Career
Solo's first releases were "125th Street" and "The Danger", co-produced with label boss Dave. Solo and Stone went under the name Click and Cycle.
In 1997, he moved to Brighton and set up a studio with Stone. Solo started working with DJ Brockie and the pair made "Reprasent", Undiluted's first release, which reached number one on all the drum-and-bass charts.[citation needed] Brockie and Solo continued to make more songs, including "Turntable 1", "Echo Box" (on the True Playaz label) and "System Check".
Solo became involved in the nu skool breaks in 2005; his studio was located above Krafty Kuts's old record shop. He then began working with Krafty Kuts and later the pair began co-producing music together on Krafty Kut's album Freakshow (2006). Within Nu Skool Breaks, Solo has also collaborated with musicians including Deekline, Darrison, Skool of Thought, as well as mixing down tunes for breakbeat artists including Freq Nasty and Splitloop.
In 2007 Solo collaborated with Skool of Thought to release the underground dance album Random Acts of Kindness, which, in a 4* review in DMC World, was said to feature a "raging party-starting mentality".[1] Between 2008 and 2010, Solo had been making dubstep music such as the anthemic "Age of Dub", which was released on Sludge, a label he established with Deekline. Throughout the 2010s he released Jungle music with Deekline on their label Jungle Cakes.
