Big Bud
Big Bud, DJ/producer and label owner. Since his first release in 1994 he has been writing and producing his own music. He has released over 100 tracks including 5 albums, Infinty + Infinity in 1999 , followed up with a double album in 2001, Late Night Blues. 2002 saw the release of a 'producer' album on GLO. Fast forward to 2005 and the release of another double album , Fear of Flying .That was followed a year later by the REMIX PROJECT.
From his first release up to his latest he has consistently produced soulful and emotional dance music to critical acclaim.

Having released tracks on various labels including Creative Source, Nuphonic, Moving Shadow, ParadoxMusic , Basswerk ,Vibez, Interphase and Good Looking Records he now runs Soundtrax .

The Big Bud sound has been influenced by over 30 years of listening to Jazz, funk, Soul and Reggae. From attending jazz funk all-dayers back in the eighties thru the big raves of the early nineties up to todays drum and bass clubs he has always been a lover of quality, soulful music. It was after hearing the emergence of tracks with breakbeats that he decided to get involved in producing...

After finishing his first tunes he took them up to the club , Speed and gave them to Fabio. The result was a 3 year stint with Creative Source, releasing a handful of singles. The next stop was Good Looking Records where he spent 5 years producing a steady stream of drum and bass and downtempo cuts. After parting company with them he had to endure a two year period of isolation due to contractual problems. These two years were spent in the studio, stockpiling tracks ready for release when the time was right.

During that time he met DJ Element and was invited to join him in running Soundtrax. To date they have released 20 singles and three albums , FEAR OF FLYING , the SOUNdTRAX4LIFE .mix CD and this year the FEAR OF FLYING REMIX CD.
An ambitious project that sees Bud's last album getting the remix treatment from a varied bunch of producers on the scene....From veterans such as Nookie,DJ.Suv,DJ.Red , Beta2 + Zero Tolerance thru to nu bloods like Basic Ops. , Amaning, Henree and Motive

of d'n'b. Countries visited so far... Hungary,Serbia,Russia,Australia,New Zealand,Belize,Holland,Italy,Slovenia,USA,Germany,
