Etc! Remix) Biography Sub Focus is an alias of Nick Douwma, a fast-rising drum'n'bass producer/DJ affiliated with the Ram Records collective who became one of the style's leading practitioners within only two years of his recording debut. Originally from London, England, Douwma is a self-taught producer who began producing music on his PC at age 13 and attained his know-how from software manuals. One of his demos eventually made its way into the hands of Andy C., the co-founder of Ram Records, one of the U.K.'s premier drum'n'bass labels. Signed initially to the Ram Records offshoot label Frequency, Douwma made his recording debut as Sub Focus in 2003 with the 12" release Down the Drain/Hot Line. A couple more 12" releases on Frequency followed in 2004, along with one on J Majik's Infrared label. Douwma's breakout year came in 2005, however, when he made his Ram Records debut, releasing X-Ray/Scarecrow and, later in the year, Frozen Solid/Juno; these 12" releases were also compiled on the Frozen Solid/X-Ray maxi-single in response to their widespread demand, as "X-Ray" was awarded Single of the Week on tastemaker Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show. Also in 2005, Douwma was chosen to remix the Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" in promotion of the group's 15-year anniversary collection, Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005. In subsequent years, Douwma continued his affiliation with Ram Records, releasing a 12" more or less annually (i.e., Airplane/Flamenco, 2006; Special Place/Druggy, 2007; Time Warp/Join the Dots, 2008; et al.) and performing as an affiliate DJ at clubs such as Fabric and festivals such as Glastonbury. In 2009 Douwma issued his full-length debut, Sub Focus, which incorporated an eclectic fusion of futuristic house, dubstep, and electro-rock. The following year he produced the track "Kickstarts" for British singer/rapper Example, which peaked at number three on the U.K. singles chart, and in 2011 he inked a deal with Mercury, with plans to release his second album under the Sub Focus moniker in late 2012. The album sessions went on longer than expected and spawned five singles which gained Douwma increasing recognition and success with each release, culminating in the euphoric UK no. 10 hit "Endorphins" featuring vocalist Alex Clare. The success of the single was no doubt powered at least in part by its brilliant music video, which sees brutal riot police cracking down on dissidents in a dystopian future where music has been banned. A number of other high-profile vocalists, including Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, appeared on the eventual album, which was titled Torus and scheduled for release in September 2013. - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2005 60 X Ray / Scarecrow 2009 38 Rock It / Follow The Light -1- 2010 41 Could This Be Real -2- 2010 41 Splash (Sub Focus Feat.

January 19, 201412 yr Do Rizzle Kicks have any relevance to this weeks chart?? None whatsoever! Which means they're perfect for the chart, alongside entertainment news and random competitions!
January 19, 201412 yr I'm finally starting to come around to this a bit more now (I didn't HATE it before though, it is a top 30 hit in my chart :P It's just not that good by his standards). Glad he has a second top 10 hit regardless.
January 19, 201412 yr Sub Focus is a far better choice than The Vamps pushing out quality music from the T10. Bit uncalled for. :P Not sure what you're trying to get at there especially when The Vamps aren't even in this week's chart.
January 19, 201412 yr Fantastic to see Turn Back Time top 10, really loving it now. I'm surprised Endorphins was his highest charting hit until now, I can't remember how it goes at all.
January 19, 201412 yr 'Counting Stars' grabbing another unique top 20 position. Only 7, 8, 9, 15 and 18 to go. Ok time for some completely irrelevant info inspired by Bré's post Most different positions in the Top 20 held by a record 17 "Rock Around The Clock" by Bill Haley & His Comets 17 "Stranger On The Shore" by Mr Acker Bilk & The Leon Young String Chorale 16 "Fairytale Of New York" by Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl 15 "Let's Twist Again" by Chubby Checker 15 "Counting Stars" by Onerepublic Lots on 14 including from the last few years "Rockstar", "Sex On Fire", "Bad Romance", "Mama Do The Hump", "I Knew You Were Trouble" and "Starships"
January 19, 201412 yr None whatsoever! Which means they're perfect for the chart, alongside entertainment news and random competitions! They will cause some mischief though.
January 19, 201412 yr Bit uncalled for. :P Not sure what you're trying to get at there especially when The Vamps aren't even in this week's chart. The iTunes chart suggests they will feature highly next week though :P (at the expense of Sub Focus, potentially Vance Joy sigh)
January 19, 201412 yr Fantastic to see Turn Back Time top 10, really loving it now. I'm surprised Endorphins was his highest charting hit until now, I can't remember how it goes at all. It doesn't help that the word 'endorphins' doesn't appear in the lyrics at all :lol: It'd be instantly 10x more memorable if it was just called 'Some Kind of Miracle' (or something else that's actually said in the chorus).
January 19, 201412 yr Do Rizzle Kicks have any relevance to this weeks chart?? None whatsoever! Which means they're perfect for the chart, alongside entertainment news and random competitions! Eh...they're currently scaling the dizzying heights of the top 50 so who better to have on?
January 19, 201412 yr The iTunes chart suggests they will feature highly next week though :P (at the expense of Sub Focus, potentially Vance Joy sigh) Well you could also say that Clean Bandit and/or Neon Jungle are there at the expense of Sub Focus and Vance Joy. :lol:
January 19, 201412 yr Eh...they're currently scaling the dizzying heights of the top 50 so who better to have on? If that's the case then they could've gone for Birdy or Blackstreet ft. Dr. Dre ;)

The Pogues haven't landed #20 I think? That's certainly possible to happen eventually.
