Straight out of Rochester, New York, Ewun (Jake Stanczak) has exploded into the international Drum & Bass scene with an impressive list of releases on some of the industry’s most prestigious labels, including Barcode, Lifted Music, Human Resource and Evol Intent Recordings. Since his first world-wide record release, his tunes have been destroying dance floors all over the planet with an all star line up of DJ support from the biggest and most influential DJs such as: Hive, Pendulum, Dieselboy, Chris Renegade, Tech Itch, Noisia, Gridlok and Aphex Twin.
His reputation has grown from his trademark blend of hip-hop, glitched breakbeats, twisted distortion and a never ending supply of sheer attitude. Attention to detail, dynamics, engineering, and dance floor sensibilities have made his productions stand out from the masses and have gained him the respect of the global Drum & Bass community and beyond.
This past year had been an action packed introduction to the Drum & Bass realm for Ewun, complete with multiple North American tours. Releases have not disappointed, with ‘The Divide’ on Evol Intent Recordings, ‘Face Off’ and the next-level remix of the Evol Intent classic ‘Horns & Halos’ on Barcode Recordings. This year is already shaping up to be huge with a European tour in the works and a list of releases already out including the title track on the “Shades Of Black” LP and the position of producing the Album’s CD release. Ewun’s productions have also been licensed to Dieselboy’s latest mix CD ‘The Human Resource’. Still to come is his most anticipated material to date. ‘Phonetap’ makes up part of his debut EP for Evol Intent Recordings, ‘Screw up’ features for Lifted and ‘Reality Check’ brings collaboration with Evol Intent on Human Imprint.
Between work in the studio on various singles, an EP, collaborations, side projects, not to mention touring, Ewun has been paying his dues and pushing to his potential with every step. | |
