SAE Perth are proud to announce ShockOne will be delivering a masterclass at our campus in Northbridge!

Hailing from Perth, the epicentre of the Australasian drum and bass scene, ShockOne aka Karl Thomas is fast becoming one of bass music’s major talents.

Since the release of ‘The ShockOne EP’ in 2009, which featured the chart topping ‘Polygon’, ShockOne has been one of the hottest names in the scene. ‘Polygon’ received major air-play worldwide with highrotation play listing on Australia’s Triple J radio and BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac penning it as, “the biggest drum and bass tune out”.

2012 saw ShockOne relocate to London to make his own mark in the spiritual home land of dance music, and what better way to do it than the genre bending, production epic that is ‘Chaos Theory’.

ShockOne then toured extensively with two sellout solo tours of Australia, constant sold out shows throughout Europe as well as headlining slots at festivals such as Creamfields, The Big Day Out, Stereosonic, and Origin NYE in Perth.

2013 saw ShockOne release his groundbreaking debut LP ‘Universus’ to critical acclaim. Released on Viper & One Love recordings, the album showcases the wide ranging musical expertise of ShockOne taking the listener on a multi-genre odyssey all the way from the big bang with ‘Singularity’ and ‘Chaos Theory’, right through to the collapse of ShockOne’s universe with the Vangelis-inspired modern day electronic symphony that is ‘Light Cycles’. Universus hit the number 1 spot on the Australian ARIA albums chart and the iTunes chart within its first week of release, solidifying Shockone’s reputation as Australia’s premier bass music producer.

Following the success of this release, ShockOne spent 2014 and 2015 touring the world, with sold out shows across Australia, Europe, Japan and North America. Now ShockOne is back with his first release since his breakthrough debut record delivering the ‘In This Light’ EP featuring lead single ‘City Lock Feat. The Ragga Twins’.
