The Profile

Sam Shackleton is an English electronic music producer known for percussion-heavy, dub-inflected, and polyrhythmic explorations at the fringes of dubstep and experimental bass. He co-founded the Skull Disco label with Appleblim, released the acclaimed Fabric 55 mix (2010), the compilation Three EPs (2010), and the expansive Music for the Quiet Hour / The Drawbar Organ EPs (2012).

English producer; co-founder of Skull Disco (with Appleblim); associated with dubstep/post-dubstep and experimental percussion-driven electronics; key releases include Fabric 55 (2010), Three EPs (Perlon, 2010), and Music for the Quiet Hour / The Drawbar Organ EPs (2012).

Three glowing reviews map Shackleton’s arc from skull-rattling dubstep rites to Fabric 55’s landmark mix and the shadowed craft of Three EPs. Expect cavernous bass, polyrhythmic ritual, and ambient hush over heat. The writers hail his originality, body-moving focus, and label milestones (Skull Disco, Perlon).
