Ed Rush

Ed Rush is the stage name of Ben Settle (born 1973, west London), a drum & bass producer/DJ who started as a b-boy before entering the rave scene. His 1993 track 'Bludclot Artattack' (with neighbour Nico Sykes) helped push hardcore's darkcore sound toward drum & bass; 1995's 'The Mutant' (with DJ Trace) and breakthrough single 'Guncheck' helped define techstep. Since 1997 his main partnership has been with Optical (Matt Quinn) — their album 'Wormhole' (1997) is considered a pivotal introduction of the neurofunk subgenre. Together they co-founded the label Virus Recordings. He is most associated with the aggressive techstep, darkcore and neurofunk styles.
