Scott Brown is a Glasgow-based Scottish DJ and music producer. Brown makes, and plays, rave music of a variety of genres. Although he is most associated with bouncy techno, his music ranges from happy hardcore, through hardcore trance, to gabber.

He was heavily involved in the evolution of the UK's hardcore techno scene from the early 1990s, in particular introducing the harder-edged sounds of Belgian and Dutch techno to the UK, and taking the Scottish sounds to Europe. A more detailed background of Brown's music style is given at bouncy techno.

Brown had produced music on his own record labels (Evolution Records, Evolution Plus, 23rd Precinct Music, Evolution Gold, Poosh, Screwdriver and Twisted Vinyl), and under a range of monikers including Plus System, and with his band Q-Tex. In particular, his work has featured on Bonkers, to date the best-selling series of hardcore compilations. His most significant tracks are "Technophobia", "Now Is The Time", "Elysium", and "Turn Up The Music". He DJs at rave events in the UK, the Netherlands, and elsewhere.
