Seattle’s Homemade Weapons made his early impressions in 2013, with his acclaimed Kintaro EP on Samurai Music; as one of the few spearheading the driving, minimal, halftime Drum-N-Bass movement. Three years later he went on to present his proof of concept via a full length debut album, Negative Space. Over the years Homemade Weapons has ceaselessly refined his craft, proving his fearsome reputation and reinforcing his arsenal. Homemade Weapons’ approach to percussive bass driven music tiptoes the boundaries of Jungle, Drum-N-Bass, and Techno, oftentimes finding itself in mixed genre presentations for its singularity. Homemade Weapons style is defined with classic jungle break edits as rapid fire emphasis tools on top of mood-soaked, kick drum rhythms. These elements combined with his trademark dub inclusions set Homemade Weapons aside in a music scene bursting with fresh talent.

With years of successful podcasts and guest mixes, and over a decade of international touring, Homemade Weapons has proven himself as a force to be reckoned with, and a performance not to be missed. Having fully internalized the musical ethos of his native Baltimore/ DC, and his west coast backdrop of Seattle, WA, his music exhibits a combination of subtlety, power, and depth, rare in any genre, but much more so in the confines of Drum-N-Bass music. Throughout the years, he has released original material and collaborative efforts on a host of labels including Armory, Dispatch, Onset, Commercial Suicide, Architecture, 117, Fokuz, Citrus, Intrigue, Ohm Resistance, Break-Fast Audio, Sublife, Melee, Granular Spectrum, Protect Audioand his own imprint Weaponry. Recently, Homemade Weapons has celebrated the end of his “Weaponry” label with a three part collection titled the ‘Disarm’ series. The series features his own productions as well as inspiring works from and with his contemporaries. 2025 brings forth more artistic and conceptual exploration with a new label, Weaponist, of which he can also be heard recording as Deapth. Don’t sleep on this new venture. Next levels achieved. This will mark his first appearance in Vermont and will indeed be one for the books.
