Flip the script again in 2007. Tony LE is back behind the decks with sets from London to Japan to Malaysia, Australia, California, Eastern Europe an onwards. Tony also keeps it cutting edge as always by bringing you the groundbreaking Hospital Podcast. This regular show, available through iTunes, is smashing up the bandwith as people subscribe from Canada to Cape Town. Keep locked on as London Elektricity pushes things forward!

The LE saga began way back in '96, and up until 2002 LE was a double-act. Tony Colman and Chris Goss made their mark in 98 with the epic Song In The Key Of Knife, and subsequent critically acclaimed debut album Pull The Plug. In 2002 Tony took on the project solo, as Chris concentrated on taking the NHS empire to the next level.

With the release of Billion $ Gravy in 2003, phone calls from Fabio and Radio One requested a live session from Maida Vale - and lo', LONDON ELEKTRICITY LIVE was born.

For 2 years between 'Gravy' and 2005's album Power Ballads Tony and the Band have played over 150 gigs reaching a quarter of a million people with their Live Drum & Bass spectacular. With the release of Live at The Scala in 2006, the live band bowed out in style.

The past couple of years have seen Tony become the people's choice for their dnb news and upfront music as host of the multi award winning Hospital Podcast. Raking up outrageous bandwidth bills following millions of downloads the Hospital Podcast has a massive cult following, with its happily controversial host intrinsic to its success.

In September 2008 Syncopated City was released, the 4th studio album and another masterpiece from the man like L.E.

MC A.D. (UK)

MC A.D. began to MC back in 1994 at the early age of 16 at one of London’s leading Pirate stations: Eruption Fm. He started working with the likes of; DJ Zinc, Loxy & MC Rage this got him to perform at various venues such as the Astoria, The Rocket and Club UN in North London over a period of time. It wasn’t long before getting his first international gig travelling to Germany in 1997. Sadly towards the end of 1997 Eruption Fm shut down but with consistent encouragement from MC RAGE, A.D. carried on trying to break through to the mainstream DnB circuit by performing in & around the UK & Europe establishing a name for himself!

1999 was the turning point of A.D.'s career whilst hosting the Renegade Hardware show on Rinse FM this created a chance meeting with Clayton Renegade Hardware. After this meeting Clayton offered A.D. the opportunity to perform at one of their Renegade Hardware tour nights with DJ Ink that soon lead onto his residency @ Hardware. Soon after DJ Ink requested that A.D. join him on his forthcoming tour of Europe & America. During a performance with DJ Ink & Loxy in the states DJ Hype was in the building & present at one of these gigs he’d heard A.D. and was truly impressed with him. On his return to the UK Hype called A.D. asking him to join the rest of the residents at Playaz and become his personal MC at the time. Following on from this he recv’d a call from Unique Artists offering him a place on the roster & to become part of the agency where at the time some of the scenes finest DJ's and MC's were based.

Now after many years & many tours for Playaz A.D. still maintains a string of UK residencies: True Playaz, Renegade Hardware (UK/Worldwide) and Hospitality. London residencies held at Fabric:Live, Therapy Sessions, The Monday Club, Rupture & Autopsy and many European residencies.
