Melvin Pelupessy, known as The Viper, has been a key figure in the hardcore music scene since the early nineties. With hits like “Come As One,” “Bulletproof,” and “Raging In The Dancehall,” he established himself on labels such as Babyboom Records, Viper Beatz, and Neophyte Records. His track “Wild & Free” is nearing 10 million streams. The Viper is also acclaimed for his remixes of tracks like Sunbeam’s “Twisted World” and Paul Elstak’s “Love U More.”

Through Viper Productions, he has worked on numerous international projects, showcasing his skills and creativity. His DJ performances have rocked stages worldwide, including Tomorrowland and major events in China, Australia, the USA, and the UK. In 2023, he launched “Ultimate Vibe,” a record label and platform for emerging hardcore talent, and released an album of the same name, featuring his signature euphoric and powerful sound.

This page is dedicated to my sons: Aidan and Solomon, they are the inspiration for everything I do in life now.

"He is best known for his work with Ed Rush, fellow head of the Virus Recordings label, and as a pioneer of the techstep and neurofunk sound. His first single for Metalheadz, 'To Shape the Future'/'Raging Calm' (1997) and his collaborative material with Ed Rush, such as the Wormhole, album (1998) were archetypal developments in the style. The duo followed this debut album with The Creeps (2000) and The Original Doctor Shade (2003), as well as countless singles and remixes. More recently, the duo have returned to form with their (2009) LP 'Travel The Galaxy' containing the modern classic 'Chubrub' and 'No Cure' LP in 2015."

"He also notably did all of the engineering and production work for Grooverider's album Mysteries of Funk, and work on Goldie's 'Saturns Return' LP. In addition, he has produced solo for many labels including Virus, Metalheadz, Prototype, 31 Records, Metro and released in collaboration with many artists, including Ed Rush, Trace, Dom and Roland, Fierce, and his brother Matrix. The first Optical release was in 1996."

"Matt Quinn's savage dance floor productions as Optical (for, among many others, Groove's own label Prototype) have earned him a place in drum'n'bass's premier division.”

"Optical's pure, unchallenged talent shines through on his solo tunes, showcasing an artist well ahead of his time. No doubt the modern sounds of the likes of D-Bridge, Instra:mental and the rest of the minimalist dark revival heads, draw heavy influence not only from Optical himself, but from his inspirations in Jazz, such as Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis. His ability to blend Jazz, Funk and futuristic, technical soundscapes is masterful. From his early work on Metalheadz and Prototype Recordings to his collaborative work on Virus Recordings and the classic Mysteries of Funk (Grooverider's landmark LP), Optical can perhaps qualify as one of the most underrated musicians of the modern era. His mind has crafted sounds which were never before heard, moods which were completely original, and his vision of the future, although ultimately dark and disjointed, is beautifully vivid and addictive. Its a world he pulls you into with each and every track and only a handful of artists can begin to dream of being this successful in their work."

Virus Recordings has become a DnB scene favourite and continues to release the ultimate in DnB vibes, with artists like C4C, Audio, Optiv & BTK, The Upbeats, Noisia, Gridlok, Ram Trilogy, Matrix, Rymetyme, Sonic & Silver, Pendulum, Mefjus,  InsideInfo

Born in Bow, East London, raised in Forest Gate / Stratford - I started on Commodore 16 / 64 and Spectrum 128K computers in the 1980s, teaching myself basic programming and making my first sounds. Alongside everyday listening — breakdance (1986), acid house (1989), UK hardcore (1991), drum & bass (1992), jungle (1994), and into darker DnB  Tech Step through 1997–2030. I learned to DJ in 1993 and became involved with London pirate radio from 1994 onward, broadcasting across London on Underground FM, Pressure FM, Raw FM, Conflict FM, Rude FM, and Weekend Rush FM, as other aliases 205 - APEX - Ulterior Motive - Voyage - continuing to the present day with the Biotech Radio show (available on YouTube). New music inbound.

Take A Cutter is a sound producer and composer. Take A Cutterr is different heavy and bold bass and multi-layered drum line. 
Drums are written live on AKAI MPC. The first EP, more precisely, its first - Vaterland is like a compilation of longing for Germany.  Ultra-right ideas and music  and relations that ain't actual and  today. But this stuff actual for my white bros.

Take A Cutter ist ein Tonproduzent und Komponist. Take A Cutterr ist ein starker und kräftiger Bass und eine mehrschichtige Drumline.
Das Schlagzeug wird auf AKAI MPC live geschrieben. Die erste EP, genauer gesagt, ihre erste - Vaterland ist wie eine Zusammenstellung der Sehnsucht nach Deutschland. Rechtsextreme Ideen und Musik und Beziehungen, die heute und heute nicht aktuell sind. Aber dieses Zeug wirklich für meine weißen Bros.
