Dillinja is a drum and bass DJ and producer from Brixton who, together with associate producer/DJ Lemon D, produce a hard, funk-break driven style of this music. He is considered a genius by many Drum and Bass fans for having pushed the boundaries of this kind of music forward from its inception in the early nineties, especially the way sub-bass frequencies are used within his music. This can only be fully experienced by hearing it over a drum and bass sound system, especially the Valve (http://www.valverecordings.com/) system, which shares its name with Dillinja's record label. Based on the earth-trembling, warm sound of the analogue Dub sound systems of the eighties, it is recommended that ear plugs be worn at his drum and bass dance parties - bass vibrations shake your entire body and different types of bass sounds vibrate different parts of your body in different ways. This is not true of most hard drum and bass in clubs.
Dillinja takes his name from John Dillinger, the American outlaw who rose to international fame in the 1930s.
