He is widely recognized as having helped lay the foundations of what Dubstep is and helped develop what it has become. Fostering a unique sound, Distance as producer, DJ and label owner has been pushing things in a direction all of his own. Gathering early support from the legendary John Peel and going on to be part of the utterly seminal Dubstep Warz show on Radio 1 presented by Mary Anne Hobbs, Distance has forged a name for himself as a critical figure in the scene.
As a stalwart of the all the biggest dubstep raves (DMZ, FWD and Exodus) and with bookings notched up around the world, he is very much at the forefront of the scene. From deep to devastating in one dubplate switch up, Distance’s sets have been devastating dances across the world. His dubplate selection will give even the most bass battered set ups a full performance check.
Distance's recorded output is also formidable, finding homes on labels as underground and seminal as Hotflush, Destructive and Boka in his early career, to ending up on the world reputed Planet Mu, on which Distance released his debut album in 2007.

A label set up with the intention of showcasing the freshest of his own productions which have been destroying clubs and flooring radio listeners ever since.
