Atomic Hooligan are Matt Welch and Terry Ryan. Based in Watford, Herts, they have been working with break beat since the early 90¡¯s

The Servin it up EP, their First release on Botchit Breaks late last year thrust them firmly into the Nu Skool breaks scene to stunning effect! With its tough and intelligent production.

The EP gained support from a multitude of Club and Radio DJ¡¯s including Annie Nightingale (Radio) and reached No.2 in her essential chart, Servin it UP also caught the ear of one of the break beat scenes living legends , Freddie Fresh. At present, Atomic Hooligan are working on material for the mans label, and Freddie is interested in doing a remix for the Hooligan Camp. Keep your ears open for that one. Another high profile collaboration was with Botchit and Scarper¡¯s very own Jason Sparks, for the track ¡°The Showdown¡± from Urban Funk Breaks 2. Combining the two artist¡¯s styles was proof that break beat in 2001 could be just as musical and atmospheric as it is rough and dirty. Needless to say the track was met with very warm responses from the press and DJ¡¯s alike. Jason is not only label mates with the Hooligans, but also neighbours , so watch out for more collaborations and remix action in the near future..
