Steve Nobes, a.k.a. Lynx is identified for his friendly and accessible sound of drum and bass music. By fusing a commercial aroma to his club orientated grooves Lynx is injecting zest into the drum and bass scene!
Lynx was born in Portsmouth in 1978. By the age of 14 he was already DJ’ing and producing, using an Amiga 500 and a sampler the size of a credit card. As the rave scene mutated into hardcore and in turn into drum and bass, Lynx’s production techniques adapted to ensure he remained a cutting-edge artist.
Lynx has spent the last five years refining his own unique brand of drum ’n’ bass, starting with his first release Moon Warriors with Raiden (Renegade Hardware). His potential was quickly realised by Brighton based label Underfire Recordings. This provided Lynx with the opportunity to work alongside producers such as Stakka, Skynet, Skinny and Friction. Throughout 2002 Lynx pushed the boundaries of ‘techno-drum and bass’ to produce a quality blend of dance music which was energetic, euphoric and yet highly innovative. Whilst producing for Underfire and sister label, Audio Blueprint, Lynx also built a strong collaboration with Southampton based producer “The Outsider” where they recorded for A Sides label Fused Recordings.
Feeling the need for progression Lynx turned his attention to the more commercial side of drum and bass, achieving releases on Renegade Recordings. Timeout, produced with DJ Flow, (France), received great reactions wherever it was played, providing the crowd with a perfect funky summertime roller for 2003.
In 2004 Lynx released numerous records for labels such as Trouble on Vinyl and Touchin Down Recordings. Including hits such as Going Out Of My Mind, which has been championed by DJ Friction.
Similar to his tracks, Lynx’s DJ’ing is extremely diverse, playing right across the many styles of drum and bass. In all his sets, Lynx is renowned for playing mostly his own material making his sets more of a showcase than most drum and bass dj’s.
As well as recording under the name Lynx, he can be found under the pseudonyms of Tricorn (Sinuous Recordings) and Sicknote. (Botchit Breaks and Supercharged)
Through his continual producing and engineering at Airtight Studios, where he started working in December 2000, Lynx continues to forge his own sound whilst providing other artists a means to express their individuality. Lynx works as part of the management team at Airtight, as well as running the dance music section of the studio.
