The first superstar produced by the breakbeat jungle movement, Goldie popularised drumโnโbass as a form of musical expression just as relevant for living-room contemplation as techno had become by the early โ90s. Goldie became one of the first personalities in British dance music, and the high profile of drumโnโbass as the first natively British dance music, made Goldie a figure of prime importance.
He founded Metalheadz Records and, in 1995 Goldie released Timeless – one of jungleโs first and best full-length works of art, which entered the UK charts at #7 and put him squarely at the top of the drumโnโbass heap. The beginning of the millennium ushered in a new era for Goldieโs musical production. He produced several releases during this period, the likes of which further established the rough yet similarly emotive sound with which he and Metalheadz were best known. Examples include Say You Love Me, Malice In Wonderland and Breakin Glass, each of which were instrumental in the development of Goldieโs own personal style. So too was the output of Metalheadzโ during this period: the label amassed just shy of sixty releases throughout the decade, nurturing the likes of now-globally known drum and bass artists such as Alix Perez, Noisia and S.P.Y to name a few.
Goldie has also ventured into the acting and modelling worlds, making his catwalk debut for the high end fashion house Louis Vuitton whilst his acting credits include the 1999 James Bond film ‘The World Is Not Enough’, Guy Ritchie’s ‘Snatch’ and the BBC soap opera ‘EastEnders’. At the turn of the decade he was knighted as a Member of the British Empire (MBE) for services to music and young people. With it, he became one of few electronic musicians to ever achieve such an award.
