A power affecting a person, thing, or course of events, especially one that operates without any direct or apparent effort: relaxed under the influence of the music; the influence of television on modern life.

We are extremely happy to announce that July 2008 finally brings the release of Prod's debut album, 'The Artworks Formerly Known As Prints'! It's an incredible debut from this outrageously inventive artist. Devoid of the usual traits and schematic formulas of today's, post-literate pop formulas, Prod dares to challenge the unknown, creating a raw, edgy but freakishly smooth blend of hybridized musical conventions. He takes the musical ethos of his past, and distorts it for the present, putting together an album of astounding jazz-soaked, glitched out neo-soul beats, all tightly wound and interlinked within in his salad day influences of old school jungle, techno and electronica.
'deeply eccentric and wonderful producer' (Mary Anne Hobbs - Radio 1)
'His is a genuinely different sound in the sea of mediocrity that is the current dance scene' (Jay Sherman - Don't Panic)
'The Artwork Formerly Known As Prints' is a unique document of cross breeding genres to birth a hybrid that healthily jams as much as it squelches' (Wordmaster - 3 Bar Fire)
'I'm convinced that this young man is making some of the most interesting and exciting new music to come out of Leeds for quite some time' (Greg Elliot - Sandman)
'this is a really promising debut album and one that at the moment is the best kept secret in Leeds' 8/10 (Kevin Trotter - The Best Surrender)
'Prod is either a vastly superior alien being or a secret collaborative project involving Goldie, Prince and Aphex Twin.... Someday in the not-too-distant future, a google search on "prod" will yield uncountable references to this just-getting-started talent' (GirlSonic - Girlsonic.com)
Limited edition copies of 'The Artworks Formerly Known As Prints' are also available HERE, beautifully packaged as a CD. They're currently on sale for a bargain price of £10!
Get your copy here via Paypal while they're hot! This CD is also available in most independent UK record shops.

Soul Crunk is the one for me, ever so UK...nice angle on the vocals over these beats, I hope it catches some peoples ears 7/10 (Domu – Treble O/Deviation/Various – UK)

Mancini & The Creepers are deep into their music, bringing a Parliament-Funkadelic reminiscent choruses to the party. It works. Definitely playlist material. (Dave Watts -The Ear Conditioning Radio Show)
Dope, really like this. (Matthieu Schryer – KCRW/Various – LA)
Your tunes are sounding ace, especially KMYB. The irony is, You are the bitch, bitch.
Nice one on getting a Glade spot. I once headlined Glade festival, but when I got there it turns out I was booked for Glade Air Fresheners Annual General Meeting (Alpine fresh division). Still the best gig I ever did though, those shareholders knew how to party. I've missed you - come jam with spiders/nibiru sometime.

Thanks so much for finding me! I'm honored that you like my music!! :)
As a DIY composer/arranger (no label backing), I'll be relying on Friends like you to "put me on the map," so please SPREAD THE WORD! Better yet, ADD one of my tracks!! I'll be releasing my debut CD next year and I'd really appreciate the support. ;)
hiya prodster, i might well be down the glade meself this year, will look forward to seein you twisting the heads and lets have a jar eh brudda... nice work!
Having released a couple of tuneful albums with theAudiologist and Soni Jimm since my last LP, "Fear of Mathematics", Section 27 Netlabel brings you "Wrpdata”, containing 14 tracks full of chunky, breathy and some would even say pleasantly broken breaks, some good-time-mind-fuck glitch, a few (thankfully blissful) orchestrated mixes featuring the talents of Pinklogik and theAudiologist (also acting as co-producer on this release) respectively, and ends sweetly with some beautiful spoken word poetry by the lovely aussie Cindel Waddington.
A delight on the sensory organs from start to finish, "Wrpdata" is available now for *free* download. Licensed by Creative Commons.
