Equinox
Marlon Sterling, known as Equinox, is a London-based producer and DJ working across drum & bass, jungle and hard house. He began releasing music in the early 1990s and is best known for the 1996 track "Acid Rain", which later received a Breakage remix/VIP.
Equinox co-founded the Scientific Wax label (originally with Paul Watson). He was involved in reviving Scientific Wax around 2005 alongside Breakage. Across his career he has worked with artists such as Bizzy B.
Musically, Equinox operates at the intersection of break-driven jungle and hard-edged club music. His work emphasizes tight, club-focused arrangements: fast tempos, aggressive drum programming and pronounced low-end weight consistent with jungle and hard house aesthetics. "Acid Rain" (1996) is a clear early example of that approach and its later Breakage rework highlights the track’s club-orientated arrangement.
As a producer, Equinox’s releases appear on a range of UK labels. He has released music on Inperspective, Planet Mu, Bassbin, Subtle Audio and Metalheadz. Those label credits map to both experimental and dancefloor-facing strands of drum & bass and jungle; they also document a career that started in the early 1990s and continued through the 2000s.
On the contribution side, Equinox’s co-founding and later revival of Scientific Wax are concrete examples of his role beyond individual releases — label stewardship, A&R and working relationships that include Paul Watson and Breakage. His collaborations and releases alongside known scene names such as Bizzy B underline his active participation in crossover projects between producers and MCs.
Public biographical detail on Equinox beyond these points is limited, but his catalog — notably "Acid Rain" (1996), label work on Scientific Wax, and releases on Inperspective, Planet Mu, Bassbin, Subtle Audio and Metalheadz — provides a clear record of his activity in London’s drum & bass and jungle circles.
