Philadelphia-based artist Starkey® is more than just a renowned music producer — he’s a true innovator in the electronic music scene. As the creator of “Street Bass,” a genre blending hip-hop, grime, and dubstep, Starkey crafts immersive soundscapes that stand out for their intricate complexity. A pioneer in introducing grime to the United States, his distinctive production style, which merges a classical music background with refined music engineering, has earned him a global fanbase and solidified his place as an in-demand composer and producer.
Since 2005, Starkey has captivated a passionate, forward-thinking audience with his bass-heavy, intergalactic arrangements. In 2008, he became the sole American producer featured on the legendary "Generation Bass" special on Mary Anne Hobbs' BBC Radio 1 show. His 2012 album Orbits was hailed by Pitchfork as “classic synth grandeur,” earning an 8/10 rating, and his 2015 release The Transponder Orchestra was named Bleep’s Album of the Week, with praise for the more expansive and ambitious direction of his sound.
From producing and DJing to running the influential record labels Seclusiasis, Slit Jockey Records, and NOREMIXES, Starkey remains an unstoppable force in the evolution of music.
