Groovkilla is the alias of the diverse songwriter/producer Reggie Bishop. Reggie Bishop started his musical career in his teens playing acoustic jazz and fusion bands in Indianapolis, IN..
Groovkilla was formed in the summer of 2004 when Reggie Bishop started the indie label, Spyral Records. Some of his tracks have been published in Future Music and Computer Music magazines and he was a semi-finalist in the Discmakers IMWS Midwest 2005. Groovkilla has also been selected by Ableton as artist rep for their revolutionary audio software Ableton LIVE 5. .
Groovkilla's first cd "Manga" was released in 2004. . "Manga" was inspired by the music of Kraftwerk, the Art of Noise, Basement Jaxx, Prince Paul and the Chemical Brothers. "Groovkilla "Manga" came about because of my love for electronic music and anime. The name "Groovkilla" is a take on "Godzilla". My 50 foot, fire-breathing monster is music. That's why the artwork for the disc is in manga-style. It's an homage to Masamune Shirow." "The tracks on Manga are a hodge-podge of styles-more mainstream electronica and groove-oriented. It's as if you were club-hopping on Washington Blvd. in South Beach."
