About
Settle Down is a UK DJ and producer whose roots run deep in the underground. Active since the mid-90s, he first gained wider recognition as one half of Ulterior Motive, a project respected for its precision, depth and uncompromising approach to bass music.
Alongside his DJ work, he founded the label Guidelines, a platform dedicated to forward-facing club music with an emphasis on breakbeat-driven energy, high-tempo experimentation and future-focused jungle aesthetics. The imprint reflects his ongoing commitment to pushing sound forward while remaining grounded in the culture’s foundations.
His KOOL FM residency continues that evolution — exploring the outer edges of jungle and break-led electronics, spotlighting boundary-pushing producers and inviting guest artists shaping the next wave of the sound.
