Dubock began producing as a disc jockey at the age of 16 in Southeast London, which led to him crafting remixes for several hometown acts, including Jehst, Terra Firma, and more, as well as early production credits on rapper Braintax's 2006 album Panorama. Dubock next had a chance encounter with Brooklyn-based MC Pumpkinhead, who allowed Dubock to send several beats he had created, one of which became "Battering Bars" featuring rapper Sean Price. Price would contact Dubock directly a week later for additional productions, which were subsequently placed on Price's acclaimed project Mic Tyson.[3]
