Biography:

Ryan Powell aka Gridlok is one of the top drum n' bass producers in the United States. His music varies from storming dancefloor anthems such as the much sought after "Relic Rmx", to funky movers like "Warhol" and "Nosebleed. Gridlok's music can also lean towards the deeper side of things as demonstrated on his upcoming full length album entitled "Turning Pages". When not producing, Gridlok is running his new label Project 51 Recordings after managing Technorganic Recordings for the past 3 years.

Gridlok is also known for his intense DJ performances which have taken him across the United States and abroad. Using the latest tools available like Stanton's revolutionary new system called "Final Scratch", his sets always represent the latest sounds coming from his studio as well as other top producers around the world.

As a classically trained violinist from the age of 7, Ryan has had an extensive musical upbringing. When he wasn't studying violin he was experimenting with new instruments such as the guitar, bass, and drums. In his early teens he acquired his first 4-track recorder along with a pawn shop drum machine and a radio shack mic, this is where his production career began. In 1998 at the age of 20, the alias "Gridlok" was born.

Gridlok's tracks are in many respected dj's bags, like AK1200, Trace, Dom n Roland, Bailey, Loxy, Ink, Kemal, Stakka, Skynet, Tech Itch, Freaky Flow, and DJ Wally to name a few. With his recent move from Tampa, FL to San Francisco, CA, you can expect his sound to evolve in the 2002.

Blah, blah, blah, listen to the music....

Gridlok is a bad man, and on top of that, he looks like he could have been down with Soup Dragons in 92 or whenever. COS HE'S FREE! TO DO WHAT HE WANTS! ANY OLD TIME.
