Biography of Raiden
Raiden, aka Jarman has a background in music that combines tonal savagery and intricate grooves; his first public outings in the world of music were fronting a hardcore band in 94. Always a man on the look-out for new ideas, someone played him some No U-turn tunes in 97, and suddenly everything changed,the bass was exchanged for the complex depths of Logic Audio, and the sound that defines him began to coalesce.
A year of careful listening and research, a small tour of German squat-party venues, and then, in 98, he leapt straight into the relentless production schedule that is another one of his trademarks. Getting DJ slots by playing dnb sets at open-minded techno nights, he found he loved the timbres of techno, but couldnt shake his passion for a rolling break and conveyor belt basslines. He resolved to meld the two into a sound that growls like a crack-crazed pitbull, before sinking in its teeth with a grip that locks on and never lets go.
He studied at the I.M.T. in London for a year, and this led to a work placement at Airtight Studios, where he met DJ Nu Balance and DJ Friction, and began writing tunes for their label Transparent. The first of these was hugely sucessful 'Cenobyte ep', featuring the crushing 'Bulldoze'. Released at the end of 2k2 and played by such luminaries as Trace,Bad Company Kemal, Keaton, Technical Itch, Mampi Swift, Friction and Usual Suspects.
Renegade Hardware approached Raiden in mid 2k2. His debut release Fallin became a massive tune, being voted no.18 in the best tune awards of 2002 by Muzik Magazine. Fallin was also featured on the cover cd of November 2002 mixmag, which lead to wider exposure and more media attension. More epic cuts were planned for 2003, including 'All out war' Followed by his deubt Renegade Hardware e.p featuring 'Infection, 6ft Ditch, Falling(Friction and Nu Balance remix)and React'. Pigalle(Feat)Flow, and Pitbull Attack / Mindbomin as the launch release for TOV's new label Barcode as well as Pinball and a relentless rmx of his own Bulldoze on transparent. All recieving much support from some of the scenes biggest guns. He is also about launch is own label Off-Key recording to hoost his extremist brand of techno tinged funk.
This has resulted in Raiden being booked for Dj sets as far afield as the USA, South Africa, Israel, Japan, France, Beligum, Holland, Norway, Austria, Germany as well as many critically aclaimed club nights in London such as Calsh of the Titans and Angermangments 'Therapy sessions'. He is also a resident at the legendry Renegade Hardware nights at the world renouned End club in Central London, this is where Raiden first discovered the love for twisted basslines and frantic beats. Many people regard the End as spirtual home of Drum and Bass,in the same way that Detroit is to Techno.
Raidens ideal is progressive music with a beginning, middle and end, but retaining the off-key hooks, the ability to shock. The end result sounds a little (but not quite) like Axis remixing No U-Turn (or vice versa); heavy rolling tech-step breaks, vicious synth head noises, and basslines that you could mistake for seismic events. His ascent though the scene has been an unprecedented success, this rise is far from over, you have been warned!
