dRAWBACKS; dBs to their friends, started life on the London breaks scene in the late 90's. The Brothers R were either recording, in A&R meetings, or getting slick at 333 Old Street and Friction, bumping into the likes of Orbital, Freq Nasty, Rennie Pilgrem, Adam Freeland and Dave Tipper, whilst lamenting the fate of those who are poorly managed, with A&M A&R legend Johnny Matthews. D & TJ were signed to Bolshi/Big Life sometime during this purple-hazy period as Hijinx. After a lengthy recovery spell at the Abbey, dBs decamped to their studio 'Controlled Environment' and dipped into the murky waters of synchronisation (composition to picture), pumping out a score of bloody remixes and EPs and licensing music to anyone who could afford them and who didn't have a track record of killing people (directly) in the third world. Prime dBs cuts have graced the screen hundreds of times for the likes of Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, CBS, The Sopranos, CSI Miami, DC Comics and BMW to mention but a few.
Oct 2001 saw the brothers hook up with tech punk legends Pitchshifter in New Jersey to lay the breaks on their 'PSI' album. Following this righteous conflagration, Dan was asked to join Pitchshifter, shortly followed by TJ.
dBs leave the studio on occasion to work with other enlightened souls (including drummer Alex Baker - introduced to dBs by Prodigy trapsman Keiron Pepper and MC ADD from the amazing Transformer de Roboter) interspersed with occasional DJ sets. 2007 sees dBs pushing their techy-glitchy-dark electro-punk to even dizzier heights with cuts like Puke it Out and NFA showcasing their unparalleled programming talents and gaining mass acclaim. WORD!
