CHRIS.SU [Hungary]

Tactile / Subtitles / Hospital / Renegade Hardware / Commercial Suicide / Timeless / Shogun / CIA / Uprising / Advanced / Critical

At 25, Chris.SU is one of the commanding producers and DJs of the Hungarian scene and amongst others has put his country on the map for drum and bass. Since “Astro-Sine”, released on Trace’s label DSCI4 in 2002, his tunes have been in rotation from drum and bass’ finest DJs, including Klute, Teebee, Ed Rush & Optical, Matrix, Digital, Spirit, Concord Dawn, Ill.Skillz, BSE, Pendulum, Bailey, Flight, D-Bridge and Andy C.

Chris’ musical career started early, as a cellist he had classical musical training since the age of 7. As soon he got his first PC in 1996 he immediately started producing electronic music in various genres such as hardcore techno, breakbeat and house. He remembers a gig in 1999 with Bad Company as one of his first big inspirations to start making drum’n’bass. A year later he was signed to Subscope Recordings and soon his first 12” was released (“Time Warp” b/w “Angel”).

Soon Chris was Djing all over the world including the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand and numerous European countries. Besides his own work Chris has made various collaborations, including Desert Siege (Commercial Suicide, 2004) and What’s Happening (Hospital, 2006) with SKC. He is also a member of a group called TACTILE consisting of five people: SKC, Longman, Bratwa, Safair and himself. Their debut album SUPER SYSTEM (4×12 LP) has been recently released on Timeless Recordings.

JADE [Hungary]

Moving Shadow / BSE / Citrus / Project 51 / 1210

Jade aka Gábor Simon, heralds from Budapest Hungary, the home of many well known European producers. He began making music in 2000 along with Matt-U, which culminated in the release of their debut 12” ‘Got Lost’ in 2004 on BSE Recordings. The pair went on to put out a string of successful records on labels such as Moving Shadow, 1210 and Citrus.

Now a fully fledged solo artist in his own right, Jade leads the pack when it comes to dance-floor tech focused drum and bass. A masterful audio engineer, his tunes always have a distinctive sound that is often imitated but never beaten.

Keep an eye out in the future for more top releases, including a 12 for Gridlok’s Project 51, and an EP on Citrus. Moreover, his debut LP is due to hit the shelves late 2008.
