ARTIST BIOs

J:KENZO↙ Tempa, Artikal Records, Dub Police

"J:Kenzo is the leading member of a new wave of artists on pioneering Dubstep label Tempa, as well as the founder of the influential Artikal Music UK imprint. Since 2008 he has cemented himself knee deep in the underground music scene with his signature minimalistic sound of Dub, Jungle and Techno.

Renowned for his DJ skills which have seen him tour all over the world, from Japan to Australia, to Dubai to North America and all over Europe, J:Kenzo also hosts a monthly show on London's Rinse FM showcasing his taste in everything underground.

His self titled debut album was released in September 2012 on the Tempa label with great anticipation, some say providing the antidote to the then overly brash commercial Dubstep sound. Deep underground tones, stripped back beats, smoky atmospherics with haunting keys and melodies providing the flavour throughout.

Kenzo's output has been consistent with releases and features on classic labels such as Metalheadz and Exit Records as well as a string of singles and EP's for foundational dubstep label Tempa."


THELEM↙ Artikal Records, Innamind Recordings

"Now firmly established as one of the brightest talents in the ever-diversifying Dubstep scene, Thelem has earned widespread recognition for building devastatingly heavy beats whilst always looking to create fresh and challenging directions for his music. Matt combines pulverizing sub frequency architecture with a highly varied production palette, ranging from intensely dark and skeletal halfstep rhythms to the surging raw energy of his more techno influenced sound. He is supported by some of the most influential selectors in the game.
Inspired by the textures and soundscapes of artists such as Paradox, and drawing from other Drum and Bass, Hiphop and Grime influences, Thelem showed promise early on. With a dedicated and meticulous approach to studio time, and an emphasis on high quality control of his output"


SLEEPER↙ Artikal Music UK / Chestplate Records / Osiris Music UK

"Sleeper has spent the last year or so establishing himself as one of the most consistent go-to producers within dubstep, but has not used this as an excuse to rest on his laurels and continues to challenge himself both in terms of creative direction and production technique. Expect twisted Reese basslines being draped over driving dub-techno hybrid drums and all swamped with dark atmospherics. His Artikal Records release "Ritual / Tidal" is a hulking mass of tribal ferocity; frantic atmospheres tortured by Sleeper’s sizzling leads give way to stampeding sub bass swagger and concussive war drums.

Exercising dub fundamentals; he introduces tight, swiftly syncopated extra percussion on top of thuggish half-step rhythms, slyly building incredible kinetic energy with intensely delicate finesse. With support from Mala, Youngsta & J:Kenzo"

One must also bring Sleeper's 130 output to light. With releases on renowned label, Osiris Music UK, We're sure he'll bring a set loaded with a number of 130 dubs.


ESHONE↙ Artikal Records, Elk Beats

His first instalment for Artikal Music release in February 2014 was the massive ‘Petroglyphs EP’.
