John B. Williams (born 1977 in England) is a bass player and record producer. He is widely recognised for his very wild hair and his talent at producing cutting edge drum and bass tracks. While his trademark sound has evolved through the years, it generally involves catchy female vocals and trance-like synths (a style which has been dubbed "trance and bass", "trancestep" and "futurestep" by listeners). His most recent concentration is an '80s and electroclash influenced fusion of electro and drum and bass, which was dubbed "electrostep". At first (around early 2002), this style seemed very odd (and comical) to some in the drum and bass community. However, this move has given John the ability to carry his style of drum and bass forward. He has dabbled in darkstep, jazzstep and various other styles in his time. John Bryn Williams was born in Berkshire, England. He started producing music around the age of 14 and now is the head of a drum and bass record label called Beta Recordings. He also runs three other sub-labels called Nu Electro, Tangent, and Chihuahua. These labels were formed to cater to a the more inventive sub-genres of drum and the bass.
