Along with Lee "Scratch" Perry, who he regards as a mentor, Neil Fraser (pictured) has been largely responsible for shifting the boundaries of dub and reggae since 1982.
Emigrating from Guyana at the age of 13, Fraser earned his scholarly alias thanks to his obsession with electronica, building his own radio and mixing board as a teenager.
By the mid-80s his Ariwa recording studio had become a fervent mill of reggae excellence, producing classic albums from the likes of Pato Banton and DJ U-Roy.
His own catalogue of releases have explored everything from Afrocentric jungle to political roots and he has produced and remixed albums for a host of high-profile bands, most notably on Massive Attack's Protection LP.
