ˈspɪrɪt noun 1. the non-physical part of a person which is the seat of emotions and character; the soul. Duncan Busto, alias Spirit, was sadly lost to the drum and bass community after suffering a cardiac arrest in August 2018. Duncan played a pivotal role in the growth and development of drum 'n' bass, producing many memorable hard edged dancefloor fillers. In 1992, he began working at Redeye Records in Ipswich, and by 1996, he was producing full-time, with albums such as 'Mendacity/Delusions' on Timeless Recordings (Big up Brillo) and 'Open Spaces/Science Fusions' on CIA Records. Duncan released records with iconic drum and bass labels including Metalheadz, Shogun Audio, Renegade Hardware, and Function as his career evolved. He also collaborated with artists such as Photek, Klute but most prolific with Digital which led to Phantom Audio being founded in 1999. Duncan will be sadly missed but his music will live on....
Co-Founder of Metalheadz, owner of 31 records who's also known as the king of the rollers (for a very good reason), Doc Scott has been in the scene even when the scene wasn't fully formed. A true drum and bass roller.

In 1991, Sean O'Keefe, began creating music with the hardcore band 2 Bad Mice, co-writing their smash song "Bombscare." He began writing and releasing music under the moniker Deep Blue in 1993, recording "Helicopter Tune" for the Moving Shadow record label. Deep Blue was one of numerous Moving Shadow musicians to leave the label in 1997 and start their own label, Partisan Recordings. In 2003, O'Keeffe recorded a joint album under the moniker Black Rain with Rob Haigh, who had previously recorded for Moving Shadow as Omni Trio. I was lucky enough to have captured Sean @ a circles night in the Hare and Hounds, Birmingham.
Yay!
