T Power (born Marc Royal) is an English drum and bass record producer, from Bow, London.[1][2] Originally starting his production career in the UK hardcore scene, he moved into jungle. Wanting to avoid the increasing politics within the scene, he began to produce experimental drum and bass, culminating in the album, The Self Evident Truth of an Intuitive Mind. Following from this, came the next album Waveform. Less accessible, it carried his experimental tracks further into the left field.[3]

Partnering Shy FX, he released the album Long Time Dead,[4][5] and also started a record label named Digital Soundboy.[6]

T Power was half of the band Chocolate Weasel, with Chris Stevens. They released a single "Music for Body Lockers",[7] and then a funk and hip-hop album called Spaghettification in 1998.[8][9]

In 2004, in collaboration with fellow producer Andre Williams, Royal issued a couple of singles billed as Ebony Dubsters.[10]

On 7 March 2009, T Power reincarnated himself as Mr. Sofalumpkins, an electro/breakbeat/techno DJ, doing a live Ableton set at the Hush nightclub in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.[11]
