Bladerunner is the stage name of Devan Alexander Gray. He is a UK-based (East of England) producer and DJ working primarily within drum & bass and jungle, with output and live sets that also touch on liquid funk, drumstep, dubstep, breakbeat, trip hop and spoken word textures.

Public biographical detail on Bladerunner’s early life is limited. What is documented: he emerged in the UK scene as a producer and DJ and has released on established drum & bass labels, including V Recordings and Hi-Resolution. He is a member of the Kings Of The Rollers collective alongside Serum and Voltage, and he has toured and DJed internationally. He also holds production credits on various compilations and releases.

Sonically Bladerunner is known for heavy rollers, deep basslines and atmospheric production. Practically, that translates to tracks built around focused low-end design—layered sub and mid-bass elements with saturation and filtering to give weight and movement—paired with long, wide atmospherics and pad layers to create space. His drum programming emphasizes tight, punchy kicks with swung or chopped break fragments to maintain groove; percussion is often treated with parallel compression and transient shaping to keep clarity under heavy bass. Where vocals or spoken-word elements appear, they are used as texture—time-stretched, filtered and placed in the mid/high bands to sit above the low-end rather than clash with it. In DJ sets he favours records that push sub weight and forward momentum: selections that sustain the roller feel while allowing room for more liquid or downtempo passages within a set.

Career highlights documented in public sources are label releases on V Recordings and Hi-Resolution, membership of Kings Of The Rollers with Serum and Voltage, international touring as a DJ, and production contributions to compilations and various releases. Those label appearances and compilation credits anchor his profile inside the drum & bass market; his role in Kings Of The Rollers positions him alongside Serum and Voltage in a crew context rather than just as a solo name. As a DJ he presents material that leans toward heavier rollers and deep bass-driven selections, matching his production signature.

Direct artist connections that appear in public records are his membership in the Kings Of The Rollers collective with Serum and Voltage and his releases on V Recordings and Hi-Resolution. Beyond those named associations, public sources do not list a detailed set of individual collaborators or a full discography; available facts focus on his label releases, collective membership, international DJing and compilation credits.

Bladerunner’s catalogue includes releases on V Recordings and Hi-Resolution and production credits on various compilations, and he remains known within the scene for the heavy rollers, deep bass and atmosphere that define both his studio work and his DJ sets.
