Jasper Byrne

Jasper Byrne is a British video games developer who made his name as a drum and bass producer, better known as Sonic. He also worked under the alias of Accidental Heroes along with his long-time collaborative partner, Silver (aka Dean Fletcher). As well as producing for some of the most prominent drum and bass record labels (including Virus Recordings, Metalheadz and Hospital Records), he also had his own label, Space Recordings.
