Born in St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia,[1] at the start of his career he was singing in a local alternative rock and rapcore band initially known as Twitch, which would later change its name to N.O.N (Never or Now).

[4] During the COVID-19 pandemic Dub FX moved from Victoria, Australia to Lisbon, Portugal with his wife Sahida, and two daughters Sahara and Kalila.

To his travels also joined his friend and manager CAde, who is on tracks with Stanford like: "No rest for the wicked", "Supernova Pilot", "Easy", "Fresh" and others... Two songs from Everythinks a Ripple, "Flow", and "Wandering Love", feature a street saxophonist named Mr. Woodnote, who also uses similar looping techniques as Dub FX, using a saxophone.

[8] [citation needed] Dub FX is also part of the dubstep act Kila Mega Giga Tera, the other half being Glade Kettle (Distro)(aka Sirius).

[citation needed] Dub FX is completely independent, using only live performance, word of mouth, internet social networking, and a number of easily accessible free samples.

[citation needed] Dub FX's lyrics address both general world events and contemporary angst, while suggesting individual-based revolution through self-determination and engagement.

He also addresses issues of social importance, the most notable example being the song Society's Gates, loosely based on the life of the philosopher Socrates.
