Zero Tolerance (aka Cian McCann) is arguably the brightest rising star coming out of Dublin`s drum n bass scene. Since 2001 his production has been released on such major Drum + Bass labels as CIA, Signature, Subtitles, Liquid V, Hospital, Commercial Suicide, Reinforced, Innerground and Bassbin, amongst others. Cian`s influences range from the early 90s conscious hip-hop sounds of Pete Rock, Premier and ATCQ to UK trip hop artists and labels such as Mowax, Ninja Tune and Massive Attack. Also marked on his musical blueprint were 70s soul and funk, blue note jazz and early hardcore rave. Jungle made its way to his ear in 1995 at Dublin`s now famous Bassbin night. Fast forward to 1998, Cian was on the decks for his first gig supporting dnb giant Ed Rush. From that point on, Zero Tolerance became a resident at Bassbin and continued to evolve his much respected style. His first chance to release some music to the world came via Bassbin (No.s 1, 2 and 3) along with 4Hero`s Reinforced `2nd Wave` which also gave debuts to current DnB stars Breakage, Sonic and Silver and Beta 2. Following that he received support from the likes of Fabio, Calibre, Marcus Intalex, Klute, Total Science, Flight, Storm, Bailey, Randall and a host of the scene`s biggest players. What`s up next for Zero Tolerance? Current releases are out now on Liquid V (Anywhere Anytime ft Alix Perez / Old Oak), Signature (w/Calibre ft Merci – Waterfall/What I Feel), Integral (Refusal ft Steo/ Dangerous Liasons ft Alix Perez), Innerground (w/Beta 2 – 5 Spot/Your World) and Progress (w/Beta 2 – Beaten Track). Coming soon is The Prodigal EP on Bassbin alongside Beta 2 and Mentality and a collaboration with Survival on Revolution Records. Show less
