Heartless Crew is a British UK garage sound system from London consisting of three members MC’s Bushkin, Mighty Moe and DJ Fonti. Mighty Moe started out as a Hip Hop DJ. His parents are from the Middle-East. Bushkin and Fonti have West-Indian backgrounds.

It was established in 1992 when the trio met at Holloway Boys School. Their inspiration was taken from the likes of Buju Banton, R Kelly, Shabba, Det and Brockie. They started off playing playing house parties and small clubs, moving through to a residency at Chimes night club in Hackney in 1996.

By 1998 they had joined pirate station Mission 90.6 FM pioneering a mix of R&B, hip-hop, jungle and dancehall derived sounds, taking its cues straight from the Jamaican sound system tradition while adding fresh and modern elements from UK garage. In 2002 they signed to BBC 1Xtra, where they presented their Sunday evening 2-hour slot. They also released a debut compilation album Heartless Crew presents Crisp Biscuit, closely followed by debut single The Heartless Theme aka the Superglue Riddim. They left 1Xtra in 2006 and can now be found on www.phatbeats.net every Sunday from 9-11pm.
