Since first becoming friends as teenagers in the night clubs of their hometown of Bristol in the UK, Kahn + Neek have blazed their own trail and leave their mark on the world of sound system music. After making their names as DJs and producers within Bristol’s early dubstep scene, the duo went on to find themselves at the forefront of the genre’s new wave of artists throughout the 2010s, and an instrumental part of the grime revival of the same period.
In 2012, they started their own record label, Bandulu Records, to both release their music and platform other artists from within their community. With a string of releases and collaborations with staple scene labels like Deep Medi, Keysound Recordings, Butterz, and Terrorhythm, Kahn + Neek became known for a style that blends the raw, darker elements of dubstep and grime music with influences from dancehall, goth and Middle Eastern musical traditions.
In 2016, the pair curated the 90th edition of the esteemed Fabriclive mix series before featuring on BBC Radio 1’s iconic Essential Mix program in the following year.
After touring the world extensively throughout the ‘10s, Kahn + Neek have launched into the next decade full of experience and renewed energy, innovating with a signature style steeped in Bristol’s rich musical heritage and sound system culture. Resident Advisor called their debut album released this past March, Lupus et Ursus, "possibly the most significant milestone in Kahn & Neek’s journey so far, as they continue to fly the flag high for the darker side of sound system music."

Launched in 2012, Dub-Stuy is a sound system collective and record label hailing from Brooklyn, New York. They pull together different styles, traditions, and modes of production to catalyze interest in sound system culture, a movement with strong ties to America’s music history but often forgotten as time passed. Dub-Stuy traces a direct link between the roots of sound system culture in Jamaica and contemporary bass and electronic music. Focused around a custom-built 15 kilowatt system, Dub-Stuy powers a community and represents sound system culture for the 21st century.
