Bop

Alexander Dmitriev, known as Bop, is a Russian producer from Sankt-Peterburg who currently operates from Stockport, UK. Active since 1989, he has released music under multiple aliases including THiNk and Myst, while also running his own label. Dmitriev began his electronic music output through Electrobuzz in August 2024, establishing himself as a versatile artist working across multiple electronic genres.

Bop produces microfunk, minimal drum and bass, house, UK garage, and ambient music, with releases on Hospital Records, Time Is Now Records, and Toy Tonics. His drum and bass work focuses on the microfunk subgenre, characterized by intricate programming and minimal arrangements that strip back the genre's typical complexity. The artist's range extends from the high-energy UK garage and bassline productions to ambient compositions, demonstrating technical versatility across tempo ranges from downtempo ambient to fast-paced drum and bass. His association with Hospital Records, a cornerstone label in liquid drum and bass, signals his position within the genre's established network.
