Born in London in 1967, Danny Williamson earned his nickname from the TV series Hawaii Five-O (”book ‘em, Danno”). Arguably the prime innovator in the development of jungle from its early status as an offshoot of hardcore techno into the respected, stylistic genre it became by the end of the 1990s, L.T.J Bukem gained fame as an auteur in all fields of the drum’n'bass movement: as a top-flight breakbeat DJ, owner and label-head of the goodlooking / looking good stable of labels and, of course, for his recordings — inspired by the lush strings and natural ambience of ’70s jazz-fusion masters like Lonnie Liston Smith and Chick Corea as well as elegant Chicago house and moody Detroit techno. Allied with the early-’90s rave and hardcore scene, Bukem began working on production near the end of the 1980s; though his light, airy sound made little sense to his contemporaries, Bukem’s style was emulated much more as the jungle scene gained momentum during the mid-’90s.
Thanks to his partnership with LTJ Bukem, MC Conrad has become one of the leading voices of the British drum’n'bass movement. His freestyle rhymes bring a sense of humanity and excitement to Bukem’s Good Looking Records camp’s many live performances and to their popular Progression Sessions series of albums. The British MC developed an ear for music at an early age, listening to his family’s record collection before eventually being turned on by the early ’80s electro scene. From electro, it was only a logical progression that he would soon immerse himself in the flourishing rap scene that was still developing in the mid- to late ’80s. After growing jaded with the struggling hip-hop scene in Britain, he began investigating the country’s burgeoning rave scene in the early ’90s, eventually hooking up with the ambitious man known as Bukem.
D.kay is the D&B don of the the Austrian scenen with a U.K top 10 hit (Barcelona) under his belt and numerous releases on prominent english labels such as Metalheadz, Bingo, Exit, Soul.r plus his own Austrian Imprint Brigand.
Together with Slack Hippy, D.Kay moderates the successful Breakbeat Radio Show Dogs Bollocks on FM4 and organises and DJs at the weekly D&B club Beat-It in Flex.
