MySpace a place for friends

Spy!

I'm a producer/engineer of UK Hip Hop, UK Garage, UK Dancehall & Urban Pop/R&B.

This is more of a production house/ideas arena than an artist/group (think Neptunes as opposed to N.E.R.D.), so I'm always on the look out for more talent.

Some of the MySpace artists I've already worked with are Ingga, Pseudo and Brando.

The producers who inspire me include:

9th Wonder, Alchemist, Ali Shaheed Mohammed, Arthur Baker, Ashford & Simpson, Augustus Pablo, Bomb Squad, Coxsone Dodd, Curtis Mayfield, D'Angelo, DJ Premier, Erick Sermon, Fatis, Gamble & Huff, Gussie Clarke, Havoc, Hi Tek, Isaac Hayes, J Dilla, Jam & Lewis, James Brown, Just Blaze, King Jammy, Lee Perry, Leon Ware, Leroy Burgess, Leroy Hutson, Main Source, Marvin Gaye, Mann Parish, Mantronik, Marley Marl, Masters At Work, Maurice White, Missy Elliott, Neptunes, Norman Connors, Omar, P.L.O., Pete Rock, Prince Paul, Raphael Saadiq, Rick James, Roni Size, Roy Ayers, Rza, Sly & Robbie, Steelie & Cleavie, Stevie Wonder, Swizz Beats, The Ummah, Timbaland, Wayne Henderson, etc.
