James Ruskin

Croydon-born producer and DJ James Ruskin is one of the most respected figures in British techno, both for his Blueprint label and his own recordings, which are equally informed by the no-nonsense drive of the Birmingham sound as well as the adventurous sound design of Autechre. Consistently releasing quality material through Blueprint since the label's mid-'90s foundation, he's also issued several full-lengths and EPs through German institution Tresor, including 2001's Into Submission. In addition to releasing collaborations with Surgeon and Oliver Ho, Ruskin has also worked with Regis (Karl O'Connor) as O/V/R, and produced more experimental, IDM-leaning material with Mark Broom as the Fear Ratio.
