Who is Grant Nelson?

Grant Nelson, also known as Wishdokta, Bump & Flex and N'n'G, is an English DJ, remixer and record producer.

Nelson is heralded as one of the godfathers of UK garage due to his numerous club hits on his Nice 'n' Ripe record label in the early 1990s. It was his sound along with a few others that gave birth to the then known as 'Sunday Scene' which evolved into UK garage.

He also produced under the name Wishdokta from 1990-1993 when he was producing breakbeat hardcore/drum and bass for the legendary London label Kickin Records.

In 1993, Wishdokta teamed up with DJ Vibes and together they delivered some of happy hardcore's biggest anthems on Vibes' Asylum Music Inc. and other labels including Happy Trax.

In 1997, Nelson started using the alter-ego Bump & Flex and began to produce UK 2-step. He delivered some of the scene's biggest records including "Funk On Ah Roll" by James Brown.

Nelson has always remained a house head since his early Nice 'n' Ripe days and continues to do so to the present with his Swing City Records label that consistently delivers top drawer house music.

Some of the artists Nelson has remixed and worked with include Kelis, Jodeci, Mis-Teeq, Aaliyah, James Brown, The Artful Dodger, Jamiroquai, Lutricia McNeal, Thelma Houston, Another Level, Goldie, Roy Ayers, Guy, Rosie Gaines, Juliet Roberts, Liberty X, Towa Tei, Evelyn 'Champagne' King, Bebel Gilberto, Negrocan, Beverly Knight, The Brand New Heavies, Faithless, Simply Red, Frankie Knuckles and Agnes.
