Subtronics

Born Jesse Kardon on 23 December 1992 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the US dubstep and EDM producer known as Subtronics made a name for himself with his five-volume mix series Now That's What I Call Riddim, offering a wide-angled snapshot of the bass scene which saw the producer fold in cuts from the likes of Skrillex, Doctor P and others. After kicking off his career in 2025 with the 3K Free EP and subsequent releases like 2016's Cyclops EP and 2018's Depth Perception, he put himself on the map with "Griztronics," a joint effort with Michigan-based electronic whizz GRiZ, which went to number nine on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart in 2019. In December 2020, he launched his own label, Cyclops Recordings and has since put out several releases on the imprint, including 2020's String Theory and 2022's album Fractals. In 2023, he was named Dubstep Artist of the Year at the Electronic Dance Music Awards (EDMA) while in 2024 he teamed with Rezz for the "Black Ice" single.
