Bryan Gee:
Bryan Gee is, without a doubt, one of the most respected people in drum 'n' bass. From the early days of rave to the present, he's been an ever-present authority and tastemaker, with an untestably deep collection of dubplates and grandmaster-level A&R skills.
His career trajectory is as unique as those one-away exclusive dubs on his USB stick. Starting out in the seventies as a reggae soundsystem selector in his native Cheltenham, he eventually made his way to Brixton where he formed a deejaying partnership with Jumpin Jack Frost. As a champion of the emerging acid house sound, Bryan became well-known as a man with his finger on the pulse, earning him a job pushing the new rave-orientated music for the Rhythm King offshoot label Outer Rhythm.
This experience learning the ropes of running a label set him on the path to musical majesty. As jungle took over from hardcore, Bryan Gee linked up with Roni Size and Krust and an DnB institution was born, distinguished by that iconic sun-face logo and christened with the letter V.
That “Bristol Sound” style of jungle drum 'n' bass that Bryan helped bring to the public went on to rack up awards, international success and critical acclaim, as well as inspiring a whole new generation of artists. No wonder many current A-list producers credit those tunes as their introduction to the possibilities of this music.
Continuing to spread musical inspiration to an ever-wider audience via his Bassdrive radio show and his V Recordings podcast, Bryan's attention to quality control has become a trademark.
After all, even as his family of labels expanded to include Chronic, Philly Blunt, and Liquid V, the standards have never dropped. Even just a list of the artists who've released with them tells quite a tale. We're talking names like Dillinja, Ray Keith, Adam F, Ed Rush & Optical, Marky, Peshay, Die, Clipz, Suv, Drumsound & Bassline Smith, Break, Voltage, Bladerunner...it's a legacy that can't be disputed.
No surprise, then, that a Bryan Gee deejay set is peppered with never-before-heard dubs that drop like tactical nukes in a dance, as anyone who witnessed his immediately-classic set at Andy C's Wembley all-nighter will testify.
Decades-deep in the evolving landscape of British underground music, the champion selector Bryan Gee is at the top of his game and still rising.
Paul T & Edward Oberon:
Leading lights of the V Recordings roster, the dirty soul style of Paul T & Edward Oberon has been tearing up the dance from the start. But the roots go a lot deeper.
Londoner Paul T's journey into rave music began in the very earliest days and, after catching the production bug, he's chalked up a raft of releases on labels like Spearhead, Good Looking and Dispatch, as well as deejay support from a Who's Who of the top tier.
Meanwhile, the Welsh-by-way-of-New-York Edward Oberon was making his name as a producer, deejay and vocalist. As part of the duo Saburuko and under his own moniker, he's responsible for tunes on imprints including Creative Source, Horizons and 31, as well as output covering a plethora of genres.
With a shared love of blending emotion and grittiness within their music, it was inevitable that Paul and Edward's paths would cross seeing their brand of heartfelt but hardcore drum 'n' bass connecting with an ever-growing audience. Anthems like 'Wake Up', 'Somewhere Else' and the Serum collaboration 'Moon in Your Eyes' have all cemented their position as masters of genre defying soulful DnB.
Their 2021 album 'Strange Days' delivered the most expansive vision of their style to date; featuring an eclectic array of guest vocalists such as 2Shy MC, Cleveland Watkiss, and the mighty MC Fats; spawning tour dates and a compilation of remixes produced by peer dnb legends. Continuing in their prolific endeavours, tracks from their next highly-anticipated album – 'Reminisce' on V Recordings – are already lighting up dancefloors in the festival and club scene.
Naturally, Paul T & Edward Oberon's creativity doesn't stop at the studio session. Anyone who's caught one of their electric back-to-back deejay performances will know that these two artists bring heat to the DAW and the dancefloor alike. They consistently deliver heavyweight beats and bassline mayhem to Glastonbury, Boomtown, Shambala, Hospitality and a roll call of worldwide events, demonstrating conclusively that 'soulful' and 'soft' are not always synonymous.
Moving your feet and your feelings since 2011, Paul T & Edward Oberon are at the top of their game right now, with plans for levelling up even further. Watch for what's next!!
