ARTISTS
BRYAN FURY
‘Fury’ is a hardcore institution in himself. The mob boss of the quality shitting Pacemaker & Provoke records and also the artist agency NG-NG.net ..without him Ninja Columbo wouldnt reach your homes or would not have even existed. Hes astounding to watch DJ and play Live and an utter force to work along side (when hes not saying everything i send him is ’gay’ anyway haha). Utter brutality launched into those little cones on the side of your head and i cant wait until we finaly get our Ninja Columbo ep together.
SCHEME BOY
..or Fashion Ash as i like to call him. Utter electronic music monster and only 3ft 2inches in height. Ash’s skill is ridiculous and his live sets and music take the proverbial piss. A joy to collaborate with and someone that inspires me everyday.
RANDOMOIDZ
Rory is a storm driven funk demon. From the same collective of super talented Londoners as Ash and with just as much dynamite in his ears. Winner of both the London & Bristol live set competition, ‘Laptop Battle’ and someone i love to watch just in normal day life aswell as when utterly engorssing a crowd into his music.
DURAN DURAN DURAN
Breakcore legend and my partner in ‘getting the garys out’ on many occasions. Ed Flis has always been at the front of the cue when inspiring and constantly getting even better production skills are being given away at Tesco. A guy with so much amazing energy and enthusiasm for music in general that i could talk to him forever. Im really looking forward to putting out some of his techno on the mp3 labels as much as his core on vinyl.

DETEST
German hardcore extrordinaire and with a primal need to bombard the world with his own twist on core. Im very excited about the projects we have lined up for this year with Daniel.
MACHEEEN BOI
A DJ with a kick like an admantium terminator mule and the king pin of Sustained Records, a label at the forefront of cutting edge balls out hard Drum & Bass & Core kinda music. He loves screaming and rum which is why i think we get along.
You can download his infamous Sustained Records ‘Miserable Sodcast’ which both myself and old Scheme Boy have been blabbering guests on below on his website, along with some choice mixes that i think will peel the wallpaper from your damp ridden walls

ENDUSER
The master of super weighty dnb and breakcore. Powerful live and great to just listen to at home, Lynn has a sound that cant be copied and works wonders with a style hes come to own over the years.. Great guy all round too and memories of an empty bar or 2 while gigging together spring to mind :) I quote, ‘Bow down to the mighty Enduser’.

MICHAEL J ROCKS
Is not 1 but 2 guys, Pirate Jack and Bar Scene Luke (not actual separate artists names ;).
When you play Bristol alot you get used to seeing a huge array of great talent but no one really stands out more to me live than these 2 fucking gems. To listen to at home they’re great, super nice production.. very crisp and tight sounds but i honestly believe to get the most from them is to witness the sonic assault they bring upon a live crowd. They hands down stole the night at my birthday gig a few years back and that was after a handful of unbelievably awesome performances from seasoned pros haha! I’v begged both of them for a release for years and when i started the ZoMb3/FREE labels i knew it was their time. Digital Music in a digital age, washing over you like having a bath between disc matches to the death in Tron.
ENDAH
I met Fabian at 09’s Norberg festival while playing my 1st ever live techno set. He’d come over not knowing who was on but liked what he was hearing.. We got chatting throughout the festival and he showed me some tracks of his own from his i-pod saying that we share a similarity in edits comparing what he was showing me to the set i played the night before (i had to play the usual Core live set the following night so he’d not heard that yet) but what was on his i-pod was pure fucking gold, especialy his slower broken and twisted electronica. Now he’s bombarding me with music almost everyday and everyday im astonished at the quality of music he seems to churn out like a machine… the 1st ZoMbFREE of his is just an introduction to this boys talents and there WILL be more to come on all formats!

DOLPHIN
Nothing but ever inspiring and one of the main reasons i started the label. A total super producer imo & in his own words ‘mash up tunes for a tenner genuine geezer’.

DANIMAL JAQUES
Half of the Sustained Records super management duo & Ninja Columbo’s resident head hunter, pig gutter and harder than Mike Strutter. Danimal is what youd get if the Tazmanian devil came from Harrogate and joined the Paras.. Ultimate driver trooper and fellow glass muncher extraordinare. He loves ‘riiiight fish butties’ but doesnt like ‘them holy crisps’..
…
as you can see below, dressed in ninja columbo uniform, Dan wont take no suckers or chumps invading our camp….
long live Danimal Jaques
