Serial Killaz
Serial Killaz
The second the needle hits a Serial Killaz record, you know what time it is. Ragga-fuelled vocals, chest-rattling basslines, sharp-cut breaks, and pure jungle euphoria, that unmistakable sound is their calling card. In a world full of imitators, few acts carry such an instantly recognisable signature. But when your roots trace back to the earliest days of rave, that vibes run deep.
Formed in 2005 by Tera and Vital Elements, Serial Killaz are the undisputed masters of the modern ragga jungle sound, a duo who’ve spent nearly two decades bridging the gap between classic Soundsystem heat and contemporary Drum & Bass fire. Their productions bubble with authenticity, connecting the dots from reggae and dancehall to hardcore and beyond.
Long before Serial Killaz was a name on flyers worldwide, both members had carved serious reputations in the underground. When they joined forces, everything clicked.
Their early remixes for the scene’s legends — from Cornell Campbell, Marvellous Cain, and Wayne Marshall to Peter Bouncer, Damian Marley, and Daddy Freddy, showcased their ability to rewire roots classics for a new generation. Authentic, powerful and full of raw Jungle energy, the Serial Killaz sound became Jungle’s new standard.
At a time when many producers were chasing trends, Tera and Vital Elements doubled down on their Dubwise foundation, creating a style that’s both instantly familiar and completely fresh, rumbling bass, riotous skanks, and positive energy by the truckload.
Zane Lowe championed their tunes on BBC Radio 1, Toddla T enlisted them for custom productions, and their remix of Land of Promise by Nas and Damian Marley earned international acclaim. Their version of Toddla T and Skream’s Streets So Warm even ended up soundtracking Sky Sports’ Soccer AM.
Behind the decks, the same raw energy translates into chaos of the best kind. Whether together or tearing up clubs on separate continents, their DJ sets are guaranteed Jungle energy and fire. From Canada to Croatia, Boomtown to Outlook, Serial Killaz bring the UK carnival sound with them, heavy, happy, and high-voltage every single time.
Over two decades deep, the Serial Killaz name still stands for everything that made jungle irresistible in the first place, rebellious energy, dancefloor unity, and basslines built to shake the walls.
