Ghost Dubs featuring UK Dubstep visonary

Dave Jones, AKA Zed Bias, Maddslinky, Phuturistix... a producer and DJ from deep within the UK dance music scene. He scored his first top 30 track with 'Neighbourhood' before setting the blueprint for the darker UK Garage sound at the end of the 90s. He was asked to mix the definitive "Sound of the Pirates" compilation and at this time began to infuse a jazzier influence into his tracks. Alongside remixes for DJ Zinc, The Streets, Kosheen, DJ Hype, Bugz n the Attic and London Electricity, Zed was instrumental in the formation of an alternative urban scene that was more about the music than fashion brands.

2001 saw the emergence of the club Forward London. Forward was critical to the development of Dubstep with original residents including Zed Bias, Hatcha, Youngsta, Kode9, Oris Jay, Slaughter Mob, Jay Da Flex, and Slimzee plus regular guests. Around this time Zed Bias dropped his 2nd mix compilation Bingo Beats vol 2 on DJ Zinc’s Bingo beats imprint, a compilation that reflected the evolving deep bass and breaks driven mutations of the pre Dubstep era.

His legendary albums Maddslinky – “Make Your Peace” and Phuturistix “Feel It Out” allowed for an alternative musical outlet for Zed's production, combining the depth of soul and jazz-past with the tuff swing of garage beats. These brilliantly crafted albums accentuated his outstanding song writing talent collaborating with musicians and vocalists including Bugz n the Attic, Jenna G, Injekta, Nicky Prince & Mark de Clive-Lowe.

2008 has Zed Bias back in the studio returning to his darker sub bass driven experiments. Zed's very own heavyweight Sidestepper label has resurfaced alongside some impressive forthcoming Dubstep releases on Big Apple and Aquatic Lab which are currently being battered on Dub plate by a number of stalwart Dubstep DJ’s including N-type, Benga, Skream, Hatcha, and Kode 9.

Ghost dubs proudly welcomes one of the most innovative and diverse producers in the UK. In support, Wellington’s Dubstep crew, Strictly138 bringing the freshest original NZ Dub plates with special guest DJ Ekim warming up the night.
