30 Years of Metalheadz feat. Loxy

 

Emerging through pirate stations such as Eruption FM and Underground FM, resident at seminal London raves such as Desire and Thunder & Joy, Loxy has been a formidable force in jungle drum & bass since the very beginning. The north London DJ’s reputation was galvanised in the mid 90s as he became an integral part of two UK D&B institutions; Metalheadz and Renegade Hardware. Resident at both label’s events – at cult venues such as Blue Note and The End – his ability to draw for darker, heavier dubplates than any of his peers was at the heart of the genre and culture’s acceleration. Stepping on after Loxy and 2Shy at The End was one of the gravest challenges any DJ could face during that time.

Thanks to his consistency, blinkered focus on his own sound and his own weapons, Loxy’s reputation remains as fierce as ever. In the years that have passed since his first manoeuvres, he’s launched labels such as Cylon Recordings, he established the The Four Horsemen collective (with Ink, Dylan and Keaton) and created slews of work with long-time sparring partners Ink and Resound who he formed ILR Studios with in 2019… And proceeded to batter down our lockdowns with material throughout the 2020ies.
