Horsepower Productions

Profile:
Horsepower Productions are truly unique. Many credit them along side El-B for the creation of the genre that's it 'Dubstep'. Originally a collective that featured No U-Turn stalwarts Nassis and Lev Jnr, more recent output as been the work of just Benny Ill, joined on the 2009 comeback single 'Kingstep' by newcomer Jay King.

One things for sure whether Horsepower is one, two or three people they"ve consistently delighted and surprised with their constantly innovative approach to production. What's most apparent when you hear their music is a diversity of influence. All born and bred Londoners - the roots of Horsepower"s sound is as culturally diverse as the city"s inhabitants. Their inspiration draws on UK Garage, Techno, House, Dub, Broken-Beat, Hip-Hop, Reggae, D&B, Funk, Soul and a massive selection of global cinema samples.
