Barney Spigel – aka Spigelsound / Dubwise / Dr. Spigelfunk – has been producing music and DJing for over ten years. Barney got interested in the concept of music production after first hearing The Prodigy’s The Experience LP and a compilation called 100% Drum & Bass at the age of 13. He started putting ideas together using a cheap Roland GM sound module with Cubase on his PC. He later progressed onto the Macintosh platform using Logic, a hardware sampler and a rack of outboard gear and began compose breakbeat driven music influenced by the likes of The Prodigy, Underworld, DJ Shadow, Roni Size, Goldie and Massive Attack.

At his home studio, Barney has written and produced many tracks in a variety of different styles – including progressive and dubwise drum’n'bass, neo-soul, alternative hip-hop, future funk, dub and film soundtracks – some of which have been licensed for use in a range of TV programmes and one in particular was signed to drum’n'bass legend Marcus Intalex’s Soul:R label, arguably the best in the liquid d’n'b scene. This track – Smash VIP by Amaning & Dubwise – has been played out in clubs all over the planet by some of the world’s top DJs and also featured in the highly acclaimed FabricLive mix CD series on issue 35.

Barney is always working on new material, so expect to see more of his tracks released in the not too distant future. As well as being a music producer, Barney DJs in bars and clubs across London; he runs his own weekly session in Camden called Stir It Up! showcasing new and unsigned talent; he works as a sound & light technician at Soho Theatre and also works in post-production, editing and authoring DVDs.
