Flux Pavilion, the stage name of Joshua Steele, is a central figure in the 'brostep' and melodic dubstep movements of the early 2010s. Alongside Doctor P, he co-founded Circus Records, a label that became the epicenter for the high-energy, mid-range heavy dubstep sound that dominated US festivals.
His 2010 track 'I Can't Stop' is a watershed moment in electronic music history, famously sampled by Jay-Z and Kanye West, which helped bridge the gap between underground UK bass music and mainstream American hip-hop and pop. Steele's sound identity is built on a foundation of 'wobble' bass, but distinguished by his use of melodic synth-brass and his own vocals. wav' which emphasizes modular synthesis and analog textures over digital aggression. He remains a critical bridge between the original UK dubstep pioneers like Rusko and the global EDM superstars of the modern era.
