VEGAS (BCUK) 🇬🇧 @ REBOOT @ CLUB TABU📍
VEGAS is one-quarter of the renowned collective - Bad Company UK. Founding BC Recordings with Fresh, Maldini and dBridge in 1998, releasing The Nine as 001.
His work on Inside The Machine, its follow up Book of the Bad and Shot Down On Safari continued their trend for speaker blowing mayhem, while the Digital Nation project saw the talents of like-minded collaborators as a live act.
After Bad Company UK initially parted ways, the rise of their individual projects bloomed. Officially forming the label Bad Taste Recordings in 2007 as Vegas (today's A&R director and label boss) together with his long time BCUK partner Maldini, opened its doors to give listeners some of their first tastes of legends such as Noisia, Chase & Status, The mighty Upbeats, Urbandawn, Joe Ford, Malux, Teddy Killerz, Neonlight and many more.
With tracks under various guises going back over 25 years and Djing across the globe since his early ’94 residency in Tokyo Japan, Vegas has ventured to the furthest corners of the globe, djing in many places including Puerto Rico, Mexico, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, Brazil, America, Europe and back for his London hotspot appearances at Fabric, Printworks, XOYO and the legendary: The End. Releasing on labels such as Matrix’s Metro Recordings, Ram Records, Metalheads, Renegade Hardware, True Players, Hospital and others.
While working with some of the greatest minds in Drum&Bass, as well as behind the scenes co-founding the DATABEATS online retail system, in 2010 BLOKHE4D was born as Vegas together with Maldini and Uman, for a short time took over the world but due to unforeseen circumstances the project was taken out the back and buried in its prime, scattering its members across the distant planets.
After many twists and turns, 2015 saw him reconnect with the original supergroup through a controversial remix project of the BCUK classics. Catching the attention of the modern scene and inevitably landing them back together in the studio on a track called Equilibrium, leading to a string of singles including a remix of The Prodigy’s, The Day is My Enemy as BCUK signed to Ram Records for the road to their first album in over fifteen years: Ice Station Zero in 2018, putting him on a perpetual global DJ tour ever since.
Highlights of 2022, saw the Fresh & Vegas masterpiece - Exorcist on Breakbeat Kaos. 2023 Bad Taste Vol6, Audio & Vegas - Mukbang and an amazing BCUK 25th anniversary tour.
In 2024 the BCUK project was put back on hold until further notice, leading Vegas eagerly into a solo career for 2025, starting with a tour of America and the first in a musical string of outer-worldly projects such as, Airglo & Vegas - From The Stars and the most amazing adaptation of Noisia, Maldini & Vegas’s - Meditation, which has been remixed by Audio for Bad Taste 2025.
