Freestylers

UK breakbeat duo Matt Cantor & Aston Harvey

The Freestylers, a pioneering UK breakbeat and drum and bass duo comprising Matt Cantor and Aston Harvey, have cemented their reputation as a mainstay in the British electronic music scene since forming in 1996. Their genre-defying approach and electrifying live performances have consistently placed them at the forefront of underground club culture, with a catalogue spanning innovative studio albums and high-energy remixes.

In July 2025, the Freestylers delivered a headline set at Boilerroom in Guildford, a testament to their enduring pull as live music favourites. Their dynamic presence on the stage continues into 2026, where they are set to bring their formidable sound to the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds as the main support for Dub Pistols' album launch show. Such appearances highlight the Freestylers’ ongoing influence and their ability to command both headline gigs and significant support slots alongside acclaimed acts within the electronic and breakbeat circuits.

With a discography that includes releases like “Other Worlds” (2021) and the forthcoming albums “Other Worlds - Remixed” (2025) and “Enter the Sound” (2026), the Freestylers continue to evolve while staying true to their breakbeat roots.
