SEBA

Seba has consistently given us introspective releases through high profile labels such as Good Looking Records, Hospital, soul:r, and now his darker side appears on Metalheadz. His recent collaborations with vocalists Robert Manos and Kirsty Hawkshaw, has taken his music even further into a field of mainstream crossover. Originating from Ingaro, an island just outside Stockholm, he began producing in the early nineties by making techno, but soon progressed to a more breakbeatorientated sound, which is known today as drum and bass. Since then he has also touched the musical realms of techno and house under the alias, Sunday Brunch. He strives to push boundaries, and continue to find inspiration within himself and many outside influences swaying away from the reoccurring rhythm becoming prevalent in the music of today. With the fresh presence of his label, Secret Operations, you can anticipate more activity from Seba in the future.

PARADOX

Dev Pandya is a certified breakbeat addict with a production career spanning 28 years. Having first released back in 1992, he’s since amassed a back catalogue of 9 vinyl albums and 156 12” singles on leading drum and bass labels including 4 Hero’s Reinforced, LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking, London Elektricity’s Hospital and Goldie’s Metalheadz. He nowadays runs his own imprints as the primary outlet for his tracks, with Paradox Music, Arctic Music and Esoteric each having a unique identity and focus. Producing alone under the names Paradox and Alaska, he also collaborates with the likes of Seba and Nucleus, as well as vocalists including Kirsty Hawkshaw and Robert Manos. His appetite for touring remains as strong as ever and he continues to astound and entertain crowds with his live shows, mixing banter, commentary and chat with breakbeats for a one-off PA. The musical career of Dev Pandya dates back to 1990 when Mixrace was formed with partner DJ Trax. From their first releases in 1992 on leading hardcore label Moving Shadow, the pair went on to set-up and record for their own labels before Dev’s two alter-ego guise’s emerged in 1996.

Exploding across the scene with a string of 12″ releases on Renegade Hardware, Total Science’s CIA, the seminal labels Certificate 18 and Reinforced Records, Alaska/Paradox soon became a name synonymous with abstract atmospherics and intricate breaks. His Alaska alias appeared at the same time yet focused on more ambient productions, releasing on labels such as Good Looking, Renegade Recordings, Vibez, Blame’s 720 Degrees and Tayla’s Nexus label.

When he’s not in the studio, Paradox is inevitably on tour and continues to entertain crowds with his live shows truly worldwide. Armed only with his trusty Amiga, synths and a mic, he performs a truly live PA, reconstructing tracks from his back catalogue and editing beats on the fly. He has performed over 250 international live PA’s covering Australia, USA, Asia and beyond, and continues to venture into unchartered territory to represent his sound.
