BIOG:
Youthful Implants usually plays breaks, you know - the tunes with real breakbeats in! He also makes tunes which have been known to include a breakbeat or two. Now signed to several labels all over the world, his sound is more diverse and eclectic than ever before. With a classical music education as a choral scholar in the one of the finest choirs in the world, its safe to say he can hum a tune too. Notorious for aggresive beat programming, firing basslines and a melodic and expressive style his productions have garnered support from DJs everywhere.
32 yr old Alex Virr (aka Youthful Implants) started DJing drum n bass whilst at university in Manchester in 1996. After 2 years representing on the student scene and promoting a night called Beatific he returned to London and began working on a record stall in Camden selling nu skool garage and DnB alongside Ollie Moira of Hardcore Beats. From there he met Clayton from the south london based Trouble on Vinyl / Renegade Hardware studio who offered the opportunity to work for him both as a recording artist and consultant on fledgling breaks label Octagon. The Funkaholics were born with founding members Joe Grey and Tam Cooper (now known as Precision Cuts). An EP and two singles later the Funkaholics were receiving props from Adam Freeland, Tayo and Tipper in the early days of the nu skool breaks scene.
During this time the Funkaholics played sets around London for Chew the Fat, Renegade Hardware at the End and Mass. After an amiable split, the Funkaholcs were disbanded and Precision Cuts were born whilst Alex left London to pursue a career in graphic design. Three years later Alex returned to London in 2002 and soon after hooked up with DJ Jurassik to help mould the Supatronix sound. He now enjoys being partner and resident at the Hoxton based monthly parties with Jurassik and the hugely talented Missmax.
Following guest slots on BreaksFM and NuSkoolBreaks radio and excited by the developing sounds and continuing diversity within the whole spectrum of breakbeat - Youthful Implants' sound now spans a broad musical range from the electro-oriented side of breaks to its more hardcore cousins. A hook up with producer extraordinaire Anti-Science saw new ideas and skills brought to the table in 2007 and these two have been combining Ants' superb mixdown capabilities with some of YIs' older material to produce some brand new forward thinking breaks released on new label Waveshape last year. 2007 also saw Alex release on Sango, Defbox, and NuLogic as his remixing skills gathered demand.
2008 saw Alex signing several original tracks to US label Flextone who have provided a fantastic platform for his more experimental original music. He was also commissioned to do several successful remixes for the label which made it into the top 100 Beatport Breaks chart. This was also the year he teamed up with old friend Ollie (DJ Ollywood) from Hardcore Beats to launch sister label Future Perfect with some fantastic new talent and genre blurring music. Now on the fifth release the label has been championed by some of the scene's most respected DJs and gained critical acclaim in all of the main DJ magazines. Now living in Australia with his wife Tina, he can be found in clubs throughout Melbourne playing a variety of different styles including breaks, tech-funk, house, fidget and baltimore and relishing some properly cold beer.
