Mutebox have been promoting experimental, improvised, electro-acoustic, folk, and some plain weird and just outright unusual music in Essex. Focusing not on a specific style, rather on the good, the challenging and the sublime, Mutebox sets out to put on unique and memorable events, tying together musical threads discovered on our journeys, bringing together great new (and old) music in glorious cacophonic harmony.
I have an hour long mix for the inimitable Solid Steel Radio show (Ninja Tune) on Friday May 15th, featuring such Gems as Minotaur Shock, Nathan Fake, Clark, Boards of Canada and much more.....
The Fujiya & Miyagi single 'Sore Thumb' which features my remix of their album track 'Dishwasher' is out NOW on Full Time Hobby Records (Tunng, The Accidental).
SECONDSMILE "Think the brash intensity of Thursday, the introspective calm of Radiohead, the chaos of At The Drive-In and the sheet technical brilliance of Minus The Bear - this is mesmerising stuff" Metal Hammer myspace. com/secondsmile
WINTERMUTE "A curious combo of At The Drive-In and Interpol, splashed with a bit of Foals-ian mathletics, tight and adventurous, Wintermute are cool." NME myspace. com/wintermute
+ LOVE'S TRU FLAVOUR & SOFT TARGET (DJs) The Wifey residents and promoters are committed bassline-lovers, but like to mix it up with grime, funky, dancehall and booty. They've also played at The End, Electrowerkz, Barden's Boudoir and the Lovebox festival
