Formally a rave and club DJ, DJ DB, DB Burkeman is often credited and (sometimes blamed) with bringing the subgenre of Jungle to the US. He first released drum & bass records and compilations for the label Sm:)e Communications before opening Breakbeat Science, which became ground zero for the scene. Now retired from nightlife, he’s making some noise in art & publishing by producing books on art, music and coutureculture under his full name. Rich Browd is an artist – executive creative director and designer. His work lives in a unique place, somewhere between his urban influences and his design training with the International Type Center (ITC). The results have generated an array of award winning work for some of the world’s most influential brands.
