Tipper (real name Dave Tipper) is a British producer and DJ specialising in nu skool breaks, electronica, and trip hop.
Although mostly known in the breakbeat scene, Tipper's output includes strong hints of electro and idm amongst other styles. He is known for his interest in extreme bass frequencies, with his releases often including lengthy subbass test tones at the end. He, and likeminded people from his label Fuel Records, have also engaged in stunts like emptying a swimming pool, covering it with an acoustic canopy and enjoying the bass, or drowning out The Prodigy on the main stage of the V Festival with their car sound systems parked several miles away.
Tipper also records under the pseudonym Crunch with Mike Wallis aka Psi Spy.
