In a period where Dubstep affiliated artists are making headlines and achieving mainstream success, on the flipside there remains a simmering melting pot of creativity, driven by a dedicated community of heads ensuring the underground has never been stronger. Veteran producer Tunnidge is a key proponent of this movement, and is devoted to pushing positivity and innovation whether it’s manning the decks at locations around the world, conjuring magic on the buttons, running a vinyl label or etching designs behind an easel.
Tunnidge hails from near South London’s well documented creative hub of Croydon, and draws from a unique arsenal of beats composed in varying styles around the 140bpm mark, all with an emphasis on devastating sub-frequencies. Friends with DMZ’s Mala since school days, Tunnidge’s initial involvement in the fledgling Dubstep scene came through sharing his love for art, and designing the artist’s portraits on Mala’s seminal Deep Medi imprint. These Medi heads have since become synonymous with the label and together with his burgeoning production skills, Tunnidge unleashed his inaugural Medi release, the earth shattering Geddeon / Face Melt to widespread acclaim.
Rapidly building a dedicated fan base with his uncompromising sound, Tunnidge continued to release on influential labels including Boka Records, and was the first artist invited to release a solo effort on Dj Distance’s highly respected Chestplate Records with the essential Seven Breaths / Fear 12â€. Not one to rest on his laurels, Tim has further demonstrated his industrious nature and A&R skills in heading up the promising Origin Audio, and in addition to creating a platform for his own productions, the label provides a vinyl outlet for some of Dubstep’s rising talents.
Tunnidge is an integral part of the Get Darker outfit who collectively are instrumental in disseminating quality progressive music across the globe, and as well as applying dubplate pressure on the famous Get Darker ones and twos on a regular basis, he featured on the label’s second release with Control, one of the most punishing beats of 2011 and the sublimely contrasting flip Decay. With his Deep Medi catalogue already extended with the colossal Dark Skies/ Tribe plate, and huge plans in the pipeline for both his Deep Medi & Chestplate families, expect another landmark year in 2012 from Tunnidge as he continues imprint his qualities, music and vibes across the Dubstep community.
Juakali:
"...Juakali has been lacing flows over bass-influenced tracks since his debut on Pinch’s Underwater Dancehall record in 2007. In that time the globetrotting lyricist has remained innovative across dub, reggae, dubstep, dancehall, bhangra, grime, electronic and experimental genres, always keeping the anchor of bass as the constant basis to his tracks." - lostinasupermarket.com
"You don’t come across dubstep like this too often: An MC from Trinidad, Juakali spits verses over convulsive grooves with Caribbean riddims, woozy synths and a dark underbelly..." - San Diego City Beat
"Jua has lived the evolution of the dubstep sound in the North American continent in his own skin, and has built an original style when he faces the microphone..." - Little Beat Magazine #100
"Juakali has at his disposal a distinctive MCing flair that will, in time, make him a real contender in the British underground dance scene." - aaamusic.co.uk
"Juakali's raw, familiar flow came to define the Dub War experience, a growling, prowling hype man-poet riding and amplifying the peak moments of the monthly bass ritual" - percussionlab.com
