NEXT GENERATION has been in operation label since 1996 and is the flagship label for DJs and producers, Brisk & Ham. This UK based label focuses on high end Hardcore music with the ethos of quality over quantity. Responsible for some of the biggest tracks within the Hardcore scene, NG continues to deliver the good on the global dance floor.

BLATANT BEATS has been in operation label since 1997. It's the official sister label to Next Generation and was originally born through the need of an additional outlet to cater for the sheer volume of output through the NG studios. The BB band wagon continues to roll onwards and upwards with an ever expanding catalogue.

STIMULANT RECORDS was established in 1999 and  began life as Trance label before turning to Hard Dance (Hard Trance, Hard House, Tech Dance) after 10 releases. Featuring numerous club anthems and big name artists and remixes within the Hard Dance scene, Stimulant has developed a cult following both domestically and globally.

I like to play many styles such as Trance, Techno & Oldskool but my passion is Hardcore. 

I've played at Traks, Molly Sweeney's as well as other venues and been lucky to be on the same lineup as the likes of John O'Callaghan, Scott Brown, QFX, CLSM, Nu Foundation (RIP), Tizer (RIP) and many others.

Martin Pearson is a UK-based electronic dance music (EDM) artist recognized for pushing creative boundaries in the genre. He holds an official world record certified by the Official World Record association (a registered NGO that certifies niche achievements) for the Highest Lyric Density in a 4-Minute Dance Track. In this track, he packs 1,420 words into exactly 240 seconds—averaging nearly 6 words per second—while maintaining high-energy EDM production elements like beats, drops, and rhythm. This feat stands out because traditional EDM often prioritizes instrumental layers and minimal vocals, making dense, rapid-fire lyrics rare and technically challenging without sacrificing clarity or danceability. Pearson produced the record-breaking track in Cubase, ensuring vocals integrated seamlessly with the energetic soundscape. The achievement highlights innovation in EDM, blending intricate storytelling and lyricism with club-ready beats, potentially inspiring a new wave of lyrically focused sub-genres. Beyond this record, Pearson appears to be an independent or emerging artist in the dance/EDM scene, with limited mainstream visibility or major label discography noted in public sources. His work emphasizes technical skill and genre evolution.
