Doctor P — September 2026

Doctor P, the stage name of Shaun Brockhurst, is an English dubstep producer and DJ born 9 April 1986, who co-founded Circus Records alongside Flux Pavilion, Simon Swan, and Earl Falconer in 2009 — creating one of the most influential labels in the first decade of the dubstep genre's mainstream development. His production catalogue established a sound built around punishing bass weight, melodic accessibility, and the rhythmic half-time structure that became dubstep's commercial signature in the early 2010s. Tracks including 'Sweet Shop', 'Tetris', 'Big Boss', and 'Watch Out' each exceeded five million YouTube views, an accumulation that reflected the degree to which his productions resonated across the genre's peak commercial period and remained reference points for bass music producers in the years that followed. In March 2020, Circus Records released Animal Vegetable Mineral Pt. 2, Doctor P's first full-length album — a follow-up to the landmark 2012 EP Animal Vegetable Mineral Pt. 1 that had given the bass world four widely influential tracks. The significance of Animal Vegetable Mineral Pt. 1 as a formative document in dubstep's development means the full-length follow-up carried the weight of a foundational discography behind it. Doctor P's bassPOD appearance at EDC Las Vegas 2026 brings him into a b2b3b set with Flux Pavilion and Funtcase — a reunion of Circus Records' central figures in one of the most anticipated bass music sets of the festival, placing the label's founding artists together on the stage most aligned with their original genre contributions.
