ORIS JAY

http://orisjay.co.uk

In 2010 Oris Jay’s influence has never been more powerful…

His dark sound revolutionised the UK garage and breaks scenes and laid the foundations for 21st Century dubstep.. this is the boy who wrote the book..

Oris also produces as Darqwan, DQ1 and RS4… He’s based in Sheffield, Steel City, home of his seminal label Texture.
In production terms Oris’s sound has been unique from the outset, influenced by dark, edgy d&b and the vibe of 2-step and UK garage. His underground anthem ‘Biggin Up The Massive’, featuring a sample of MC Ranking, is an early example of his fire…. Legendary garage DJ EZ began to rinse it, Oris broke London and the rest of the planet was fast to follow..

Tunes like ‘Said The Spider’ and ‘Raisin’ Kane’ cemented his reputation as a dark garage master, and the creator of a sound that went on to form the first blueprint for Dubstep.

There are lovers of Oris’s beats everywhere… Mary Anne Hobbs and Plastician from BBC Radio 1… dubstep DJs, Skream, Loefah, Distance and Pinch… breaks boys, Stanton Warriors, BLIM, Freq Nasty and Aquasky.. broken beat kings like Dego (4 Hero), Charlie Dark (Attica Blues) and Bugz in the Attic.. as well as 2-step names, MJ Cole, Pay As U Go and Heartless Crew.
