, Ninja Columbo, Peace Off/Bang-a-Rang, Anticlone, Sustained Records, Nekrolog1k and Adverse Camber.

My CDJ set from The DJ Producer's 50th birthday bash at The Black Swan, Bristol, UK. This was recorded in room 2, hosted by Varispeed.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing some new bits, some old classics and even a sneaky unreleased one from yours truly ;)

Happy big 5-Oh to the big man <3

Scheme Boy at Defqon.1 Festival 2014

Today is the 15th anniversary of the 2009 glitch hop / breaks / bass / techno / wonk set I did for Spannered.org. At the time it was one of my most well received mixes and the first non-hardcore/breakcore one I did as Scheme Boy. It still absolutely slaps!

I honestly thought it was languishing at the bottom of my Soundcloud page, but I just checked and it isn’t there. So, I figured I’d fix that immediately! Enjoy :]

Scheme Boy - The Bass Boson mix [2009]

Don’t worry, this isn’t a change of direction. It’s just a bit of fun I had to get out of my system since Max Hurtdeer showed me the delights of J-Core last year. I have dropped a couple of these tracks at my monthly Varispeed Socialz shows in Bristol. They always get a mad reaction and cause more than a few confused expressions! 

So, strap yourselves on and take it like the good-time guys you are.

USAO - Big Daddy

Bang Face Weekender 2019

The Teknoist & Scheme Boy at Bangface Weekender 2019 (main room closing set)

With over 20 years DJ, production and event promoting experience, Scheme Boy has been an integral part of the UK’s underground music scene.  Whether it is Acid, IDM, Breakcore, Bass, Techno or Hardcore, Scheme Boy had covered it all... and usually in one set!

As a DJ, Scheme Boy is a festival favourite with many appearances at Bang Face, Balter, Glade, Boomtown and Defqon1 to his name. His world-renowned multi-genre sets stick out from the rest of the crowd as he weaves a sonic tapestry like no other, pulling threads from all sorts of scenes and styles to make his sound unique, personal and emotive. As someone who has worked largely within the Breakcore and Hardcore scenes of Europe, he hasn’t been scared to make melody and harmony a vital part of his set creation. There’s more to his shows than just dancefloor groove. They’re an emotional rollercoaster as well.

As a producer, Scheme Boy has worked with The Teknoist, Dolphin, Enduser, Kursa, Ben Pest and many more over the years. He has featured on the following labels; Ninja Columbo, Peace Off/Bang-a-Rang, Industrial Strength, Sustained Records, Nekrolog1k, Ad Noiseam, Rancorous Records, Anticlone, Love Love and Murder Channel. He has also been featured on a variety of video games and TV shows as well as contributing work to over 70 music education text books.

As a promoter, Scheme Boy started out co-founding London’s Adverse Camber collective, responsible for the infamous Awesome Power parties. 20 years later he is still organising events, featuring both legends from the scene and new upcoming talent, as part of his Varispeed Artist Management agency.
