Black Sun Empire began making music together in 1993, but it wasn’t until drum & bass reached its peak in the mid ‘90s that the trio truly found their footing. In that formative period, Black Sun Empire drew heavy inspiration from the darker side of the genre, a movement pioneered by London based imprints like No U Turn, Grooverider’s Prototype Recordings and Ed Rush & Optical’s Virus label. By the time the Internet revolution opened a path for non UK drum & bass acts to be fully embraced by the scene, Black Sun Empire had perfected their craft and began to deliver a distinct and different sound that they could truly call their own. Today they run a well established label, Blackout Recordings, and hold an international reputation as one of the biggest names in tech/neuro drum and bass.
