    Alex Burey is a producer, songwriter, mixer & multi-instrumentalist from the outskirts of London. His interest in music began at the age of 7 when Alex found classical piano. Once at school he began producing hip-hop & grime music for local artists. Since then he’s worked from his home studio on all styles of music; hip-hop to folk, classical to dance. Authenticity is a central quality to all the music he produces.

    Alex’s approach to production is collaborative, working with the artist to find the emotional essence of a song and then allowing that to speak out first. He takes inspiration from an older time yet couples this with a modernism that feels fresh and original. Warmth, contrasts in dark & light tones and imperfections are layered throughout his production work.

Sey’s open-door approach to sharing and making music stretches to his work with London Contemporary Orchestra – with CURL the collective he founded with Mica Levi and Brother May – and a regular slot on NTS Radio which offers a portal into his appealingly murky musical world.

But it’s not just collectors at the bar toasting to the melodic sounds. Anyone who grooves to the likes of Slave, Aurra, early Prince, Prelude Records and the like, will get a dose of those groups’ unknown contemporaries – more obscure but equally Funk-worthy.

    Maverick musician and producer Dean Blunt, a London (Hackney), played bass in Graffiti Island prior to making bigger waves with Inga Copeland as Hype Williams. The duo was classified as chillwave and as hypnagogic pop, two terms Blunt rejected. From 2009 through 2012, Hype Williams released a handful of albums and several singles and EPs, where material ranged from lo-fi house to noisy collages with equally whimsical titles. Blunt started releasing solo material in 2011 and quickly built a discography that rivaled the size of his work with Copeland. Among his most notable full-lengths were The Narcissist II (Hippos in Tanks, 2012), The Redeemer (Hippos in Tanks, 2013), and Black Metal (Rough Trade, 2014). The first two of those three saw him dabble in slack singing and songwriting, while the last of the bunch was a full embrace of the form that was even, at times, guitar-based. In 2015, he released an online mini-album titled Babyfather. He then expanded Babyfather into a full-blown project, presented as a trio including DJ Escrow and Gassman D (which, in all likelihood, are alter egos of Blunt himself). Following two self-released mixtapes, Hyperdub issued Babyfather’s single “Meditation” (co-produced by Arca) and full-length BBF Hosted by DJ Escrow in 2016.

    Karl “ Dice Raw” Jenkins is a mainstay of the Philadelphia Hip-Hop Scene, and most commonly associated over the years as a principal songwriter/collaborator /producer for The Roots.

    At the young age of 15, the legendary Roots crew first took Dice Raw under their umbrella, when their production member, Kelo, first discovered him at a local talent show. Little did they know, Dice had already begun his music industry career at age 13, when he worked in California for New Edition offshoot, Bell Biv Devoe. Dice Raw’s debut with the band came on their classic, “The Lesson, Pt. 1”, and soon after, he made a name for himself with cameos on “Episodes” and “Adrenaline”, where his hard-hitting style complemented the heady rhymes of Roots leader, Black Thought. Dice Raw has made several guest appearances on several mixtapes. He made an appearance in fellow band member and beatboxer Scratch’s first solo album, Embodiment of Instrumentation.

    In 2000, Dice Raw released his solo debut album, Reclaiming the Dead, on MCA Records. He also recorded vocals for the entrance theme of WWE superstar, Kung Fu Naki. The track is titled “Kung Fu San”, and samples Carl Douglas’ Kung Fu Fighting, available on Voices: WWE The Music Vol. 9. In 2011, Dice Raw co-wrote, rapped, and sang on several tracks of The Roots acclaimed Undun album, including the celebrated “Lighthouse”, “Make My” featuring Big K.R.I.T., and “One Time”, featuring Phonte.

    Additionally, Dice Raw has been in the studio working on his own material. In May 2010, he released his first solo single in 10 years entitled “100” off of his 3-part solo project, The Greatest Rapper Never. The single is a digital release and was made available on iTunes. In August 2012, Dice Raw offered the fans a sampler of sounds to come with his well-received The Greatest Rapper Never: The Mixtapes Vol. 1, including a feature from Raw Life artist, Rone, and 13 tracks of Dice’s diverse songwriting and rap flows. He is now working on part 2 of the The Greatest Rapper Never trilogy, set for release in Fall 2012 and featuring Black Thought, Raheem DeVaughn, and more.

    Dice Raw was also part of the now-defunct group, Nouveau Riche, along with the Philadelphia Hip-Hop collaborative, The Money-Making Jam Boys. He continues to expand his touch on new music through his label, Raw Life Records. Under Raw Life, he is developing the new generation of the Philadelphia/Roots dynasty via artists such as Rone, Mazon, and Yazz The Greatest. He is currently expanding his talents into Hip-Hop theater and web/TV-based, multimedia content.

