Sid Le Rock is Sidney Sheldon Thompson, a Canadian producer from Ontario who relocated to Berlin and operates under multiple aliases including Pan/Tone and Gringo Grinder. Thompson founded two labels, Cereal/Killers and Beachcoma, establishing himself in Berlin's electronic music scene since beginning his recording career in 2013.

His music spans tech house, deep house, and indie dance territories, with 18 releases distributed across labels including Hafendisko, Dantze, Beachcoma, Suruba, and My Favorite Robot Records between 2013 and 2021.
