While San Diego's veteran DJ/
Producer Phrenik made his
mark on the Southern California
electronic music scene primarily
through drum and bass,
unbeknownst to many, his
influence and impact reaches
much further. Both varied and
versatile, with high-energy
performances and critically
acclaimed productions acting as
his calling cards, Phrenik’s
position as a major player in the
world of EDM has been surely
secured.
Long a staple on the SoCal
scene, Phrenik's popularity
grew nationally and
internationally through his
highly rated radio show on
DrumnBassTV.com, "The
Resistance", which he hosted
for 5 years. After leaving the
station in 2008 to focus on his
production, his studio credibility
began to start a buzz amongst
the industry with his critically
acclaimed dubstep remix of
Rihanna's hit, Disturbia,
receiving downloads numbered
in the thousands, hitting home
with fans of both Rihanna and
the grimey dubstep enthusiasts
alike.
Since then, Phrenik’s reputation
as a respected producer was
further solidified earlier this
year when he teamed up with
renowned vocalist Jillian Ann to
create their breakthrough
dubstep hit ‘Set It Off’ which
broke the Beatport Top 100
within its first week of release
on Simplify Recordings, not to
mention also climbing to #1 in
all-time label sales for the site.
His recent follow-up release on
Simplify, entitled the ‘Exodus EP’,
saw the same amount of
success climbing high not only
in the dubstep genre but
making the top 20 on the glitch-
hop charts as well.
2011 has proven to be a
productive year so far for this
prolific artist with many of his
recent releases creating quite a
buzz in the world of bass.
Collaborations and plenty of
remix work is scheduled for
various labels including Simplify,
Heavy Artillery, Rogue Dubs,
Bombeatz Music and Sub
Pressure Recordings to name a
few. With such varied and
quality productions on such a
wide variety of fronts, and such
a buzz around his upcoming
releases, all while gathering
support from many of the
genre’s most notable producers
including Bare, Figure, Mark
Instinct, Cyberoptics and Total
Recall, It’s no doubt Phrenik is
quickly becoming one of the
new bad boys of bass music
