DJ SS
Formation Records | World of Drum n Bass | UK



One of the UK's finest DJ/Producers and one of the founders of Formation Records, DJ SS aka Leroy Small is an original breakbeat pioneer who has made an immense contribution to today's drum & bass sound.
SS is one of the very select DJ / Producers who has been there right from the start, due to the hard work and dedication that he puts into his music. When the hardcore scene exploded SS was there and hasn't looked back. He and his partner Eidris started promoting their own parties called Total Kaos every Friday in their hometown of Leicester. They also put on one of the first large indoor parties at Donnington Park in the summer of 91. It was an amazing success and 6000 people danced till dawn. DJ SS himself born and bred in Leicester is a self-taught scratch DJ and found fame scratching his way through the era along with break-dancing his way on the streets of Leicester. He progressed onto the rave scene and was one of the first on the worldwide scene to DJ his own produced tracks. Things moved quickly from there as SS taught himself how to produce a high calibre of music and also coached others to produce to equally high standards. DJ SS has an enormous list of tracks and used various aliases. Over the years he's had countless releases on Formation Records as well as doing remix work for other artists. He has released such tracks as 'The Psycho E.P', 'Rhythm For Reasons', 'Breakbeat Pressure', the Drum & Bass anthem 'Black', with the highlight being ' Lighter' which was Formation Records best seller, reaching the number 1 spot in the Music Week dance chart and reaching number 68 in the music charts. It is a track that has remained incredibly popular and still continues to be played years on. Not only has his label Formation during the years had many big tunes released, they have also had many big DJ/producers release records on the label. The list is strong, big and endless including Carl Cox, Grooverider, Shy FX, Ray Keith, Bryan Gee, Frost, Roni Size, Krust, Kenny Ken, Ratty, Matrix, John B, Mickey Finn, Twisted Individual and Distorted Minds. In between this huge success he has also been the driving force behind some of the finest talent now established within the scene, his most recent sensation arriving in the form of Twisted Individual, who has had made a huge impact on the scene with releases on Formation Records and sister labels Reformed and New Identity, as well as his debut album Tooled Up. He has also convinced Zen, old friend of Twisted Individual, to take the plunge and move from London to Leicester to join the Formation team after several releases on 5HQ Recordings and the last couple of years has seen his debut appearance on Formation Records with Minefield as part of the 100th release, and sister labels Reformed and New Identity. By now you would think there was no more room at the camp but he has made room and persuaded Geordie duo Generation Dub to leave their roots behind in Newcastle and head southbound for Leicester. The duo have also taken the scene by storm with the recent remix of Champion Sound, as well as Detonate and Monster Sound on Formation and Reformed, have got some serious beats in store, including Body Snatchers - a track of theirs currently doing the rounds on the circuit thanks to the select few DJs who have managed to get their hands on a copy. Aside from the studio, SS's reputation for throwing parties gets bigger and better. This year he is stepping up the events program and teaming up with some of the best promoters around to bring parties in Leicester, London, Manchester and of course the legendary World of Drum & Bass Party in Miami which was held in March 2003 after his tour of Australia and the US. After so many years in the game, this year sees the 100th release on Formation Records, and what a massive release he has lined up. So far the confirmed tracks include the huge track 'Warriors' by Distorted Minds, which is currently being caned on dub by everyone lucky enough to have a copy, also 'Heavy Metal' by Twisted Individual, which Grooverider is currently championing. Other artists that feature include Hazard, Influx Datum, DJ SS, Zen and new boys Generation Dub. DJ SS is now putting the finishing touches on his hotly anticipated LP concept the S-Files. This will be released as a series of EPs and as a CD album and will feature varied and diverse styles of drum and bass that reflect SS's own wide tastes. Today SS spends most of his time producing in the studio and travelling all over the world to DJ. His travels have taken him throughout Europe, Australia, Canada, the United States of America and Japan. When SS has any spare time he is dedicated to football and is an ardent Manchester United fan and an enthusiastic local football player.
