Coming out of the jungle scene Sheffield's Oris Jay a.k.a Darqwan carved a name for himself way before he revolutionized Uk Garage by bringing true darkness to the sound, paving the way for dubstep alongside producers like El-B, Steve Gurley and Zed Bias.

Darqwan also produces as DQ1 and RS4 and runs the label Texture.
