Alibi Bio:
Hailing from São Paulo, Brazil, Fabio Honorio de Jesus, known professionally as Alibi, has firmly established himself as a leading figure in the global drum & bass scene. With a musical journey that began in the mid-nineties, his upbringing was enriched by a diverse array of genres, from Brazilian samba to rock, reggae, soul, and funk. Originally formed as a duo consisting of DJ Chap (Fabio’s previous solo alias) and Level 2 (Pedro E. Lima), Alibi made a significant impact on the drum & bass landscape with their collaborative efforts.
Since early 2023, Alibi has evolved into a solo project led by DJ Chap, continuing to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories. Now based in Vienna, Austria, Alibi has become an established artist in the European music scene. He operates his audio production and mixing/mastering studio, '1020 Mastering', where he has worked on projects for renowned artists such as DJ Marky, DJ Andy, L-Side, Anile, Makoto, Dillinja, DJ Krust, Freitera, and labels including V Recordings, Innerground, Overview, Human Elements, among many others. As a radio host, Alibi presents a monthly drum and bass show on Kool FM UK, a British radio station part of the Rinse FM group, since May 2023.
In addition to his solo work, Alibi has collaborated with legendary artists like L-Side, Riya, Cleveland Watkiss MBE, DRS, MC Fats, Charli Brix, and more, further shaping his distinctive sound and musical identity. Over the past decade, Alibi's discography has garnered widespread acclaim and support from industry heavyweights. His versatile productions span a range of styles, consistently earning chart positions and DJ accolades. With his music receiving regular rotation in the sets of top DJs like Bryan Gee, Roni Size, Goldie, London Elektricity, S.P.Y., every new release becomes a download-on-sight proposition. His longstanding relationship with record labels such as V Recordings, Liquid V, and Chronic has been a cornerstone of his career, leading to seminal releases like the acclaimed 2018 album Said & Done.
Alibi has also collaborated with esteemed imprints such as Shogun Audio, CIA, Hospital, Innerground, and DARKMTTR.
