The love of the bass put together this crew from Brussels . The selektah is Dj Bun Zero, Mr Jo plays the harmonica et 1PossMc is into toasting/mc/singing. The Sub Nerds exude beats from Dubstep, Uk Garage, Grime, UKSteppa Dub, even allowing themselves to add some Roots Reggea vibes to it. Band based on dj tracks or Dj set backed up by musicians, the crew of variable forms is definitly open to new collaborations. Bun Zero will bring beats made of electronics while Mr Jo handles his plenty of pedals (live) and let his harmonica bring the bluesy reggea dub influences. 1poss, charismatic stage performer, accurate funk singer, will let his flows take you high. You may now get low with the sub nerds.

Bun has been working as DJ over fifteen years now. He set the focus on Dubstep since it all began, around 2002, when he discovered Horsepower Productions. He actually appreciates all kinds of Uk 140bpm sub bass music. He is known as a pioneer of the movement here, having set up the first Dubstep parties since 2006 in places like Beurschouwburg. He’s hosting a radio show every Thursday broadcasted on the English station http://www.subfm.com It’s called « Fresh Off the Boat ». The show has been rewarded with « best radio show » by the dubstep forum and Bun won best international dj, the same year. http://dubstepforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=12641 In 2007 the FOB show was the second in the dubstep radio show category, worldwide http://bunzer0.blogspot.com/2008/01/dub ... -2007.html This selektah stands as a main figure of international dubstep, from eastern to western europe and in the US also.

1POSSMC
1poss was an Mc in a hip-hop crew in Brussels. After several years of rapping, he created The Peas project along with nine other funk freaks, in 2003. The next , Dj Mellow from the « FWF » crew joined the team. That’s how he met BunZ, Red Ant, Mr Jo and Protesta. 1poss took part in the Future World Funk business in 2005 and started toasting in parties across the country. The dubsteps grooves and sounds really turned him on and so they started this side project along with Bun and Jo http://www.thepeasproject.com/ http://www.myspace.com/thepeasproject
MR JO
It’s been ten years since the first time Mr Jo blew his harmonica. He’s into Brussels soundsystems since 2000, spicing up roots reggea, dub, breaks, d&b and dubstep with his bluesy feeling.
