Hyperdub label boss Kode 9 (Steve Goodman) has had a defining influence on UK bass music. With a background in jungle, d&b and 2-step garage, he hosted the weekly
Fwd>> show on Rinse FM, London’s grime and dubstep pirate radio station, and was a resident DJ at
DMZ, the seminal dubstep night in London. He is also an academic, teaching at the University of East London and in late 2009, his book
Sonic Warfare: Sound, Affect, and the Ecology of Fear, was published by MIT Press. The Spaceape (Stephen Gordon) is a London-based MC, vocalist and video artist whose distinctive voice has been a frequent feature of productions with Kode 9 dating back to the earliest days of Hyperdub (as Daddi G), as well as on collaborations with The Bug, Martyn and others.
