The DJs behind the sound.
S.P.Y.
S.P.Y (Carlos Barbosa de Lima Junior, born 30 December 1976, São Paulo, Brazil) is a drum & bass producer/DJ based in Bristol, UK, blending house, UK garage, R&B and jungle influences. He moved to London in 2003 intending to become a graphic designer, but within six months had his first release signed to Metalheadz (2005), followed by a Hospital Records/Medschool release (2006). He has collaborated with Marcus Intalex, Total Science, Kasra and DJ Marky, released standout tracks on Ram, Metalheadz, Critical, Shogun and Spearhead (notably 'By Your Side'), and signed to Hospital Records in 2012, whose debut LP 'What The Future Holds' won 'Best Album' at the 2012 Drum & Bass Arena awards.
SARGE
Sasha Turville
Sass
DJ Sass previously performed as "Spaceface" before dropping that alias for his own name. After leaving a club role due to poor treatment by management, he became a itinerant/nomadic DJ, playing across the UK and Europe, and has expressed interest in radio work.
Scorpio
DJ Scorpio, UK hardcore techno DJ who performed at Club Kinetic (1996) and Helter Skelter Zoom (1995); distinct from the 'Scorpio' alias used separately by DJ Die and Roni Size for their Bristol jungle/D&B project.
Scott Brown
Scott Alexander Brown (born 28 December 1972, Glasgow) is a Scottish DJ/producer, now based in Huddersfield, most associated with bouncy techno but also working across happy hardcore, hard trance and gabber. While studying physics in Glasgow he formed the techno group Q-Tex in 1991 (debut live set that March), and was central to bringing harder-edged Belgian/Dutch techno influences into the UK's early-90s hardcore scene, later exporting Scottish sounds to Europe. He founded the Evolution Records label family in 1994, pivotal in popularising bouncy techno worldwide, and in 2003 became the first DJ in hardcore history to win 'Best DJ' at the Hardcore Heaven awards.

Scotty
Scotty Boy
Scotty Boy (Scott Schroer) is a Los Angeles-based house DJ/producer with over 25 years in the scene, a longtime Las Vegas resident DJ since the early 2000s. He scored three #1 Billboard Dance hits — 'Shiny Disco Balls' (2014), 'You're Not Alone' (2017) and 'Shine Your Love' (2018) — and from 2016 shifted toward Deep/Jackin' House and Nu Disco/Future House remakes. He also runs LA's 'Deep House Brunch DTLA' party and started DJing at age 14. (Note: this appears to be a US house DJ rather than a UK rave-scene artist.)
Seduction
DJ Seduction (John Kalkan), started 1989 at The Dungeons/Crowland Road and on pirate station Sunrise FM; UK charting hit 'Hardcore Heaven' (1991, ffrr); founded Impact Records and co-created the Hardcore Heaven and United Dance events.
