TC: Drum and Bass producer
With his distinctive sound, releases on Dstyle and Valve, and remixes for BBK and V, TC is truly making waves in drum and bass.

TC left school and jumped straight into the studio with his Atari ST and sampler and started making tracks. “I’m still trying to capture the vibe. Production can be sweet, but if there’s no vibe, the tune is never going to work.” After 7 years of learning, producing, and songwriting TC, is now one of drum and bass’s brightest sparks, with all the major DJs smashing his tunes.

“I want to make music that can be enjoyed by anyone. I make every style of drum and bass because you never know where you are going to be playing. You might turn up to the gig and there’s 8000 people standing in front of you wanting you to smash it, or maybe just 300, but you have to have the right tools in your box to get the job done and take them on a journey.”

He takes a lot of inspiration from the music he heard growing up in St. Paul’s, a vibrant inner city community famed for its West Indian carnival as much as its history of riots and ghetto vibes. “St. Paul’s is cool. You hear a lot of music. I can’t say I’ve never had trouble there, because I have, but I think that kind of thing just teaches you to keep your eyes open!”

TC feels very strongly that despite his successes, his work is far from over; he’ll still be spending nights “in the lab” until everything is just right. In his own words… “The minute you get lazy, the whole thing falls apart around your ears! Sound is something that never stands still. It’s a vibration. If you want to work with sound, you’ve got to keep moving on!”
