RHYTHM SECTION proudly presents:
TIM REAPER
Future Retro -London
If you’ve been paying any sort of attention to jungle and drum & bass during the past few years, you’ve almost surely come across the name Tim Reaper. The London-based artist is frequently touted as one of the leading figures of “new-school jungle,” despite the fact that he’s been involved in the genre since the late 2000s.
A dedicated student of the genre, he’s spent the past 15-plus years compiling an encyclopedia-like knowledge of jungle, and much of his craft—including his approach to DJing, production and his staggeringly prolific label, Future Retro London—has been heavily informed by those who came before him, particularly those who got started during the music’s golden era in the early to mid ’90s. That said, Reaper also has an irreverent streak. Alongside his friend and frequent collaborator Dwarde, he runs Globex Corp, a Simpsons-themed imprint devoted to ravey hybrids that bridge the gap between jungle and hardcore. Elsewhere in his catalog are forays into atmospheric, ragga and other variants of jungle; although he does seem himself as something of a jungle purist, he refuses to box himself in by committing to any one style or subgenre.
