UK-based drum n bass producer. Making his way into Drum & Bass in true tried and tested, earn your stripes fashion – selling tickets for his local night Dilate back in 2015 – to being signed exclusively to RAM, Charlie Roberts aka Skantia’s story is one of pure graft and hard work. After becoming resident DJ at the same night he was promoting, it was during this time Charlie knew he wanted to step it up a gear and the best way to do that was to start producing. Three years down the line he’s now one of Drum & Bass’ brightest emerging talents: backed by one of the most legendary labels in the game and the biggest DJ in the scene breaking his tunes. With inspirations ranging from the likes of Culture Shock to Noisia, plus his friends and crew in his hometown of Newcastle, the 22-year-old is starting what will no doubt be an exciting journey in Drum & Bass music.
