RUSTIE. Kode9. Steve Goodman, known as Kode9 (born 1973) is a Glasgow-born, London-based electronic music artist, DJ, and owner of the Hyperdub record label.[1] An MC, The Spaceape, is a frequent collaborator. Initially inspired by what he calls the "hardcore continuum", he also draws on dub reggae, and was one of the founding members of the early dubstep scene (which he views as a continuation of developments originally stemming from UK Hardcore). He appeared on the Grime compilation on Rephlex, and released two full-length albums: Memories of the Future and Black Sun (both featuring the Spaceape) on his own label Hyperdub. Kode9 has a Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Warwick and has published a book, Sonic Warfare: Sound, Affect, and the Ecology of Fear. Early career[edit] Current work[edit] In 2004, Kode9 appeared on the second Grime compilation on Rephlex records.[3] Journalist Derek Walmsley described Kode9's track "Ping": Discography[edit] Studio albums[edit] DJ Mixes[edit] See also[edit]
