BIOGRAPHY

The Freestylers are a British electronic music group, consisting of producers Matt Cantor, Aston Harvey. They have released five studio albums and a number of mix compilations for, among others, Fabric and BBC Radio.

HISTORY

The Freestylers formed in 1993 when DJs and dance music producers Matt Cantor, Aston Harvey joined forces.[2] Both of them had been involved in the British dance music scene since the early 1990s. Cantor had recorded both as Cut & Paste and Strike with Andy Gardner (Plump DJs). Aston Harvey recorded as Blapps! Posse best known for their 1990 breakbeat dance hit "Don't Hold Back" before working with Definition of Sound, Rebel MC and DJ Rap (as DJ Rap and Aston). The group took their name from their first sample "Don't Stop The Rock" by the rapper Freestyle.

The trio's first single "Drop The Bomb (AK-48)" on their own Scratch City Records in 1996 became a dancefloor hit in the UK and Miami. The band released the Freestyle EP in 1996 on Freskanova (Freskanova's parent label, Fresh, had released Cantor and Harvey's previous works). When playing live, the group consisted of Cantor and Harvey on keyboards and programming, turntablist Jason Tunbridge (Mad Doctor X), guitarist (Tony Ayiotou), drummer Clive Jenner, bass guitarist Joe Henson, MC Navigator and Tenor Fly and three breakdancers (Coza, Marat, Lil'Tim).
