Murdock

Murdock (Hans Machiels) is a producer and DJ best known for work in drum & bass and adjacent bass music. He records and performs as Murdock, is based in Antwerp, Belgium, and released the 2024 album X‑Ray.

Publicly documented milestones map his entry and rise: he founded Radar Records (previously) and is now founder and CEO of the Rampage events brand and Rampage Recordings. His releases appear on established drum & bass labels including V Recordings, Viper Recordings and Dispatch, and he tours internationally as a DJ and producer.

Musically Murdock spans core drum & bass styles and crossovers into broader bass music. His catalogue and collaborations show range: a co‑production with Netsky points toward melodic/liquid‑leaning writing at times, while releases on Viper and Dispatch and remixes for Rudimental, Gorgon City and Zeds Dead document dancefloor and bass‑heavy approaches. Those credits indicate a practice that moves between polished, DJ‑ready arrangements and heavier bass‑centric edits rather than a single stylistic lane.

On technical grounds, public notes on Murdock focus on outcomes and collaborators more than studio minutiae. The available record shows him operating in roles that combine production and DJ practice: studio collaborations (for example with Netsky), official remixes of crossover acts (Rudimental, Gorgon City, Zeds Dead), and curating/deejaying for Rampage events. That combination has placed his work into festival lineups and international bookings where drum & bass meets broader bass and festival programming.

Career highlights in verifiable sources include international festival performances — Tomorrowland, EDC Las Vegas and Hospitality in the Park are listed among his appearances — and steady label activity on V Recordings, Viper Recordings and Dispatch. He also runs Rampage Recordings and programmes Rampage events, providing a direct outlet for his own releases and bookings tied to his DJ profile.

Specific collaborations and remixes remain the clearest markers of Murdock’s connections: co‑production with Netsky and official remixes for Rudimental, Gorgon City and Zeds Dead. Beyond those named credits and the 2024 album X‑Ray, publicly available biographical detail about studio techniques and early career chronology is limited; the facts above reflect the documented record of his releases, labels, performance credits and label/event leadership.