     

    In 2014, Dice Raw has taken on the cause of Black male incarceration in America with his magnum opus, “Jimmy’s Back” – [iTunes link]. The highly acclaimed concept album inspired by New York Times bestselling book “The New Jim Crow” is a lyrical odyssey through the plight of the prison system, told musically by Dice Raw and a cadre of excellent MC ex-felons. Most recently, the album debuted as the stage play “The Last Jimmy” at Philadelphia’s coveted Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts. He also has plans to release a book in the near future, and was an instrumental contributor to The Roots’ 2014 album, “And Then You Shoot Your Cousin”, released in May 2014.

    Nearly three years after the release of his debut album ‘Luck Shiner’, Gold Panda announces his second album ‘Half Of Where You Live’, released on his own NOTOWN Recordings (and Ghostly International in America). The intervening period saw Gold Panda touring the world multiple times around and absorbing influences and probing potential new avenues of creative exploration on a handful of interim releases, leading to what feels like the definitive studio return of the Essex-born producer. It was, of course, ‘Lucky Shiner’ that propelled the unassuming south-easterner into a world of ever changing territories and accelerated life experiences. The blog buzz that surrounded portentous early EPs like ‘Quitter’s Raga’, ‘Miyamae’ and ‘You’ spilt over with his debut LP, a record that burst out from the bedroom and onto the dance floor with its wonky beats, chopped up samples and tech-flecked melodies.

    A graduate of Berklee College of Music, the music of Jens Kuross occupies a rare space in the world with his particular way of melding evocative lyrics and dreamy arrangements with introspective, yet sublime songwriting. In the last two years, the multi-talented singer-songwriter has released a string of hypnotic releases, most recently his acclaimed EP “Art! at the expense of mental health, Vol. 2”, which was released in October 2018 and served as the second instalment of his multi-faceted ‘Art! at the expense of mental health’ project.
    Live, Jens has performed across the world, including headline dates at Omeara and Servant Jazz Quarters in London, and has supported Bonobo, Rhye, Go Go Penguin and RY X, who he also performs with as an active member of The Acid alongside Adam Freeland and Steve Nalepa.
    More details on Jens’ debut album will be coming soon. For now, Jens has said the following about the upcoming record, “How are you supposed to sardonically reject social media driven, style obsessed, scenester music culture when a penchant for sincere song-writing and a reluctantly held Instagram account are your only tools? – I haven’t a clue. But I think, among other things, this record is a work trying to reconcile that contradiction whilst bemoaning the digital revolution for reducing all us fair-weather contrarians to hypocrites.”

    The first sound on ‘Immunity’ (Domino Records 2013) is that of a key turning, unlocking the door into Jon Hopkins’ East London studio. It’s followed by the noise of the door slamming, then footsteps, and then finally the crisp, clipping rhythms and pulsating bass of ‘We Disappear’ emerge, signposting the most club-friendly music Hopkins’ has made to date. So begins a confident, dramatic record defined by this acute sense of physicality and place; a bold statement after the quiet, intimate ‘Diamond Mine’, his Mercury-nominated 2011 collaboration with King Creosote.

    Until now, Jon Hopkins had been an elusive character, known to most as an expert producer, Ivor Novello-nominated composer of film scores, remixer and long term collaborator of Brian Eno and Coldplay. Yet as Hopkins freely admits, the fact that his solo albums to date (‘Opalescent’, 2001; ‘Contact Note’,2004; ‘Insides’, 2009) had been rather overshadowed by his work with others meant that he was able to quietly develop his own identity, style and sound.

    The result being a unique, critically lauded piece of modern music which brought euphoria to venues across the globe in 2014 with sold out stunning audio-visual performances.

    Lynks

    Posted on 24 May 2022

    By L’s own admission, Lynks began life as a comedy act. “I mean, I had a song called ‘How to Make a Béchamel Sauce in 10 Steps (With Pictures)’. I wasn’t taking it too seriously.” It’s all the more remarkable, then, that he’s gone on to become one of queer pop’s most potent forces.

    By L’s own admission, Lynks began life as a comedy act. “I mean, I had a song called ‘How to Make a Béchamel Sauce in 10 Steps (With Pictures)’. I wasn’t taking it too seriously.” It’s all the more remarkable, then, that he’s gone on to become one of queer pop’s most potent forces. Instantly recognisable thanks to his self-made costumes – that he’s described as making him a ‘masked drag monster’, while NME went for ‘alt-pop gimp’ – his taste for thumping beats, stylised dance numbers and lurid strobe lighting have made the Lynks live experience an unforgettable one, and marked him out as one of the scene’s most unfailingly entertaining performers.

