24 year old Dominic Malinverno a.k.a. Elefant Doc, has been pursuing music since the age of 5. Starting with classical and flamenco guitar as a boy, as time went on he discovered his passion for various types of music such as Jazz, Reggae, and Metal. At 18 he went to his first underground party in San Francisco and discovered Dubstep and Drum & Bass. Soon after, he started dabbling with production and Dj'ing. His recent inspiration comes from the fusion of Jazz and Dubstep, and anything with soul, melody, and rhythm. His sole purpose is to create. And music is his gift to the world.

A nice write up courtesy of
Juno Download:
"Representing the creativity that's been rife in dubstep since the commercial bubble burst, Elefant Doc has cooked up a beautiful sound that tethers aspects of jazz and soul with stunning bass creativity. "Walkin'" confidently pumps with a cool organ riff and majestic melodic flurries, "Tonality" gets smokier with an infectious off-beat darkness and jazz-primed piano shots, "Street Sheet" is the most arresting of the set thanks to its vast space and emotional chord structure while "Fool Me" is the jazziest of the bunch thanks to its minor chords and infrequent trumpet blasts. Each one sits right at the forefront of a genre that's enjoying its first proper rebirth. Essential listening."
