Boxplot is a Boston-based producer working in drum and bass, primarily the liquid / liquid funk side of the sound. Key releases include the 2015 single "Escape with the Clouds" and the 2017 Tramontane EP, which appeared on Liquicity Records. His discography also includes the Alice EP. Boxplot has received playlist and DJ support from Liquicity and from DJs such as Maduk, and has performed Liquicity sets and radio mixes, including a Kool FM appearance.
Boxplot first rose to attention in 2015 after "Escape with the Clouds" circulated through liquid-focused channels. The Tramontane EP on Liquicity Records in 2017 reinforced that profile by placing his work on a label known for melodic DnB. Subsequent releases, including the Alice EP, continued to appear in Liquicity playlists and DJ sets rather than on major commercial labels. Public biographical detail beyond those release milestones and performance appearances is limited.
His sound sits squarely in liquid funk. Tracks such as "Escape with the Clouds" foreground sustained, reverb-rich pads and clear melodic lines above a measured drum groove. The Tramontane EP shows the same emphasis on melody, with crisp, tight drum programming and tempered low-end weight that keeps the music airy without losing sub-bass presence. Vocals and vocal chops appear as textural elements rather than foreground hooks on several releases, used to add atmosphere and phrasing rather than verse-chorus structure.
On the production side, Boxplot’s work demonstrates layered drums and careful transient control. Kick and snare hits are often reinforced with sample layering and parallel compression to keep impact consistent across systems. Hi-hat and percussion programming tend toward rolling 16th-note patterns and shuffled accents to give tracks forward motion. His bass design favors sine/sub layers blended with a cleaner mid-bass patch so low frequencies stay defined under melodic material. Reverb and long-tail delay are applied to pads and vocal fragments to create the wide, cinematic spaces typical of his releases.
Boxplot’s contributions to the scene are primarily as a producer with releases that have found visibility through Liquicity’s ecosystem. The 2017 Tramontane EP on Liquicity Records is the clearest career milestone, supported by playlist adds and DJ plays from community figures like Maduk. He’s also supplied mixes and live sets for Liquicity channels and completed a radio mix for Kool FM, showing activity beyond studio releases into curated DJ content.
Specific public statements about his personal influences are sparse. The concrete connections on record are his releases on Liquicity Records, the "Escape with the Clouds" single (2015), the Tramontane EP (2017), the Alice EP, and documented support and set appearances from Liquicity and DJs such as Maduk and outlets including Kool FM. These facts map the visible arc of Boxplot’s presence in liquid DnB without extensive public biographical detail.
