Deathsucker Records

Stivs

In 2000 Stivs started mixing and helping to organize at Life4Land, a soundsystem and later a record label in Cambridge, playing breakcore, gabba and jungle. He started producing in 2003, developing a particular talent for writing ragga based jungle, dubstep and tekno styles unlike anything else out there, but deeply inspired by soundsystem culture. He is also a member of the D.S.C with Ed Cox who have been voicing ragga artists such as  Daddy Freddy and Murray Man.

A big inspiration to his music was touring europe in 2006, with Ed Cox an Pieface, playing clowncore and Life4Land mash up jungle at technivals and clubs dressed as clowns, with the support of many of the English soundsystems, returning with new drive and ambition, not to mention the respect of many people across the U.K and Europe.

Stivs regularly plays sets all over Europe and the U.K, at various nights including the biggest underground night in Bristol, Genr8r. Playing at Subliminal Discharge with Parasite lead to a release with Death$ucker Records with Johnny Clash, and later a 2×12″ EP release on the same label.
