Shodan

In the mid-noughties, a revolution was happening in Drum & Bass that was inspired by a shift from analogue to digital equipment. It was at this time in 2004 that Shodan's ability to construct basslines with the first wave of DAWs caught the attention of DJ Phantasy - a producer with whom a strong and creative partnership would be formed. Later that year saw Shodan's first release for Easy Records alongside DJ Phantasy & Fatman D, "No Liars". This along with "Atomic Age" propelled Shodan into the limelight, & but a few releases later came the epic rework of Top Buzz's "Living In Darkness". But it was a release on DJ Hype's Ganja Records that cemented Shodan's place in DnB history. "Gimme Da Gal" was arguably one of the seminal tracks of the decade & launched Shodan into the hearts and minds of fans & peers alike. Before long, the remixes were coming thick and fast for the likes of Aphrodite as well as releases for Trouble On Vinyl & a collab with UK Apache entitled "I Say, You Say" - all of which showcased a versatility that was rare for the genre. But after a few more releases & a foray into other forms of music yielded a killer combo with Offkey called "Boogie Down" on Pure Filth Records, Shodan took a sabbatical. Fast forward to 2018 and the fire burns bright once more, & a host of releases are already lined up for one of the most welcome comebacks of the modern era.
