Mathematics is a New York City based production duo consisting of longtime NYC drum & bass DJ/producer James Blueline and multi instrumentalist/producer Mike Genato. Their distinct brand of musical, dancefloor driven drum & bass has been signed to such esteemed labels as Renegade, Defunked, Hospital, Frontline, C.I.A., Subtronix, Phuturo, React/Industry and Critical. Mathematics has also remixed artists as diverse as Nuspirit Helsinki (Guidance), Ils (Marine Parade), AK1200 (Breakbeat Science/Run), and have delved into full vocal work with Brooklyn-based soul singer Alison Crockett as well as jersey born soul minister, Peter Hadar.



When American drum & bass had long been ignored by the largely UK-dominated scene, Mathematics was heartily welcomed by the DJ fraternity in England, having had their music played by the likes of LTJ Bukem, Bryan Gee, DJ Hype, Fabio, Doc Scott, Marcus Intalex, Total Science, High Contrast, DJ Lee, Peshay, DJ Addiction, Nookie, London Elektricity, Blame, Calibre, Aquasky, Flight, L Double and Bailey, amongst others. Worldwide support, both in and outside of drum & bass, has come from DJ Marky, Patife and XRS from Brasil, Dieselboy, Dara, Juju and AK1200 in the US, as well as eclectic heavyweights Les Gammas, Adam Goldstone, and Jason Bentley.



While the profile of Mathematics grew with their weekly club night Physics in 1999 culminating in a massive one-off at New Yorks legendary Twilo club it wasnt until the end of the following year that production became the focus.



The classic house-inspired grooves of Feelin first caught the attention of Hospital Records back in June 2001, and was subsequently cained on dubplate by London Elektricity, boy wonder High Contrast, V Recordings head honcho Bryan Gee, and Brasilian don DJ Marky. Feelin was first featured on High Contrasts mix disc for Knowledge Magazines November 2001 issue, and saw proper release on Hospitals Plastic Surgery 3 album in March 2002.



Since their debut release in Spring 2002, Mathematics has gone on to sign many more tunes, keeping their style unique and versatile and clearly making an impact on the worldwide scene.



2003 saw the long-awaited debut of their own Social Studies imprint. Here and Now b/w Backdraft formed the debut single, the former of which was promptly picked up by Breakbeat Sciences DJ Dara for his mix CD, The Antidote. Social Studies serves primarily as an outlet for Mathematics own material, as well as material from the artists they respect and admire.
