C83 (Class of 83) are production partnership Sam Gordon and Jon Guntrip, based in London, UK.

Sam has been producing drum n bass records since he was 18 and first track came out in 1994 under the alias Missing. Further projects included Shoguns Assassins, Secta One and X-Generation with over 15 releases on seminal labels such as 3rd Party, Kemet, Tearin Vinyl, NineBar, Swag and Acid Jazz. Old school Jungle heads will remember the tracks such as "The Box Remix", "Flex & Relax", "Known Around the Hood", "Explicit Lyrics" & "Thr33 Blak Bros".

In 2001 Sam's younger cousin Jon introduced Sam to the nu skool breaks sound and C83 was born...

Both have been keen vinyl collectors since an early age and have crates of early 80's Electro, vintage Chicago House and Garage, UK Hardcore, Jungle, old skool hip hop and of course breakbeat of every flavour. These influences are highly evident in their productions which combine what they feel are some of best elements of all these genres. .
