John Dadzie, known by his stage name 12th Planet, is an acclaimed American dubstep producer and DJ hailing from Los Angeles, California. Often dubbed the "American Dubstep King," 12th Planet has been instrumental in bringing the dubstep sound to North America. His journey in music began in the late 1990s with drum and bass and under the moniker Infiltrata. His transition to the dubstep arena marked the birth of 12th Planet in the late 2000s, which propelled him to the forefront of a burgeoning musical movement.

Dadzie's contributions to the genre have been marked by a series of high-energy releases that blend gritty basslines with adept melodic constructions. His "Red Bouquet EP" and its leading track "Red Bouquet" showcase his dynamic approach to production, while "King Mathematics" and "At All" further establish his ability to create resonating hits that can dominate both dancefloors and digital platforms alike. In addition to his solo work, 12th Planet is known for his collaborative spirit, as seen in remixes like "Night Rider (12th Planet, AIRGLO Remix)." His "Along the Way EP" and "Astral Projection" are recent offerings that continue to cement his status as a pioneer within the dubstep community, while his "Commencement EP" and its emotionally charged "Commencement (feat. Gracie Van Brunt)" display his range and artistry. With projects like "Supernova: The Remix Package" and "Marine Iguana: The Remixes," 12th Planet keeps influencing the electronic music scene through inventive remixes and unparalleled sound design.
