UK-born and bred DJ and producer Conrank has quickly established himself as one of bass music’s most innovative voices. After spending years as a globe-trotting musician, including an 8 year residency in Shanghai, Conrank settled into his new home base in Los Angeles, CA in early 2017. In just a few short years, Conrank has swiftly earned the reputation of tearing down any dancefloor he plays to, without exception; bringing his melodic yet frenetic brand of dubstep, grime, and drum n’ bass to stages all across the world.

 

 

Conrank cut his musical teeth initially as a beat-boxer in London during the creative peak of the UK grime & hip-hop scene. After touring Europe with neighborhood friend and fellow beat-boxer Killa Kela, Conrank switched gears to track production towards the end of the decade; finding his feet as an artist and writing music for commercial campaigns (Levi’s, etc). After spending years as a bedroom laptop producer he finally emerged as a full-fledged DJ in 2010 with his first live performance, wowing a crowd of thousands at London’s infamous ‘Secret Garden Party’.

 

 

FuntCase aka James Hazell is a producer, DJ and dubstep pioneer from Bournemouth, UK. He is known for his controversial ‘filthy’ style.

James first expressed his love of music through jamming with his schoolmates, taking his energetic and aggressive drumming style from death metal as well as being heavily influenced by happy hardcore and jungle, growing up to a background of Helter Skelter and Dreamscape mixtapes. After hearing ‘Bandwagon Blues’ by Twisted Individual, James fell in love with the drum and bass sound and began to focus his talents on producing. Sharing his tracks with D&B radio stations led to the first recognition of his foot-thumping talents, under the alias DJ Dose he released for the first time in 2007.

 

 

In 2009 James began to dabble with producing dubstep, giving his tunes a big energy by incorporating the drum and bass layering technique into his dubstep sound. His first track ‘Make Our Day’ was quickly signed to 4:20 Records. And so began the raw sound that is FuntCase.It wasn't long before FuntCase began trading tracks with Doctor P, and an offer soon followed to bring James into Circus Records with the release of his famed release ‘So Vexedbeatboxer with ‘Mattress Punch' on the flipside, in 2010.

 

Since then the phenomenon has grown, FuntCase has gone on to create tracks with Trolley Snatcha, Cookie Monsta, Eptic, Foreign Beggars, Virtual Riot, jPhelpz, MIK, Engine-EarZ Experiment, Dubloadz, Daniil Svetlov, Lewis Cutler, Dirtyphonics, Doctor P, Max Headroom, Genetix, Jakes, Persist, Southbound Hangers, Roska, Swindle and Modestep.
