Part man, part machine, part cockatiel, Cage & Aviary take flights of fancy whenever they can. Jamie Paton is a DJ, a one-finger keyboardist, and a pot-tickler. Nigel of Bermondsey is a musician, South London’s finest oscillator, and a dedicated dabbler. Together they are winners of the cosmic lottery.
Having put out releases to mini acclaim on the ltd editions that are Dissident Distribution, they are now set to spread their wings with new ventures lined up for Paris-based Astro Lab Recordings, London's Tiny Sticks, and NYC's mighty DFA. Also underway is a series of ltd remix 12s on their own ‘The Walls Have Ears’ imprint - starting with Bow Mods - Country Girls, released at the end of November on vinyl.
