Black Sun Empire is the stage name of a team of Dutch disc jockeys and jungle music (mostly darkstep and neurofunk) producers Rene Verdult and brothers Milan and Micha Heyboer.

Based out of Utrecht, Netherlands, they started making jungle in 1995 when they turned to the likes of artists such as Photek, LTJ Bukem, and Ed Rush. Before that they enjoyed techno and breaks. After having a few releases on smaller record labels, they managed to get the attention of bigger producers like Trace, currently known for his DSCI4 label. At the moment they have three labels of their own; Black Sun Empire Recordings, oBSEssions and Shadows of the Empire.

They also recently lent one of their tracks ("Arrakis") to the E³ 2006 trailer of the game EVE Online titled "No Other Destiny".
