SmashBack spent his teenage years in North London training his ears to the evolving sounds of Jungle and House. His love for underground music led to further training in the art of music production, working various jobs to buy music equipment for his bedroom studio. It wasn't until he left school when he got into DJ'n and started a weekly residency at The Green Man pub in London's West End. After this, he studied Music Techology at Uni & spent one of his summer breaks working for the now defunct techno institute Prime Distribution in West London. Whilst at Uni, he co-ran the legendary BULLDOZER night in the seaside town of Scarborough. At the BULLDOZER night SmashBack introduced the North East coast to Grime, Electro & Booty Bass. After moving to Manchester, SmashBack got involved with the beginning stages of the ELECTRODE night. It was this that introduced him to the residents of ALIEN RADIO, who asked him to hop aboard and help co-run their night. ELECTRODE now fills the monthly slot that ALIEN RADIO used to grace. SmashBack co-runs the Bass Gun record label with Paul Blackford, releasing quality bass-heavy electro. He has also finished a new album 'City Parks', OUT NOW.

AUTUMN NEWS

TRACKS:
`````````
I've been busy over the last two months writing three new tracks to be released on BASS GUN and DATA-TRACE records.

Two tracks called 'MISSION TO IRLAM' and 'IVO SHANDOR' are being released on DATA-TRACE records around the end of 2009, as part of an E.P that me & GLOVER are putting together: named after our BRAVE NEW WORLD podcasts. This is the first time that GLOVER's productions will be released - expect to hear some exciting and dark sounds from this top Mancunian talent.

Another track 'BRICK SHITHOUSE' is to be released on BASS GUN in early 2010 on a joint E.P from me and TEUTONIC KABOOM. The E.P includes a track called 'RHUBARB RHUBARB' from TEUTONIC KABOOM, a new TRODE track called 'DEAD LEAVES, and remixes of BRICK SHITHOUSE from PAUL BLACKFORD, FULL SPECTRUM and BENJWAHBEATS.

You can hear MISSION TO IRLAM and BRICK SHITHOUSE on my myspace page:
