Hailing from Southend, Essex, UK, Tony Hudson is a rising name in the drum and bass scene, bringing a raw and unfiltered energy to his productions. Performing under the moniker Schema, a name inspired by his background in psychology, Tony draws from the idea that our past experiences shape how we perceive the world. For him, those experiences led directly to the rave – making the name not just symbolic, but deeply personal.
Tony’s journey into music began with a revelation – the first time he heard Skrillex’s Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites, something clicked. That chaotic blend of energy, melody, and sound design sent him down a rabbit hole of electronic music production. Though his own style doesn’t mimic Skrillex, the inspiration lit the fire. In drum and bass, it was legendary acts like Bad Company that truly resonated with him, setting a bar for atmosphere and energy that still fuels his creativity today.
While still early in his musical journey, Tony has already carved out memorable moments – most notably the success of his Oddworld rave events. These experiences, and the connections made along the way, continue to drive his passion for the scene.
When it comes to production, Schema doesn't box himself into any one subgenre. His process is instinctual – building from bass patches and letting the vibe dictate the direction. Often leaning toward darker, more ominous tones, he draws inspiration from artists like Simula, yet respects the full spectrum of drum and bass styles for their place in a well-rounded set.
Looking ahead, the dream collaboration is clear: Skrillex. Not just out of admiration, but for the opportunity to learn from one of the most influential producers in modern electronic music.
With an evolving sound and a deep respect for the culture, Tony Hudson is an artist to watch – a fresh mind shaping the future of drum and bass, one dark, bass-heavy track at a time.
