Biographie (en anglais) de l'artiste D'n'B anglais Red One.

Red One AKA Scott Bourne is a multi-talented major player in the Drum & Bass world. His labels; Ram and Frequency are much respected, and Ram now in its fifteenth year still remains in a league of its own when it comes to supplying the dance floor. His own tunes have always been a case of quality rather than quantity, purely because there aren’t enough hours in the day. Moving onto Red One the DJ; wicked DJ, always brings the vibes, never better showcased than at his very own legendary club night Ram @ The End which is nothing short of a drum and bass institution that helps push the scene forward.

Scott originally started his career in Drum and Bass as a promoter in the early 1990's putting on 'Imagination' parties in the Bishopsgate area of London. After inviting Andy (Andy C) out to a few of his parties Andy was immediately blown away by the DJs and the concept of mixing. This led Andy to ask Scott to help him buy his first pair of turntables and teach him the science of beat matching. What followed for Andy can only be described as an addiction, and due to the shear intensity of his practicing it wasn’t long before Scott saw something special and believed he had something that was worth promoting. So Scott went on to get Andy his first radio slot on pirate station Syndicate FM, and bookings at both Elevation and Telepathy.

In 1998 Scott produced and engineered 'Hard Edge’ which made it’s way on to Ram’s 'Sound In Motion’ LP. In the same year he collaborated with Ant Miles on the massive 'Strangled Duck’ which was released on Ram’s sister label Liftin’ Spirits and went on to become the labels’ best seller up to that date.

Scott decided to become full time label manager for Ram Records in early 1999 and take care of the business side of things for the label, taking on responsibilities such as A&R, press, promotions, manufacturing, accounts, and a whole lot more. Scott’s management related achievements include various 'Best Label' awards, managing an acoustic drum anthem 'Body Rock' up the UK singles chart to reach number 28, and the conception of Andy C's Nightlife series.

In 2002 Scott set up Frequency Recordings with Andy C. The label was set up for the specific purpose to help new up and coming enthusiasts get established in the Drum & Bass world. To date Frequency has given birth to major D&B stars such as Sub Focus and is now homing music for established artists such as Moving Fusion, Shimon, Sonic and Red One himself.

Even though Scott’s continually busy on the label front, managing releases for Ram, Frequency, and there affiliated labels, Scott loves nothing more than to produce and play on the DJ circuit. His most notable recent releases being: 'Sweet Music’, 'Pitch Switch’, Pump Up The Volume' and not forgetting the memorable 'Believe in You’ which featured on Liftin’ Spirits. As for the DJ circuit, Scott has toured the world extensively playing at some of the world’s most prestigious venues and festivals playing to crowds in excess of 10,000 people.

Red One is nothing short of a drum and bass expert; he knows everything there is to know about drum & bass. For the most part because he does everything there is to do in drum & bass almost on a daily basis! He DJs, produces, engineers, manages, promotes, you name it he does it all. Just about everyone in the scene knows him and everyone respects him.
