Zed Bias

Zed Bias, the pioneering force behind British dubstep and UK garage, stands as a key architect in the evolution of the underground electronic scene. Also known as Maddslinky and Dave Jones, this influential producer has been shaping the genre since the late 1990s, consistently pushing sonic boundaries and inspiring new generations of artists. With a discography that weaves through the rich textures of UK bass culture, including albums such as "From the Vaults: Rare UKG 1998 - 2002" and "Boss," Zed Bias has established himself as a cornerstone in UK dance music.

His recent single "Shell Them Again" (Remix), released in June 2024, demonstrates Zed Bias’s enduring ability to innovate within dubstep and garage. Beyond the studio, his reputation as a vital live act is evident from sets at respected venues. In December 2025, he performed at the Boiler Room’s REPERcussion event in the United Kingdom, joining a dynamic bill in support of headliner DJ Shadow—a testament to his ongoing demand and scene relevance.

Looking ahead, Zed Bias will headline Bedford Esquires in November 2026, joined by Matt Jam Lamont and others, promising a night of forward-thinking live music for aficionados of UK garage, bass, and dubstep.
