John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

Skynet

Skynet (real name: Nathan Vinall) is a producer of drum and bass music from Brighton, United Kingdom. Around 1996 Skynet met Stakka (real name: Shaun Morris), and helped him in his studio between sessions with K-Tee. By 1997, they had made Underfire Recordings and Audio Blueprint, two labels as an outlet for their work, with K-Tee, Skinny, and Friction joining them. From 1997 to 2002, Stakka and Skynet worked together and ran the labels, releasing 41 Extended Plays and 3 Albums, Voyager, Blazin, and Clockwork. In 2001 they moved to Seattle, in the States. A year later the two friends separated as they decided to part ways. Skynet returned to Brighton, while Stakka went to New York. Additionally to his cooperation with Stakka, he has also worked with other artists such as Dom & Roland, Konflict, K-Tee, Skinny, and others. He has also produced dubstep music as the style became more popular in recent years.
