Metrik is a London-based electronic music producer, vocalist and DJ celebrated for his pioneering approach to drum & bass. Over the past decade, his soaring melodies, explosive energy and innovative sound design have earned him top chart positions, placed him on major festival stages and cultivated a devoted global following.

In recent years, Metrik’s artistic evolution has deepened as he’s become the lead vocalist in his own music, bringing an intensely personal dimension to his sound. At the core of his music lies the powerful collision between raw industrial undertones and euphoric melodies - a juxtaposition that reveals both darkness and beauty in equal measure. By layering his voice over bold guitar riffs, metallic accents and distorted synth textures, he has forged a fierce yet emotive new direction. These latest tracks expose the vulnerable heart of the artist, channeling honest emotion through songs that connect with listeners on a deeply human level.

Looking ahead, Metrik remains dedicated to delivering immersive audio-visual experiences that captivate audiences and offer moments of escapism through music. Through fearless experimentation, narrative-rich songwriting and a powerful live presence, he continues to shape a new path that marries technical innovation with emotional resonance. In doing so, Metrik offers an electrifying glimpse into the future of drum & bass - one defined by authenticity, connection and artistic courage.

The pseudonym of Dutch producer Mark van der Schoot (32), Maduk first came to prominence via the YouTube channel Liquicity Drum & Bass  in 2011. Van der Schoot had started producing just a year before and had given his friend Maris Goudzwaard -- who ran Liquicity -- a copy of the track "Avalon" which was promptly uploaded. The liquid drum & bass sound was the perfect fit for the burgeoning channel and was released on their new label of the same name. 

Joining forces with Goudzwaard in 2013 to setup the label and their Amsterdam-based club nights, Van der Schoot continued to release on Liquicity and multiple other labels. With his brand of Drum & Bass becoming popular and winning both best newcomer DJ and Producer at the Drum&Bass Awards 2014 & 2015, Maduk released his debut album "Never Give Up” on U.K.-based label Hospital Records in 2016. 

The years after the album release Maduk focussed mainly on his label and events, Liquicity Festival now is one of the biggest Drum & Bass festivals in the world and the Liquicity community is steadily growing with sold out club shows all over Europe. Early 2019 Maduk announced to be back on the Liquicity roster and released his first new album single Go / Coming Down soon after. Later the singles Go Home (NCS), Colours / Still In Love [UKF10 x Liquicity], Company, Everytime, Back To Life, Go Back To The Jungle and Come Back To Me' followed, possibly all part of his second studio album. ~ Rich Wilson, Rovi