    By the time he released his second EP, Smash Hits Vol. 2, though, Lynks realised he had more to offer. ‘Str8 Acting’ quickly became his biggest hit – “the one song I would play to people if they wanted to know what Lynks was about” – and beneath its skittering beat and wonky electronics is a searingly witty takedown of the fetishisation of heterosexuality in the gay community, delivered in a brilliantly deadpan manner. “That was the first time I’d tried to write a song that was in any way personal,” he recalls. “Why do we have this obsession with being straight acting? And I found, when I started playing it live, that it was really satisfying and cathartic. I was like, “fuck yeah! This is something I believe in!”

    It was a revelatory moment. “When I started out, it wasn’t that my songs were tongue-in-cheek – I mean, my tongue was through my cheek. But I started to realise that being comedic weirdly allows you to bare a bit more of your soul than with traditional lyrics, because they can become a bit flowery and cliche really easily. Being tongue-in-cheek lets you be pretty truthful and comment on bigger issues. You can use it to dig deeper.”

    That was the mindset as he put together this third EP, MEN. It remains quintessentially Lynks, with all three tracks remaining gloriously in-your-face electro-pop bangers, but as the title suggests, he’s using them as vehicles to explore his relationship with masculinity. Lead single ‘Silly Boy’ continues in the same riotously excoriating vein as ‘Str8 Acting’, and was inspired in part by his experiences on tour supporting Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes. “That made me realise how important it is to embrace a punk ethos in a live show. There’s a lot of power in queer anger, and I rarely see that explored much. Gay men’s anger is characterised as being funny somehow – like sassy or bitchy. But there’s something about queer rage that I love.”

    And yet, at the centre of Lynks is an exploration of queer vulnerability, something that’s become increasingly important to him as the project has morphed from the cabaret act it began as to the queercore behemoth it is today. “It’s great that we’re at a point in time where we have queer people onstage who are incredibly proud, telling the world that we’re fabulous and we’re slaying, but I want to speak more to the fact that the world messes us up quite a bit, and we have problems too, because it’s very difficult growing up queer. I think we can find power by embracing that vulnerability, and I’m enjoying flying the flag for that.”

    Moon Bounce is mutant pop pioneer and songwriter, Corey Regensburg. Taking cues from dance music, R&B, and even the rhythmic lurch of metal, his output combines soulful vocals with crafty percussion and hyper-controlled synthesis. Moon Bounce is almost always obsessed with groove, occasionally on the verge of falling apart.
    Gaining notoriety from a slew of EPs, including 2014’s acclaimed Dress Rehearsal – the initial release from his Grind Select label — Regensburg’s ambitious compositions and cutting, self-referential lyrical content struck a chord with those sick of the sterile and predictable wave of producers hitting Soundcloud. The music video for lead single “Shake” was nominated for The Berlin Music Video Awards, its depiction of a “puppet bloodbath” a jarring piece of black comedy.
    Releasing a series of singles and EPs on Ryan Hemsworth’s Secret Songs, Activia Benz, Moving Castle and even a collaboration with the legendary The Bloody Beetroots on Dim Mak, Moon Bounce’s mutant pop had found its footing. Shows with Rhye, Slow Magic and Prince Rama affirmed Regensburg’s versatility as a fiercely engaging performer.
    Moon Bounce’s first full-length LP, Clean House, returning to his Grind Select label, showcases the most exposed Regensburg’s songwriting has ever been. Songs like “Drugs” and “Empty Hole” put his voice more prominently in the forefront, as he reconciles serious relationships in his life with relatable neuroses. His most pristine sounding work, the record could not have been made by anyone but Regensburg, the obtuse rhythms, infectious melodies, twists and turns all integral parts of the Moon Bounce universe.
    With his recent signing to Domino Publishing and a collection of concise and freaky new material on the horizon, you can expect anything but the expected.

    After several releases on art-house electronic labels  as VISUALS (Nicolas Jaar’s Other People, Bruno Pronsato’s The Song Says), in 2019 Fox dropped the pseudonymous handle to release his 2019 LP Shock By Shock under his own name.  Taking cues from David Bowie’s Young Americans and Shuggie Otis’ classic Inspiration Information, Fox’s debut self-titled album is a ‘psychedellic cross country road trip through the mind’.  

    After a stint writing new material in Mexico City, Andrew Fox returned to the music scene in 2020 with “Only Now” – an uplifiting, cosmic fusion of his dancefloor days in Europe as VISUALS, and the widescreen production and songwriting flourish of Shock By Shock, released by Brooklyn based label House of Feelings.

    As a writer, he contributed to Liam Gallagher’s (Oasis) 2017 hit “Wall of Glass”, which became the top selling vinyl single in the UK.  He has worked with various artists as a producer and mixer, including Innov Gnawa, Lights Flourescent, and Ang Low.  As an instrumentalist, Fox tours internationally with The Dave Harrington Group.
