InContext
Where are you from?
Northamptonshire, UK
What upcoming projects are in the works?
I have recently polished off the five tracks for my EP. Aside from that I have a remix of Dubba Jonny’s huge track “Home” coming along nicely and I have started working on a remix of Joman’s track “Bounce Castle” as well.
Any production tips for new producers?
From my own experience I can say that Reason is a great piece of software for people starting out, It has a very user friendly interface and you can easily bridge over to Logic or Cubase by rewiring. In general I would say you need good patience and enough free time, keep checking your mixes against other artists and constantly scrutinize your own production to make sure you are always improving.
What’s one of your favorite plug ins or pieces of hardware to use in your production?
Its going to have to be Massive by Native Instruments, its a brilliant synth for thick bass-lines and lead synths. Another favorite is the Izotope Ozone plug-in, its a nice mastering plug-in with a decent Limiter that I use a lot.
What’s your favorite track at the moment?
Empire Of The Sun – We Are The People (Sub Focus Remix). Nice bass-line, nice drums, can’t go wrong really.
What’s your favorite artist at the moment?
Definitely Shock One, still love his track “Polygon”.
What / when is your next release?
My EP which is due to drop on the 19th of May [on Velcro City Records] .
How did you get into producing?
With my dad being a pretty keen musician my home has always been littered with various instruments and recording equipment. I remember when I was around fifteen recording tracks with my next door neighbor on an old Tascam. I started taking it more seriously in my second year of university. With one of my flat mates being a drum & bass head it doesn’t surprise me that I have ended up here.
If you could work with any one artist, who would it be?
Shock One, he can pack some serious energy into his tracks.
What instruments do you play?
I have played bass and guitar for around eight years, but I would really like to start playing piano.
What is your favorite meal and who makes it for you?
My other half Jessica makes a pretty mean Chilli Bake.
What do you like to do in your free time?
Being in good company with good conversation and good food, getting the acoustic out and attempting to play some Andy McKee and learning interesting science facts.
Is there anything that you would like to say to your fans or the people who support your music?
A big thanks to everyone for their continued support, especially to Maris and Luke who run two of the biggest drum & bass channels on youtube.
