I am a writer/ record producer and musician. I am one half of electronica band Mooli, and we have just released our debut album which is called' concubine'. I am very proud of the album, and it's been getting great feedback, and support. It's been released on our indie label Mooli Music, and is now available on http://www.tunetribe.com
We put out an Ep, called One Design, which featured 4 tracks, One Design, Save you, Awaken, and Underneath the same sun, and we've been fortunate enough to be on some great compilations , alongside Snow patrol, Bent, Bonobo, William Orbit, Lou Rhodes, A Man Called Adam, Findley Quaye, and tons of others. You can find all our releases online, and also from our website which is http://www.moolimusic.com
Apart from Mooli, I have written and produced for a variety of people including Beverley Knight, Liberty X, and various pop artists, inc X factor singles.
I am a US platinum selling songwriter, with credits on two top 10 albums- one a million seller, and I have written songs featured on number 1 albums in different territories. As a writer, my songs have featured on Timbaland and Stargate albums, and I have written hits in different genres.
I have also played keyboards for people like Eternal, World's Apart Dina Caroll, Double trouble, and an early incarnation of the Brand new Heavies- Diana Brown and the Brothers, when I was involved in the rare groove scene. I worked with the founder of the Duffers Clothing range- Barry k Sharpe. Rare Groove heads will know the track ' The master plan by Diana Brown and Barry K sharpe/ Hot pants. I 'm playing funky keyboards on Hot pants , and yes it's you- a classic rare soul track.
Watch out for a tune called ' wasted' by My Digital Enemy feat Mooli, which I wrote, that's coming out this summer on Universal/ All around the world. There are many videos on You tube, featuring the cream of the club scene, including Paul Oakenfold and Erick Morillo playing the track at clubs around the world, inc pacha in New York.
You can find out more about Mooli from our myspace site which is http://www.myspace.com/mooli. Also, being an online tart, I am at facebook too , as is Mooli. If you want to know anything else - google it, haha.
