Markee Ledge

Markee Ledge began writing songs on guitar before being drawn into the UK acid house movement, raving during the Summer of Love in 1988. By 1991 he had embraced electronic music, buying his first sampler and attending the Castlemorton festival, a defining moment in his journey.

After moving to Bristol, he co-founded Ruffneck Ting with DJ Dazee in 1993 and later formed Decoder & Substance with Decoder. Through his Breakbeat Culture imprint, he helped launch artists including DJ Fresh and laid the foundations for Kosheen. His career has included global performances such as Coachella, TOTPs, Jools Holland and recently on Diplo’s Revolution on Sirius XM.

Following Elevate, Markee’s sound blends vocal-led tracks with cutting-edge underground production, working with Alys Be, Susie Ledge, Jodie Elms, Seven, dubspeeka and DJ Youngsta. His recent work includes the Equinox Series, culminating in the Laws of Emotion album, alongside the Mind, Body, Soul trilogy exploring human perception.
